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.

Stuff You Should Know
Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
