Video: The Retirement Gamble

By

You, no doubt, have questions about your retirement, especially with the recent market declines. I was speaking with a client yesterday and he told me that over the weekend he watched the documentary The Retirement Gamble. He said his wife recorded it and asked him if he wanted to watch it with her. And later that day, he told me, they had one of the most productive discussions about their finances, how he planned to sell the business, and basically a five year plan. I want you to watch this video too and, like my clients, share it with someone you love. Saving for retirement isn’t exactly fun and talking with your spouse about money is often pushed to the side, but at some point you will have to do both and it makes sense to me that you do them on your own terms.
