38 分钟April isn't just about welcoming warmer weather; it's also Financial Literacy Month, a time to focus on our fiscal health and future. This episode will do just that, and it's an essential listen for anyone looking to secure their golden years with confidence and clarity. A study used posted by the American College of Financial Services used a Retirement Confidence Scale based on the respondent’s self-reported confidence that they will feel financially secure, have enough money to live comfortably, and do a good job handling their investments throughout retirement. Those who scored better in financial literacy were more confident in their retirement. We’ll journey through the critical elements of retirement planning, from understanding different types of IRAs to the intricacies of gift taxes. It's an engaging dialogue that isn’t meant to just inform but also inspire action.
