Important points:

  • Funding retirement is not like investing for the short term. You’re really funding relatively small expenses relative to the overall decades of spending.
  • Part of the superpower is the ability to adjust and adjust not just your current spending but maybe make changes to other goals, legacy goals, specific spending goals for the future, and then continue adjusting as you learn over time.
