For today’s episode, we talk about the importance of creating a financial plan for your retirement. Rather than using industry terms, let’s build a financial home from the ground up. Every home needs a blueprint, foundation, walls, and a roof, and so do financial plans. Tune in to learn about the strategy phase, how to plan your financial home to suit your needs, and what to do if you have to remodel. It’s time to start talking about finances because your future depends on it.

  • [04:29] You should start planning your retirement with the end in mind and here’s why.

  • [08:52] Tom builds a financial home and explains each element in financial terms.  
  • [18:50] Here are a few things you need to look at while in the strategy phase of your financial planning.  

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS: 

  • It’s important to talk about finances for retirement because it’s your future.  
  • Everyone’s financial homes look different.  
  • You may have to remodel your financial home every now and again to keep it working for your lifestyle and needs.  
  • Designing a home is more than just planning it out and coming up with a blueprint. Ultimately, you need to start your design with an idea in mind of what you want it to look like when it’s finished. The same can be said about a financial plan.
