I read a lot of business, financial, and investment advice articles ever month. It is extremely difficult to get my attention and for me to learn something that I can apply to my client relationships. Well, this article got my attention. It taught me something that I will help my clients more clearly understand.
Retirement obstacles for Chicagoland families are very scary and very real. The financial, investment and economic numbers in this article are very similar to those I hear about from my clients every day. If you read any information in this article that you would like explained to fit your own retirement plan circumstances, just give me a call. 630-233-6060. I will respond to your question and find you the best resource as soon as I can.
