HerMoney with Jean Chatzky

Patreon PREVIEW: "Can You Rebuild Your Retirement at 68?"


Listen Later

Today on the HerMoney Podcast, we're bringing you something special — an exclusive preview of one of our brand-new Patreon-only AMA episodes. In this series, Jean sits down one-on-one with real listeners to talk through their biggest financial questions in real time.

In this episode, you’ll meet Donna, a 68-year-old listener who is rebuilding her financial life from scratch after the end of a 30-year marriage, years out of the workforce, and time spent navigating disability. Now she’s back at work full-time — earning nearly double what she made before — and she’s trying to figure out how to use this new income to build the retirement she wants.

Jean and Donna talk through:

  • What it feels like to step back into the workforce at 68
  • How to choose between Roth and traditional contributions
  • How to invest when you feel “behind” on retirement
  • What to do when advisors tell you your portfolio is “too small.”
  • And how to finally create a plan after years of trying
  • You’ll hear the first half of their conversation here. To listen to the full episode — plus all of our new bonus content — join us on Patreon.
