Sleepwalking into Retirement Regret (And How To Avoid It)

Jul 9, 2024

In our season finale, Sarah and Dennis address some kickback received on a social media post highlighting the issues we all face as a society when it comes to funding our retirement. And why we're trying to help people avoid sleepwalking into retirement regret.

We discuss why it's so important to be aware of the pitfalls and how we can take some simple steps to improve our financial future.

We cover:

  • Why retirement planning is harder now than it was 30 years ago.
  • The Office for National Statistics' life expectancy calculator
  • The recent significant increase in the amount of income required for a moderate retirement
  • The pension gender gap and why it exists
  • Retirement anxiety

We're looking forward to returning in September after a summer break. If you have a question you'd like us to cover during the next season, now is the time to reach out.
