For worry free income, preservation and indexed growth in retirement with no market losses and no management fees, today’s NEXT GENERATION uncapped retirement index annuities with income riders are becoming the asset of choice for 401k and IRA rollovers. Once upon a time, government bonds could provide the security and financial peace of mind required in retirement. In fact, “living off your savings” was the time-honored approach to retirement. But when bank CDs and bonds are paying zero or near zero, and that’s your only plan, you are no longer LIVING off savings….You’re just spending down your principal haphazardly! You are just paying your principal back to yourself, with little or no interest, and no guarantee of what happens when you run out. Can anyone seriously consider retiring on a bond or bank account paying less than one or two percent, with inflation headed to three or four percent annually one day? Today, we’ll show you how to avoid poor retirement income planning A power-packed show you don’t want to miss! MASTERING MONEY is on the air!!!

Strenuous, stressful work can wear people down and damage their health. In that case, RETIRING can relax and reinvigorate their lives. They finally have time to follow their passions and pursue activities that enrich their lives. But for others, the risks of retirement can involve bad health and even early death, says the Wall Street Journal. Although you might think that retiring would give a person more time to go to the gym, watch their diets, take longer walks, and work on their physical fitness, the opposite often occurs. Many retirees become sedentary and watch too much TV. They eat too much. They drink too much. They smoke too much. And, sometimes, they die too soon. Researchers find that without the purpose of fulfilling work, many retirees can feel adrift and become depressed. We’ll review the Journal’s statistics on retirement that may SHOCK you! Then health insurance expert Shelley Grandidge joins us for the Q & A. Don’t miss it…MASTERING MONEY is on the air!!

How can you bypass the stress and make investing more simple. Today, we’ll do an educational review of how various investment approaches work, and help you decide which makes the most sense for you–with specific recommendations.

As you get closer to the day when your salary goes away… and everything you’ve accumulated up to this point has to be the source of ALL your future paydays… your decisions need to become more accurate. You can’t afford the mistakes you made thirty years ago. On an increasing basis, the news literature in the financial world states that you will need more than a million dollars to retire and to make sure you don’t go broke. A million is a nice sum of money, but unless you properly diversify, allocate, and conserve it, you run the risk of seeing it get cut in half by a combination of market declines, income withdrawals, RMDs, taxes, politics, fees, inflation, and poor timing when it comes to retirement. Today, we”ll tell you the story of Doug and Diane, who found out the hard way. Then Medicare Specialist Shelley Grandidge joins us for the Q & A.

The demand for annuities is strong despite the desperate attempts at unfounded criticism by promoters of front-loaded mutual funds– like radio host Dave Ramsey, and elite TV billionaires like Ken Fisher– who seem to think they are smarter than you! As we have said many times, Ramsey has done noble work helping younger middle earning Americans get out of debt. We applaud him. But his advice for retirees has been called into question by many in the financial industry. Every year, for the past ten years, an average of $200 billion dollars in annuities have been acquired. Memo to Dave Ramsey and Ken Fisher: SOMEBODY is buying them, and most of them are pretty darn SMART!! We’ll review why annuities are so often used for 40k rollovers, then Shelley Grandidge joins us for the Q & A. A big show you don’t want to miss MASTERING MONEY is on the air!!!!
