How to Succeed in Good Markets and Bad
Thursday, 24 September, 2026

In this episode of Financial Safari, Coach Pete and the team discuss why the investment strategy that builds wealth during your working years may not be the same strategy that protects your income in retirement. From concentrated company stock and cryptocurrency swings to the traditional 4% withdrawal rule, the conversation explores how market losses can have a much greater impact once regular withdrawals begin. The episode breaks down sequence-of-returns risk, the importance of the financial “red zone,” and how separating money by purpose may help protect essential expenses while allowing other assets to pursue growth. Coach Pete also addresses longevity, inflation, hidden fees, spousal income, and the value of creating a written plan designed to provide dependable income through both strong and challenging markets.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
