0:00.0	Welcome to the Money Tree Investing Podcast.
0:04.0	Stock market, wealth, personal finance, value stocks, invest in your life.
0:14.0	Well, hello everybody. I'm Joe Salsi, I'm one of the four hosts of the Money Tree Investing Podcast.
0:18.0	Great to have you back for another episode. It's my week
0:21.6	in the chair and I'm really excited about today's show. If you're not familiar with our format,
0:27.0	we start off with about a 25 minute interview with someone with an interesting story about
0:32.5	investing. And then our roundtable of Miranda, Andrew, Andrea and I discuss that topic more between the four of us.
0:41.5	So let's not delay. Let's get started with this week's interview.
0:49.8	Well, there's a huge problem in America and elsewhere. Maybe the problem is expectations.
1:10.3	Maybe it's the promises we feel that governments and companies made to us. Maybe it's education here to talk about it. It's a producer of a new film about retirement called Broken Eggs, the looming retirement crisis. Andrew Meadows joins us. Welcome, Andrew. Hello, hello. Thank you so much for having me. I appreciate it. Absolutely. Love talking to you. And I know that you know how much I just love this movie,

1:20.8	What's this all about? Well, not to be too sensational, but I feel like sometimes we have to be
1:25.8	in order for people to understand and to listen.
1:28.9	It is very much a looming retirement crisis because we do very much feel like we still have a lot of control in what our future is going to look like.
1:36.5	So we did the film primarily to give people that pit in their stomach.
1:40.6	There's not a lot of fear there.
1:42.5	I think what people are finding more about the film is that
1:45.1	there's a lot of truth there. And my big stance on retirement in general is that it's not a sexy
1:50.3	topic. It's not something that somebody wants to talk about. Certainly isn't when you want to talk
1:53.9	about at Thanksgiving. There's a lot of shame involved in it. So right now, in the beginning,
1:59.9	we're happy that it gives people that pit in their
2:02.3	stomach because we really want to leave people with something to think about.
