Shownotes Transcript

Retirement is a time when people have a right to enjoy their golden years with peace of mind, knowing they have secured their financial future. For many, this includes having a stable income to help meet their needs and expenses. But with inflation on the rise, how can retirees have the financial security and peace of mind they need to enjoy the later years of their lives?

In addition to being a Certified Financial Planner, Robert is a Retirement Income Certified Professional.
