Could Your Retirement Last 40 Years?

A longer life could quietly reshape everything about your retirement plan. David Gagnon explains why planning for 30–40 years of income is becoming more realistic, and how outdated assumptions can create risk. The conversation explores the decline of pensions, the growing reliance on Social Security, and how inflation, healthcare costs, and longevity impact financial stability. They also break down a common strategy—claiming Social Security early to invest—and why it often overlooks key factors like taxes, survivor benefits, and guaranteed income growth. The focus stays on building a plan that aligns with real-world uncertainties.
