Not sure how to best use your 401k plan to stack some B’s? Today the man many call the “father of the 401k,” Ted Benna, joins us to share not just how he created the first 401k plan, but he’ll also share some great tips for ensuring you are getting the maximum benefit from every contribution.
During our headline, we talk about the wild ride that is NFTs. Who has the right to create and sell an NFT? Apparently not Quentin Tarantino. Listen to find out why he is being sued. Then we’ll answer Nathan’s question about his commercial mortgages. He wants to pay off one of them but which one should he pay first?
Enjoy!
