My favorite retirement podcast!

This podcast is loaded with great info on how to plan wisely for retirement. It’s most useful if you are within five years of retirement or already retired. Jim and Chris will teach you plenty about a variety of topics, and especially about how important it is to consider them all together. Social Security, IRAs and 401(k)s, Roth conversions, budgeting, smart investing, tax planning - it’s all here.
