The kids may be heading back to class, but it’s a perfect time for adults to crack open the books too, especially when it comes to retirement. In this episode, Scott puts listeners to the test with a series of essential retirement planning questions every retiree should know.

Tune in as we uncover some of the gaps that can trip people up when planning for the future- from Social Security to IRA contributions and RMDs. If you can’t answer them all, don’t worry: it’s a helpful reminder that a little preparation today can prevent big surprises tomorrow. Grab your pencil and see how you score!
