In this episode of The Wealth Guide Podcast, host Malissa Vourakis sits down once again with the Ryker Capital team — Jack Oineza, Ricky Regmi, and Dean Desoukey — to tackle the question everyone asks but few can answer clearly: what does it really take to retire on $100,000 a year?

They unpack the 4% rule in plain English (why $2.5 million can fund a $100k income), the “bucket” approach to balance debt, investing, and lifestyle, and the power of small, regular super contributions through compounding and dollar-cost averaging. You’ll hear how geo-arbitrage can stretch your money by spending part of the year in lower-cost countries, why Centrelink can be a force multiplier in retirement, and how to set different risk settings as you move through your golden, silver, and legacy years.

Whether you are 21 and starting with $50 a week or in your 50s making up ground, the team shows you how to reverse-engineer a six-figure retirement, avoid common traps, and build a portfolio that can weather market dips without panic selling. If you want a practical, human guide to turning the $100k dream into a plan, this episode is for you.
