Bitcoin, Investing and Retirement Planning

This “Own Your Retirement Show” episode covers a wide range of financial and retirement planning topics, with hosts Mark Elliott and Josh Bretl, President of FSR Wealth Strategies, leading the discussion.

The duo kicked off the show with a lighthearted conversation about Josh’s family’s trip to see the musical Annie, tying themes of optimism from the show’s music to the challenges faced by retirees in navigating market volatility and changing financial landscapes.

The discussion shifts to broader financial themes such as legislative risk, market dynamics, and retirement income planning.

With their wealth of expertise, the hosts underscored the significance of personalization and strategic diversification in retirement planning, wrapping up with a call to action for listeners to work with professionals to ensure their financial plans remain solid regardless of external shifts.
