About this listen

The episode continues the discussion on how to live in retirement on dividends, focusing on the difference between funding retirement and living in retirement. The advisors explain their two-account approach: a “paycheck account” that funds lifestyle entirely from dividends, and a “bonus/growth account” where dividends are reinvested to fuel long-term income increases. They emphasize the dangers of overspending principal—especially large, repeated withdrawals—which can undermine future income, security, and financial freedom. Much of the conversation explores the emotional side of retirement spending, including fear, guilt, lifestyle expectations, and the need for honest budgeting. Ultimately, they encourage retirees to know their numbers, build a simple plan, stick to guardrails, and understand how spending choices impact long-term freedom.
