If you’ve spent decades saving, investing, and doing everything “right,” why does spending in retirement feel so hard?

Many retirees don’t struggle because they didn’t save enough, they struggle because the transition from saver to spender is psychological, not mathematical. In this video, we break down why so many retirees underspend and how to finally enjoy your money without fear of running out.

Drawing on behavioral finance research ,including the paper Spend More Today Safely, this video walks through 8 proven behavioral shifts that help retirees spend more confidently, safely, and intentionally. You’ll learn why income feels safer than portfolios, how income floors and spending guardrails reduce anxiety, and why loss aversion and regret often keep retirees stuck in permanent frugality.

We cover:
Why saving is rewarded — but spending in retirement is not
How to transition from saver to spender without panic
The role of guaranteed income, Social Security optimization, and debt-free retirement
Why retirees fear “wasting” money and how to overcome loss aversion
How systems, automation, and phased spending increases protect against emotional decisions
Why gliding into retirement can reduce sequence-of-returns risk
How to enjoy retirement spending while staying financially secure

If you’re retired, nearing retirement, or planning ahead — and want to spend your retirement money confidently without guilt, this video will help you reframe money as a tool for living, not just protecting.
