Imagine being told you only have 12 months to live. What would you do with your time? Today on Your Money, Your Wealth podcast number 532, Big Al Clopine, CPA and Executive Producer Andi Last are thrilled to welcome Jonathan Clements back for his fourth appearance. For thirty years, Jonathan has been known for his personal finance writing: in his column “Getting Going,” which appeared in the Wall Street Journal over 1,000 times starting in 1994, on his website HumbleDollar.com, and in his many acclaimed books. About a year ago, Jonathan Clements was diagnosed with a rare form of lung cancer and was told he had about a year to live. Today we’re celebrating the fact that he is still here with us, and we’re inspired by his decision to use his precious time to launch The Jonathan Clements Getting Going on Savings Initiative. Watch or listen to find out how you can get a free Kindle copy of Jonathan’s new book, and how you can help Jonathan pay it forward for the next generation.
