Retirement can be exciting for many reasons. Losing your paycheck isn’t one of them. For some, this single change causes enough stress and anxiety to derail this exciting chapter in your life. While retirement is, by definition, the end of full-time work and the pay that comes with it, it doesn’t have to be the end of a steady stream of available funds.
