    30. Why Retirement Is Emotional — Not Just Financial

    In this special lesson of Retirement Income School™, Dr. Amanda shares a more personal side of her journey and explains why retirement planning is about more than numbers on a spreadsheet.

    From being a single-mom in grad school with financial stress, to helping her mom navigate retirement after losing her father, Dr. Amanda reveals how those experiences shaped her inspiration for retirement income planning and safe money strategies. You’ll learn why even retirees with millions saved often feel anxious, what truly creates peace of mind in retirement, and why guaranteed income can change how retirement feels.

    This episode connects real-life experience with powerful research showing that retirement confidence is built on certainty, income, and trust — not just asset size.

    If you’ve ever wondered why retirement still feels stressful even when “the math works,” this lesson is for you.

Together, they break down the critical retirement tax traps that catch most retirees off guard — including why the Retirement Savings Time Bomb is ticking louder, how smart Roth conversions can dramatically reduce future tax bills, the RMD chain reaction that can push retirees into higher brackets, and the costly Widow’s Penalty that can blindside surviving spouses. They also explore how safe-money tools — such as annuities, whole life insurance, and Roth-friendly strategies — help people protect their wealth, create guaranteed lifetime income, and make their money last.This is one of the most important “classes” you’ll ever take on how to keep more of the money you’ve saved for retirement.
