Build a Retirement You'll Actually Enjoy w/ Wes Moss #1187

Wes Moss joins Joel and Matt to discuss his new research on what makes retirement satisfying beyond just the financial numbers. He explains that many retirees are anxious or regretful, and that money alone does not erase anxiety. Moss shares his 'money green zones' for investable assets, income, and mortgage timing, and emphasizes that purpose, core pursuits, and community must be built well before leaving work. The conversation also covers the strong happiness boost from simply knowing you could retire, even if you choose not to, and the growing challenge of making friends as we age.
