FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DES MOINES, Iowa, September 24, 2025 — Retirees across Iowa are asking the same question: “Have I done enough?” Even after decades of saving and planning, many retirees feel a lingering doubt that something could slip through the cracks.

That’s why Retirement Red Flags is hosting the “2025 Annual Retiree Update” workshop this November in West Des Moines. The event is designed specifically for retirees who feel mostly prepared, but want to identify overlooked risks and last-minute adjustments before the 2026 changes take effect.

“This isn’t about scaring people,” said Nate Crannell, co-founder of Retirement Red Flags. “It’s about giving people the peace of mind that comes from knowing they’ve looked under every stone. Most retirees are 95% ready. We help them find the last 5% that can make all the difference.”
