Old Money v. New Money
New money is money earned while you're still working and saving in your retirement accounts whenever you get paid. Old money refers to the investments you already have. One of the biggest mistakes I see as a retirement planner and financial advisor is not differentiating between how one invests new money compared to old money. Because they should be invested differently. Listen in to find out how. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LET’S CONNECT Show website: https://www.providencefinancialpodcast.com Find us at: https://www.providencefinancialinc.com Get to know Anthony: https://anthonysaccaro.com Anthony's book: https://morelifethanmoneybook.com Amazon Author Page: https://amazon/author/anthonysaccaro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/AnthonySaccaro/featured Radio: https://www.providencefinancialradio.com Yelp: https://www.yelp.com/biz/providence-financial-and-insurance-services-inc-woodland-hills Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Providence.FinancialInc/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AnthonySaccaro LinkedIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonysaccaro/

Stressing Out Right Before Retirement
Are you on the brink of retirement and maybe starting to get a little bit nervous? If so, it's important to know that you're not alone. I just recently spoke with a brand new client of ours that I had met three or four months ago. He decided to become a client based on our communications and the fact that we can help him retire and he's going to be retiring in December. And four months ago when we spoke, he was prepared, he was planned, he wanted us to help him. We set up a nice plan. We talked about everything that he needs to know so he could retire comfortably. That's the reason that he hired us because he knows that at Providence Financial, that's what we do. We help people retire and make sure that their investments are set up properly so they can get the income they need in retirement without having to worry about running out of money. And after bringing him on board and several conversations and meetings, everything was well. Well interestingly enough, I just recently got a frantic voicemail from him and the message was clear that he was actually just afraid to retire. Listen in to find out why that was and how we addressed his worries. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LET’S CONNECT Show website: https://www.providencefinancialpodcast.com Find us at: https://www.providencefinancialinc.com Get to know Anthony: https://anthonysaccaro.com Anthony's book: https://morelifethanmoneybook.com Amazon Author Page: https://amazon/author/anthonysaccaro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/AnthonySaccaro/featured Radio: https://www.providencefinancialradio.com Yelp: https://www.yelp.com/biz/providence-financial-and-insurance-services-inc-woodland-hills Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Providence.FinancialInc/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AnthonySaccaro LinkedIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonysaccaro/

Investing in Real Estate for Retirement
Retiring well is all about having enough income. Here at Providence Financial we focus on investing for a lasting income you can count on, without any worry that it will ever run out. Once in a while we'll get questions about investing in real estate and how that might fit into one's retirement plan. We also get people who want out of the headaches which can come with investing in real estate, such as finding good renters and handling bad ones, property devaluing and so on. The good news, we can help those people create the same income by selling the real estate and investing the proceeds properly, even after accounting for any taxes that may need to be paid. In this show, I give you 4 pros and 4 cons of real estate investments as a retirement strategy.

The Magic Word for a Worry-Free Retirement - Episode #300
Here we are, episode #300 today! A special milestone that I wanted to mark by thanking all of you who have been loyal listeners over the past 4 seasons. I hope that you're finding value in this content and are using it to help you navigate your own retirement waters in a less stressful way. I thought about what I'd like to share in this episode and the one word that came to mind was this: predictability. Why? Because it's the #1 way to ensure you don't live your retirement worried. If you don't know what's going to happen, where your income will come from, how your investments will weather the market storms, how long your savings will last, how you will be cared for if a serious illness comes along -- then retirement is far from worry-free. So how do we make our retirement predictable?
