Ari Taublieb is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and Vice President of Root Financial Partners. Ari Taublieb, CFP®, MBA specializes in helping people navigate an early retirement. I get it...retirement sounds overwhelming (an early retirement may sound particularly overwhelming)! Does it just feel like there's so much to consider and you just want to make sure you're doing everything you can to set yourself up right? If I may ask...why do YOU want to retire early? Do you want to travel? Have you just had enough of work? Do you want to spend more time with family (or on hobbies you've been putting off)? I created this podcast to help you know when work is now optional because you have a financial strategy that tells you when you can retire. You will learn all the investing tips in this financial podcast to set up the right portfolio for your goals. You may love what you do - and if that's you, great! I'm not saying stop working. But, I am saying, wouldn't it be nice to know when you didn't HAVE to work any more? When you would only go to work because you enjoyed it (crazy concept, I know). This is the ultimate retirement podcast (specifically, early retirement!). Retiring early, also known simply as "financial freedom", is having the ability to do what you care most about, MORE!I don't want you to work unless you ENJOY it (finances aside, for just a moment)! My goal of this podcast is to give you all the tips and strategies so you can retire EARLY. Retirement planning, investing, personal finance, tax strategy, and you'll hear case studies from my clients and exactly how I've helped them navigate the transition into retirement. What are the right investment accounts to have in retirement? I want retirement planning to be simple for you so that you can retire early and maximize your retirement goals. Become a retiree and enjoy everything you've been waiting for your whole life (and start practicing retirement today)! I release new episodes every Monday with all the strategies (you'll learn that I love examples) so you can maximize your return on life (we use money to do this).

Ever wondered why your neighbor's retirement plan looks so different from yours, despite having a similar income? It's because there's no universal strategy for asset allocation in retirement, and we're here to unravel the mysteries behind personalizing your financial future. This episode is filled with insights and anecdotes, including the tale of an 83-year-old who teaches us that pensions, social security, and other income sources can significantly influence how we manage our investments. From the debate over the traditional 60/40 equity-to-bond split to the savvy placement of assets for tax efficiency, we're guiding you through a financial landscape where "one size fits all" simply doesn't cut it.

Strap in as we navigate the twisting roads of retirement accounts, tackling the myths surrounding Required Minimum Distributions and uncovering why embracing growth—in spite of higher taxes—can be a boon for your golden years. The conversation gets personal as we discuss the varying levels of comfort with investment risk and how it shapes our approach to work, life, and happiness post-retirement. I'm thrilled to share stories from our clients that bring to light the bespoke nature of financial planning. Join us for an episode that's as much about heart as it is about numbers, where we share the commitment of our firm to provide individualized advice, free from the constraints of one-size-fits-all financial institutions.
