In this episode, we examine some interesting predictions from Wall Street about the stock market's next decade. Several major firms suggest we might see much lower returns than we've grown accustomed to—possibly just 3% annually for the S&P 500.

We explain why market concentration in just a handful of big tech companies might lead to this outcome and how the treasury market tells an interesting story about inflation and interest rates. You'll understand why traditional investment approaches like buying index funds might not deliver the results many investors expect.

But don't worry - we're not all doom and gloom. We explore how whole life insurance benefits from higher interest rates, with many companies raising their dividend rates. We also examine how annuities offer some of the best income features we've seen in years. Join us as we explain how you can prepare your retirement for a very different market environment.
