With inflation being the highest it has been in over 40 years, retirees especially need to analyze the impact inflation has on their retirement.

2022 has been a tough year all around for people. Headwinds such as the lingering effects of COVID-19, rising interest rates, rising inflation, rising commodity prices, the Russia/Ukraine War, falling stock and bond market, and then an economy that seems to be having a hangover in general. It has been a lot. With all this going on, it has been hard to conceptualize how it all works together and how it affects you financially (you as an everyday person). In this episode, I'm breaking down three observations I've seen in the investment markets and following that up with what we can learn from those observations. I try to explore these observations and lessons learned through a greater financial planning lens for the everyday person.
Volatility has continued through the first half of 2022 in all equity and bond markets. The economy itself has numerous headwinds as well. Therefore, how are we to navigate these as individual investors? In my effort to try to answer this question, I bring you an exclusive conversation with Economist, Bryce Gill of First Trust. My goal is to always keep the market and economy in perspective by looking beyond headlines and analyzing facts. And in this conversation, we do just that.
