Cody brought up an interesting question that received a ton of engagement in the “Retirement Planning Education” Facebook group. The question was: “Is it easier to go from a spender to a saver, or a saver to a spender?” So naturally, we recorded a podcast about it!

In this episode, we will cover: – the topic itself – the poll results – the psychological shift from saving to spending in retirement – tactics to solve this behavioral challenge, and much more. I hope you enjoy this episode! -Kevin
