And then you either work through it or you don't.

I think retirement is one of those major life transitions where it's a new fear that's introduced into your relationship unless you've had a lifetime of ups and downs.

I suspect if you had two people who were like entrepreneurs, right?

They probably wouldn't have that beef in retirement because they've probably been through economic roller coasters before.

There's a higher risk tolerance and a long lens that can happen there.

But if you've got two people who have just been doing the thing and they didn't have a lot of ups and downs economically, and now all of a sudden there's a tap turned off, it's a new anxiety that's introduced into the family and into the relationship, the stakes are higher.

So you have to kind of refigure it out.

And what people have been waiting for, this is supposed to be the golden years of you're done of a life worked well.

And now your spouse is telling you, you can't spend it.

Are you kidding me right now?

Like I get both sides.

I think it's a huge piece of it.

So I don't see this with my clients who have pensions.

I just don't see it because it mimics a paycheck and it's guaranteed income for life.

If you have pensions or even one person with a solid pension and the money in the portfolio is adding to life, if the money in the portfolio is not for like...

housing and groceries and bills and daily life, then people are way less upset about it.

It feels celebratory.

It feels fun to take it.

Let's go.

That's because that income is still coming in.
