You asked, and we listened. In this episode of Coffee with Your Retirement Coach, we tackle one of the most common questions we get: "I’m 58 and have $2.4 million saved. Can I retire?" But as you'll hear, it’s not just about the number on the page. We dive deep into what that figure could mean for your income, lifestyle, taxes, healthcare, and overall retirement vision.

Join us as we break down the math behind the 4% rule and explore the often-overlooked factors that make or break a retirement plan—things like purpose, timing, Social Security strategy, and where and how you want to live. Plus, we share a real-life success story of a couple who made their beachside retirement dreams a reality.
