Summary

We have a fun, wide-ranging discussion today about buying happiness, buying art, firing company boards, and figuring out your retirement number. Liz from ChiefMomOfficer.org joins Len (LenPenzo.com) and Paula (AffordAnything.com) to cover these wide-ranging topics. First, we'll discuss a piece arguing that you CAN buy happiness....and that it's different for everyone. True? You'll find out our panel's opinion today! Plus, we'll discuss Wells Fargo recently renewing every member of their board of directors. Shouldn't some board members have been fired after their recent fiasco? If you own stock, are moments like this a reason to sell today? Finally, we'll discuss your retirement number. When is it important to know how much you'll need for retirement? Early on when you're saving? Later? Ever? We'll ask all three panelists these questions and more. In our Friday Fintech segment we talk to Madelaine D'Angelo from Arthena about buying into an art fund. How does it work? We'll talk all things art and buying it with Madelaine today.
