The Retirement Choice Most People Never Make

August 7, 2026 12:25 pm

ABOUT THE EPISODE
What happens to your retirement savings if the stock market drops 25%?

Wharton finance professor Nikolai Roussanov breaks down the real risks behind 401(k) investing, why volatility is part of the system, and whether the government would step in during a major crash.

Using past crises like 1987, the dot-com bust, and COVID, we explore how markets recover, why investors often make costly mistakes, and why bailouts are more likely to support companies—not individual portfolios.

If you rely on a 401(k), understanding these risks is key to protecting your financial future.
