About this listen

Winter storms have a way of revealing weak spots, just like life’s storms bring financial surprises in retirement. In this episode, Don uses recent winter weather events as a backdrop to highlight the expenses and risks that often catch retirees off guard. The focus isn’t on panic, but preparation, and planning ahead for when life’s storms hit.

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:

❄️ Financial Storms: Why unexpected costs hit harder in retirement

🧰 Storm Preparation: Planning before problems appear

🔌 Backup Systems: Home generators as a planning metaphor

🧾 Expense Pressure: Healthcare and insurance costs adding up

🏠 Insurance Coverage: Knowing what policies you actually need

🛡️ Long-Term Care: Planning for one of retirement’s biggest risks
