This week on the Smart Money Questions podcast, Matt Hausman tackles the big question: Will you be okay after retirement? With a blend of financial expertise and real-life examples, we’ll share a Wall Street Journal article outlining the financial mistakes to avoid as you get within five or ten years of retirement.   Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode: You always want to have cash on hand because unexpected expenses can pop up at any time. Maximize your retirement contributions to what your budget allows. Understand your Social Security options, especially if you are married. There’s good debt and bad debt, but don’t take on unnecessary debt. You shouldn’t be investing your money as if you’re 25 or 30. Pay attention to what you’re spending on children and grandchildren.   Want to contact us?
