Got your bucket list ready to go? Been fattening up your 401k, maxing out your IRA contributions, calculating your social security pay-out? Then you’re ready to talk amongst friends, which is what The Retirement Equals Freedom Podcast is all about. This biweekly conversation features Josh Bretl, a CPA, Senior Advisor, and owner of FSR Wealth Strategies who shares financial planning tips and informative insights gleaned over two decades of helping clients achieve their retirement dreams. A lot of it has to do with a mindset shift from saving to spending – not as easy as you might imagine! Josh’s irreverent co-host and long-time pal Dave (“The Dave”) Schmidt may occasionally divert us into comical flights of fancy, but each episode is mostly about the rock-solid practical tools we need for planning – and living – our best lives. So tune in to find out how to maximize freedom beyond that last pay check. And stick around to learn why 90s music is forever, high school hoops are a metaphor for life and classic comfort foods (can you say Chocolate Puddin’ Cakes five times fast?) never get old!
