Part 2 of 2

Planning for retirement and replacing a work paycheck with savings can be a daunting task, especially with the current challenges of market declines, inflation, rising interest rates, and the threat of recession. Christine Benz, Morningstar's director of personal finance, is passionate about simplifying retirement portfolio planning and has identified six retirement blind spots:

• retirement date risk

• sequence-of-return risk 

• low-yield risk

• inflation risk 

• health care/long-term care risk 

• longevity risk 

In this second of a two-part series on Building a Better Retirement, Benz explains how to mitigate these risks and offers solutions to ensure a financially secure retirement.
