You're 63. You've done the right things. And now the market is doing what the market does, and it doesn't care about your timeline.

In this episode of The Perfect Retirement Plan?, Phillip Smith speaks directly to the person two years out from retirement who's watching their portfolio move and wondering whether the plan they built still means what they thought it meant. This isn't a market forecast. It's a conversation about what volatility actually is, why it hits differently at 63 than it did at 43, and what a well-structured retirement plan is designed to do when things get rough.

Topics include sequence of returns risk, loss aversion and behavioral decision making, income guardrails, the real cost of going to cash, and how to stress test your retirement plan before the stakes get any higher.
