This episode starts with a “what if I know nothing” approach, and built up to a much more sophisticated Q and A for an investor with a $10M portfolio.
That’s what I love about these >600 episodes. There is always a new nugget you can build upon if you can stomach the redundancy (or fast forward). It reinforces sound advice about Timeframe and building the 3 key buckets: Contingency, liquidity, and growth funds.
Thanks Roger
Roger's personality and speaking style make this podcast the most pleasant to listen to. While he seems very relatable and down to earth, he shares very helpful insights regarding financials and other retirement aspects. He covers multiple topics in each episode and keeps the pace lively, but easy to digest. This is my absolute favorite podcast!

Knowledgeable professional with an earnest desire to help us not hurt ourselves when we retire
There are a lot of podcasts out there, but if you’re starting the think about retirement (or have already retired) this is my favorite. Roger covers the technical and emotional needs as one shifts from accumulating wealth to decumulation, and never loses focus on enjoying that retirement.
