Nobody Teaches You How to Turn Your 401(k) Into a Paycheck

You spent decades learning how to save for retirement, but almost nobody teaches you how to actually spend from it. Today, Scott explains why retirement income planning is completely different from simply building a large 401(k), and how to turn retirement savings into a reliable paycheck. He reminds us that the distribution phase of retirement can be just as important as the accumulation phase.

Here’s what we cover in this episode:

💸 Retirement Income Isn’t Automatic

🔄 Saving vs Spending Mentality

🧩 Coordination Matters Most

📉 Withdrawal Mistakes Add Up

🛡️ A “War Chest” Creates Stability
