IRQ audio 5: Career-long retirement planning for the interventional radiologist

And as with any career path, the closer you get to the end of your career, the more natural it is to start wondering, “What comes next?” Surely retirement will bring its own challenges and joys, but how do you know when you’re ready to retire?
