Summary

There is no shortage of questions when it comes to navigating and planning for retirement.

➤ How much do I need to save? 

➤ How do I optimize my tax bill and avoid overpaying the IRS? 

➤ When do I take Social Security? 

➤ What should I invest in? (And what should I avoid?!)

The list goes on.

And while you’ve likely read (or heard) helpful answers to most of the big questions, it never hurts to revisit them or get a different perspective.

In fact, some studies suggest that it can take hearing something 7 times before you retain it 🤯

Today on the show, I’m answering listener questions with the Retirement Answer Man himself, Roger Whitney.

Questions like, “What account type is the best retirement account type to fund after you’ve reached your savings goals?” 

And, “What’s the best process for making important changes to your investments after learning you aren't invested properly?” 

If you want to hear our answers to these great questions (and more!), you’ll enjoy this episode.
