We spend decades saving and investing, but the real test of money smarts often comes at the very end during the distribution phase of wealth creation.

In this episode of the Moneywise Podcast, Virat and Rachita explore the stage that determines whether your years of hard work and saving actually translate into a comfortable life. It’s about more than just numbers; it’s about using your corpus wisely so you can enjoy retirement with dignity.

Here’s what you’ll hear:
•⁠  ⁠Why good retirement planning isn’t just about how much you save, but how you plan to use it.
•⁠  ⁠How structuring your asset portfolio matters when you start drawing down your savings.
•⁠  ⁠The often-ignored challenges of living off your investments, from inflation to healthcare costs.
•⁠  ⁠Real-world stories that show why the distribution phase is as important as the building phase.
•⁠  ⁠Practical perspectives on financial planning for retirement that can help you think ahead without panic.

Whether you’re decades away from retirement or already planning to use your accumulated corpus, this episode will get you thinking about how to make your money last for the life you want to live.

The aim is simple: to spark smarter conversations about the final stage of wealth creation, one that is as much about peace of mind as it is about managing your asset portfolio.
