Securing Your Financial Future with Kerry Hannon

In this conversation, Kerry Hannon, senior columnist and on‑air expert at Yahoo Finance and award‑winning author of 14 books, including Retirement Bites: A Gen X Guide to Securing Your Financial Future. Kerry explains why Gen X has become the “test market” for do‑it‑yourself retirement, how credit cards, student loans, and career instability have left many feeling unprepared, and why she still believes Gen X can absolutely get back on track.​You’ll hear about the shift from pensions to 401(k)s, the squeeze of caring for aging parents while raising kids, and the very real impact of rising healthcare costs and economic uncertainty. Kerry also shares hopeful, highly practical strategies—paying down debt, using retirement calculators, working with fiduciary financial planners, and even creating a vision board—to turn anxiety into action. Along the way, Dori and Kerry explore working longer by choice or necessity, navigating ageism, redeploying your skills, and the power of multigenerational connection at work and in life.Connect with Kerry Hannon:LinkedIn: Kerry HannonWebsite: KerryHannon.comBook: Retirement Bites: A Gen X Guide to Securing Your Financial Future by Kerry Hannon and Jana HeronWhat to do next:Click to grab our free guide, 10 Key Issues to Consider as You Explore Your Retirement TransitionPlease leave a review at Apple Podcasts.Join our Revolutionize Your Retirement group on Facebook.
