Every Journey Requires a Plan

On today’s episode of Talking Real Money, Tom and Don talk about the importance of having a retirement plan. Retiring is a journey that you need to plan for, because not planning can lead to all kinds of mistakes. They also answer questions and give advice on setting up IRAs for your grandchildren, whether you can have too much money in your regular IRA, and whether you can avoid paying capital gains. We also discuss when contributions to SEP-IRA are still allowed and understanding when to pay off debt versus saving for retirement.
