Framework — Retirement
Retirement is not the time to get clever.
The retirement version of the Frame is about reducing surprises. Park and Earn matter more because the portfolio is now doing work for the investor, not just for some future spreadsheet. Build still matters, but the mix should feel sturdier than a pure accumulation portfolio.
More ParkMore EarnLess surprise
Practical retirement bias
- Use Park to hold the near-term spending buffer.
- Use Earn to support income needs without pretending dividends are magic.
- Keep Build as the growth engine, but do not let it dominate the retirement mood.
- Add Roam if international diversification is still missing.
Where the broker matters
- The account should live at a broker that handles rebalancing, recurring buys, and retirement plumbing without friction.
