What's the most expensive retirement mistake people make—without even realizing it? Waiting too long to start. In this episode, the team dives into why starting early matters more than how much you save, and how the power of compounding can quietly do the heavy lifting over time. From jaw-dropping examples of small contributions turning into seven figures, to real-life stories that bring investing to life, this conversation makes the math (and the motivation) feel real. You'll hear why longevity is changing the retirement equation, how inflation complicates "safe" savings choices, and what to do if you feel behind—whether you're in your 30s, 50s, or even closer to retirement than you'd like. The discussion also explores smart ways to take advantage of employer matches, catch-up contributions, and flexible options for self-employed individuals. One of the biggest takeaways? It's never too early—or too late—to build better habits. Starting now, staying consistent, and letting time work for you can completely change the outcome. If you've ever thought, "I'll get serious about retirement later," this is the episode you'll want to hear before another year slips by.
