Money Not Math Drew Erickson

Dad jokes, the financial media, and the countdown to your retirement. 5/8/24 Retirement Planning Coffee Talk with Ross Welte and Dexter.



Check out this video for some real client retirement stories regarding their emotions and financial outcomes!



Why is the news so negative? Can anyone explain this FPS situation? Emotions are the detriment to long-term planning. Don’t use words! Should we get out of the market? What happens if you get out at the wrong time? The Death of Equities. The value of being independent and being open to your options. Are you getting the most out of your money? Don’t be romantic about how you made your money. The emotions you feel before, during and after retirement. The top 5 Retirement Planning MISTAKES. Dad Jokes.



Thank you Ross and Dexter for joining me. I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation. Should we start Dad Jokes with Dads?



Weekly Retirement Planning Coffee Talks are an informal way for me to have conversations and answer questions with people even if they are not my clients for free. You are welcome to join the Facebook live or stop by my office for free coffee.



There is no pressure to work with me or become my client by stopping by in person or online.



It is my mission to provide the highest quality advice and service possible to my clients. Therefore, I limit myself to only having 100 or less active clients at all times that I have a fiduciary responsibility to. Even though I limit myself to only working with 100 clients at any given time. It is still important to me to provide as much value as I can to as many good people as possible. Which is why these conversations are so important to me.

Forgive, Be BOLD, and Live! Money Not Math 153 interview with Alison Bernier – Bernier Properties LLC



What an absolute pleasure it was for me to interview Alison and get to know her better. Her faith, perseverance, genuine nature, and kindness are incredible.



I love her Core Values and belief system. Especially when she talks about how the connections you have and how we treat people are more important than the money you have.



From pre-law and nutrition to entrepreneurship I strongly encourage you to set aside 30 minutes to watch or listen to Alison’s story. Plus, I would appreciate it if you helped me celebrate Alison by sharing, commenting, and liking this post.



Please reach out with questions or thoughts for Alison or me.



Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful day.
