Money Matters: “58 Years Old and My Mom Has No Money for Retirement”
So my mom is trying to retire soon, as she is 58. She currently doesn’t have a lot of money for retirement (about 100,000 dollars), but makes 250,000 a year and loves her job (which isn’t demanding on her body).
She is just now starting to save more, but doesn’t know if she should go with a self-401k (as she is self employed), or open an annuity with thrivant.
