In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Annuities that increase with inflation  The role of interest rates in pricing  For products that adjust for inflation Reverse-engineering your income floor   Key Takeaways:  Annuities don't give things away for free. A product that magically increases with inflation doesn't exist.  Lifetime income is primarily priced based on your life expectancy at the time you take the payment. Interest rates play a minor role.  For products that have a potential or contractual increase for inflation, the annuity company will severely lower the initial income as compared to the exact annuity without the increase.  Don't focus on things that you can't control. Focus on building up an income floor that suits your needs. Compute the number you'll need to cover your expenses; we can reverse-engineer a product for that.    "It's math to the annuity companies. It should be math to you. If it sounds too good to be true, it is every single time.

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  CDs and MYGAs I-bond no-brainer The safest product in principal protection  How safe are MYGAs?    Key Takeaways:  Here's how CDs (Certificate of Deposit) work: you give the bank money, they protect the principal, and you don't have to pay any fees. You can take the interest if you want to at the end of the term and do what you want with your money. MYGAs are basically the annuity industry's version of a CD.  Treasury bonds are a no-brainer. Go to treasurydirect.gov to buy them for yourself. The only downside of treasury bonds is that there's a limitation on how much money you can put in it.  Of these three safe principal protection options, treasury bonds are the safest because the government can tax or confiscate money in order to pay it, and they will. The second safest one is CDs since they are government-based as well.  MYGAs are safe products to invest in, and their safety is based on the annuity company's ability to pay. They are commodity products, and the money you'll get from them can be used to buy another MYGA from another company. However, you can't put all your money on annuities; you got to spread it around.    "This trifecta is a contractual guarantee:  CDs, Treasury's, Multi-Year Guarantee Annuities. You're owning these because of what they will do, not what they might do. You're buying the yield. The yield is contractual." —  Stan The Annuity Man.    Connect with The Annuity Man:  Website: http://theannuityman.com/  Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com  Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g  Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!

This week on “Henssler Money Talks,” we examine the implications of Donald Trump's firing of Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner Erika McEntarfer after the release of weaker-than-expected jobs data.

From Hawaii's sky-high income thresholds to West Virginia's relative affordability, we explore what these findings mean for individuals, families, and long-term financial planning—especially as median wages fall short of what it now takes to get by.After the break, we turn our focus to annuities, providing our take on these investment products.

In this week's episode of the Rich Habits Podcast, Robert Croak and Austin Hankwitz answer your questions!---

From protecting quarterbacks to protecting retirements, Triad Member, Terence Brown never stopped being a left tackle.After a career playing Division I football at BYU and a stint in the pros, he transitioned into financial services and brought his team-first mindset with him. Today, he leads Left Tackle Advisors—a fast-growing planning firm where protecting people's blind sides isn't just a tagline, it's deeply embedded in the culture.In this episode, Terence shares how he evolved from high-volume product sales to a planning-first model. He doesn't serve as many people, but the relationships got deeper, the work got better, and the clients got bigger.He unpacks how that transition fueled growth from $5M to $33M in annual new assets, how intentional language transformed his team's culture, and why the advisors who win long-term will be the ones who build real relationships—not just retirement plans.3 of the biggest insights from Terence…#1.) Why Language Matters More Than You ThinkTerence calls his clients “teammates”— and that one change has transformed the culture of his firm. His team doesn't “serve clients”; they protect their teammates. That small shift in language has created deeper connection, more ownership, and a community retirees actually want to be part of.#2.) Feedback Is a Superpower (If You Can Get Over Your Ego)Every athlete watches game film to improve. Terence brings that same philosophy into his business—recording every seminar, prompting AI to coach him, and treating every piece of feedback like a gift. His secret? Separating the message from the messenger so growth doesn't get blocked by ego.#3.) Solve Bigger Problems, Serve at a Deeper LevelBy shifting from a product-driven model to holistic planning, Terrence increased his average client AUM to over $700K — a significant jump from the smaller transactional accounts he started with. Fewer clients. Bigger impact. Stronger relationships. That's how he's building a firm and a legacy that lasts.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/128FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: 30 minute 1:1 coaching call with BradAre you a financial advisor who feels stuck, needs help, or simply wants to have a conversation with Brad?

Think you know how money works? Think again.   In this episode of the Wealth Wisdom Financial podcast, Brandon sits down with Grant Thompson, a financial strategist with 30+ years of boots-on-the-ground experience and a fierce passion for flipping the traditional money script.   Grant, a partner at Thompson & Thurman in Amarillo, TX, unpacks the Infinite Banking Concept and how he's helped clients, from business owners to families, take back control of their finances.   Inspired by Nelson Nash, Grant shares the pivotal moment that changed everything for him, and how that led to using whole life insurance, annuities, and cash flow strategies to build wealth outside Wall Street.   We're talking:

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Products that adjust for inflation  Thinking rationally about inflation  Reverse-engineering annuity    Key Takeaways:  Many bad sales pitches out there mention a way to beat inflation using indexed products that adjust for inflation. What really happens is that the annuity company severely lowers the initial payment to make up for any potential increase.  Think rationally about inflation. It's customizable to everybody, meaning not everyone is affected the same way. Some are not even affected at all.  Start with the goal or the need. How much more do you need in order to live the life that you want? To solve for that difference, you've got to shop all carriers and see which offers the highest contractual guarantee that will fit the goal or the need.    "Just hold until you need to fill the gap in income for inflation. Don't be proactive; don't throw darts at it. But if you do want to throw darts - let's buy income that starts at a future date." —  Stan The Annuity Man.    Connect with The Annuity Man:  Website: http://theannuityman.com/  Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com  Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g  Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator! 

In this episode, Brian Skrobonja breaks down ways to save, grow, and invest your money. He sheds light on what a well-diversified portfolio looks like, the true definition of financial freedom, and why you need different mindsets for spending versus investing money. We all want the same thing when it comes to money--we all desire to make money, grow money, and use the money that we have. However, most people have a belief system that is rooted strictly on growing money--which, on some level, makes sense. But this singular focus leaves out the idea of using money. Why is this important? Because how we grow money is not the same as how we spend money. Growing money and using money require different approaches and different ways of thinking. Brian reveals that many people spend money wrong. This is not about what people spend money on, but the source of the income being spent. If you earn a dollar and spend it, it's gone forever. If you earn a dollar and invest it for income, you potentially have income for life. Brian explains why it makes more sense to spend the money your investments earn versus spending the money you earn directly. Why is this important? If you want to grow your wealth over time, you should find ways to hang on to as much money as possible. What is the difference between making and growing money?  Brian breaks down a brilliant way to use other people's money to access cash while your money continues to grow.  The definition of passive income and the benefits of making money with little to no effort.  Better ways to generate income other than the stock market. Brian explains why the stock market is great for growing money, but it's not the best option for generating recurring income. Ideally, you want to position assets so you have a tax-free, passive income to live on. You need to have the ability to spend money with uninterrupted growth while simultaneously investing long-term. Financial freedom is defined by how much passive income you are generating.     Mentioned in this episode: BrianSkrobonja.com SkrobonjaFinancial.com SkrobonjaWealth.com BUILDbanking.com Common Sense Financial Podcast on YouTube  Common Sense Financial Podcast on Spotify     Securities offered only by duly registered individuals through Madison Avenue Securities, LLC.

Trump has Announced Several Astounding Trade Deals   The terms on the recent trade deals are very favorable for the United States.   -     Japan: 15% tariff, no tariff for US products, $550 billion joint-venture investment, 90% profit to US.   -     South Korea: 15% tariff, no tariff for US products, open market to US, $350 billion investment in US.   -     European Union: 15% tariff, no tariff for US products, $750 billion US energy purchase, $650 billion investment in the US.   The investments in the United States were negotiated to "buy down" the tariff rate. Total investments pledged are about $15 trillion so far. This is almost double the valuation of every Silicon Valley company combined.  The estimated tariff revenue for 2025 is about $700 billion.   These are massive numbers. This will have a huge impact on the US economy in the next few years. The upside potential is huge. This is one of the largest infrastructure projects in history. Similar to many building projects, there could be challenges and delays. This could cause significant volatility.   How do you take advantage of the strong potential upside while protecting your downside?   Annuities offer unlimited upside potential while guaranteeing the principle against loss.  - This is the "Golden Era" of fixed assets. The best rates in 40+ years, insured with guarantees. - If you own an annuity 2+ years old, I strongly recommend comparing to the newer more profitable products. - Many of my clients are earning 2-10x increased returns annually than their previous annuity products!      - Your Personal Bank policies are insured, with guarantees, income tax-free, highly liquid, and likely to increase returns for the next 5-10 years due to higher bond yields.      - Fixed Index Annuities have the best upside potential in 40+ years with no downside market risk. The principle is guaranteed. Some offer signing bonuses up to 17+% with strong upside potential.      - Guaranteed Lifetime Income is the highest in 40+ years. Some products offer up to 30% signing bonus. Other products offer up to 10% increased guaranteed lifetime income each year you defer.  

In this episode of 7 Figure Annuity Sales, host Caleb North highlights two critical mistakes that can quietly undermine an agent's entire lead strategy. These aren't just slip-ups—they're foundational errors that can derail your growth if left unchecked. Many agents pull the plug on a new lead system prematurely, basing their decision on initial impressions rather than measured results. Even worse, they point the finger at the leads themselves—when the real issue could be their sales process. ➡️ In this episode, you'll learn: Why abandoning a lead system too early can kill momentum and waste opportunity The key metrics you need to track to fairly evaluate any lead source How to identify whether the real problem is your leads or your process A framework for giving lead systems a structured, data-driven trial How top producers adapt and improve instead of starting from scratch If you're serious about building a predictable, profitable annuity business, you can't afford to make these mistakes. Caleb gives you the clarity and tools to move forward with confidence.

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Threading the needle with volatility Freedom from volatility Annuities are the haystack  Time to secure guarantees    Key Takeaways:  Threading the needle to get market returns makes you dependent upon so much unknown. You're dependent on world markets, geopolitical events, and meltdowns that are impossible to predict.  A lot of people can retire from their jobs and the market, and they should; those who can't yet should make it a goal to do that and be free from being dependent on volatility.  There's no threading the needle for principal protection; there's no finding the needle in a haystack for lifetime income. You don't need to find a needle; you need the haystack. Use an annuity to have the highest contractual guarantee.  What phase of your life are you in right now? If you're in the no-go stage, then it's time to stop losing sleep over the markets, and it's time to secure guarantees.    "Investing in markets a lot of times is like surfing the side of a cruise ship. Sometimes you're going to catch a wave right beside that cruise ship, but a lot of times, you're going to get sucked under the boat." —  Stan The Annuity Man.    Connect with The Annuity Man:  Website: http://theannuityman.com/  Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com  Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g  Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!

This week's Money Wise episode dives into another record-setting week on Wall Street, with the S&P 500 and NASDAQ closing at new all-time highs, while the Dow still lags behind. The team recaps the weekly gains, Dow up 1.3%, S&P up 1.5%, and NASDAQ up 1%, and emphasizes that, despite the headlines, only 8% of S&P 500 companies are trading at their 52-week highs, highlighting untapped opportunity beneath the surface. In the second half of the show, the guys tackle the importance of active management, especially in a market dominated by the Magnificent 7 tech stocks. They also take a closer look at the "big beautiful bill" and push back on the doom-and-gloom narratives often echoed by the financial entertainment press. “The Big Beautiful Bill” In this week's episode, the Money Wise guys also revisit the long-awaited “big beautiful bill,” highlighting how its recent passage could have meaningful economic implications. While details are still emerging, the legislation is expected to unlock further momentum for deregulation efforts and potentially stimulate business investment. The crew points out that much of the financial press hasn't fully explored how this bill may impact markets, particularly when it comes to the broader economic growth narrative. With Wall Street already climbing, the bill could add another layer of tailwind, especially for sectors poised to benefit from reduced red tape and pro-growth initiatives. In the second hour, the Money Wise guys discuss Equity Index Annuities. You don't want to miss the details!
