Retirement planning can be time-consuming, energy-draining and downright confusing.

Does this sound like you?

❌ You aren’t sure about how to predict your future financial needs
❌ You’re overwhelmed with retirement options
❌ You don’t know where to start investing

All of these are reasons I’ve heard for why people postpone retirement planning.

The problem?

The longer you wait, the less you’ll make. 

Whether you’re an employee or self-employed, chances are you aren’t maximizing your retirement options. 

Here’s how I can help ⬇️

Over the last 10 years, I’ve maxed out my retirement contributions in 401ks and IRAs by understanding laws, limits, and undervalued investment opportunities.

Now, I’m sharing everything I know.

When you subscribe to the Investoroo.com newsletter, you’ll get tips and advice to help you make informed decisions about your future.

We’ll explore topics such as:

✅ Roth IRAs vs. Traditional IRAs
✅ Self-employment retirement options
✅ Supplemental plans to go with pensions
✅ How to determine how much money you’ll need to retire (and how to get there)

And so much more.

Why Me? ⬇️

Unlike most retirement plan experts, I’m not affiliated with a financial company. 

I’m not here to sell IRAs or pressure you into opening unnecessary accounts.

I’m here to give unbiased advice to help you retire the way you want.

That’s it.

Let’s get you on the right path today. Sign up for the Investoroo.com newsletter here.

Research Journalist

The British Museum

Senior Sales Executive

Ghostwriter for the risk takers - helping founders with brand awareness and lead generation. + I write: bridging the gap between self-sabotage to solopreneurship - Get Over Yourself!

I really am the ghostwriter for the risk takers. My writing and workflow helps founders to get up and running in the simplest of ways. LinkedIn is a marketplace and we are all single products here. 

We have to create material that captures attention, gets people intrigued and ready to pull the trigger!

It takes a person to be exposed to a message 7 times before it truly lands and is properly digested. 

That is mad. 

Now reverse engineer that message.

How do you get there?

That's where a ghostwriter like me comes in with 10+ years experience.

____________________________________________

I also write about self-sabotage to solopreneurship, bridging the gap between both and getting people to create content. 

____________________________________________

+10 years of digital marketing experience working with big brands. Including: eCommerce, conversion rate optimisation, SEO, communications and content.
