Is Financial Software Giving You False Retirement Confidence? - 548
About this episode
Wendy and Joe in Colorado ran the numbers, and their financial planning software says they'll have over $10 million when they pass. Wendy's wondering if they should continue converting to Roth while working, despite their high tax bracket. But has the software lulled them into a false sense of security? That's today on Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast number 548 with Joe Anderson, CFP® and Big Al Clopine, CPA. Plus, which is smarter for "Kurt and Courtney" in New York: aggressively paying down their mortgage, or putting their extra money to work in the market before Kurt retires early in 20 years? Finally, when does it stop making sense for high-earners "Tim and Faith" in Boston to contribute to their Roth? The fellas duke it out on this one (and we figure out, based on our earliest musical interests, which era we're each children of.)
