Two Truths And A Lie

Jan 16, 2025

Today we’re going to have a little fun on the show by tackling the risks and realities of retirement planning by playing a game called ‘Two Truths and a Lie.’

We’ll challenge common beliefs about inflation, interest rates, and emergency funds by explaining what’s true and what is actually a myth. 

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:

  • Bonds don’t do as well in an inflationary environment.
  • Rising interest rates actually help savers. 
  • You don’t want to have any risk when it comes to your emergency fund.
  • Market crashes can present great buying opportunities.
  • Will Social Security ever just go away?
