Make Your Money Matter


Oct 15, 2021

The pandemic reshaped a lot of people’s retirement plans. Some anticipate a lower standard of living in retirement. Others have become more risk averse in the market. And 62% of retirees and near-retirees have cut spending to have a larger nest egg. 

Not to mention, almost everyone is worried about inflation and the impact it will have on their retirement. 

Are these the right actions to take? 

While spending less and saving more is good general advice, you might be able to beat inflation when you have a diversified portfolio. 

In this episode, I share how you can protect your retirement even as inflation runs rampant. And how to best protect your wealth so you don’t need to find a part-time job after you retire. Listen to the episode now. 

Show Highlights Include:

  • Why inflation is more dangerous to your retirement plans than even healthcare costs (4:23) 
  • How focusing on your health when you’re young is a better way to live a lavish life in retirement than only focusing on your wealth (4:35)

  • Why our economy is still healthy (even though we’re living through more volatile times) (9:48)
