About this audiobook
From Anne Lester—former head of retirement solutions for JPMorgan Asset Management and award-winning investor—a wildly simple, step-by-step blueprint that anyone can use to understand retirement savings and investing for the future you deserve. Start living Your Best Financial Life!
Saving for the future can seem anywhere from daunting to downright impossible—especially for Millennials and Gen Zers, who’ve had to contend with economic setbacks, recessions, and layoffs since graduating college. But everyone—yes, even YOU—can find a way to save for your future, and Your Best Financial Life can show you exactly how.
Here, you’ll find actionable steps to demystify the retirement tools at your disposal, an easy-to-use roadmap to ensure you’ve saved enough by retirement age, and help identifying and eliminating wasteful spending in favor of stashing your money where it really counts. You’ll learn how to turn $100 into $1,000 and leverage every single cent you earn to your advantage.
Drawing on decades of investment experience and the latest research, you will:
- Better understand your spending habits and learn where you can improve them
- Discover strategies for paying off student loans or other debts, all while saving for the most expensive parts of life—a wedding, a family, and emergencies (and don’t worry, you’ll have enough left over to have a social life, too!)
- Learn to make 401(k)s, IRAs, and other retirement tools work for you and the goals you’ve set for yourself
Get no-nonsense info on why you suck at saving (and why it isn’t your fault), how to save for a rainy day and retirement (yes, it’s possible to do both!), and diversifying your investments so your future is secure no matter what life throws at you. You’ll have everything you need to lay the groundwork for Your Best Financial Life!
Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
