Don Sowa's MoneyTalkWe live in an increasingly frictionless world, with automatic bill payments and 401(k) contributions, but too few people apply this strategy to their emergency savings, and the result has been an increased rate of early retirement distributions for unforeseen expenses. Donna discusses the prevailing problem of 401(k) leakage, and how automating your savings can help you avoid it. Also on MoneyTalk, the benefits of a trust, and how to know if you need long-term care insurance.
