Explore the rising threat of national debt, future tax hikes, and how Americans can prepare.The Concierge CPAWith Jackie MeyerFor CPA TrendlinesThe U.S. is hurtling toward an economic reckoning, and most Americans are dangerously unprepared. That's the warning delivered in the latest episode of The Concierge CPA podcast, where host Jackie Meyer sits down with financial planning expert David Spence, CPA, CFP, CLU, PFS, to unpack how today's economic decisions could impact tomorrow's taxpayers.More Jackie MeyerSpence's message is clear: history shows that skyrocketing national debt leads to one inevitable outcome—higher taxes. "After World War II, with debt at 120% of GDP, top tax rates soared to 94%," Spence explains. "Today, we're at 130% of GDP, and we're already paying massive interest on our debt—more than we spend on defense."Given these realities, Spence argues it's critical for Americans to shift their focus toward tax-free income sources. Strategies such as Roth IRAs, Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), and Life Insurance Retirement Plans (LIRPs) could become lifelines in a future where traditional retirement accounts might be heavily taxed.

Martin Luther once said, “There is no more lovely, friendly, and charming relationship, communion, or company than a good marriage.”A strong marriage is a blessing but requires intentional effort, especially in a blended family. Today, Ron Deal and Greg Pettys join the show to discuss a valuable resource for second marriages.Ron Deal is a bestselling author, licensed marriage & family therapist, podcaster, and popular conference speaker who specializes in marriage enrichment and stepfamily education and is the co-author of The Smart Stepfamily Guide to Financial Planning: Money Management Before and After You Blend a Family. Greg Pettys, CLU, ChFC, CFP, has thirty-four years of specialized experience in securities and life insurance sales and services. He is the co-author of The Smart Stepfamily Guide to Financial Planning: Money Management Before and After You Blend a Family.Understanding the Financial Challenges of Blended FamiliesWhen two people enter a marriage with previous financial histories, children, and life experiences, their financial situation becomes more complex than that of a first-time marriage. They may bring:Separate bank accounts and investmentsExisting debts and financial obligationsDifferent parenting and financial philosophiesThe need to provide for children from previous relationshipsConcerns over inheritance and estate planningMerging finances in a blended family isn't just about money—it's about trust, provision, and love. Without clear communication and planning, financial disagreements can create tension, causing stress in the relationship.What Is a Togetherness Agreement?A Togetherness Agreement is a structured approach for blended couples to clarify their financial decisions, ensuring transparency and unity. More than just a financial plan, it is a tool for fostering trust and eliminating fear. It's not just about bank accounts and investments—it's about love, respect, and providing well for one another. It brings clarity to emotionally charged financial topics, ensuring that both partners are aligned in their vision for the future.Why Is a Togetherness Agreement Important?1. It Provides Financial TransparencyMany couples enter marriage with financial baggage—whether it's debt, differing views on money management, or past experiences that have led to distrust. A Togetherness Agreement creates a safe space for full financial disclosure.2. It Helps Prevent Conflict Over MoneyMoney is one of the top stressors in any marriage, but in blended families, the stakes are even higher. The agreement ensures both spouses are on the same page regarding financial expectations and responsibilities.3. It Protects Children and Future GenerationsWithout a clear plan, assets and inheritance can unintentionally drift away from children from previous marriages. The agreement helps ensure that financial resources are distributed according to the couple's wishes, not just default legal systems.4. It Strengthens Marital Trust and UnityA Togetherness Agreement fosters open communication, allowing couples to plan their future confidently rather than fearfully. It shifts financial discussions from potential sources of conflict to proactive, loving conversations.What Should a Togetherness Agreement Include?A Togetherness Agreement can be as formal or informal as a couple chooses. While some opt for a legally binding contract, even a simple written plan can be valuable. Key components may include:Bank Account Structure—Should finances be merged, kept separate, or a combination of both?Debt and Credit Considerations—How will existing debts be managed, and how will future credit decisions be made?Business Ownership—If one spouse owns a business, what will happen to it in the event of death or divorce?Financial Responsibilities—Who is responsible for household expenses, savings, and long-term care for aging parents?Inheritance and Estate Planning—How will assets be distributed to biological and stepchildren?Contingency Plans—What provisions are in place for special needs children, elderly parents, or unexpected life changes?When Should Couples Create a Togetherness Agreement?Ideally, discussions about financial planning should begin before marriage. However, it's never too late to start if you're already married and haven't had these conversations.If you're dating, start the conversation now. If you're already married, don't wait—begin today. The Smart Step Family Guide to Financial Planning provides a step-by-step guide to help you navigate these important discussions.A Togetherness Agreement is an essential tool for blended families to navigate finances with wisdom, clarity, and love. By fostering open communication and financial unity, couples can build a secure foundation for their marriage and their future.If you're in a blended family, consider creating your own Togetherness Agreement today—it might be the most valuable financial decision you ever make.For more insights, pick up a copy of The Smart Step Family Guide to Financial Planning and start building a financial roadmap that aligns with your family's unique needs.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My question has two parts.

Send us a textDr. Giovanna Del Guidice has spent her entire career in pursuit of promoting a more humane and relationship-based treatment ethos for people living with mental health conditions. In this interview we hear the story about how she boldly travelled to Colorno Italy as a young psychiatrist in her 20's to meet Franco Basaglia in person. The fact that she had read his books and wanted to follow his lead, because she was uncomfortable with the teachings of conventional psychiatry, clearly impressed him because you will hear the story about how she was offered a job and became part of the original equipe! On her part, it was a bold move but clearly changed the trajectory of her life. Giovanna, since 2010, has been involved in the Conferenza Basaglia (CONFERENZA PERMANENTE PER LA SALUTE MENTALE NEL MONDO FRANCO BASAGLIA ). This is an organization that she co-founded with Dr. Franco Rotelli, the psychiatrist who followed Franco Basaglia to lead the mental health department in Trieste in the late 1970's. She currently serves as president.From the website, her biography is presented:“Psychiatrist, one of Franco Basaglia's collaborators, has worked since 1971 in the deconstruction process of the Trieste psychiatric hospital and for the construction of community mental health services. She was director of the mental health department of the Caserta Health Authority (2002-2006) and of Cagliari (2006-2009). Mental health consultant of the Calabria health councilor. She is a champion for the abolition of mechanical restraint in mental health services, which is seen as a remnant of the old asylum culture and is detrimental to the dignity and rights of those who suffer it, but also negatively impacts the operators who are required to implement it. She is the author of a book … e tu slegalo subito (“and you untie it immediately”) which was published in 2020. [Note: this Vimeo trailer for the book underscores why this is such an inhumane practice.] In this episode, we are aided by the translation skills of Erika Rossi, a documentary filmmaker who recently directed a film that features Giovanna Del Guidice among many others. The film, 50 years of CLU, captures the story of the formation of the first social cooperative in Trieste.
In this episode of The Concierge CPA Podcast, Dr. Jackie Meyer interviews Dave Spence, founder of Tax-Free Tutors.

Hello Rank Squad! We're taking things a little off-piste this week here on Ranks, stepping away from the transfer news that has dominated the headlines (and our recent podcasts) to take a bit of a wider look at the season so far as a whole - and specifically who has put themselves in strong positions to lift trophies at the end of the campaign. We start things off by looking back at the final of the Supercopa de España where Barcelona beat Real Madrid 5-2 to lift their first silverware of the season, and examining what the performance means for the hopes of both clubs for the rest of this season. It leads us into a discussion around the Champions League and who looks on course to go deep. In Part Two, we discuss four of Europe's biggest leagues, the Premier League, the Bundesliga, La Liga and Serie A, and the title races that exist within them; before finishing with a quick look at the Europa League and the Conference League for good measure.It's Ranks! And remember, if you'd like more from the Rank Squad, including extra podcasts every Monday and Friday (including our weekly Postbox taking a look at the whole weekend of football) and access to our brilliant Discord community, then why not join us here on Patreon?

Powerball, Mega Millions Cash for Life and more. Missouri offers many games of chance that have potential benefits for the players and guaranteed benefits for the State. In fact, the Missouri Lottery has contributed about 3 to 4% of the annual State funding for public education in the State of Missouri, more than 8 billion dollars to the State since 1986. These games describe the chances that a player will win a given game, often using calculations common in a probability class, such as permutations and combinations. So what happens if you check the calculations and you find that the calculations are not correct. A tale of lottery calculations, checked and fixed, is the focus of this episode of Stats and Stories. Dr. Matthew McIntosh is an Assistant Teaching Professor in the Department of Statistics at the University of Missouri. Before transitioning into academia, Dr. McIntosh spent nearly three decades in clinical research, bringing valuable real-world insights to his teaching and research. In the Spring of 2023, he developed the Keno Project, an initiative aimed at correcting the displayed odds of winning the Keno lottery game in state lotteries, with a focus on engaging undergraduate students in statistical research. The project's first manuscript has been accepted for publication in Significance magazine. His research interests include power analysis, sample size determination, and promoting undergraduate research in statistics. Dr. McIntosh's recent publications in sample size calculations focus on multiple linear regression and multivariate one-sided hypothesis tests. In 2018, outside his university work, Dr. McIntosh created statisticsmatt, a YouTube channel that offers tutorials and educational content for both undergraduate and graduate statistics students. Joseph is a senior studying Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Mathematics at the University of Missouri. Since his sophomore year, he has contributed to the Keno Project, using statistical models to derive accurate odds for the lottery game Keno, addressing discrepancies often found on state lottery playslips and websites. His work, which has been accepted for publication in Significance magazine, marks a key milestone in his academic journey. As an active member of the Mizzou Racing team, Joseph helps design and build a formula-style car from the ground up, gaining hands-on experience in motorsport engineering. This aligns with his goal of pursuing a career in motorsport, with the ultimate aim of working in Formula 1.

Is an executive or leader in your company struggling? Reach out to Eric to discuss how his transformative executive coaching approach can help. Schedule a 10 minute call with Eric today to learn more: 10minuteswitheric.youcanbook.me Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) are a topic many construction companies consider when planning their business transitions. ESOPs are a proven strategy that allows owners to leverage the wealth they've built through hard work and dedication. Kelly Finnell, J.D., CLU, AIF, is one of the nation's premier Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) consultants. For over four decades, he has been assisting business owners in creating and implementing ESOPs. He has spent decades discussing ESOPs with corporations and groups, giving presentations at over 300 conferences and meetings in the United States and internationally in London and Sydney. His company, Executive Financial Services, is a national ESOP consulting firm founded in 1981 and headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee. Their diverse team of experienced professionals is focused on utilizing Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) for Ownership Succession Planning and possesses deep expertise in this specialized area. He joined us today to talk about the process of building a successful ESOP. We start the conversation with Kelly explaining the biggest challenge in ESOPs: understanding what an ESOP is. Kelly further shares that business owners, especially in the construction industry, need to be patient and prepared for a steep learning curve. An ESOP serves both as a qualified retirement plan and as a liquidity strategy for current owners. Kelly then explains who would best fit ESOPS, saying that it is typically best suited for business owners seeking a gradual exit over five to eight years. For owners wanting to walk away and not look back, a third-party sale would be more appropriate. We then pay attention to the cultural transition that comes with an ESOP. Kelly shares that companies that prioritize maintaining their culture after a sale are ideal candidates for an employee stock ownership plan. Unlike third-party sales, which often lead to cultural shifts that can alienate both employees and customers, an ESOP facilitates an internal transition that helps preserve the existing culture. Further into the conversation, we cover the following topics regarding building a successful foundation for ESOP: ESOP failures and how to avoid them, the initial steps of getting familiar with ESOP, how to address the challenges that come with active and inactive children in a family-owned business, how to navigate personal guarantees. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS [02.01] Understanding what an ESOP is. [06.21] Risks to be aware of when building a foundation for ESOP. [08.39] The standard time frame for exiting a company. [10.50] The importance of effective communication when implementing an ESOP. [15.15] How to keep employees engaged in the ESOP process during the early years? [18.03] Cultural transition and ESOP. [25.08] Avoiding ESOP failure. [27.26] The first steps of getting familiar with ESOP. [31.11] Retirement planning. [33.48] Addressing challenges regarding active and inactive children in a family-owned business. [38.17] Navigating personal guarantees.
