Strategy Points:

6:16 Too Many Decisions to Make

  • If you don’t feel comfortable with what you are trying to do, you need to sit down with a professional to discuss retirement planning.
  • There are a lot of different philosophies on how to build your retirement strategy.
  • Instead of “right” decisions, there are often better and more economical decisions.
  • The laws change, the opportunities change, your life changes. You have to have some flexibility.
10:00 Too Much Research
  • Becoming overly educated on so many different decisions can cause you to feel overwhelmed.
  • Doing too much research is like counting the blades of grass in your yard.
  • Don’t get caught up on the minutiae, think about the bigger picture. Always keep the end goals in mind.
13:34 General Confusion
  • Math is not money, and money is not math.
  • You are probably pretty smart and good at what you do, but can you experience the same success in retirement planning when that’s not your specialty and your life’s work?
  • Look at tax consultants as an example. The rules changes every year, so even they get confused if they’re not staying abreast of the most recent changes.
15:13 You Don’t Like Talking About Money
  • Perhaps you have a past perception that money is a dirty topic.
  • Realize it now, you can’t get around talking about money.
  • The decisions about money are just as important as the money itself.
16:45 Traumatic Life Events Can Stall Decisions
  • Divorces, illnesses and death can be devastating events that might leave you unable to make proper decisions about your own or a loved one’s money.
  • You might be vulnerable following these times, so don’t do anything drastic for at least a year.
  • You need to recover emotionally before you can make these major decisions.
22:18 Getting to Know You: Movies
  • What movie can you watch multiple times and enjoy it every time?
  • Good storylines, casting, and cinematography influence J’Neanne’s favorites.
31:34 Mailbag: Inheriting Rental Property
  • Harriet says her aunt died recently, leaving her to inherit a rental property unexpectedly. What should she do?
  • Realize your aunt wanted you to have it for your opportunity, you don’t have to keep it.
  • Do you want to be a homeowner and deal with the responsibilities of a landlord?
  • If not, you either hire someone as a property manager or sell the property.
