Topics he can speak to

  • The claiming decision. Why 62 vs. 70 is worth six figures, and why the standard advice is wrong for some people.
  • What older Americans leave on the table. An estimated $58 billion in benefits goes unclaimed each year — and why.
  • Medicare’s deadlines. The enrollment windows that carry lifetime penalties, and who gets caught.
  • Scams targeting retirees. How the fraud actually works, and the tells that never change.
  • The longevity shift. Retirement as a 25-to-40 year chapter, and what that does to the math.
  • Building an audience in an underserved market. The business story: 350,000 followers, a 90% algorithm-driven revenue drop, and the rebuild.
