Avoiding Retirement Risk With Distribution Expert Wade Pfau

Most retirement planning is focused entirely on the accumulation phase, but it is the distribution phase where many retirees face even greater risk. 

In today's Better Wealth Episode, I had the honor and pleasure to interview Wade Pfau, expert in retirement and income distribution strategies. Out of all my interviews this one was one of the deepest and most informational as it comes to topics in retirement strategies. Wade is extremely well researched and in our conversation we discussed problems facing retirement, sequence risk loss, safe withdraw risk, annuities, life insurance, reverse mortgages, pension optimization strategies, buffer strategies, and different retirement options for people. Being in the industry you may have read journals/articles or books written by Wade. Listen as he shares his incredible story, experiences and wisdom.
