Retirees are stressed about spending their savings
Briefly

Nearly half of American retirees feel stressed transitioning into the decumulation phase of wealth, especially due to inflation, healthcare costs, and lack of planning.
The study indicates that many retirees grapple with anxiety over how to responsibly draw from savings and generate retirement income, which differs significantly from their previous savings strategies.
