From the publisher's feed
Align Your Retirement is the retirement podcast for women in their 40s and 50s who've done a lot right with their money and know retirement is too important to wing.
If you're the CFO of your…
"I'll run the real numbers after Q4."
"My 401(k) is fine. I check it."
"I'll handle Social Security timing when I'm closer."
"The inherited IRA can sit in cash until I figure out the 10-year rule."
Every one of those voices is quietly moving your retirement date. Each episode covers one retirement decision that costs more than it needs to when you carry it alone, like Social Security timing, Roth conversion windows, sequence of returns risk, tax-efficient withdrawals, pension elections, asset location, the inherited IRA, and health care before Medicare.
Hosted by Hazel Secco, CFP®, CDFA®, founder of Align Financial Solutions, a fee-only fiduciary firm in Hoboken, New Jersey, that helps high-net-worth women bring retirement, equity compensation, tax, and estate planning into one plan. We work with clients across the country virtually.
