Ep 80: The Best Way To Measure And Monitor Retirement Preparedness
•
Derek Delaney
What is the top metric that measures whether you're moving in the right direction when it comes to your future retirement? Most people would say the balance of their retirement accounts. That isn't a bad answer, but it's also not the best answer.

In this podcast episode, Derek talks about this in more depth.
