Description

This week on the Smart Money Questions podcast, Matt Hausman tackles the big question: Will you be okay after retirement? With a blend of financial expertise and real-life examples, we’ll share a Wall Street Journal article outlining the financial mistakes to avoid as you get within five or ten years of retirement.


 


Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:


  • You always want to have cash on hand because unexpected expenses can pop up at any time.

  • Maximize your retirement contributions to what your budget allows.

  • Understand your Social Security options, especially if you are married.

  • There’s good debt and bad debt, but don’t take on unnecessary debt.

  • You shouldn’t be investing your money as if you’re 25 or 30.

  • Pay attention to what you’re spending on children and grandchildren.
