Episode description

Young Investors Are Taking Big Risks & Costly Pension Mistake

Are you feeling financially behind? You aren’t alone. Wes Moss reveals that a staggering 73% of Americans feel like they are losing the financial race — and why the "solution" many are turning to is actually a dangerous trap. Wes explains how to leverage your greatest asset to build real, lasting wealth through patient accumulation. Also, Wes tackles the "Pot of Gold" syndrome that haunts retirees. A study from MetLife shows that one in five Americans who receive a pension lump sum run out of that money in an average of just four years. Learn how to protect your future by turning a one-time lump sum into a permanent stream of financial freedom.
