ESOP Summer School 43: Peter Newman - Successful Retirement Planning


The EsOp Podcast: Peter Newman, Part 1 - Planning Retirement Success

It's time for our annual EO/ESOP Podcast Summer School series. We've selected some of our favorite episodes over the past year for your enjoyment over the summer break.


Part 1 of 3. Bret Keisling was joined by Peter Newman, founder of Peak Wealth Planning, a boutique financial advisory firm specializing in high net-worth individuals with an emphasis on employee ownership.

 

In this episode, Peter discusses the various considerations someone should make as they begin planning for a successful retirement.  Many employee owners may retire with a nest egg that generates more income than the salary.  Peter describes how a mindset shift can be necessary to focus on designing and funding a retirement lifestyle, and why making and implementing financial decisions during the career can have a huge impact on retirement.
