What if the market crashes or a recession hits just as you stop working — could you afford it? Financial planner George Agan breaks down the risks many people overlook when planning for retirement. We discuss how much you might really need, why rules of thumb like the 4% rule can fall short, and what to do if returns don’t go as expected.

Remember investments can fall and rise - and past performance is no guarantee of future results. Other fees may apply. Your money is at risk.
This is not financial advice. The reason it’s not financial advice is because it’s not tailored to you. We explain the principles of building wealth but if you want personalised advice, it’s worth speaking to a financial advisor. As with everything financial, please do your own research. We really encourage that because no one cares more about your money than you and if you learn the basics then it will change your life.
