Everyone wants to be able to retire at some point and live a happy, healthy, and financially secure life beyond their work years.

In the season finale of Retirement Genius, Chris and Joe discuss overcoming the challenges of aging, along with more information about why high inflation is leading to the biggest raise in Social Security in more than 40 years.
As people plan for retirement, they now need to consider a factor previous generations didn't need to worry about: climate change. Climate change is going to affect retirees' decisions on where to live, how to stay healthy, and how to avoid financial problems brought on by extreme weather events. This week on Retirement Genius, Chris discusses how the rise of heat waves, wildfires, drought, hurricanes, and flooding, are all recipes for disaster in the lives of seniors not well suited to cope with these conditions.
Anyone planning to retire this year is facing some serious economic challenges that they must consider, but it is important to remember that economies are cyclical and when dark clouds gather-- they will eventually pass.

Pay down debt, especially credit cards or anything tied to an adjustable rate.5. Time to re-evaluate and prioritize how you spend your money and get on a budget.6. Hold off buying real estate or refinancing a mortgage.7. Evaluate your entitlements such as Social Security and Medicare.8. Provide security for the future by looking at insurance today.9.

Every generation will feel the impact of climate change, and at a time when demographics are already working against the rising tide of seniors they need to factor in new risks during their retirement.
