Can You Retire at Age 57 and Spend Big? - 543
About this episode
Is it possible, common even, to spend a lot early in retirement to celebrate your financial freedom? How do Roth conversions and withdrawals work if you do plan to call it quits around age 57, and spend big early on? Should you convert retirement funds to tax-free Roth after you stop working? Joe Anderson CFP® and our special guest co-host, Marc Horner, CFP® spitball on these topics for "Beavis and Daria" in Texas and "Clark Kent" in Pennsylvania, today on Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast number 543. Plus, the sooner 56-year-old "Tony Soprano" in New Jersey can retire, the better. What tips do Joe and Marc have for him? By the way, Marc is one of the newest principals here at Pure Financial Advisors. He's the founder of Fairhaven Wealth Management, which has just become the newest Pure Financial Advisors Chicagoland office in Wheaton, Illinois - so help us welcome him for his YMYW debut.
