In this episode of Retirement Decoded with Scott Tucker, we discuss the push to bring private-market investments into retirement plans and what that could mean for everyday 401(k) investors.   We break down liquidity, fees, valuation, diversification, and risk—and explain why investors should understand exactly what they may be giving up in exchange for access to private investments inside a retirement account.

   Episode 100: 7% Mortgage Rates?! What This Means for Retirees

   Get on our phone calendar at https://TuckerRetirement.com (https://url.us.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/DFD3CADXYPU6WQRPfYs99iGnc-d?domain=tuckerretirement.com/)   Mortgage rates around 7% can dramatically change the cost of buying, moving, refinancing, or carrying debt into retirement.   In this episode of Retirement Decoded with Scott Tucker, we break down what higher mortgage rates can mean for retirees and pre-retirees, including housing decisions, monthly cash flow, retirement income, and whether paying off a mortgage before retirement always makes sense.   If retirement is getting closer, your mortgage may be a much bigger part of your retirement plan than you think.
