In this episode, Ryan Burklo discusses the importance of true liquidity in retirement. He explains that while pre-retirement, short-term volatility can be addressed due to a longer time horizon, withdrawals from market-based assets in retirement can compound the effect of market losses and increase the risk of running out of money. Burklo provides an example to illustrate this concern. He suggests setting up a true liquidity fund alongside retirement accounts to have access to funds that are not correlated with the market. Burklo emphasizes the need to set up this fund prior to retirement to manage risks and live a more comfortable life.
