Remember when you were a kid, always asking 'How do you know?' about everything, like why the sky is blue or where the sun goes at night? That curiosity doesn't go away as we get older; it just turns into different questions, like the ones we face when planning for retirement. Today, we're digging into the 'How Do You Knows' of retirement planning.

This is a topic we care a lot about because John is always encouraging his children to be curious. It's important to foster that sense of curiosity in our kids as well as our clients as well. We encourage questions and would rather you ask them than to just wonder what the answer might be.
