Seven things you NEED to know before retiring
This is series 1, episode 1 of the new Prime Time podcast.
Welcome to the very first edition of Prime Time with Bec Wilson, the podcast designed to help you live long, live well and squeeze more out of the second half of life! LISTEN HERE
Each week I’m going to bring you the very best advice from the leading minds in, well, everything - finance, health, psychology, sex, diet, relationships, travel, superannuation, property and so much more. I want to help prepare you for what may just be the best years of your life, if you get out there and make them such.
In the first edition, we introduce Prime Time, then I reveal the 7 things you NEED to know before retiring. These are the titbits I wish everyone knew, about to live a longer, healthier, better quality and more financiall secure life in your second half.
In this series, I welcome to the show special guest Spencer Howson, who is going to help me break down the tricky topics - in conversation. He’s the talented radio host of Brisbane’s Weekend Show on 4BC 882 and a great friend of the show, and he’ll be back for a couple more episodes in the season to come. In that season you’ll also get to enjoy some of the country’s leading experts on how to live long, live well and have a great time doing it. I can’t wait to share their advice with you. Shows are released every Thursday!
Here’s some of the podcast highlights for episode 1:
So, when am I in my Prime Time? What does that mean?
Why Spencer is excited about the next 30 years and why you should be too.
Longevity: How long are we really likely to live?
Goal setting for our second half of life: What do you really want?
Building your financial confidence: How you can work on yours, and what you should be doing now
Prioritising your health: What do we really need to be thinking about at this age?
Happiness and curiosity: And the reality of how we actively pursue it, instead of just hoping we’ll be happy
Work: Thinking about work differently, in a way more suited to a modern, new world retirement
