3 Spending Surprises From J.P. Morgan's Study of 5 Million Retirees
Last week, I made the case that many retirees can safely spend more than their plans suggest.
Today, the largest bank in the country puts that idea to the test.
But instead of relying on surveys, JP Morgan studied real bank transactions from over 5 million American households.
The data reveals three spending patterns most retirement plans ignore.
And together, they can decide whether a nest egg lasts a full 30-year retirement... or runs out years early.
In this episode, you'll learn:
→ What millions of real bank transactions reveal about retirement spending
→ The spending surge most people fail to plan for
→ Why so few retirees rarely spend the way traditional plans assume — and a simple way to protect against it
A strong retirement plan isn't built on how retirees say they behave... it's built on how they actually do.
