Chasing a “magic number” for retirement could be leading you in the wrong direction. In this episode, Jim Fox challenges the idea that everyone needs a specific dollar amount to retire and explains why income—not a lump sum—should be considered in driving your plan. Through real-life examples, he highlights how fear and confusion can derail retirement plans, even for well-prepared retirees. The conversation focuses on simplifying the math, aligning your strategy with your lifestyle, and understanding what your savings can realistically support.
