Oil prices, interest rates, inflation and global uncertainty can all influence the markets—but reacting to every headline may create more problems than it solves.
How do Federal Reserve decisions affect the economy? Why is inflation especially dangerous for retirees living on a fixed income? And how can you prepare for risks involving taxes, Social Security and the rising cost of living without trying to predict exactly what happens next?
We also discuss why traditional and Roth retirement accounts each have a role to play—and why the right choice depends on more than a simple rule of thumb.
