PPR 256: Deal of The Week - Wardrobe Malfunction

Our economy is consumer driven which means that without people spending money on consumable and disposable things, the economy grinds to a halt. We have been conditioned not to associate or compare consumer purchases with investments. I meet people all the time who are proud of their 20% return on their real estate investment but they don't recognize the 70% loss they incurred on the watch they are wearing. Thanks to the death of private pensions, the devaluation of Social Security benefits and other undeniable retirement factors such as inflation and increased taxes, America is now in a retirement income crisis. Kraig Strom, the host of Personal Pension Radio, is focused on helping you pack your bags for both halves of the retirement journey.  Kraig's mission is help you build & protect your wealth and lifestyle today and generationally. Along the way, Kraig is ready to assist with all matters related to your financial wellbeing as well as your business and family legal needs.  Optimizing Retirement income and protecting your legacy does not happen with a product.
