This show is for pre-retirees and planners aged 45–65 with $100K–$1M investable assets who need decade-scale decisions in plain language—not day-trading hype or opening-bell chatter. We own 401(k), IRA, Roth vs traditional, Social Security timing, RMDs, Medicare basics, and withdrawal sequencing. We never compete with on S&P/Fed/CPI intraday catalysts, or with on avalanche/snowball payoff (cross-link instead). Each episode is one decision tree with dollar examples, not stock picks. Topics include: Retirement Planning. Audio for this show is produced with AI assistance. Episodes are researched, scripted, and reviewed for accuracy before release.
