1/23/16 - Market Volatility, Annuities, Roth IRA, Retirement Readiness

On this week’s Hanson McClain’s Money Matters: Scott and Pat welcome new listeners in the Los Angeles (KEIB), San Diego (KOGO) and Denver (KOA) markets! The episode begins with a discussion about the recent volatility in the financial markets. We then field a call regarding fixed annuities from a relative of a person with Alzheimer’s. Next, we take a call about rolling over assets from a traditional 401K into a Roth near retirement in a bear market. Lastly, we take a call from someone seeking to know if they are financially ready to retire this year.   Scott Hanson and Pat McClain have been hosting Hanson McClain’s Money Matters radio show for 20 years, and have answered questions from thousands of callers on a variety of financial topics.    Ask a question at moneymatters.com, or email Scott and Pat at [email protected].
