​​The Childfree Wealth Podcast, hosted by Bri Conn and Dr. Jay Zigmont, CFP®, is a financial and lifestyle podcast that explores the unique perspectives and concerns of childfree individuals and couples. Join as they discuss Essential Retirement Planning for Solo Agers by Sara Zeff Geber, PhD.

While Bri thinks the title is a bit misleading, and discusses the emphasis placed on couples. She challenges the notion that those in dual-income households will eventually be solo agers, noting the resource disparities between DINKS and true soloists. Dr. Jay gets caught in the introvert-extrovert battle when it comes to community building & the ethical dilemma of depending on friends to care for you. Throughout the book you’ll find three common themes: community, health, & planning. While you may not be actively thinking about aging, Dr. Geber has also provided a variety of resources that can be helpful in preparing for the future.
