What does your dream retirement look like? Sipping Piña Coladas on a beach sounds great, but for the average American, planning for retirement can be a daunting task that many people put off for later. Never fear, your friendly retirement planner Troy Yeaple is here! In this episode of The Beef Podcast, we chat with Troy about his family-run retirement planning company, and he shares some motivating ways to get more bang for your hard-won buck during this time.

Many people are focused on growth and yield, but today we are warned against overlooking the importance of timing, and the 3 biggest drains: health, tax, and social security.
