Podcast appearances and mentions of ashley micciche

Welcome to a new week here on the Retirement Quick Tips podcast! I'm your host, Ashley Micciche. Back in March, I came across a 2024 report from Investopedia that looked at all the things that define the American Dream - getting married, buying a house with that white picket fence, having kids, driving a nice, reliable car, owning pets, taking an annual vacation, saving enough for a comfortable retirement,and having a funeral where they don't throw your body in a pine box (unless you're into that minimal aesthetic).  What does it all cost to live the American Dream over your lifetime? $4.4 million. Can you live a fulfilling life with less? Absolutely! But I think exploring these areas together is a helpful exercise to see how your attitudes and beliefs on spending money compare to what the average American says are what they want to achieve in life.  So this week, I'll break down each of these categories of “livin the dream”, explain how Investopedia came up with their numbers and see how that compares with your own personal definition of the American dream. Come on back tomorrow…where I'm starting at the beginning and the end. We'll talk about wedding and funeral costs.

Welcome to a new week here on the Retirement Quick Tips podcast! I'm your host, Ashley Micciche. So this week, I'm answering some of your questions - addressing everything from what to do when you get a big raise to figuring out the ideal age to start social security, to whether or not the ultra-safe stable value fund in your 401k is a good idea right now.

Welcome to a new week here on the Retirement Quick Tips podcast! I'm your host, Ashley Micciche. One of my favorite questions that I came across recently that I've started asking clients who are nervous about the current environment now is - what needs to happen for you to feel more in control right now?  It's important to ask the right questions and I find this question to be helpful because it gets to the heart of the issue for most people - you're not in control of the events of the world, yet you're feeling the effects of those events in a very real way as your investments go up and so far this year…down. Sometimes it's a small change that can make all the difference - slightly lowering your allocation to stocks, selling a particular position that is the most volatile, moving more into cash so at least you won't need to sell stocks if things get worse from here.  The key is keeping the long-term view in focus and not let current events cause you to completely abandon your long-term investment strategy. And just doing something - the smallest thing in many cases - is enough to help you stay stick to your plan. So this week we're exploring the topic: How to Keep Your Focus (and Your Nerve) Amid Market Chaos

Welcome to a new week here on the Retirement Quick Tips podcast! I'm your host and guide, Ashley Micciche.

For 17 years, I've helped my clients retire with confidence, and my goal on this podcast is to help you simplify the complexities of retirement so you can focus on what truly matters— living a fulfilling retirement while maintaining financial security. I just turned 40 last week. I still don't know how I feel about it. They say that age is just a number, but I don't really agree with that. Another birthday and another trip around the sun is an annual reminder that life on this earth is very brief, and hopefully we all grow to be better & wiser along our journey of life.  Do I feel older this year? I've been having a lot of pain in my hips and back recently. The other day I was bending over to help one of my kids with something, and as I stood up again, I couldn't do that all at once. I got stuck about ⅔ of the way back up, and had to pause and move slow the rest of the way back to vertical. I'm constantly putting on hand lotion because the skin on the back of my hands are starting to look all crepey. Stuff that didn't even enter into my orbit now occupies mental space in my head - like I better take it slow standing back up and did I remember to put my crepe cream on before bed.  So I definitely feel older. Wiser too? Maybe, we'll see…Because this week and next week on the podcast, I'll be sharing with you 40 life lessons I've learned over the last 40 years.

I'm turning 40 this week. And I was planning to share with you 40 life lessons I've learned over the last 40 years, but as I was getting ready to record, the stock market continued it's turbulent path and both the Nasdaq and S&P 500 officially entered correction territory. So I thought it would be timely and hopefully more valuable to share some insights on corrections - what they mean, how to deal with them, and discuss what to do.

I was originally planning to talk about financial scams this week and how to spot and prevent them, especially in the new world of AI. But then as I was getting ready to record, the stock market went into a total meltdown over Trump's tariffs. No doubt if you've been following the news that this has been on your mind. Regardless of political leanings, my clients have been nervous about what the impact of tariffs will be on the economy and their portfolios. So this week, I'll help you digest the tariffs and together we'll try to make sense of what that means and what you may want to do about it.

It's Sunday, which means...it's recap time here on the Retirement Quick Tips Podcast.  The theme this week was:Year-End Tax Planning Tips with Sean Mullaney, The FI Tax Guy I really enjoyed talking with Sean and getting his perspective on year-end tax planning considerations for investors.  The most important takeaway from this week is that it's always important in the last few weeks of the year to take a look at your income and tax situation and decide if there is anything else you could or should be doing to help with keeping your taxes lower in the current year, or in the case of the Roth conversion, looking ahead to future years to lower your taxes down the road.  The time to do this is now…before the distraction of the holidays pushes these planning tips to the wayside. Better yet, if you have a tax advisor, now is a great time to connect with them, be proactive, and ask them specifically about the tax savings strategies that appeal to you - get their opinion on which ones make the most sense in your situation and  Tomorrow, 10 Money Tips From A 10 Year Old. My daughter Keegan has been eager to get on the podcast, and she's a very outgoing and chatty girl, so she has a lot to say about a great many things - even money.  Children can be so wise, and they see things from an entirely different perspective than we can as adults. They're free from many of the money challenges that plague adults because of experiences, upbringing, hard knocks and successes.  So next week, you'll hear her unfiltered perspective on money and life.  Thank you so much for listening this week!

Link to register for November's Office Hours: https://bit.ly/40fsBr2    Welcome to the Retirement Quick Tips podcast! I'm your host Ashley Micciche, co-owner of True North Retirement Advisors, an independent financial advisory practice managing over $400 million in client assets.    This week I'm traveling for work - actually I'll be in Atlanta, but by the time you hear this episode, I'll be back home again. I do love Georgia - the last time I was in 2013 when I went to the Masters in Augusta with my dad. That was a special trip and he got to cross off his #1 bucket list item. No golf this time, but it will be interesting to be in a swing state so close to the election.    I live in Oregon which is so deep blue, it's almost black out here, so we don't even have any political ads. In fact, true story, you won't even find any information about Trump in the official Oregon voter pamphlet. True story - google it. But I digress...    Since I'm traveling, I don't have any new episodes this week, but I do have a special announcement - coming back for a 3rd installment for 2024 is another office hours session where you'll have the chance to ask me your most burning question about retirement.    Sessions in May and August filled up quickly, so if you want to pick my brain you can click on the link in the show notes to register.    I'm switching up the format for this Office Hours. The last 2 were group discussions via Zoom, this time you'll sign up for a one-on-one session. I've had some feedback where some people prefer the one-on-one format for personal financial questions, so we'll give that a try this time around.    I love meeting listeners and it's a lot of fun to answer your questions - I always learn something and I hope you will too! At the very least, you'll come away with some valuable insight, more clarity, and actionable next steps on what's most on your mind regarding retirement! All with no strings attached!  Note: There are 6 time slots available. Click on the date to see all available times and follow the steps to book your preferred time slot. If you don't see an available time, please send me an email and I will add you to the waitlist. Email: ashleym@truenorthra.com  Link to register:https://bit.ly/40fsBr2    Thanks for listening! I look forward to hearing your questions in next month's office hours!
