It’s Sunday, which means...it’s recap time here on the Retirement Quick Tips Podcast

This week the theme was: 5 Ways To Ruin Your Retirement

In case you missed any episodes, here are the 5 ways you can ruin your retirement:  

• Vacation home
• Divorce
• Health Care Costs
• Underspending
• Elder Fraud

Here’s the bottom line: It’s always best to focus on the things that are within your control rather than the things you can’t control. You can’t control inflation, taxes, or the stock market in retirement, but you can control and take preventative measures to protect yourself against some of the ways you can ruin your retirement this week. 

Tomorrow, come on back, because we’re starting a brand new theme: 2021 Year-End Tax Planning Checklist. I’ll talk about steps you can take now to minimize your taxes before the end of the year. This includes tax-loss harvesting, maximizing your charitable giving benefits even if you itemize, gifting now while you still can, and more.
