Retirement on Mars is Not the Same as Retirement on Venus
As the book title Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus implies, we come from two totally different planets. How we plan for and what we expect from our retirement years varies just as wildly. I’ll share my insight from more than 35 years of walking through the journey to retirement with my financial planning clients.
Key Principles: Gender Factor
Duration: 45 min–1 hour
Reading the Map While Driving is Hazardous to Your Retirement
It’s hard to be on the road to your destination while holding the map up to your face at the same time in order to determine which left or right turn to make, for many obvious reasons. In retirement, you are bound to face similar dangers. You know where you might want to go but you haven’t thought about exactly how you want to get there. This lack of planning will likely have you making wrong turns along the way, wasting valuable time that you would much rather spend at your destination. Retirement is an unfamiliar road and I want to show you the important benefits of studying the map before you start your journey instead of while you are in the middle of it.
Key Principles: Time Lost/Wasted, Planning
Duration: 45 min–1 hour
