Retiring Today

A common saying is you need a million dollars for retirement, but what does that actually mean for you? In today's episode, you'll meet Tom and Sandy. They have $1 million saved for retirement at age 65, and in their first iteration of their plan, the money was going to run out at age 79. Instead of panicking or giving up on retirement, we tested different strategies to see what actually works for them. This is a hypothetical case study, but these are strategies to consider and test in your own retirement plan. These are the strategies we explore with pre-retirees everyday to help them confidently enter their next chapter. -- 🗓️ Ready to take the next step?
