Out guest James Nichols is the head of Retirement Income and Advice Strategy for Retirement for Voya Financial, but we prefer the title, "Retirement Yoda". James talked about the Voya Born to Save program, where any child born on October 19th 2015 can receive $500 from Voya! James also discussed great ways to break down financial goals by key life stages and milestones.
