Will Your Money Outlast You?
One of the fears of growing old is running out of money before you die. That’s why this Before I Die New Mexico Festival presentation with Steve Margulin, CPA, CFP® is so important. In this video, “Don’t let your savings suffer a pre-mature death,” Steve shares valuable information about how to make your money last into your golden years and the elements of successful aging.
Among the topics covered are the three phases of retirement (The Go-Go Years, The Slow-Go Years, and The No-Go Years), tips for making your elder years healthy, long term care considerations, why being the Bank of Mom and Dad is bad for your kids and your finances, the financial perils of fraud, grey divorces, and inflation, and figuring out how much money you need to retire.
