Throughout all the podcast episodes we’ve done on this topic, there’s one common sentiment that always comes up as the first thing to do when planning your retirement. It’s thinking about what you want to do—how do you want to fill your days in retirement? Whether it’s travel, spending time with family or focusing on your hobbies, Monica explains how this decision can change your needs and, possibly, the way you’re saving.
Monica also stresses the importance of involving others in your life in the planning process. This will help make sure you’re on the same page with your partner when it comes to how you’ll spend your retirement years together. And, when it comes to your family unit (children, siblings, etc.), involving them in the process can help clarify your wishes. Watch the video above for more on this topic.
