Do you have anything put away for retirement? If so, you're doing better than 50% of women and 47% of men ages 55-66, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. Yikes! For today's roundtable, we welcome guest contributor Investopedia Top 100 Advisor in 2019, 2020, and 2021; Certified Financial Planner (CFP); and Retirement Income Certified Professional (RICP) Benjamin Brandt. We welcome Paulette Perhach back from her travels, and Len Penzo joins us from his bunker under flooded Los Angeles. They give their 2 cents on today's alarming headline - which is $0.02 more than almost half of Americans approaching retirement age have set aside, apparently! Double yikes!
In our second part of the retirement savings discussion, we discuss a piece by JL Collins that pushes back against the idea that your home doubles as a retirement nest egg.
In his trivia today, Doug comes through with timely data about expected retirement age - which, as we discuss, doesn't always pan out the way people plan. Flexibility is the name of the game, Stackers!
