On this episode of Get Ready for the Future Show, we're tackling some big retirement questions with even bigger financial decisions. Angie from Jonesboro wonders whether to take a pension lump sum or monthly benefit — we break down the pros, cons, and how to truly compare them. Elisha, a 62-year-old widow still working part-time, wants to know the smartest way to claim Social Security benefits — we walk through survivor options and earnings limits. Jennie from Vilonia asks if moving to a no-income-tax state will really save money — spoiler: taxes always come from somewhere. And Chris from Little Rock just sold a rental for $310K — we explore whether it's best to invest, pay off the mortgage, or delay Social Security. Big choices, smart guidance. Tune in and take control of your future. And if you've got a question you want answered on the show, call or text 501.381.5228! Or email your question to show@getreadyforthefuture.com!
