## Resource

Why don’t we see more athletes who make 7-figure financial deals putting at least 1 million dollars in a retirement account to set them up for success in the future? Being four years away from retirement, is it wiser to focus on paying off debt or piling up money in my account? And is there a good rule of thumb for how much of my IRA should be invested in safe investments at age 60? David Brooks has answers to these questions in today’s Q&A episode.
