Key Takeaways
- To prepare your finances for retirement, consider stashing more money in cash and fixed-income to avoid touching your nest egg if a bear market occurs.

- Before you retire, start tracking your spending to get an idea of how much money you’ll need to cover your expenses in retirement.
