Nightly Business Report launching new series on retirement readiness
In case you haven't heard (like you've been hiding under a rock somewhere), 78-million baby boomers are on the cusp of retirement. That means we'll be hearing lots about this subject. PBS' Nightly Business Report is launching a year-long series of reports called "Get Your Finances Ready for Retirement" that will appear two Mondays a month, starting May 12. The show is broadcast in the Tampa Bay area at 6:30 p.m. on WEDU. The first programs in the series are:
May 12--Getting started: What you need to consider about retirement
May 19--How much money do you need to retire?
May 26--Special Memorial Day program devoted to retirement topics, including when you should begin to collect Social Security
After they are broadcast, programs will be available on demand at the Nightly Business Report Web site. Monthly companion articles will be featured in U.S. News & World Report.
St. Petersburg Times personal finance editor Helen Huntley writes about money topics and answers questions about financial planning, investments and personal income taxes.
It has been said for years most folks are not prepared, so what else is new?
