Talking to Women
In my journeys across the country, I have talked to hundreds and thousands of women. All are about retirement age. And almost all are concerned about their future as they become a retiree. They relish the idea of leaving their jobs. As you can imagine, that isn’t a problem for most.
But once they leave the job, they have no clear direction on what they want to do next. And definitely no real handle on how they will pay for something like 30 years of retirement living.
What they haven’t done is to sit down and create a plan. They haven’t figured out answers to their burning questions. And frankly, they don’t really know who to turn to get that information. Hopefully, my first book, What’s the Deal with Retirement Planning for Women will give you just the start you need.
