I’m Not Making This Mistake Again

A couple weeks ago the girlfriend and I took a little vacation to Vegas to see the city and take a break from everything.

One day we went to the Mob Museum and saw some of the gangsters that were later made famous by Martin Scorsese in Casino and Goodfellas (I highly recommend watching both).

After that we were looking for something for dinner, and I made a big mistake:  I let her have full control over the restaurant selection.

She ended up picking one of those “chic” modern American places, with mediocre food and service.

But the worst part?  When I got the bill and had to pay an above average price for a below average meal!

Now here’s the mistake I made: I went in completely blind to the price that I was going to have to pay. 

That’s actually what a lot of people do when it comes to their health insurance/medical costs in retirement.  They either don’t research it or mistakenly assume that Medicare will cover all of their expenses once they turn 65.  That’s not the case!  

And in the most recent episode of my new podcast, Retirement Clarity Radio, I talk all about what to expect in terms of Medicare costs, so that you aren’t left with an unexpectedly high dinner (I mean, Medicare) bill.

You can also give it a listen on Apple Podcast and Spotify.

Have A Great Week,
