Build retirement financial planning around phases

Spending after work rarely stays flat across decades. The early years bring travel and hobbies, the middle years settle into routine, and the later years shift expenses sharply toward healthcare and support.

Planning around a single annual figure misses this curve. Budget generously for the active first decade, allow routine costs to ease afterwards, and reserve a dedicated medical pool for the final phase. Each stage can then draw from assets suited to its distance.

Build your retirement financial planning around these three phases, and your corpus will match the life you actually live rather than an averaged spreadsheet figure.
