Most investors know they pay fees—but few realize just how much those fees may be costing them over time.

In this episode of Optimize Your Retirement, Daniel and Raz share the story of a retiree who discovered he was paying more than 3% annually in investment fees on a variable annuity that had grown to $1 million. They explain how those fees can quietly erode retirement savings, why reviewing older financial products is so important, and how today's retirement income solutions may offer significantly different benefits than those available years ago.

The conversation also explores the differences between variable and fixed annuities, guaranteed lifetime income options, joint lifetime income for spouses, and why every retirement plan deserves periodic reviews as financial products and personal circumstances evolve.

If it's been years since you've reviewed your investments, this episode offers valuable insights into making sure your retirement strategy is still working as hard as you are.
