    🔑 1. Stop Underestimating Healthcare Costs

    Most people think Medicare has them covered. It doesn’t. Out-of-pocket healthcare expenses in retirement can derail your peace of mind — unless you shift your mindset from reactive to proactive.

    Tip: Start planning for future costs now, not just current ones.


    🏡 2. Let Go of the House That’s Holding You Back

    Your home may have sentimental value — but is it silently draining your wealth, time, and energy?

    Sometimes, downsizing isn’t giving up. It’s choosing freedom.


    💸 3. Rethink When You Take Social Security

    Taking Social Security early feels “safe,” but could cost you hundreds of thousands over time. In the video, we break down why patience pays off — literally.

    Watch the full breakdown on this in our video.


    ❤️ 4. Don’t Let Generosity Jeopardize Your Security

    Giving to adult children is loving — but not if it leaves you vulnerable. Learn to set healthy financial boundaries without guilt.


    🌷 5. Include Joy in Your Budget

    Yes, joy. Too many retirees budget only for “survival.” But life after 60 should include travel, hobbies, and time with grandkids.

    Financial freedom includes emotional freedom, too.


    🗣️ 6. Talk About Money (Even If It’s Uncomfortable)

    Most of us grew up being told not to talk about money. But silence breeds confusion and shame. Shift to openness — especially with family.


    🎯 Why This Matters
