In this episode he explains:

  • Couples where the “money story” is different and how that might affect retirement planning?
  • After 40 years of marriage, effective communication about money and retirement
  • Single people and retirement planning
  • Self sabotage
  • Suddenly being out of a job before being ready or prepared
