Most retirement plans obsess over how long you’ll live (lifespan) and miss the years you’ll live well (healthspan).

In this episode, Dr. Preston Cherry (Financial Planning Ph.D., CFP®, Top 10 Investopedia Advisor, Founder of Concurrent Wealth Management) shows Gen X how to plan for the years you’re healthiest, most active, and most fulfilled - and how to align money to life stages, not just birthdays.

You’ll learn a simple framework to fund your “go-go” years, protect the “slow-go,” and prepare for the “no-go” - without oversaving your best years away.

This isn’t about perfection. It’s about harmony - so you can live your wealth, your way.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
