Inflation quietly reshapes retirement long before most people notice the damage. On this episode, Steve Aul breaks down why inflation, taxes, and overlooked planning gaps pose real challenges for retirees. The conversation explores how rising costs erode purchasing power over time, common DIY retirement mistakes, and the disconnect between income, expenses, and long-term lifestyle expectations. Steve also touches on required minimum distributions, tax exposure, healthcare costs, and income strategies retirees are asking about today—highlighting why a coordinated plan matters as retirement landscapes continue to change.
