Description

This week on The Retirement Matters Podcast, Dale discusses 3 different pieces of advice that he has recently come across on an USA Today article that was written by a gentleman who is all over the financial news and who holds himself out as a financial expert. The problem with this is, is that he gets into someone else's lane when he begins to discuss how to invest for retirement rather than sticking with his own specialty of not spending more than you make and making sure you stay out of debt. He will give advice on why or why not you should be purchasing mutual funds. He also talks about when you should begin investing for retirement, and what interest rate to expect when you do begin investing for retirement. Dale goes on to address those 3 pieces advise and why it is important to be able to apply it to your own individual retirement plan.
