Untangling the Golden Knot: Confronting Your Retirement Worries and Knowing When Enough is Enough

The transition to retirement is supposed to be the reward for decades of work and saving. Yet for many, that transition feels more like stepping into the unknown. The questions won't stop circling: How much is enough? What if the market crashes? What about inflation? What if I outlive my savings?

In Untangling the Golden Knot, U.S. Army veteran and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER(R) practitioner Chris Pollard draws on decades of experience guiding high-net worth families to reveal why financial security doesn't automatically bring peace of mind-and what to do about it. Pollard blends the technical side of wealth management with the human side of retirement so you can stop second-guessing and start fully living without financial fear.

More than charts and spreadsheets, this book reshapes the way you think about money and the meaning of life to ask the questions no financial plan can answer: What are you retiring to? What will give you meaning in the next phase of life? How can you use your wealth to strengthen your family, support causes you care about, and build a legacy that lasts?

Discover:

• Exactly what "enough" means for you-financially and personally-so you can stop chasing an ever-moving target.
• Shift from a lifetime of saving to spending with financial clarity.
• Build a long-term care plan that reduces stress for yourself and your loved ones as you age.
• Identify "activity gold," fulfilling passion pursuits that deliver multiple layers of meaning.
• Use simple decision-making tools to avoid retirement anxiety and act with assurance.

Clear, compassionate, and actionable, Untangling the Golden Knot shows you how to replace worry with wisdom so you can spend, give, and live without fear. If you're ready to enjoy the retirement you've earned, this book will help you untangle the knot of uncertainty and step into lasting peace of mind.
