This week coaches Bonnie Blackstone and Remi Gibbs had a great conversation with financial coach Judy Easley-Marshall. The discussion centered around what to do with your finances when retirement is on the horizon. Most of us aren't rich and we weren't taught how to save for retirement, because our parents didn't generally have to with pensions. Judy's top suggestions are to start with your debt, max out your 401K to the match point from your employer and/or invest in a Roth IRA, invest in mutual funds, and get a side hustle if you need extra funds to pay off debt or contribute to your savings. We have to be real with ourselves about our financial situation, stop being afraid, and build a strategy to get us where we need to go. And lastly, make sure to celebrate your successes!
