When we started up a radio show about three years ago, we wanted to help educate people about financial planning and how to prepare for retirement. Thanks to the success of that show and the feedback we’ve gotten from you, we decided to expand our conversations over to podcasting.

It’s a newer medium for many people but the flexibility to be able to listen on your own time and your own schedule has made podcasting one of the fastest-growing mediums in our country. Now we’ll be using this platform to share information, experiences, stories, and more on The Retirement Huddle.

To get us started, we put together a short introduction to give you an idea of who we are and what you can expect from the show. Mark Howard will tell us about his background and how he went from the University of Georgia to the world of finance. We’ll also find out what pushed him to start his own business, the Howard Financial Group.

We also want you to know what the plan is for each show, which will publish twice each month, so let’s spend a little time talking about the goals for the podcast.

We’re excited you found the show and we hope you’ll subscribe and join us for the journey ahead.

Today’s rundown:
