In this profound episode, Ben Taatjes tackles a cornerstone concept from his book 'Repurposed: The Untold Story of Retirement in America' - the critical distinction between wealth and income. Discover why fixating on account balances rather than sustainable cash flow often leads to what Ben calls 'The Money Disorder,' causing unnecessary stress and diminished quality of life in retirement. Learn practical strategies for making the mental shift from wealth accumulation to income generation, freeing yourself to enjoy retirement rather than merely preserving your nest egg.
