For many affluent retirees, the biggest financial fear isn’t market volatility or rising taxes. It’s this simple question: What happens if I’m not the one here to manage the plan? In this episode, we talk about a deeply personal concern shared by countless couples.

When one spouse manages the investment strategy, the tax planning, and the long-term vision, the other is often left trusting that everything will work out. That trust may work fine today, but what if something changes tomorrow? What if the surviving spouse is left with a complex financial plan they don’t fully understand?

Devin shares his own story, including the moment he realized his wife might struggle to carry on the plan they had built together. From that fear came action; a series of steps to make sure she would not only inherit assets, but also confidence and clarity. You’ll hear about the simple, practical moves you can make to protect the person you love, including how to start the conversation, what to document, and how to choose someone you both trust.

This episode is a must-listen if you’ve ever thought, I just want to make sure my spouse will be okay if something happens to me.
