Back to EpisodesBeach, Budgets, and Balance: What Vacation Planning Really Looks Like in Retirement
Description
Summer's here. And somewhere between the excitement of planning a big trip and the anxiety of what it costs, a lot of retirees end up doing something that surprises us… they feel guilty about it. They worked hard, they saved, they planned for decades, and then they second-guess a beach vacation. Today, Phil talks about how travel fits into a real retirement plan and how to enjoy it without guilt. You didn't save for decades so you could sit home and protect every dollar. Give yourself permission to go. Just take your plan with you.
