Episode 239 of our Retire With Style podcast is out now! In this week's episode of Retire with Style, Alex and I discuss why the right asset allocation isn't determined by your age, it should be determined by your retirement plan. If your essential expenses are already covered by reliable income sources like Social Security or a pension, you may have more flexibility to invest for long-term growth than traditional rules of thumb suggest.
We also explore the difference between risk capacity and risk tolerance, explain why your funded ratio matters when deciding how much investment risk to take, discuss when claiming Social Security early might (or might not) make sense, and compare TIPS ladders, MYGAs, and income annuities for creating reliable retirement income.
As always, the goal isn't to find one strategy that works for everyone. It's to understand which approach best fits your personal retirement situation. Listen now to learn more.
