Is Gen X the Forgotten Generation with Tina Kilroy and Sarah Holden

In this episode of Wine and Dime, welcome back Tina Kilroy and Sarah Holden. If you don’t recall, Tina and Sarah work for the Investment Company Institute(ICI), and specialize in retirement planning and 401k education. It seems that everyone always talks about the “Baby Boomer”, and “Millennial”, but what about Gen X, or what I like to call them, the forgotten generation. But now with that generation in the 40’s and 50’s, retirement planning is a very pressing topic. Join us, as we discuss how to stay on track with your retirement goals! Also, be sure to check out the ICI website for countless resources to help you make educated discussions when it comes to retirement an investments. So sit on back, pop open a bottle of your favorite vino and enjoy this conversation!

Amy Irvine

As a kid, I always liked numbers. I would spend hours creating math problems and solutions. Whenever I wanted to play math teacher, my brother was forced to be my student! Given my love of facts and figures, it’s really no surprise that I chose a career where I work with numbers.

I believe that you can use your dollars and cents to create and live a meaningful life unique to your own dreams and desires. I started Rooted Planning Group because I wanted to offer financial PLANNING services. Our profession has a tendency to focus on “assets under management,” but I wanted to focus on the journey of your life (what I refer to in the podcast as your financial “vineyard”). I truly believe that, like wine, life and finances have different palettes that should be celebrated and not judged.

My journey as a business owner was not a direct path; it’s more of a long and winding road. Over the course of the past 30 years, I’ve worked in various financial services positions, but I’m most proud of the ensemble of women that I’ve brought together at Rooted Planning Group.

I am the author of Uncork Your Finances and the podcast host of Money Roots.

I also co-founded the Southern Tier Women's Financial Conference in 2014, an annual event dedicated to collaboration, networking, and financial education for women.
