No Single Clear Picture
You have the pension, the 401(k)/403(b), and Social Security on the way โ but nobody's tied them into one real plan, so you still don't know your monthly retirement paycheck.
Scared of a Market Drop
A downturn in the final stretch could change everything, and you don't want to guess with your life savings or turn accounts into income by hoping it works out.
Exposed on Taxes & Spouse
Pension and Social Security taxation, beneficiaries, insurance gaps, an outdated estate plan โ you don't want to find out too late that something was missed.
A pension and a big 401(k) don't mean you're automatically set โ retirement works only when you know how pension, Social Security, taxes, and withdrawals fit together.
