About this listen

You’ve spent 40 years saving, but are you ready to spend? In this video, I challenge the "Saver's Trap" and introduce the M.A.D.E. Framework (Meaning, Accomplishment, Difference, Experiences)—a strategy designed to help you stop hoarding cash and start maximizing your life energy.

Conventional wisdom says to preserve your principal at all costs. But relying on "safe withdrawal rates" often leads to a regret-filled life where you run out of health before you run out of wealth. We break down the math of the "Go-Go" vs. "No-Go" years, why your 401k needs a "Difference" strategy, and how to spend without fear of running out.
