Maybe it's $1 million. Maybe $2 million. Maybe $5 million or more. And then the account crosses the line, the headlines turn ugly, and the worry is still there. A recent Wall Street Journal headline put it bluntly: \"Even Rich Retirees Fear Outliving Their Money.\" In this episode, I'm sharing new research from Fidelity that helps explain why having \"enough\" so often still doesn't feel like enough. I'm also sharing the four things I consistently see in retirees who feel genuinely secure. Here's what you'll learn: → The retirement planning factor that more than doubles confidence → A cognitive concept that explains why retirement anxiety has very little to do with your account balance → The question many well-prepared retirees still can't answer — and why ignoring it can be so costly Not one of the four pillars has anything to do with the size of your portfolio. Which raises the real question: what's actually keeping wealthy retirees up at night? *** 📆 BOOK A CALL WITH OUR TEAM: Your retirement involves complex, interconnected decisions—taxes, income, healthcare, estate planning, investments.
