Quotes to ponder:

"There’s a 60% chance I live the exact lifestyle I want to in retirement. But no matter what, all three scenarios are acceptable to me, so there’s a 100% chance I’ll enjoy life throughout my retirement."

"Reducing your range of outcomes has many benefits. In this particular basketball scenario, simple math supports it; 99% of 2 points is better than ~40% of 3 points."

"Why risk something you have and need for something you don’t have and don’t need?"
