In this week’s episode of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons, CEO and Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, breaks down five common retirement outcomes - some inspiring, some sobering - and shares how intentional planning and mindset shifts can help you pivot toward a more meaningful future.

Drawing on a decades-old survey of 90-year-old women who shared what they would’ve done differently in life, Darryl explores how those insights can shape our retirement journey. From nightmare scenarios to dream retirements, he provides real-life examples, biblical context, and actionable advice to help you evaluate your own path.

Key highlights of the episode include:

  • The “four retirements” model, plus a bonus fifth, and how to tell which one you’re headed for.
  • Why relationships matter just as much as money when it comes to long-term well-being.
  • How to avoid becoming a financial burden to family or the system.
  • What legacy planning really means - and how to start one even with modest resources.
  • The surprising health benefits of feeling connected to a larger community.

Whether you’re preparing for retirement or already living it, this episode offers practical and heartfelt wisdom for navigating the road ahead with clarity and purpose.
