Do the Math! It’s INcome not IFcome!

A recent survey by TD Ameritrade found that 58% of Americans think $1 million will be enough to last through retirement. In this episode, Steve discusses an article from Barron’s magazine about a couple who planned to retire in their early 60s.

The problem is, they were spending about $17K a month, which means they’d run out of their savings in less than five years! When it comes to your retirement, its crucial to do the math!
