About this episode

This episode discusses the challenges of retirement planning amidst media noise and emotional reactions, emphasizing the importance of a structured strategy and awareness of scams.

Retirement doesn’t silence the noise—it just changes it. This episode with Jackie Campbell explores how media headlines, geopolitical concerns, and emotional reactions can derail long-term planning, plus why a structured strategy matters more than ever. The discussion covers investment “buckets,” managing risk in retirement, and avoiding panic-driven decisions. It also highlights real-world scam tactics and how to spot them before they cost you. Plus, reflections from a unique Mar-a-Lago experience and a conversation on work ethic and the American dream add a broader perspective to today’s financial landscape.
