Decoding the One Big Beautiful Bill Act: Tax Changes You Need to Know

Navigating the tax maze just got a little more interesting with the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Despite headlines suggesting "tax-free Social Security," the reality offers different but substantial benefits for various groups of Americans.Seniors aged 65 and older can now claim an additional $6,000 deduction ($12,000 for married couples) regardless of whether they itemize or take the standard deduction. This benefit applies even if you haven't started taking Social Security yet, though it phases out for higher-income households. Meanwhile, service industry workers rejoice – tip income can now be excluded from taxable income below certain thresholds, potentially saving servers and other tipped professionals thousands in taxes annually. The SALT deduction cap jumps from $10,000 to $40,000 for most taxpayers, though the marriage penalty remains firmly in place with couples limited to the same $40,000 cap as singles.Car buyers will appreciate the new deduction for up to $10,000 in auto loan interest, while charitable givers face a mixed bag of changes – non-itemizers can deduct $1,000-$2,000 in donations starting next year, but itemizers lose deductibility on their first 0.5% of income donated. Each provision comes with different income limitations based on adjusted gross income, creating planning opportunities for those near these thresholds. Consider strategies like increased retirement contributions or qualified charitable distributions to optimize your position under these new rules.Most Americans will see lower tax bills in the coming three years, but remember – in taxation, "permanent" rarely means forever. As administrations and priorities shift, so too will the tax landscape. Listen now to understand how these changes affect your financial picture and what proactive steps might save you money before filing season arrives.Breaking Down The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”: Impact Of New Laws On Tax Planning Summaryhttps://www.kitces.com/blog/obbba-one-big-beautiful-bill-act-tax-planning-salt-cap-senior-deduction-qbi-deduction-tax-cut-and-jobs-act-tcja-amt-trump-accounts/ Envision Financial Planning. 5100 Poplar Avenue, Suite 2428, Memphis, TN 38137.

From AI-powered robots to autonomous vehicles and data-hungry cameras, the next generation of connected assets is pushing wireless networks to their limits. While Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 deliver leaps in speed, bandwidth, and capacity, some applications demand even more—ultra-low latency, higher reliability, and seamless connectivity. In this episode, we dive into the exciting evolution of Wi-Fi, how Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul (URWB) delivers ultra-reliability beyond what Wi-Fi can deliver, and how organizations are combining Wi-Fi and URWB to unlock new use cases. We will also unpack: What sets Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 apart from earlier generations? The new possibilities these Wi-Fi advancements enable—and where they fall short.

Ever felt paralyzed by not knowing exactly what financial goals to set for your future? You're not alone. This episode tackles the common dilemma many young professionals face: how to save for a future you can't yet envision.Drawing from personal experience, I share how my husband and I discovered our love for Colorado's mountains later in life – a passion we couldn't have predicted in our twenties. Had we waited until identifying this specific goal before saving, our mountain property dream would have remained permanently out of reach. The lesson? Start saving now, even without specific targets.The episode reveals what I consider the ultimate saving hack: when you receive significant pay increases early in your career, resist dramatically changing your lifestyle. Make reasonable upgrades to safety and reliability, but otherwise maintain modest living standards and invest the difference. This approach creates remarkable financial flexibility by your 50s – options like early retirement, vacation homes, helping your children financially, or pursuing passions you haven't yet discovered.We also explore smarter consumption decisions, like our choice to rent boats occasionally rather than purchase one despite owning "everything for a boat except the boat." Having savings gives you the luxury of thoughtful consideration rather than impulsive decisions. Plus, financial security significantly reduces relationship tensions, as money ranks as the number one source of conflict among couples.Time truly is your greatest investment ally – the power of compound interest over decades makes starting early crucial. Don't let uncertainty about specific goals prevent you from saving. Begin now, invest consistently, and create options for a future self you haven't even met yet.

Freedom requires a plan, especially in retirement. The myth that retirees can abandon budgeting once they stop working creates unnecessary financial stress and can threaten long-term security. As a financial planner, I've seen how the right approach to retirement spending creates confidence, reduces anxiety, and actually encourages enjoyable spending.When your income no longer arrives automatically through a paycheck, understanding your cash flow becomes even more critical. Retirement brings changing expenses - from healthcare costs to dream vacations - while inflation and longevity risk add complexity to financial planning. The good news? Retirement budgeting doesn't mean restriction; it means clarity and purpose.The most effective retirement spending plans categorize expenses as fixed (housing, insurance, utilities) and variable (travel, hobbies, gifts). Match guaranteed income like Social Security to your essential expenses, while using investment growth for discretionary spending during favorable market conditions. Track your spending for a couple months, create a simple one-page budget, and review it quarterly. This approach provides the freedom to spend confidently on what matters most to you.My favorite moments as a financial advisor come when I can encourage well-prepared clients to spend more money in retirement. With a solid foundation and clear understanding of your financial boundaries, you can travel, pursue hobbies, support family, and live generously without constant worry. Ready to build a retirement budget that enhances rather than restricts your lifestyle? Let's talk about how a thoughtful financial plan can help you enjoy the retirement you've worked so hard to achieve. Envision Financial Planning. 5100 Poplar Avenue, Suite 2428, Memphis, TN 38137.

The Four Paths for Your Old 401(k): Smart Choices for Retirement Security

Have you ever left a job and forgotten about your retirement plan? You're not alone. A staggering $1.3 trillion sits in over 25 million abandoned 401(k) accounts across America. That's literally like walking away from your paycheck when you exit the building!Today I'm breaking down your four options for those old retirement plans, whether they're 401(k)s or 403(b)s. You can leave the money where it is (if you have over $7,000 in the account), which might work well if your former employer offered solid low-cost options. But let's be honest – out of sight often means out of mind, and these accounts frequently end up neglected.Rolling your old plan into your current employer's 401(k) keeps everything in one place, making it easier to manage alongside your current contributions. This strategy also preserves your ability to make backdoor Roth IRA contributions if your income exceeds the normal limits. Alternatively, you could roll the funds into an IRA for potentially greater investment flexibility, though this might come with higher costs than employer plans. And while you can move traditional IRA money back into a 401(k) later, curiously, you can't do the same with Roth IRA funds.The fourth option – cashing out – should generally be your last resort. Between regular income taxes and the 10% early withdrawal penalty, you could easily lose 25-30% of your money immediately. Imagine cashing out $50,000 while earning $75,000 – suddenly your taxable income jumps to $125,000, creating a potential tax nightmare!When deciding what to do with your old retirement accounts, consider fees, investment options, whether you might need to access the money through loans, and the mental clarity that comes from consolidation. Don't become part of that $1.3 trillion in forgotten funds! Review your accounts annually, maintain your online access, and ensure your hard-earned retirement savings keep working for your future.

Beyond the Magic Number: Understanding Retirement as a Timeline

Better Financial Health in 15 Minutes (or less!)

Ready to rethink everything you thought you knew about retirement planning? Forget the simplistic "magic number" approach—retirement is actually a timeline that could span 25, 30, or even 40 years of your life.Most retirees follow a predictable spending pattern: those first golden years tend to be surprisingly expensive as you finally tackle bucket list dreams and long-postponed projects. That European vacation? Kitchen renovation? Workshop in the backyard? They all happen early, creating a significant upfront expense. Then spending typically levels out before rising again in later years as healthcare needs increase. This timeline perspective transforms how we should prepare financially.For those already approaching retirement, I break down the essential three-bucket strategy: your spending bucket for immediate needs, your income bucket generating regular returns, and your growth bucket fighting inflation over decades. Without proper growth investments, your retirement income won't keep pace with rising costs. Younger listeners facing student loans and other debts shouldn't be discouraged by seemingly impossible retirement targets. Start small by focusing on replacing just one year of income at a time.I also bust a persistent myth that drives me crazy: carrying credit card balances does NOT improve your credit score! Paying in full each month while maintaining low balance-to-limit ratios actually creates better credit outcomes without wasting money on interest.The power of compound interest means your initial savings efforts will eventually be dwarfed by your money making money. But you have to start somewhere. Whatever financial mistakes you've made, stop digging that hole today. We can't change the past, but better decisions now create a more secure tomorrow.

Matt Brown, VP of Telehealth at Advisory Services at CHG Healthcare, discusses the current state and future of telehealth, including the rapid adoption during the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of technology and AI in enhancing telehealth experiences, and how telehealth can help address physician and nurse burnout. Improved internet access, mobile device usage, and consumer preferences for convenience have driven the increasing telehealth usage for initial visits, follow-up appointments, and chronic care management.   Matt explains, "We are the nation's largest staffing agency. So, we're actually the founders of what's known as the locum tenens marketplace. CHG has been a pioneer in bringing physician services into remote and rural locations across the United States for the past four years. And over the last 10 years or so, we've continued to innovate on top of that physician-led experience and started to bring technology operations, as well as consulting services and telehealth, into the marketplace. So think of us as providing a broad array of staffing services, but also on top of that, technology and operations, and consulting that help the largest health systems in the country manage their physician workforce."   "It's been widely adopted since the pandemic. If you think about coming out of the pandemic, a lot of our health systems and hospitals were really forced to do a few things. One, they really had to upgrade a lot of their infrastructure and technology. So that meant that they were bringing broadband access into their hospitals. They started to think about how they could deliver care to their patients more remotely. And as they were doing a lot of these technology upgrades, they also started to address patients more like consumers. So I think that there was a big shift that started to take place in consumer services, starting to look like healthcare services."   "About that same time, you had a number of very large retail-focused, consumer-focused companies start to enter into the healthcare marketplace. So these are folks like Amazon, you have CVS and Walgreens, and now you've had a number of companies like Hims and Hers, and all of those are entering into the healthcare ecosystem through telehealth as a channel. So, as we've seen this increased infrastructure, this improvement in infrastructure, as well as consumerization of healthcare, continue to accelerate after the pandemic, and now we have more of this consumer-centric focus coming from a retail perspective."   #CHFGHealthcare #MedAI #DigitalHealth #PatientAccess #Telehealth #PhysicianBurnout #ClinicianBurnout CHGHealthcare.com Download the transcript here

Forget waiting for the perfect financial opportunity. Everyone dreams of having bought Apple stock in 2004 or finding that perfect house at the perfect price, but real wealth isn't built through home runs – it's created through consistent singles.After working with hundreds of millionaire-next-door retirees, I've discovered their secret isn't spectacular investing wins but small, incremental improvements that compound dramatically over time. This power of 1% works universally, whether you're just starting your career or already enjoying retirement.For younger investors, increasing your 401k contribution by just 1% creates minimal budget impact now but massive retirement benefits later. On a $60,000 salary, that's only $50 monthly that could grow to $50-60k by retirement. Already maxing retirement accounts? Consider canceling one streaming service ($10-15/month) and redirecting those funds to a Roth IRA. Another overlooked opportunity: move your emergency fund from a traditional bank to a brokerage firm's money market account earning 4%+ interest – potentially generating hundreds in passive income annually from money that was sitting idle.Retirees benefit equally from the 1% approach. Reducing portfolio withdrawals by just 1% keeps more money invested and growing. Those 70½ or older can optimize charitable giving through Qualified Charitable Distributions directly from IRAs, maintaining generosity while eliminating taxes on those distributions. Think of financial wellness like physical fitness – consistency trumps intensity. What will your 1% improvement be this month? That single small step might just transform your financial future. The journey to financial freedom isn't about swinging for the fences – it's about showing up daily and moving consistently in the right direction.

"I wanted to be a dolphin trainer... But here I am." - Kelly Guzman  What happens when emergency nurses become healthcare design consultants? In this fascinating episode of Healthcare Interior Design 2.0, host Cheryl Janis sits down with two remarkable guests who made the leap from bedside care to transforming how healthcare spaces are designed. Meet Kelly Guzman, who traded her childhood dreams of training dolphins for a nursing career that began during the 1987 nursing shortage. After years managing emergency departments and clinical services at UCLA Health, Kelly discovered her true calling when tasked with moving entire hospitals into new buildings. Now CEO of Yellow Brick Consulting, she orchestrates complex healthcare facility transitions with military precision - including dress rehearsals with up to 900 staff members testing new spaces before they open. Meet Kevin Meek, whose journey started at age 13 as a hospital candy striper, inspired by the TV show Emergency 51. His design awakening came in 2014 when he walked through a micro hospital under construction and immediately knew it would be an operational nightmare. One complaint to his boss led to a game-changing meeting with architects in Texas, launching his transition from trauma nurse to design consultant. Both Kelly and Kevin have served on the board of the Nursing Institute for Healthcare Design (NIHD), our podcast industry partners. They found their tribe in this organization that connects clinical "unicorns" who felt alone in the design space. The NIHD's mission is to engage and integrate clinical expertise into healthcare facility planning through leadership, education, and advocacy - ensuring that the voices of those who actually work in these spaces are heard in the design process. Together, they've pioneered the concept of "clinically informed design" - and the stories they share will make you question everything you thought you knew about healthcare facility planning. From door handles placed in impossible locations to the eternal struggle of finding space for critical patient information at the bedside, this episode reveals the often hilarious (and sometimes heartbreaking) disconnect between beautiful design and functional reality. In this eye-opening conversation, you'll discover: How two emergency nurses found their calling as healthcare design "unicorns" and why the industry desperately needs more clinical voices The game-changing difference between evidence-based design and clinically informed design (hint: one involves research, the other involves asking the right questions) Why a door paddle eight feet from the door could be a matter of life and death - and other design details that seem obvious once you know them The fascinating world of hospital transition planning, where entire facilities rehearse their opening like a Broadway production How the Nursing Institute for Healthcare Design is connecting clinical expertise with architectural brilliance Real-world horror stories of beautiful spaces that staff absolutely hate to work in Practical strategies for nurses thrust into design meetings and architects wanting to truly engage clinical teams Why post-occupancy evaluations could prevent future design disasters (and why they rarely happen) Discover why nurses are the ultimate design unicorns, learn about the organization connecting clinical voices to design teams nationwide, and find out what happens when a nurse tells a prospective client that they "hate" their gorgeous new facility - with the architect standing right there.

Did you know that bathrooms and showers – particularly in shared spaces – are a veritable breeding ground for pathogen, some of which we see in the form of mold and the build-up of toxic bio films on surfaces. Body fats and soap scums provide a rich food sauce for micro-organisms such as airborne bacteria Serratia Marcescens, which thrive in humid conditions. We know that people with weakened immune systems are so much more vulnerable to the illnesses associated with infection and let's face it, none of us go into the shower with an expectation that we might get sick. So how do we keep those shower walls clean? Well let's think big – BIG TILES. Porcelanosa have developed XXL Hygienic Ceramic Tiles that are 5 feet long - which means just one piece fits the wall of a shower or tub surround. XTONE Porcelain slabs are 10 feet high which means a floor to ceiling surface with no joints. Why does this matter? Well hygienic glaze will not harbor pathogen and surface impurities are easily removed to prevent build up – it is reassuring to know the evidence - INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS Test ISO 10545 - Resistance to Stains -  has determined these surfaces can be easily cleaned and the most difficult contaminants washed away, greatly reducing the need for aggressive chemicals. Think about this. When we unload our dishwasher our ceramic tableware is sparkling clean, sanitized and fresh to use - again and again. The principle is the same with large ceramic walls - So, when planning the shower surrounds for your facilities please reach out to Porcelanosa. The designer in you will love the incredible options and your specification will deliver the longest & best lifecycle value bar none.

Real Estate's Margin for Error is Gone

The Margin of Error Has Vanished: What CRE Investors Should Be Watching Now Commentary on a conversation with John Chang, Senior Vice President and National Director, Research and Advisory Services, Marcus & Millichap   The New CRE Investment Mandate: Survive First, Then Thrive “The margin of error has narrowed to virtually zero.” This was John Chang's stark assessment of today's commercial real estate environment – an era marked by fragile capital markets, rising Treasury yields, policy instability, and speculative hangovers from a decade of cheap money. According to Chang, the headline playbook hasn't changed: keep leverage low, maintain reserves, underwrite for downside. But the stakes have changed. What used to be prudent is now required. Those who forget that, particularly those lulled by the long post-GFC bull run, risk extinction.   Cap Rates, Treasury Yields, and the Compressed Spread A central theme of our conversation is the vanishing spread between borrowing costs and asset yields. Cap rates have risen 100–200 bps depending on asset class and geography, but Treasury rates have risen more. That's compressed spreads, rendering most acquisitions reliant on a value-creation story or an eventual rate reversal.   Investors are still transacting, says Chang, but only if they believe they can bridge the spread gap through operational improvements i.e. leasing, renovation, management upgrades. Passive cap-rate arbitrage is no longer viable. “The potential for something to go wrong is high,” Chang warns, especially in a policy environment that remains erratic.   The Treasury Market's Imminent Supply Shock Chang outlines why he expects upward pressure on Treasury yields for the balance of the year – contrary to the market's general expectations of rate cuts. Key reasons: Federal Deficits: With a delayed budget, Treasury issuance has been running below historical norms. That's about to reverse, with $1–1.5 trillion in supply expected by October. Shrinking Buyer Base: The Fed is reducing its balance sheet. Foreign holders, especially China and Japan, are net sellers. Even traditional allies are showing less appetite, driven partly by frictions over U.S. trade policy. Trade Tensions: Tariffs of up to 145% on imports from China, EU saber-rattling, and a broad retreat from globalization are alienating the very buyers of U.S. debt. “People don't want to do us any favors right now,” Chang says. “That uncertainty alone elevates risk premiums.”   Normalcy Bias and the Myth of the Perpetual Up Cycle Chang pulls no punches on the market psychology underpinning risky underwriting in recent years. He describes a bifurcated investor landscape: Those who entered post-GFC and think 2–3% interest rates and infinite rent growth are normal. Veterans of the 1990s S&L crisis, the dot-com bust, or the GFC, who know better. What's striking is the lack of long-term data. Even Marcus & Millichap, he notes, only has robust CRE data going back to 2000. Without context, many have mistaken the tailwind-fueled 2010s as a standard baseline.   “We're back to old-world real estate,” Chang says. “Where you have to actually understand the property, the tenant mix, the microeconomics of location. The era of pure financial engineering is over.”   Lessons from the Pandemic and GFC: Underwrite for Downside, Not for Hype Chang recounts closing on an investment in April 2020 at the very onset of pandemic uncertainty. “What if we rent at breakeven?” he asked. If the answer was yes, he proceeded. That conservative approach worked then and still applies today.   The biggest blow-ups, he says, came from sponsors who: Modeled double-digit rent growth. Over-leveraged. Used floating-rate debt without hedges. Ignored capex and reserves. By contrast, Chang praises sponsors who locked in fixed debt, kept leverage under 65%, and stayed humble. “They're embarrassed to be earning 7% IRRs,” he jokes, “but in this climate, that's a win.”   Washout in the Syndication Space: Good Riddance? Perhaps most damning is Chang's commentary on the wave of underqualified syndicators who entered during the boom years.   “Thousands came in with no operating experience,” he says, pointing to the proliferation of coaching programs offering checklists instead of expertise. These new entrants mimicked industry language – AUM figures, fund manager titles – but often had no institutional track record or risk management skills.   Many of them, Chang believes, are now out or on their way out. And while some may return with hard-earned wisdom, he expects the flow of “tourists” into the syndication world to dry up for the foreseeable future.   Tailwinds Still Exist: But Only for the Well-Prepared Despite the short-term risks, Chang sees multiple long-term tailwinds: Demographics: Millennials are delaying homeownership, renting into their 40s and fueling demand for multifamily. Inflation Resistance: Assets like multifamily, self-storage, and even select retail have pricing power in inflationary environments. Constrained Supply: Rising costs (e.g., lumber, steel tariffs) are slowing new construction, which will support existing asset values over time. He also flags tax policy as a positive surprise: The “BBB” tax bill, now working its way through the House, offers accelerated depreciation and expansion of Opportunity Zones particularly in rural areas. This could buoy returns in an otherwise challenging environment.   On the Aging of America: A Selective Case for Healthcare-Adjacent Assets Chang views medical office and senior housing through a bifurcated lens: Medical office: Attractive if tenants are stable, young, or anchored by heavy equipment. Long leases. Minimal turnover. Durable income. Assisted living: Demographic tailwinds are real, but operators matter more than ever. The Achilles heel? Labor. “About 30% of healthcare workers in the U.S. are foreign-born,” he warns. “And immigration policy, especially under restrictive regimes, will constrain the labor supply.” No staff, no NOI.   Final Signals: What He's Watching Closely If you want to forecast CRE performance, Chang suggests watching: University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment: A leading indicator of retail sales and housing trends. Currently falling. Inflation-adjusted Retail Sales: Shows how real consumption is holding up. Trade Policy & Supreme Court Rulings: The potential invalidation of Trump-era tariffs could reset inflation and Treasury outlooks but introduces a new kind of uncertainty. “We're not facing one black swan,” he concludes. “We're facing a whole flock. Pick your bird.”   Bottom Line This is not a time for heroic assumptions. It's a time for competence, humility, and discipline. If you must deploy capital, do so with sponsors who have been through a major downturn GFC style, and focus on those who didn't make capital calls, who still generate yield, and who underwrite to reality, not to hope.   The next 2–3 years may be rocky. But the long term still belongs to those who survive the short term.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.
