    Planning for Longevity: Making the most of your years

    On today's episode, Matt talks about planning for longevity.  As financial planners, we are trained to create plans through age 95 or 100.  There are a lot of nuances to doing so, but there is also a lesson buried in the exercise: you can have higher quality of living through age 95 or 100 by thinking through some key pieces of the puzzle.  What are the things you want to do and people you want to spend time with? What can you do today to prioritize health and wellness?  What type of impact do you want to have with your money, whether that's family, charity, or community?  Money is a piece of the puzzle, but it does not need to be the driving force of your longevity plan.
