Marcia Mantell: Lasagna Style Income Planning

In this episode, The Annuity Man and Marcia Mantell discuss: 

Retirement planning is personal  The uncomfortable “unexpected.”  Who are the best financial advisors?  Lasagna style income planning

 

Key Takeaways: 

Friends and neighbors are not your friends when it comes to retirement decision-making. It’s all completely personal.  If there’s anything that’s not unexpected, it’s that we know we are one day going to die. We just don’t like to talk about it; we don’t like to think about it.  The best financial advisors are those that aren’t born from money. They understand what it’s like to come from a family that doesn’t have much, so they’ve been repeatedly taught in their youth to respect and value money.  If you can make lasagna, you can also make a retirement plan. Retirement planning is a layered process; there has to be a plan in place, you can’t randomly do it, and there’s a myriad of ingredients.  

 

"Starting early is the key. If you miss 50, start wherever you are today. This is not a weekend project - it’s too hard and complicated. The best thing we can all do is take ownership, we have to understand social security to make good decisions, and we have to understand medicare." —  Marcia Mantell.
