The BIG Retirement Lie (And Why You’re Being Scammed)

Описание: Think retirement is a never-ending holiday on a beach? In 2026, the "Retirement Lie" is more dangerous than ever. I’m pulling back the curtain on why the pension industry wants you trapped in a consumerism loop.

Most of us are chasing an image of retirement that doesn't exist. We work jobs we hate to buy things we don't need, all to reach a "medal" at the end of a race we're too tired to run. In this video, I break down the PLSA Retirement Living Standards for 2026 and reveal why the "Moderate" and "Comfortable" targets might be keeping you broke.

What I cover today:

The Consumerism Loop: Why a salary increase often leads to more debt, not more freedom.

The PLSA Fallacy: Breaking down the £31,000+ per year retirement myth.

Retirement 2.0: Shifting from "The End Game" to lifestyle design and mini-retirements.

Downsizing the Ego: Could your house be the anchor stopping you from retiring early?
