And if we look historically at what's happened, that should be enough time.

That has been a huge way to get people to say yes to still investing, yes to not moving everything to like a GIC or an annuity, and to have that port in the storm.

It is a drag on returns.

So I definitely adjust what I'm using in returns when I do a retirement plan.

And I think that's important.

I also show people...

how reliant on investment returns they are.

So for example, if we moved everything to 2% to just keep pace with inflation, how much could you spend then?

Versus if we use 5%, 6%, which is 4% above inflation and whatever, and they'll see the difference in the life.

So you're still good even if it's here.

So be calm.

You're calm, but look how much more fun you could have probably, or look at the difference between here and here.

It's worth it

for you to take a little bit of that risk as long as we sort of lock down and then I'll navigate it somewhere in the middle and be like, cool, you have this cash wedge.

That's for anxiety.

And I think it's just good financial planning.

And then you're invested over here.

And then so we'll meet somewhere in the middle and I'll run that.

And then people feel very calm.

Oh, I could definitely get like three and a half to 4% after fees.
