He dives into misconceptions about market losses, portfolio fees, mortgage interest rates, and diversification strategies. Through real-life examples and expert analysis, you’ll learn valuable insights to help you navigate your retirement planning with confidence.

One of the most memorable takeaways from the episode is the analogy used to describe diversification: "You don't want all your eggs in one basket, but you want all your baskets on the same table."
