If you are (or were) a W-2 worker, your company probably gave you the option to enroll in a retirement account. Ideally, they matched it, managed it, and made it easy for you to sign up and make contributions.

If you’re an entrepreneur, saving for retirement isn’t quite as simple. Which means you’ve got to take control of your own retirement–but this creates additional opportunities to save on taxes and put away more money for the future.

That’s why I’m excited to introduce you to Sean Mullaney. Sean is the president of Mullaney Financial & Tax, a fee–only fiduciary that offers advice-only financial planning. He’s also the author of The Solo 401(k): The Solopreneur’s Retirement Account, a guide that allows self-employed entrepreneurs to reduce taxes and strategically save for retirement.

In our conversation, we dig into how real estate can play a role in your retirement portfolio, the advantages of the solo 401(k), and how to take advantage of the wide array of tools at your disposal that you might not even be aware of.
