Building your retirement savings is one challenge. Turning those savings into income that can last through rising prices, market swings, and unexpected expenses requires a different playbook.

In this episode of Understanding Money with the Noles Group, Matt McClure joins Parker, Chandler, and Tyler Noles, along with Evan Griffith, to discuss why growth and protection both matter in retirement. The team explores how market losses can affect your savings when you’re taking withdrawals—and why different portions of your money need different jobs.

From organizing assets for growth, income, liquidity, and protection to identifying the gap between dependable income and essential expenses, this conversation connects your savings to the life you want to live. The team also explains why several accounts don’t necessarily mean you’re diversified, discusses considerations when evaluating annuities, and tackles common retirement assumptions in a round of “Right or Wrong.”

Plus, hear answers to frequently asked questions about moving to cash, taking withdrawals during a downturn, and planning when spouses have different comfort levels with risk.
