Navigating Alzheimer's and Financial Planning

According to research, the median happy retiree needs $700,000 to get to retirement. But how do you get there? That’s where stocks come in. In this episode of Ask an Advisor, fee-only fiduciary financial advisor Wes Moss explains why stocks (mostly) are so important to your portfolio and the “dry powder” you need to stay confident in the market. Later in the show, Wes talks about FOMO (fear of missing out) Freddy and why you should ignore him at all costs when looking at your investments.

Plus, Christa shares your #AskWes questions and Wes gives his take. All this and more on the January 21, 2025, Ask an Advisor episode of the Clark Howard podcast. Submit your questions at clark.com/ask.
