๐Ÿš— Are you on track for the ultimate retirement road trip? ๐ŸŒ

ย 

A retirement plan can look a lot like a GPS. Let me draw you the analogy.

๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ Retirement Age:

It's like setting your destination on a GPS. When do you want to arrive, and how much time until then? The clock is ticking โ€“ 35, 20, 10, 5 years?

ย 

๐Ÿ“Š Budget and Income:

Your cash flow statement is the blueprint. Are you utilizing all your income, or is there room for improvement? How well is your plan put together โ€“ pencil & paper or a high-tech Excel spreadsheet?

ย 

โ›ฝ Current Retirement Savings:

Think of it like the gas in your tank. Where are you in your journey โ€“ ahead or behind schedule? Here are some mileage checks based on age:

30: 0.5x of salary saved

40: 1.5x to 2.5x salary saved

50: 3x to 6x salary saved

60: 5.5x to 11x salary saved

ย 

๐Ÿ“ˆ Evaluate Investments:

Adjust your speed based on risk/reward and expected returns. What's your financial speed limit, and is your risk tolerance aligned with that?

ย 

๐Ÿ’ผ Assess Retirement Accounts:

It's like assessing your ride โ€“ is it efficient? Are you in a sleek sports car, reliable hybrid family vehicle, or a slow-moving tank? Your retirement vehicle matters!

ย 

๐Ÿ’ฐ Calculate Your Retirement Number:

This isn't just getting to your destination; it's planning to get you home. Let's ensure you have enough gas for the whole journey! The goal is to have enough retirement savings to live off the interest.

ย 

๐Ÿค Professional Guidance:

Like having a co-pilot, a financial planner (that's me!) can guide you through the twists and turns. Consider this a pit stop for a no-cost retirement plan.

ย 

Remember, it's not just about reaching your destination; it's about enjoying the entire ride. Let's make your retirement journey smooth and memorable! ๐Ÿ›ฃ๏ธ

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

Itโ€™s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off Americaโ€™s third largest cash heist. But itโ€™s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular โ€˜ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
