Retirement Realities: Why 401(k)s Aren't Enough

Added: 2026-05-25

[00:00:00]It resonated a lot with me because I was making a lot of money young working for companies, but I never saw a viable path to retirement. Now, today I have a much different view on what retirement should be, but I never figured out, okay, how do I live the same life that like my dad lived when he worked for the government, had a pension, retired Canadian, so different than 401k, but same concept.

[00:00:22]I don't think that that retirement path is available to many people anymore because they depend on their 401ks and they don't have these guaranteed pensions that companies used to offer, which they don't anymore. So, your story actually resonated a lot because it's the same it's the same thought process that I went through when I quit corporate.
