00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.480
Take me back to that moment. At that moment, when you followed all the rules and it didn't work out

2
00:00:06.480 --> 00:00:10.880
so good, what were you feeling? What were you thinking? What did you learn from that?

3
00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:20.080
Well, the one thing that I learned is that I, one, wish I had done a better job myself

4
00:00:20.720 --> 00:00:27.600
of understanding other tools. That I hadn't solely depended on a financial advisor in my corporation

5
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:34.240
to lead me, but to continue to get better education myself, allowing me to then be

6
00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:40.880
better prepared as I got down the road. And wanting to set myself up, as well as my children,

7
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:46.640
with understanding that if you're going to get free money because you have money going to a 401k,

8
00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:52.480
by all means you want to maximize that. But that also comes with some costs. And understanding

9
00:00:52.480 --> 00:01:00.000
those costs is as important as making sure that you have the money saved. So I've learned that

10
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:07.600
the education, and even today, the education of our young people is far worse than it was years

11
00:01:07.600 --> 00:01:14.640
back. There's almost nothing taught when it comes to understanding finances. So making sure that our

12
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:20.640
kids know at an early age, because that's the time that they can have the biggest impact on their

13
00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:25.760
lifetime retirement, is by starting young.
