Bonus Episode: Are You Relying Too Heavily on Your Employer for Financial Security?

This bonus episode of Clear Money Talk features Tim Clairmont, MSFS™, LACP™, Wealth Advisor, and Tyler Andrews, CFP®, Wealth Advisor, tackling an important question many people overlook: how dependent are you on your employer for long-term financial stability? Employer-sponsored benefits such as 401(k) plans, pensions, stock compensation, group life insurance, disability coverage, and health insurance can play an important role in a financial plan. However, Tim and Tyler discuss how job changes, layoffs, early retirement, health events, or corporate decisions can expose gaps if those benefits are the foundation of your entire strategy. This educational conversation walks through how financial resilience often requires diversification beyond your employer and a clearer understanding of what happens when employment ends, whether by choice or circumstance. Topics discussed include: Concentration risk tied to employer stock and equity compensation Why pensions and Social Security typically replace only a portion of income The limitations of relying solely on employer-sponsored retirement plans What happens to health, life, and disability insurance after leaving a job The role of emergency savings and liquidity planning Why having a financial “Plan B” can reduce uncertainty and stress
