FOMO, YOLO, or JOMO: Choosing a Smarter Retirement Mindset
About this episode
Trying to guess whether markets have hit bottom can create more stress than clarity in retirement. In this episode, Tim Wood explains why relying on headlines, timing calls, or acquisition‑focused thinking can undermine retirement confidence. The discussion explores shifting from growth to income, managing inflation and longevity risk, and avoiding the pressure of having everything tied to market performance. Tim also unpacks FOMO, YOLO, and JOMO mindsets—and why enjoying retirement requires a plan that reduces uncertainty rather than chasing the next market move.
