The Retirement Learning Lab
Tired of feeling overwhelmed and confused about retirement planning?
You're not alone. After 30+ years of helping people navigate retirement, I've seen how the flood of conflicting financial advice paralyzes even the smartest people.
Hi, I'm Van Richards, and I created The Retirement Learning Lab to cut through the noise and give you the clarity you deserve.
Here's what makes this different: Instead of throwing more complicated strategies at you, I teach you a simple, systematic approach that actually works. My clients go from lying awake at night worrying about money to sleeping peacefully, knowing they're in complete control of their financial future.
You'll discover how to:
- Transform retirement confusion into confident action
- Maximize your income while reducing risk
- Avoid the costly mistakes that become impossible to fix later
- Create a plan so simple you could explain it to a 12-year-old
The bottom line: You only get one chance at retirement. Don't leave it to chance.
Whether you're 10 years from retirement or already there, these proven strategies will help you go from financial insecurity to complete control.

Do You Unknowingly Own Russian Stocks? What now?
If you own a retirement account like a 401k, you probably split your savings up among a few different types of investments.
A lot of people use investment models provided by their employers.
And a lot of you don't really know which stocks or bonds your investments have. And really that is OK. The idea of investing in a mutual fund, a variable annuity, or an ETF is, so you don't have to be an expert.
But many people are surprised to learn that any of their retirement accounts have Russian stocks or bonds.
So how do you know and what can you do about it.
That is what today's podcast is about.
In today's podcast, I reference a lot of details. If you'd like to see the references to those details, please go to my blog and see the references to "Do You Unknowingly Own Russian Stocks? WHAT NOW?" Here is a link to my blog: https://richardsfinancialplanning.com/russian-stocks-what-now
