“Having a purpose in your life and figuring out what it is you want to accomplish is so important.”

Summary:

Planning for retirement is a conversation that could include anything from 401ks, the stock market, even NFTs (if you can get around to learning about them!). It can also be associated with a lot of anxiety or worry—some of which can certainly come from not understanding what you’re looking at when it comes to retirement and finances. Even more so when the sale of your business is complicating the process. Luckily, Jim Fitts is just the man you need to talk to. On today’s episode, we talk about wealth planning, how retirement might look different if you were a business owner, and the valuable “T-Minus 5” rule.
