EP 020: On this episode of The Retirement Success in Maine Podcast, the team is joined by John Diehl, CFP® of Hartford Funds. We wanted to have John on the show with us, not only to share his expertise as Senior Vice President of Strategic Markets for Hartford Funds but also because John also oversees Hartford Funds’ relationship with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) AgeLab. With his experience at Hartford Funds and with the MIT AgeLab, John is considered an “all things retirement expert” and has been quoted widely in publications including The Wall Street Journal and made appearances on CNBC and Bloomberg Television. Our conversation with John focused on the retirement research conducted by the MIT AgeLab and how technology is having an impact on aging. John provided insight into questions like, how can someone visualize retirement? How is technology impacting the employment aspects of retirement? What impact does technology have on familial relationships in retirement? How is mobility affected by technology? and much more. Be sure to tune in to hear what John has to say!
