Episode 229: Solving the Retirement Lifestyle Puzzle with Jeffery Panik

When people think about retirement, they mostly look at whether they can afford it. They plan out long term savings and hope that when they get to their golden years, that money will be enough. But how much is enough? Well, that somewhat depends on what you want to do in retirement.

In Episode 125 I talked about planning for what to do in retirement, but to figure out how to use that to determine "how much is enough," I talked with financial advisor Jeffery Panik on solving that puzzle.

In this episode you will learn:

• How to determine how much you need to save to retire
• Why what you want to do in retirement helps in determining that number
• How all of that could change over time as you approach retirement
