February 27, 2023

This week Paddy chats with Jason Parker. Jason is the author of Sound Retirement Planning, the host of the Sound Retirement Radio podcast, a frequent guest on ABC, NBC and Fox, and the inventor of the Retirement Budget Calculator.

Key talking points:

  • Key things to know if you'll be ok in retirement
  • Retirement Budget Calculator
  • Retirement cashflow
  • What questions should you be asking about your money when you retire
  • Temporary safety vs. long-term strategy
  • Reinforcing your discipline and understanding
  • Bucket Strategy

I hope you enjoy the conversation.
