Episode 40: You’re retired (or almost retired) … now what?

Everyday Wealth

When you’re approaching retirement, you have to make many decisions that will affect your finances – either positively or negatively. In this episode of Edelman Financial Engines’ Everyday Wealth™, Jean and wealth planner Isabel Barrow discuss some of the most important decisions that could cost you if you don’t plan for them, including what to do with your mortgage, and what to consider before traveling . Later, the end of the year is coming and so are opportunities to harvest some of your losses to help save you money on taxes. Jean and Isabel talk about what tax-loss harvesting is and how it may help you.

Ms. Chatzky and Ms. O’Brien receive cash compensation for acting as hosts of the Everyday Wealth radio show and podcast and for related activities and therefore have an incentive to endorse Edelman Financial Engines and its planners. That compensation is a fixed sum paid on an annual basis; and reimbursement for certain expenses. The amount paid each year does not vary, is not based on show content or any results-dependent factors (e.g., popularity of the show).
