As retirement gets closer, you enter what I call the the Retirement Red Zone™: the 5-10 years before and into retirement when financial decisions start carrying more weight and mistakes can be harder to recover from.
Most people are doing exactly what they were told to do:
They contribute.
They invest.
They wait.
But as retirement gets closer, the question changes.
It’s no longer just:
“How much do I have?”
It becomes:
“How is this actually going to work for me?”
That’s where many 401(k)s fall short.
