Sunshine in Orange County has been waiting patiently since January for a full Retirement Spitball Analysis: how are her assumptions for rates of return and inflation, her plans for Roth conversions, her asset allocation and asset location, her tax planning, her retirement income and retirement spending plans, and so much more? What missed opportunities is she overlooking?

So many excellent Retirement Spitball requests have come in that Your Money, Your Wealth® hosts, Joe Anderson CFP®, and Big Al Clopine CPA can't handle them all.

On these bonus episodes, called YMYW Extra, producer Andi Last enlists the help of the experienced professionals on Joe and Big Al's team at Pure Financial Advisors. In today's YMYW Extra number 1, thanks to David Cook, CFP® from Pure Financial's San Diego headquarters, Sunshine finally gets her Retirement Spitball Analysis.
