    There’s no shortage of financial advice out there, and unfortunately, not all of it is good. Some of the most damaging retirement mistakes don’t come from reckless behavior, but from ideas that sound reasonable and get repeated often enough to feel true. Today, we’re busting some of the most common retirement planning myths and explaining why believing them can quietly derail an otherwise solid plan.

    Here’s what we discuss in today’s show:

    📄 Why bigger financial plans aren’t better

    🏠 The limits of “just having a will”

    💍 The real income needs of a surviving spouse

    📉 Why stopping spending in a downturn doesn’t work

    💰 Common myths around Social Security and taxes
