Want to know if your retirement plan is actually on track? Build your plan with Boldin and see your Chance of Financial Success Score 👉 https://go.boldin.com/affordanything Jamie Hopkins, a Wall Street Journal best-selling author and financial expert who specializes in retirement planning, explains why the idea of a retirement “magic number” can lead people in the wrong direction. In this episode, you’ll learn a more practical way to think about retirement — one that helps you plan for income, lifestyle, and change, instead of fixating on a single number. We also break down how to build a plan that can hold up through inflation, healthcare costs, market swings, and the kinds of surprises that can throw retirement off course.
