Col. Barry Cobb and Col. Jeff Smith, professors in the Department of Economics and Business at Virginia Military Institute, are discussing ways to pay for retirement and the best age to start drawing Social Security on the public radio program “With Good Reason” this week, April 29–May 5.
In addition to their financial advice, the show, “Aging Well,” features the expertise of Corinne Field from the University of Virginia, who will discuss how feminism has evolved since the 19th century. Matthew Fullen from Virginia Tech focuses on mental and emotional health as we get older and how life coaches can help. Toni Calasanti, also from Virginia Tech, explores how gender identify and sexual orientation can affect the way older individuals approach caregiving for their partner with dementia.
“With Good Reason” is sponsored by the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities. Local broadcast times, as well as audio files of full programs and companion news features, are available on the With Good Reason website.
