They tackle the big question: when everything can change in a single headline, should you react… or stay the course?

In this episode of the Parker Holland Show, Parker and Steve look back at the inflation crisis of the 1970s and the geopolitical events that helped set it off, then connect those lessons to today’s retirement landscape. They discuss how rising energy costs, inflation, market volatility, and global uncertainty can impact purchasing power and long-term retirement income. The conversation also covers today’s biggest retirement risks, including outliving your savings, rising healthcare costs, sequence of returns risk, taxes, and long-term care planning. It’s a practical, timely discussion on why a modern retirement plan needs to balance income, growth, safety, and flexibility.

Parker Holland break down why modern retirement looks less like “slowing down” and more like a second act—and why your money plan has to keep up. They cover the big threats and opportunities retirees face today: longer lifespans, sequence-of-returns risk, healthcare and long-term care costs, Roth conversion “sweet spots,” and tax traps like IRMAA, RMDs, and the widow’s penalty. You’ll also hear practical guidance on navigating new headlines (like prescription pricing changes), Social Security timing, and how to balance growth and protection when markets feel pricey.
