The Delusional Retirement Confidence of Americans
Update: 2025-09-12
Description
Americans are feeling strangely upbeat about retirement — maybe too upbeat. A new survey shows confidence is soaring, with fewer people saying it will take a “miracle” to retire comfortably. But optimism fueled by a hot stock market can be a dangerous thing if it leads to complacency. In this episode, Pete and the team break down the new retirement mood, the hidden worries still keeping people up at night, and the math behind what it actually takes to stop working for good. From the half-million-dollar savings gap to the real meaning of the 4% rule, this conversation cuts through the delusion and gets to what matters: how to build a plan that works even when the market doesn’t.
