The first year of retirement can shape everything that comes after it. In this episode, Jon Hicks explains why early retirement spending habits often swing to extremes—and how both overspending and underspending can create long‑term challenges. Using real‑life examples, the conversation explores why traditional “budgets” fall short in retirement, how spending plans differ, and why flexibility matters as life changes. The episode highlights the importance of balancing income needs, lifestyle goals, and timing decisions to avoid common missteps that retirees don’t always see coming.
