  • When the Market Recovers but Retirement Still Feels at Risk

    When the Market Recovers but Retirement Still Feels at Risk
    May 5 2026

    When the markets bounce back but retirement still feels unstable, what should you actually focus on? On this episode, Mark Cordner breaks down why retirement planning isn’t about reacting to headlines, but managing risk over the long run. The conversation covers inflation anxiety, market volatility, rebalancing, shifting from accumulation to income, and why what got you to retirement won’t necessarily keep you there. Mark also explains common retirement jargon—like RMDs, Roth conversions, and longevity risk—and why estate planning and risk awareness matter more as retirement approaches.

    The Financial Gaps Most Retirees Never See Coming
    Apr 28 2026

    Most people reach retirement with big financial blind spots—and no one ever warned them. On this episode, Mark Cordner breaks down why financial literacy matters more than ever, from understanding taxes in retirement to navigating annuities, guaranteed income, and long-term planning choices. The conversation covers common misconceptions, why many retirees feel overwhelmed, and how education—not guesswork—plays a central role in building clarity and confidence. The discussion also explores work-optional lifestyles, staying engaged with your finances, and why understanding how money works is a responsibility that can’t be outsourced.

  • Why Building Wealth and Protecting It Are Two Different Games

    Why Building Wealth and Protecting It Are Two Different Games
    Apr 21 2026

    What if the same strategy that helped you build wealth could put your retirement at risk? Mark Cordner breaks down why retirement requires a different mindset than accumulation, especially during periods of market volatility. He explains the “two-pocket” strategy—balancing market-based assets with principal-protected money—to help manage risk, create flexibility, and avoid being forced to make decisions at the wrong time. From sequence-of-returns risk to inflation and confidence swings, this episode focuses on thinking differently as you transition into retirement.
