  • How to Build Reliable Retirement Income (Without the “Pie Chart” Guesswork) | Episode 148
    2026/02/28
    If you’re nearing retirement, the biggest question is simple: Where will your paycheck come from—and how long will it last? In this episode of Safer Retirement Radio, Bradley Geddes, CFP(R) breaks down practical retirement income tools—and why many retirees don’t realize the weaknesses of the “pie chart” approach until a market downturn hits. You’ll learn: How an income plan differs from a 401(k) or IRA (tools vs. a plan) The difference between bond ladders/CD ladders and bond funds Why interest rates and bond values move in opposite directions—and why that matters for retirement income How using multiple income sources can help reduce market volatility risk Why Decker Retirement Planning's approach focuses on time horizons and avoiding “drawing from a fluctuating account” Want more retirement education resources?

  • When a Spouse Passes: Social Security, Taxes, Medicare, and Estate Planning Moves | Episode 147
    2026/02/15
    When a spouse passes away, the emotional toll is obvious—but the financial “whammies” can be just as disruptive: a lower Social Security benefit may disappear, tax filing status changes, Medicare decisions shift, and beneficiary and estate documents need immediate attention. In this episode of Safer Retirement Radio, Brian Decker and Marc Knauss, CFP(R) break down the practical steps families should understand before a loss happens, and the priorities to address in the first 30–90 days afterward. They cover how survivor benefits work, why taxes often rise for the surviving spouse, and how proactive planning can reduce administrative headaches and costly mistakes. Key topics discussed: Survivor Social Security basics: notify promptly, benefit coordination, and timing considerations Tax impact after a spouse’s death: filing status changes and why brackets can tighten Medicare and supplemental plan review after becoming widowed Account consolidation, beneficiary updates, and estate document cleanup (trust, POA, health directive) Risks of scams and pressure tactics after an obituary posts Real estate and tax planning concepts like step-up in basis Advanced planning themes discussed on the show: trusts, legacy design, and rental real estate tax strategies If you’re within 5–10 years of retirement (or already retired), this episode is a reminder that a written income plan and coordinated strategy can help protect the surviving spouse and reduce “decision pressure” during grief.

  • How to Know If You’re Ready to Retire: The 6 Key Checkpoints (Income, Taxes, Risk, and Stress-Testing) | Episode 146
    2026/02/07
    How do you really know if you’re ready to retire—before you turn in your notice? In this episode of Safer Retirement Radio, Brian Decker and Arrin Wray break down the six key checkpoints they use to help families move from guesswork to clarity, including the two questions that matter most: How much can you safely draw each month? How do you protect that income when markets change? You’ll learn how Decker Retirement Planning approaches retirement with a math-based distribution plan that coordinates income sources (Social Security, pensions, rental income, and portfolio withdrawals), prioritizes tax efficiency, and helps reduce the risks that can derail retirement—especially in volatile markets. In this episode, we cover: The 6 key points of a retirement plan: plan, tax minimization, risk reduction, portfolio optimization, income optimization, and fee minimization Why a pie-chart portfolio isn’t a retirement plan (and what a real distribution plan should show) Income needs assessment: how to calculate your retirement “gap” and plan withdrawals over time Planning for healthcare before and after Medicare, plus long-term care considerations What a retirement stress test is, and why it helps “future-proof” your plan A fast rundown of advanced tax strategies discussed on the show (e.g., donor-advised funds, CRTs, NUA, ILITs, dynasty trusts, cost segregation, GRATs), and when they may apply If you’re within 5–10 years of retirement (or already retired), this episode will help you pressure-test your assumptions and understand what it takes to retire with more confidence and fewer surprises.
