Summary
Is age 65 still the right retirement age, or has that idea become outdated? In this episode of the Wise Money Show, we break down the key retirement milestones like 55, 59.5, 62, 65, 67, and 70 and explain how Medicare, Social Security, 401(k) access, and healthcare costs all impact your decision. More importantly, we walk through the five factors that truly determine when you can retire with confidence.
