How to “future-proof” your finances: Guarding against inflation, longevity risk, and unexpected curveballs. Questions to Ponder During Today's Show: What would your perfect day look like if you didn't have to work tomorrow? Would you be willing to earn less now if it meant retiring five years earlier? What does “enough” look like for you—and how do you know when you've reached it?

In this episode of Stuff About Money They Didn't Teach You in School, Erik Garcia, CFP®, ChFC®, BFA™, and Xavier Angel, CFP®, ChFC®, CLTC, tackle one of the most important yet often overlooked financial topics: long-term care. The conversation kicks off with a laugh as Erik shares how Xavier nearly got himself kicked out of a professional study group for challenging the conventional wisdom around long term care insurance. That sets the stage for a lively discussion about why this issue matters so much, even if it is not the kind of thing people want to chat about at a cocktail party. Between sobering stats about rising care costs and Xavier's candid story of his aunt currently in a long term care facility, this episode keeps things engaging while shining a light on a subject that is too often ignored. But ignoring the problem does not make it go away. With the average nursing home room now costing well into six figures annually, long term care planning is a reality everyone needs to address. Erik and Xavier unpack the complexity, explaining why traditional policies may not be as reliable as they seem, why the financial planning around it can be so tricky, and how thinking in terms of cash flow might change the conversation entirely. Along the way, Erik lightens the mood with a surprisingly fitting analogy about chickens and eggs, reminding us that financial planning can be both practical and a little entertaining. Tune in, lean in, and be sure to share this episode with someone who may need a nudge to plan wisely for their future. Episode Highlights: Erik emphasizes why long term care matters, even for younger listeners, due to its inevitable impact on families. (01:12) Erik unpacks the challenges retirees face when fixed incomes meet rising care costs. (03:01) Xavier explains how some advisors buffer rate hikes by quoting higher premiums upfront. (04:00) Xavier shares a personal story to define long-term care as more than just insurance, it's physical and emotional support. (06:56) Xavier discusses the national costs of care and why planning for it is essential. (11:00) Erik outlines the risks of asset depletion and reduced income after losing a spouse. (13:38) Xavier explains how women statistically need care longer and why planning must consider longevity. (14:18) Erik highlights why long-term care planning must include income replacement strategies. (16:17) Xavier warns against “one-size-fits-all” insurance solutions in client conversations. (17:36) Erik uses a chicken-and-egg analogy to explain sustainable income planning. (21:53) Erik encourages listeners to focus on income streams over lump sums in planning for future care. (24:36) Xavier shares a case study about a client who prioritized legacy over self-care and why that needed to change. (25:39) Erik urges listeners to talk with aging parents now about their long-term care plans. (27:00) Key Quotes: “ As a planner, I'm always thinking about how does this affect you long term, not just today, but what happens 10 years from now? Because if we're doing your planning today, I'm still doing your planning 10 years from now.” - Xavier Angel, CFP®, ChFC®, CLTC “Even though you may not necessarily be taking direct action to solve a potential financial problem today or in the future, having the conversation about it is actually starting to solve the problem.” - Erik Garcia, CFP®, ChFC®, BFA™ “We are financial planners. We love helping people solve financial problems, and we love helping people make financial decisions that are in alignment with what is most important to them.” - Erik Garcia, CFP®, ChFC®, BFA™ Resources Mentioned: Erik Garcia, CFP®, BFA Xavier Angel, CFP®, ChFC, CLTC Plan Wisely Wealth Advisors

The college football season is about halfway over and there are a lot of teams' seasons that are sitting in the middle of catastrophe and staying in the College Football Playoff hunt. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss which of these teams may survive and who may be looking for a new coach at the end of the year. Does the losing coach of LSU and South Carolina have to be concerned for his job after so much preseason hype? Is the loser of Texas and Oklahoma eliminated them from CFP contention, or would Oklahoma be able to survive a loss? Will Hugh Freeze be out with a loss to Georgia?Later, a major controversy was the talk of the sports media world yesterday and today the guys discuss. The controversy surrounded Paul Finebaum's absence on ESPN after his interview with Clay Travis, where Finebaum spoke about potential interest in running for Republican Senate in Alabama. Monday, Travis claimed Finebaum was banned from the ESPN main network after not seeing Finebaum on any of the usual shows he is on over the last week. ESPN denied any truth to this and then speculation began. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss what all seems to be happening and if there appears to be any truth or if this all may be designed to drum up controversy.*Disclaimer: This conversation was recorded before any confirmation of Finebaum appearing on ESPN on Tuesday morning.Finally, in the new world of NIL and college football, some teams and conferences were bound to fall behind. Steven Godfrey discusses the difficulties the Group of Five teams are having in this new world. He and Andy chat about the concept of some schools dropping down to FCS, or to D-2, and how that may be better than struggling in the Division 1 landscape.

Are you overthinking your Roth conversion strategy? While Roth conversions can be powerful, not every retiree needs them. In this video, you'll learn when a Roth conversion truly makes sense—and when it may just add unnecessary complexity.Using the “cauliflower analogy,” we break down how Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) can push retirees into higher tax brackets, and why paying taxes now can sometimes help avoid bigger bills later. But there's an even more important question: could you be better off retiring earlier or spending more instead of over-optimizing your tax plan?We'll also highlight the sweet spot for conversions (between retirement and when Social Security and RMDs begin) when tax savings can be most effective. Ultimately, a great financial plan isn't defined by your Roth conversion strategy, but by building a life well lived. Whether you're considering your first conversion or refining your existing approach, this episode provides the foundation for making decisions aligned with what truly matters in your financial journey. - Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

Week 6 is in the books, and what looked like it was not going to be a very exciting week of college football proved to be anything but that. The premiere matchup of the night had #3 Miami visiting #18 Florida State. Despite a late comeback by the Seminoles, the Hurricanes proved to be the more dominant team as they walked away with a 28-22 win. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss Miami's performance, the emergence of Malachi Toney and the overwhelming Miami defense. Plus, they chat about if Miami will be the number one seed in the CFP and if FSU can still make a run for the playoff? Then, the guys discuss the most shocking upset of the day as 0-4 UCLA defeated #7 Penn State. Behind newly named OC Jerry Neuheisel, UCLA scored 42 points and hung on to win 42-37. After two devastating losses, what is going on with Penn State, and are there brighter days ahead this season?Later, the guys discuss another upset from Saturday as Florida took down #9 Texas. Arch Manning continued to struggle as he threw two interceptions on the way to a 29-21 Florida win. With so much hype entering the season, how can Arch turn his season around, or is it time to bench Arch Manning? Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss this and if there is a path for Texas to still make it to the CFP?Lastly, the guys discuss the other big matchup of the day that saw #10 Alabama avenge last season's upset and beat #16 Vanderbilt. Ty Simpson impressed with over 300 yards passing as Alabama continues to look like a much different team than the one the country saw in the first week of the season when they lost to Florida State. Is Alabama the team to beat out of the SEC despite their early season struggles? A difficult schedule will soon show what can be expected out of this team.All of this and more to wrap up Week 6 on College Football Enquirer.(1:28) - #3 Miami defeats #18 Florida State(19:35) - UCLA upsets #7 Penn State(31:15) - Florida upsets #9 Texas(52:04) - #10 Alabama defeats #16 Vanderbilt(1:04:38) - Around the country Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

In this week's episode, we break down the strength of the current stock market—after several years of 20%+ returns, we're on track for another strong year with the market up 15% heading into the fourth quarter. We discuss companies posting record profits, the sheer number of all-time highs we've seen, and debate whether this momentum represents a new normal or just an anomaly.We also dig into the drama of a government shutdown—what sparked it, what really happens when Washington stalls, and what history tells us about the real impact on the economy. We'll focus on what really matters for your money, and talk about the broader consequences along with what it might take to prevent future standoffs.Why does the economy look strong on paper while so many people feel squeezed? We dig into the growing divide between the “haves” and “have-nots,” where the top 10% income earners drive nearly half of all spending while the middle class is getting squeezed out. From budget hotels struggling to fill rooms to luxury resorts booked solid, we'll explore what this bifurcation means for the economy—and for everyday investors.To wrap up the show, we're taking a sweet detour into the world of dirty soda—the over-the-top, syrup-and-cream-loaded drinks that are taking TikTok by storm. From candy add-ins to premade bottles and even specialty soda shops, we'll explore why everyone suddenly wants their soda “dirty” and what this trend says about today's foodie culture.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C. Smith, CFP®, CEPA, and D.J. Barker, CWS®, and Kelly-Lynne Scalice, a seasoned communicator and host, on Henssler Money Talks as they explore key financial strategies to help investors navigate market uncertainty.

Week 6 is just a few days away and a few teams are out for some redemption this week. We start in Florida as #18 Florida State looks to redeem themselves after being upset last week at Virginia. However, the redemption will not come easy as they host #3 Miami. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss this matchup and look at what Florida State has on the line trying to avoid back-to-back losses. They also share their thoughts on this year's Miami team and what a win would do for their season. Could a win put them on the fast-track to the top seed in the CFP? Then, we head to Tuscaloosa as they discuss #10 Alabama hosting #16 Vanderbilt. Alabama is looking to avenge last season's major upset and there will be no underestimating Vanderbilt this year. Can Diego Pavia still lead Vandy to another upset?Later, Ross steps off of the field and onto the court as he shares a bit of insider news about college basketball's NCAA tournament. Talk about expanding the field has continued, with an increase to 76 teams being the most likely choice if the field does expand. Not only do the guys have some strong feelings about this potential move, but they also discuss if this could have any impact on CFP expansion talk. Then, ESPN's Dan Wetzel (who listeners might be familiar with) had to make sure the guys didn't run out of stories to talk about, so he broke some news on Wednesday about the Big Ten. The Big Ten is in talks about a $2 billion dollar investment from a private equity firm. Andy, Ross and Godfrey talk about the impact this could have on college football and the potential pitfalls it would create for the sport.Finally, the guys make their picks for this week's I've Got A Feeling. ULM, Mississippi State and the Texas vs. Florida UNDER are this week's choices. All of this and more to get you ready for another exciting week of college football with College Football Enquirer.

We've all heard the clichés: focus on what you can control, embrace the pain not the suffering, fight for what you want. Easy to dismiss, right? But the truth is, those sayings stick around for a reason. They hold the kind of wisdom that can change how you approach life, work, and even setbacks.What often gets missed is that clichés aren't about perfection, they're about perspective. They remind you that regret comes from the chances you didn't take, that discipline lasts longer than motivation, and that consistency matters more than bursts of effort. It's not about chasing outcomes—it's about showing up, day after day, for the things that matter most.One question that flips the script: How do I minimize future regrets? Suddenly, clichés like “control what you can” or “give it your all” stop sounding tired and start feeling urgent. They're not just empty lines, they're the compass for your decisions.When you finally pay attention to the advice you've heard a thousand times, life feels lighter, setbacks feel smaller, and your goals feel closer. It's not about ignoring the noise, it's about finally hearing the truth inside it.Which cliché have you been ignoring that's ready to guide you?-Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

With the first month of the season in the books, FOX Sports' lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt make his picks for what the College Football Playoff will look like on selection day in December. He begins by making his Conference Championship Game picks and works his way through the 12-team field. He reveals which current Top-5 team he has missing out on the Playoff altogether before answering the big questions left to be determined this season like who will make the Championship Game in the SEC and whether Ohio State will run the table. Will Penn State rebound from their loss to Oregon and get back to the Playoff? Could Michigan sneak into the field and will Notre Dame win out and make the field? Klatt wraps up the show by dipping into the mailbag and answering questions about potential trap games in the next few weeks, why college football has more scoring than the NFL and whether the U.S. Ryder Cup team could use someone like Coach K to lead the program going forward. 0:00-2:10 Intro2:11-23:06 Joel's new CFP bracket23:07-27:19 What are some upcoming trap games?27:20-31:36 Why is there more scoring in CFB than in the NFL?31:37-36:39 Should the US get a coach outside of golf for the Ryder Cup?

Think your retirement plan is bulletproof? Think again. In this eye-opening episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug are joined by certified financial planner Jeremy Keil, CFP® to walk you through the steps to building a retirement plan that won't crack under pressure. From mapping out your spending before you ever leave the workforce to crafting a tax strategy that keeps more money in your pocket, this conversation is your blueprint for making your golden years actually golden. But just when you think you've got retirement handled, we throw a curveball: private equity. With giants like Goldman Sachs and T. Rowe Price trying to slip these complex investments into your 401(k), it's time to ask whether “more opportunity” is really a good thing — or a trap for the unprepared. Joe and OG break down the risks, the realities, and what you need to know before you sign on the dotted line. As always, we serve it all with a side of basement banter — from Doug's trivia about the first issue of Playboy to a TikTok football moment you didn't know you needed — plus real-life stories that prove retirement planning is as much about mindset as it is about math. What You'll Learn In Today's Show: The five key steps to building a retirement plan that works for you, not just a generic spreadsheet. Why starting with your spending habits (not investments) can make or break your retirement success. How to prepare for the emotional side of retirement — including those pesky “what now?” questions. The surprising risks of private equity creeping into your 401(k) — and how to decide if it's worth it. Smart tax strategies to make your retirement money last longer. How long-term care, market volatility, and unexpected expenses should factor into your plan. Questions to Ponder During the Episode (and discuss with other Stackers!) What's one spending habit you need to understand now to avoid retirement surprises later? How would you react if your employer added private equity options to your 401(k)? Are you planning your retirement based on your lifestyle — or someone else's idea of “enough”? FULL SHOW NOTES: https://stackingbenjamins.com/five-steps-to-a-better-retirement-plan-with-jeremy-keil-1743 Deeper dives with curated links, topics, and discussions are in our newsletter, The 201, available at https://www.stackingbenjamins.com/201 Enjoy!

Hosts Brad Fowler and Alex Higdon break down all the biggest storylines from Week 4 in the NFL and Week 5 in College Football. We cover — Oregon and Penn State deliver a double OT thriller where Dante Moore proved he belongs in the best QB in CFB conversation, plus Ty Simpson showing why he’s a top 5 QB in the nation as Alabama knocks off Georgia. LSU’s offense continues to be a disaster, while Lane Kiffin’s Ole Miss squad looks like a real contender. We explain why Notre Dame could be out of the CFP race, and why it might finally be time for the Irish to join the Big Ten. On the NFL side, the Ravens are falling apart as Lamar Jackson still struggles in the big games and Kansas City suddenly has a clear path in the AFC. We hit on the Eagles’ big win over Tampa Bay, the Sunday Night Football debacle between Green Bay and Dallas, and what it all means moving forward. And as always, we hand out this week's NFL Game Balls and CFB Helmet Stickers to the weekend’s top performers.
Women control more wealth than ever—so how do you find an advisor who listens, explains clearly, and shares your values? According to McKinsey & Company, by 2030, women are expected to control nearly two-thirds of U.S. assets—around $30 trillion. With that kind of stewardship comes both opportunity and responsibility. Today, Sharon Epps joins us to share five simple practices that women should expect from their financial advisors.Sharon Epps is the President of Kingdom Advisors, FaithFi's parent organization. Kingdom Advisors serves the broad Christian financial industry by educating and equipping professionals to integrate biblical wisdom and financial expertise.Key Practices Every Client Should Look ForWhen it comes to choosing a financial advisor, women don't need a different standard—they simply need the right standard done well. At Kingdom Advisors, we train Certified Kingdom Advisors (CKAs®) to integrate biblical wisdom into their practices while also serving clients with excellence and care.If you're interviewing an advisor, here are five practices to watch for. These principles will help you find someone who not only understands finances but also values clarity, empathy, and shared purpose.1. Clear TerminologyFinancial jargon can be overwhelming. Terms like RIA or CFP® often make sense only to industry insiders. A good advisor should be able to pause, explain concepts in everyday language, and use analogies that make complex ideas easier to understand. Look for someone who welcomes your questions and ensures you truly understand the path forward.2. A Warm and Welcoming EnvironmentWe often say to “light a candle”—not literally, but figuratively. The goal is to create a space that feels safe and welcoming, rather than intimidating. Just like hotels offer warm cookies to make guests feel at home, a thoughtful advisor will create an environment where you feel respected and comfortable.3. Transparency in All ThingsAn advisor has a fiduciary responsibility to be transparent—but the best ones go beyond compliance. They openly share how they are compensated, outline every fee on paper, and invite accountability. As a client, don't hesitate to ask where you can see these details clearly documented.4. Interest in More Than MoneyWe teach advisors to “use a magnifying glass”—to look beyond the numbers. Money is simply a tool to help you fulfill God's calling on your life. A trusted advisor should ask about your values, dreams, and purposes—not just your portfolio. That's why the CKA® designation is so important: it connects you with advisors who share your values and can integrate them into financial decisions.5. Developing God's Heart for the Whole PersonThe most important practice is what we call whole-person care. Advisors aren't just money managers—they're disciple-makers. They should walk alongside you and your family in prayer, through significant life transitions, and in building unity between spouses. Women's voices should be heard and respected just as much as men's in every financial conversation.Our prayer is that these five practices give you confidence as you search for the right advisor. You deserve clarity, empathy, and values that align with your faith.

In 2020, contractors found I also needed new decking, and an insurance employee told me they'd cover it once the work was finished. Now the company is threatening not to renew my policy unless I replace the roof at my own expense. How can I get them to honor their commitment?My dad passed away over a year ago, and my mom is trying to qualify for Social Security benefits. The issue is that my dad didn't have 40 credits, and neither does she. Is there any way their credits can be combined so she can meet the requirement?I heard about a provision in a new bill that allows accounts to be set up for children. Is it true that the government will put money into accounts for kids born in the next few years? If so, how would I participate?I'd like to encourage my two adult children to start investing in Roth IRAs.

Today on Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast number 549 with Joe Anderson, CFP® and Big Al Clopine, CPA, a comment on one of our YouTube videos sparks a dialogue between Joe and Big Al on the 4% rule vs. the "guardrails" withdrawal strategy. Joe at the Beach is managing his ~$6M portfolio on his own, but wants the fellas' take on his upper limit for yearly spending, so he can keep drinking his old-fashioneds. Can Joe Ko in Virginia afford to bridge the gap between retiring at 67 and taking Social Security at 70? Plus, "Harold and Maude" have nearly $7M saved.
