Summary

A recent global study revealed an unsettling statistic: fewer than one-third of people feel confident they'll live as well – or better – in retirement than they did while working. That's a big drop in optimism, and a spike in retirement anxiety. So is this just fear talking… or is retirement actually harder now? On this episode of Wealth Creator Radio, Certified Financial Planner Eric Heckman unpacks why retirement feels more uncertain today, and what it really takes to build confidence, clarity, and long-term financial independence.
