You've probably asked yourself...

"Do I have enough money to retire?" "Will I outlive my money?" "What happens if the market crashes the year I retire?" "Are annuities a good option, or a trap?"

If you've asked even one of these, this class was built for you. By the end of the 45 minutes, you'll have a real answer to all four.

What you'll learn

Secret #1: Why your parents' retirement playbook will quietly bankrupt you

Your parents retired on three things: a pension, Social Security, and a small nest egg. Two of those are gone today. Almost nobody has restructured their plan to compensate, and that's the first thing we'll fix.

Secret #2: The 5 hidden threats most retirees never see coming

Longevity. Sequence-of-returns risk. Inflation. Healthcare. And the psychological trap that keeps retirees too scared to spend their own savings. One of these is a silent multiplier that makes the other four worse, and we'll show you the math on which one it is.

Secret #3: How to create your own pension-like paycheck for life

The framework fiduciaries use to cover 100% of your essential expenses with guaranteed income. So if the market crashes the month you retire, it doesn't decide whether you can pay your mortgage. This is also where we'll get into what's actually changed about annuities since 1985, because the products your dad complained about don't really exist anymore.

Why you can trust what you'll hear

Taught by a Certified Financial Fiduciary. Fiduciaries are legally required to put your interests first. That's a higher bar than most advisors meet.


Built on Monte Carlo probability simulations, the same kind of math major institutions use. Not rules of thumb like "the 4% rule."


Sourced from the American Academy of Actuaries, the Society of Actuaries, the Wall Street Journal, Kiplinger's, and LIMRA Secure Retirement Institute.

No product pitch. No pressure. Just the math.


Plus: your personal Retirement Ready Score


A Monte Carlo-driven number, like a credit score for your retirement plan, that tells you the actual percentage likelihood your current plan gets you to your goals. Most people score in the 30s or 40s. They have no idea.
