How Pilots Think About Risk and Pilot Life Expectancy

The Pilot’s Calculus Flying an airplane teaches you something most people never experience: how to live with calculated risk. Every takeoff, every approach, every decision in the cockpit forces you to assess probabilities, weigh outcomes, and act decisively despite uncertainty. When you spend years managing risk at 35,000 feet, something shifts in how you see mortality and the unknown.

336 — The "Social Clock" That's Making You Feel Behind—and How to Stop

Do you ever feel like everyone else is a few steps ahead of you? Maybe you thought you'd have the job, the house, the relationship, or the retirement account figured out by now—and the fact that you don't feels like proof you've fallen behind. It's easy to feel like everyone else is doing better and you can't catch up. But there are some strategies that can help you feel better about wherever you are right now. Some of the things I talk about are: Why the word "behind" is the thing that trips us up—and the question that changes everything. The "social clock" researchers have identifie…

The Space Between “Hi” and “Friend”

So, you have decided to try making new friends. That is the first step. But now you are stuck in the space between "Hi, nice to meet you" and "Want to grab coffee?" It is an awkward space. It is the space where you wonder if you are being too pushy or too distant. The space where you second-guess every text. Let me tell you something: everyone feels that way. One of the biggest barriers to making friends is the fear of not fitting in or being rejected. Life changes, retirement, health issues, the loss of a spouse, can impact self-esteem. You may feel less confident about reaching out. But …

More of those long, rambling conversations that used to happen when you ran into someone at the office. And then... nothing. The lunch invitations stopped. The check-ins thinned out. The group text that used to run all day, you check it now mostly out of habit, not expectation. You still texted your old work friends "happy birthday" last month. But you can't remember the last real conversation. And somewhere in the quiet of your retirement calendar, a thou…

We did — all 270+ pages — and we're breaking down the real numbers so you can make an informed decision about your retirement. In this episode, we walk through the 2025 Social Security Trustees Report: how much is really in the trust fund, where the money comes from, why benefits are outpacing income, and how Congress fixed this exact same crisis back in 1983 when the fund was just months from empty.
