    2025/06/25

    💬 Show Notes


    This week on the Retirement Answer Man show, we kick things off with a couple of Rockin’ Retirement in the Wild stories from listeners living out their retirement dreams. Then we dive into a mini case study from a listener recently laid off who’s wondering if early retirement is on the table, we’ll walk through the numbers and stress test his plan. We wrap up our month of travel talk with a fun chat with Chris and Cathy about their retirement adventures and how they’re making the most of their freedom to explore.


    OUTLINE OF THIS EPISODE OF THE RETIREMENT ANSWER MAN

    • (00:00) In this episode, we wrap up our travel reflections and explore a listener's question about the pros and cons of retiring at age 59.
    • (01:40) Looking ahead, July will feature 'Best of' episodes of the Retirement Answer Man podcast and August will focus on listener questions.


    ROCKIN’ RETIREMENT IN THE WILD

    • (02:50) Rock Retirement Club member, Pete, has a podcast called Retiring with Enough and that podcast just hit episode 150.

    • (13:35) We have to make some assumptions about investment and will use software to simulate different scenarios.
    • (17:00) Let’s look at the results- a feasible plan is not necessarily resilient.
    • (19:40) Let’s do some basic stress testing to see how your plan holds up when life throws curveballs.


    TRAVEL STORIES WITH CHRIS AND CATHY

    • (24:52) Two recent retirees, Chris and Cathy, have focused on domestic travel now that work is out of the way.
    • (29:10) Roger: What was one moment that stood out from your entire trip that stands out for each of you?

    • (34:55) Chris and Cathy discuss how they will approach travel in retirement.
    • (36:17) Roger: Over a twelve month period, what percentage of time do you travel? And what is the pull to travel so much?
    • (39:36) Roger: Do you think this three months a year travel cycle is a season or do you think this is a new identity as explorers?
    • (42:05) Roger: What tips or suggestions would you give to others who have never traveled internationally or have never planned a big road trip?
    • (46:55) Roger: What is it internally that travel you feel adds to your life?


    SMART SPRINT

    • (48:19) In the next 7 days, confirm that you have at least two years of safe assets, cash or short-term reserves, to cover your lifestyle expenses not covered by income. Even if your plan looks feasible on paper, test its resiliency. Would it hold up if the market took a hit tomorrow?


    BONUS

    • (48:55) Now that we’ve finished my grandfather’s journal, to end the show I will share things I’m geeking out on. Today: electric bikes.
