Some of the topics Matt covers in this webinar include: Upcoming election Current corporate earnings outlook Recession risks Health of the jobs market What the leading indicators are telling us Our expectations for the stock market for 2020

So on today’s show, we’re going to move from the high-level view of the economy down to the trenches here at Keen Wealth. These are the strategies we use for both our working and retired clients during volatile times.

At Keen Wealth, we stress planning for retirement as far in advance as possible so that our clients will be ahead of the game. We encourage clients to create a retirement blueprint with measurable milestones and specific achievable goals. And we help them implement personalized strategies for disciplined wealth-building over time.

When is the best time to start planning for retirement? Right now! Whether you’re new to the workforce or just starting to see retirement on the horizon, you never know what tomorrow is going to bring. Hopefully you’re able to work as long as you want, doing something that’s fulfilling until you’re ready to retire.

Whether you’re 30 or 60 years old, involving a financial advisor in your retirement planning is a smart move. But not all financial advisors are created equal. Some advisors are more interested in making money or meeting employer metrics. It’s important you know how to steer clear of these folks and find an advisor who truly has your best interests in mind.

It’s easy to slip into this kind of thinking when you read about the biggest companies in the world achieving a trillion-dollar valuation. Once upon a time, you could have bought that stock for peanuts, and today you’d be sitting on a fortune!
