Vacations across the world, spending quality time with your friends and family and — most importantly — not being obligated to work a 9-to-5 job: Your retirement is supposed to be about freedom. Getting to that point takes time, money and focus.

To kick off our series about financial dreams, Sean and Liz talk with personal finance YouTuber Marissa Lyda. (https://www.youtube.com/c/TheBudgetingWife/) about how she plans to save in 2022 for her dream retirement. We also discuss how she’s made a full-time job out of YouTubing.
