Ernesto: How do we deal with this unknown? And the best way is to ask ourselves a basic question. Do you fear more that you're going to die young and wealthy, but devoid of experiences? Or are you afraid that you'll die old and broke? My father died at the age of 40 of a cerebral aneurysm. He passed up promotions and jobs where he could have made lots of money for other jobs so he could enjoy life today.
#418: When Jordan Grumet was a child, his dad died unexpectedly.
That was decades ago.
Jordan is a father today, but he thinks often about the possibility of dying young.
And he wonders how to balance enjoying today vs. saving for tomorrow, given that none of us know how long we’ll be on this earth.

Jordan Grumet, a hospice doctor and host of the Earn and Invest podcast, discusses this in today’s episode.
