AFG Town Hall September 9th 2026 – Retirement: How Much Is Enough?

September 10, 2026

Tracey tackled one of the most common questions she hears from clients: how much money is actually enough to retire comfortably.

He also answered some of the questions he’s been getting most in client reviews lately, including how to think about rising costs without derailing your retirement lifestyle.
