A lot of business owners have done the responsible thing for their employees.

They have a 401(k) or a SIMPLE. Payroll runs. Contributions happen. The plan is in place.

Then you ask what the owner has for themselves.

A lot of the time, the answer is still some version of:

The business is the plan.

That can work right up until it does not.

This week’s article is about the gap between having a retirement plan at the company and actually having a plan for the person who owns it.

Park City Song Summit is a ticketed music festival. This year, the festival also opened Song Summit Village at Library Field as a free community event.

The village is open through Saturday, with no ticket or wristband required. The schedule includes live music, morning yoga, and a free 5K. Friday morning's run was led by Gregory Gourdet, a chef who has earned three James Beard Awards.

Making the village free changes who can take part. A family can stop by for music. Someone can join a morning event without committing to the full festival. A resident who happens to be walking past can see what Song Summit brings to town.

The festival still has its ticketed program, and local residents now have a free way to participate. A community event is stronger when the community has a real place in the experience.

If you are in Park City this weekend, walk over to Library Field. You can experience part of Song Summit without buying a ticket.

Have you already missed your window to start investing seriously?

A lot of people in their mid-30s think so. They picture the person who started at 22, compare themselves to that head start, and quietly decide they’re behind for good.

That’s a rough way to spend your thirties, measuring your life against someone else’s timeline.

But the math can tell a different story.

Take someone starting from zero who invests $15,000 a year for 25 years. At a hypothetical 8% annual return, the math produces about $1.1 million before fees and taxes.

They contributed $375,000. Roughly $720,000 came from growth. The return is an assumption, not a promise.

The curve doesn’t grow in a straight line. The later years do far more work than the early ones.

Comparing yourself to the person who started at 22 is the wrong contest. You’re not racing them.

The biggest risk may not be starting later than someone else. It may be letting the comparison cost you another five years—the years when compounding still has plenty of work left to do.
