People like to change their goals sometimes, whether they realize it or not. Today we talk about common ways people move the goalposts in their financial lives. Should your goals move and what happens when they do? 

 

Troy and Alan talk through the techniques you can implement to stick to your goals in a healthy way. From getting serious about saving what you need to protecting yourself from too much risk, it’s important to understand your plan. What does it take to have that successful plan?
