Did you think this was irrelevant? It\u2019s ok, so did Amanda.  It turns out that it\u2019s never too soon to start thinking about your future, especially when we don\u2019t know what it\u2019s going to look like! The world is continuously changing and it\u2019s important to take yourself into consideration (like, really important).  Jo-Ann and Matt talk about the benefits of working with a fiduciary and understanding that you have more options than you think-- even within your 401(K). There is no right way to do this, so it\u2019s really a matter of doing what\u2019s best for you. Some of you might be thinking, \u201cWell, how the heck do I know what that is?\u201d And here\u2019s your answer: ask for help and inform yourself, there are people that want to help you, you just have to take the first step. That doesn\u2019t mean diving headfirst into apps that claim to help you invest on credit, but doing some research to figure out what might be a good move for you. There is no \u2018one size fits all\u2019 formula when it comes to retirement, unfortunately, but this episode will clear up some of the secrecy surrounding the access to information and the reiteration that financial literacy has been underrepresented in our education system.  This week\u2019s episode is brought to you by Masks By Bree, handmade masks from the Hudson Valley.
