When you’re deciding where to save your retirement dollars, some investments might seem like a “can’t miss.” But even the most familiar names can fade. Think about Sears. At one point, stores were everywhere, now there are only a handful. And real estate? Some years it feels like a gold mine, other years… not so much.

On this week’s episode, Laurel Steward and Gerald Green talk through how they look at investments for retirement and the practical steps they use at Mattson Financial Services to help clients keep their plans on track. It’s a relaxed, honest conversation about what really matters when you’re trying to protect your lifestyle and make smart choices with the wealth you’ve built.
