David Palombo+Followretire at 62???I retired at 62 which was 5 years ago for me. I had just moved to Florida to start a new life with my new girl. Everyone talks about getting a smaller monthly check but for me it was worth having money while still young enough to enjoy it. While running the numbers think about 60 more checks while young enough to receive all of it. Think about how much more that money would help through some times when you have unexpected bills for unseen costs. I would say, if you are worried about the consequences just have all or a reasonable set amount put into an interest bearing acct and watch your money grow. That gives you options to grow your money in a reaponsible way. Enjoy your retirement!!!!! #RetirementWorries4727Share
GelidGazelle+FollowFacing Retirement Panic: Will I Have to Work at 80?! 😱Lately, I've been losing sleep over my retirement plans. All my life, I've heard that the S&P500 returns 8-10% a year, so I built my future around that idea. But what if it only returns 5% for the next 30 years? I'm honestly terrified. Will I have to rejoin the workforce at 80 just to make ends meet? Or is everyone in my generation just doomed, hoping the government steps in? Has anyone else been through this kind of anxiety? I feel so lost and would really appreciate any advice or stories from people who have faced similar worries. How are you planning for the future with so much uncertainty? 🥲 #RetirementWorries #CareerPlanning #FinancialAnxiety1818Share
