Not a lot of us sit around at home and think about our retirement. For most of us, this is a distant concept and something we don’t consider on a daily basis. However, since retirement is something we all hope to reach, thinking about it beforehand is more than important. That said, retirement isn’t just about getting old and sitting on your porch with a cup of coffee in your hand. It’s a process that if not considered thoroughly, may leave us broke during our “golden years.”
