Retirement planning isn’t just for people who are near retirement or in retirement already. If you’re in your 20s or 30s, you’re in a prime position to build a great foundation to experience financial independence and retire younger.
Joining me today is Jason Newcomer, certified financial planner and advisor here at Barber Financial Group. In this episode, we’ll share a list of great books geared towards young adults to learn more about the importance of retirement planning early on, we outline the fundamentals that they should be thinking about now, and we’ll share valuable information about the platform we’ve built at Barber Financial to help them get a head start on their retirement planning.
In this podcast interview, you’ll learn:
- How the massive gaps that still exist comes to financial literacy in our education system can have significant impacts on young peoples’ futures.
- Why CNBC, Fox Business, and other outlets aren’t actually geared toward people outside of the financial industry.
- Tools you can use to get a grip on your cash flow, budgeting, and forecasting future potential expenses.
- Advice for anyone starting a job with a retirement plan or 401(k) match.
- Why you should never carry a balance on your credit cards - and how to prevent this from happening.
- Why taking 401(k) withdrawals before retirement should be seen as a last resort.
- How to start investing - and why you don’t need to obsess over the day-to-day or participate in high-risk, speculative stocks or cryptocurrency to generate wealth.
