The countermeasures, which were due to begin this month, came in response to President Donald Trump's initial import taxes on steel and aluminium. UK correspondent Gavin Grey says Trump has recently threatened to bring in higher tariffs for the European Union on top of the earlier sanctions.

In this episode, I share the reality of running a live daygame course while running on little sleep — and why showing up tired is still better than not showing up at all. I also explore a common dating mistake: delaying intimacy because you think a woman is “different” or more reserved. That mindset creates false dynamics and often leads to frustration. If you've ever talked yourself out of taking action or overthought a connection, this vlog will give you a grounded perspective to reset your mindset and lead with confidence.

Episode 200: What makes someone an adult? Is it a job? A mortgage? A family? Or something harder to define, like emotional maturity or civic contribution? In this 200th episode of The Ethical Life podcast, hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada explore how our expectations around growing up have shifted and whether the long arc toward independence seen in younger generations is a sign of thoughtful living or a troubling retreat from responsibility. Rada reflects on his eagerness as a child to do things independently and how that shaped his adult identity. Kyte shares a contrasting view: as a teenager, he felt apprehensive about the demands of adulthood, even as he took on responsibilities like ski patrol work at the age of 16. That contrast sets the stage for a wide-ranging conversation about why some people seem to rush toward maturity while others hold back. The episode touches on parenting styles, changing economic conditions, birth order and the influence of trauma — all factors that can shape when and how someone begins to take ownership of their life. But it also dives into the ethical implications: Do we owe it to our communities to “grow up” on a socially accepted timeline? Or is it fair — even wise — to proceed at your own pace? Along the way, they discuss the story of a 27-year-old “Jeopardy!” contestant who described himself as a “stay-at-home son,” raising questions about whether clever labels obscure real consequences. When does personal choice cross into social withdrawal? As always, the show ends with an ethical dilemma. This week’s question: Should a stranger ever step in to correct someone else’s child? What about another adult? A conversation that starts with a 4-year-old’s foot on a train seat reveals much deeper attitudes about authority, community and accountability.

Big day in the Bryan Kohberger case: Judge Hipler will review motions including the defense's request to delay the trial and various evidence regarding the Idaho4 murder investigation. Don't miss our full breakdown and live coverage—subscribe now for the latest on this breaking true crime story. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #truecrime and in this case...live coverage of a big true crime story. STS Host Joel Waldman will be joined for analysis after the hearing with #BestGuest Attorney Tim Jansen who has been following the case. And let's remember the four college students who were murdered in Moscow, Idaho. The Idaho4 include Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Bryan Kohberger, a former criminology Ph.D. student at Washington State University, faces four counts of first-degree murder and one count of burglary in connection with the brutal stabbing deaths of four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin—on November 13, 2022. The trial, initially set for June 2025, has been delayed to August 11, 2025, with jury selection beginning July 30. Defense attorney Anne Taylor argues that the extensive media coverage and the complexity of the case, including over 51 terabytes of evidence and more than 400 potential witnesses, necessitate more time to prepare. Prosecutors, led by Bill Thompson, contend that the defense has adequate resources and that the victims' families deserve timely justice. Judge Steven Hippler is expected to rule on several motions, including the possibility of a death penalty and the admissibility of evidence related to alternate suspects.⸻ #Support the show:All Things STS: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast#BryanKohberger #Idaho4 #IdahoMurders #MoscowIdaho #TrueCrime #IdahoStudents #TrueCrimeCommunity #CrimeJunkie #JusticeForIdaho4 #BryanKohbergerTrial #stsnation #murdermystery #trial

Most pre-retirees believe that saving more money means a more secure retirement—but what if that mindset is actually holding you back? In this episode, host Adam Olson dives into the over-saving trap, a common financial mistake that leaves retirees living well below their means, missing out on the life they worked so hard to build. Instead of securing financial freedom, they create a self-imposed financial prison.Adam breaks down why fear of market downturns, healthcare costs, and running out of money cause many to delay retirement unnecessarily or drastically underspend when they don't have to. With real-life examples and practical financial strategies, this episode uncovers why a structured retirement income plan is more important than just accumulating a big savings balance.Key Takeaways: • More savings doesn't equal more security—structured income does. • The retirement red zone (5-10 years before and after retirement) is the most critical period for financial decisions. • Delaying retirement due to fear can steal your best years and lead to unnecessary work stress. • Creating tax-efficient income streams prevents a financial “tax bomb” later in retirement. • True legacy isn't just about passing down wealth—it's about using your wealth wisely today while securing generational financial stability.If you're ready to rethink your approach to retirement and start living freely without fear, this episode is for you.

In this milestone 100th episode of the Common Sense Financial Podcast, host Brian Skrobonja delves into the critical topic of managing taxes in retirement. The episode focuses on strategies for minimizing tax liabilities, especially for retirees with tax-deferred accounts facing potential hefty tax bills. Brian emphasizes the importance of sustainable income creation during retirement and the role of tax optimization in this process. Most people envision their retirement to be built from predominantly tax-free income, but after many years of deferring taxes, retirees are facing a sizable tax bill on distributions taken from their retirement accounts that could be a third or more of what has been accumulated. When you're saving for retirement, growth of your assets is the priority. But many people don't realize that once they retire that's no longer true. The priority is actually creating sustainable income to support you through retirement while minimizing taxes. A common issue I've seen is future retirees knowing they will owe taxes on their deferred accounts, but not realizing the extent of the problem since the rules change once they retire. Many retirees we work with tend to have the same income goals in retirement, yet with fewer deductions. They no longer have children or mortgage interest to help them offset their tax burdens, which makes the situation more complex. Delaying distributions isn't an option either. Required Minimum Distributions will eventually force your hand. There are two tax problems facing retirees: taxes you will have to contend with today, and taxes that you will have to contend with in the future. With the national deficit continuing to rise, do you expect tax rates to go down in the future or go up? The most likely answer is that tax rates are on the rise, so we should be planning accordingly. There are two possibilities to help minimize the level at which you participate in paying your fair share towards the government's future revenue increases. You can either complete a Roth conversion or through tax deferred withdrawals contribute to an overfunded permanent life insurance policy. Making the decision of which strategy to implement is the easy part. The trick really is completing this process with minimal tax liabilities, which requires specialized knowledge. The progressive nature of the code makes understanding your tax burden complicated and miscalculating this could result in having a larger tax liability than anticipated. Depending on your income level, a taxable distribution can subject your Social Security to additional taxes. This is a separate calculation from the income tax brackets and uses a two step process to determine how much of your social security will be subject to taxation. This is important to know because a taxable distribution may not only push you into a higher income tax bracket, but it could trigger additional taxes on your social security, which could result in a higher effective rate. You should also be aware of the impact a taxable distribution can have on Medicare premiums. The impact of any possible premium increase is typically delayed by two years. This is one of those things that often comes as a surprise when people make decisions about distributions. The antidote to taxable income is deductions, credits and losses which can help reduce the net income subject to tax. There are a few options that can help offset the burden of taxes and make the transition from tax-deferred to tax-free easier, but they don't work for everyone, which is why we recommend working with a professional. The first thing is a donor advised fund or DAF. This allows you to contribute future charitable donations into a fund that you control when distributions are made that can also receive the tax benefit of the donation in the year you make the contribution into the fund. By making multiple years of donations in a single year into that fund, you have the potential of helping offset a taxable distribution from your retirement account in that year. The second is a Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT), where you can contribute future charitable donations into the trust and receive the tax benefit of the donation in the year you make the contribution. You can also receive income from the trust while you're living within IRS limits. A CRT is a more complex arrangement than a DAF with many options and requires an attorney to draft the trust. The third is a qualified charitable donation or QCD, which allows for anyone over the age of 70 and a half to make a direct donation from a qualified account to a charity. The fourth is something known as IDCs, or intangible drilling costs, which allows accredited investors to participate in the drilling expenses of an oil and gas company that could provide reportable tax losses that can help offset all forms of income, as well as the potential for cash flow back to the investor once the wells are operational.     Mentioned in this episode: BrianSkrobonja.com SkrobonjaFinancial.com Common Sense Financial Podcast on YouTube  Common Sense Financial Podcast on Spotify Brian's article - From Tax-Deferred to Tax-Free: Navigating Taxes in Retirement   References for this episode: https://www.usdebtclock.org/ https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-provides-tax-inflation-adjustments-for-tax-year-2024 https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-provides-tax-inflation-adjustments-for-tax-year-2024 https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/retirement/planner/taxes.html https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/medicare/medicare-premiums.html#anchor5 https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/charitable-organizations/charitable-contribution-deductions https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/charitable-remainder-trusts https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/qualified-charitable-distributions-allow-eligible-ira-owners-up-to-100000-in-tax-free-gifts-to-charity https://www.investopedia.com/terms/i/intangible-drilling-costs.asp https://www.crfb.org/blogs/tax-break-down-intangible-drilling-costs     Securities offered only by duly registered individuals through Madison Avenue Securities, LLC.

Whether to buy a house or go to college are major financial decisions, but so is deciding when to take Social Security.It's true—tens of thousands of dollars, if not more, are on the line when deciding when to start Social Security benefits. Eddie Holland joins us today to help make the decision easier.Eddie Holland is a Senior Private Wealth Advisor and partner of Blue Trust in Greenville, South Carolina. He's also a CPA, a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), and a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®).A Common Recommendation—But Not a One-Size-Fits-AllWhen it comes to retirement, one of the most common questions people ask is: When should I start taking Social Security benefits? It's a vital decision that affects not only your income but also your long-term financial strategy and even your legacy.It's generally recommended to wait until at least full retirement age (66 or 67), but that doesn't mean it's the best choice for everyone. While delaying Social Security allows your benefits to grow up to 8% annually after full retirement age, thanks to what's called a delayed retirement credit, we must remember that each situation is unique.Six Key Factors to ConsiderHere are several factors that should guide your decision:1. Reduction vs. Growth of BenefitsTaking Social Security early reduces benefits. Delaying past full retirement age increases benefits. That tradeoff is foundational to your strategy.2. Cash Flow NeedsIf you retire before full retirement age and need income, you might begin drawing Social Security early to meet immediate needs. Some people may need to pay off debt or cover living expenses.3. Charitable Giving GoalsInterestingly, some retirees choose to take Social Security early in order to increase their generosity. Some people start taking benefits specifically to give more, either during retirement or as part of a legacy plan. 4. Health and LongevityYour health and family history play a significant role. If you don't expect to live well into your 80s or 90s, you might opt to draw earlier. But if you're healthy and expect a longer life, delaying could offer more value over time.5. Legacy and InheritanceYou can't leave your Social Security benefits to heirs, but you can leave your investment portfolio. This means some people opt to draw Social Security sooner in order to preserve their portfolio for giving or inheritance purposes.6. Tax PlanningSocial Security benefits can be taxable depending on your income. Some people delay benefits until a year they anticipate being in a lower tax bracket, strategically minimizing the tax impact.A Bonus Strategy: The “Mulligan”In some cases, there is a lesser-known but potentially powerful option: the withdrawal application.If you start taking Social Security before full retirement age and change your mind within the first 12 months, you can actually ‘undo' it.” You'll need to repay the benefits you received, but the Social Security Administration treats it as if you never started. You then have the option to restart at a later date, potentially at a higher benefit.This strategy can be especially useful during periods of market volatility when withdrawing from your investment portfolio might not be ideal.The Bottom LineThere's no universal right age at which to begin drawing Social Security. It really depends on your personal situation—your income needs, health, tax strategy, and goals for generosity and legacy.Wise financial planning starts with understanding your options and aligning those choices with your values and calling.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:How much is enough?

"So teach us to number our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom." - Psalm 90:12 If you're a few years from retirement and your savings aren't quite where you want them, you might feel like you've run out of time. But maybe you don't need a time machine to solve the problem. Today, Matt Bell joins us with some encouraging words about beefing up retirement savings.Matt Bell is the Managing Editor at Sound Mind Investing, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Surprising Power of Working a Little LongerIn 2018, a Stanford study called The Power of Working Longer made a compelling discovery: delaying retirement by just three to six months can have the same impact on retirement readiness as saving an additional 1% of income every year for 30 years.Yes, really.This is largely due to two factors:Higher Social Security Benefits – For every month you delay past full retirement age, your benefit increases by 2/3 of 1% (8% annually). Better Annuity Rates – The older you are when purchasing an annuity, the more monthly income you'll receive for the same investment.But there's a caveat: the study is based on specific assumptions that may not match your financial situation.What the Study Assumes—and Why It MattersThe Stanford study uses a fictional worker named “John” who:Started saving at age 36Saved 6% of income and received a 3% matchRetired at 66 and claimed Social Security immediatelyUsed all savings to buy an inflation-indexed annuityIn reality, your income, savings rate, Social Security timing, and withdrawal strategy may differ widely. Not to mention, indexed annuities like the one in the study are no longer widely available. So while the study provides encouragement, its specifics shouldn't be universally applied.If you can delay claiming Social Security, it can significantly boost your lifelong income. For example, waiting until age 70 instead of 66 could result in a monthly check that's 24% higher. You'd need to live roughly 12 more years to “break even,” but many retirees today are living well into their 80s and beyond.Social Security is essentially a government-backed, inflation-adjusted annuity, making it a powerful foundation for retirement income.More Benefits to Working LongerBeyond Social Security, staying employed offers additional financial and emotional perks:More Contributions – Additional working years allow you to save more and delay withdrawals.Shorter Retirement Span – Fewer retirement years mean your nest egg doesn't have to stretch as far.Health & Community – Work often provides routine, purpose, and social interaction—elements many retirees miss.Working longer isn't just a financial decision—it impacts your time, relationships, and expectations. If you've long looked forward to travel, family time, or volunteering, extending your career might feel like a loss. That's why it's essential to consider both the math and the meaning.Couples should prayerfully approach retirement planning together. Decisions about timing affect both spouses, especially when only one is working. Unequal expectations can lead to tension, so it's essential to:Talk openly about your hopes and concernsUnderstand your financial picture as a teamChoose unity over independence in decision-makingThis is one of the most crucial decisions you'll make as a couple.How Much Do You Really Need?You may have heard that you need 70–80% of your pre-retirement income. That's a good rule of thumb, but it's far better to run the numbers yourself. Some costs (like commuting or saving for retirement) may go down. Others (like healthcare or travel) may go up. The best approach? Create a post-retirement budget based on your unique goals and lifestyle.If you're behind on retirement savings, don't panic—and don't go it alone. Tools on the Social Security website can help you run scenarios based on your age and income. Brokerages like Fidelity or Schwab offer annuity estimators. Most importantly, seek wise counsel and pray through your decisions with your spouse.If you'd like to read the full article from Sound Mind Investing that we discussed during this episode, read Matt's article titled Retirement Preparedness—What a Difference a Little Time Can Make at SoundMindInvesting.com. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I now have the money from my tax return to pay my property taxes, due in two installments—one in May and one six months later. Should I go ahead and pay it all now since I have the funds, or is there a wise short-term investment I could consider in the meantime?Is there a reliable resource or organization that can provide information on charities that are requesting donations, such as groups like America Cares, CARE, or Mercy Ships?What are your thoughts on the cryptocurrency XRP?

Think you'll be in a lower tax bracket when you retire? Think again. In this episode of Safer Retirement Radio, Brian Decker and Brad Geddes, CFP(R) dismantle the myth and walk you through real-life tax planning strategies that can help you save hundreds of thousands—or even millions—in retirement taxes. From strategic Roth conversions to dynasty trusts, donor-advised funds, real estate tax planning, and more, this is a masterclass in building a smarter, safer financial future.

We all have those "to-do-lists" that have been slowly building over the years. The lists typically range from mowing the lawn, cleaning out the garage to finally preparing for retirement. Usually on that list there's a category specifically centered around our faith journey; pursuing a relationship with God and being obedient to what He asks you to do. Here's the big issue with any to-do-list: When is it going to happen?  Have you been feeling a tug on your heart or a sense that it's time to start working on the spiritual to-do-list? Don't wait! That stirring is often the gentle invitation of Jesus, calling you to step closer, to trust deeper, and to begin a life-changing journey with Him. Delaying that step might feel safer or more convenient, but the truth is, there's no perfect time—only the present moment. The peace, purpose, and transformation that come from walking with Jesus are available to you right now. Why wait another day to experience the fullness of what God has for you? Taking the next step in your faith might look different for everyone—maybe it's saying yes to Jesus for the first time, getting baptized, joining a community of believers, or simply recommitting your life to God. Whatever it is, don't let fear or uncertainty hold you back. Jesus isn't asking for perfection; He's inviting you into a relationship. Every step you take toward Him opens your life to more love, grace, and clarity than you've ever known. The journey begins with a simple “yes”—and that yes could change everything. To figure out what your next step might be, don't wait for when..take listen to what Jesus has to say about being ready.

Welcome to a special milestone episode of Retire with Ryan! In this 250th episode, we're digging into one of the most frequently asked topics by listeners: Social Security. I answer four real-life listener questions about Social Security benefits - covering issues such as survivor benefits after divorce, spousal and ex-spousal benefit eligibility, changes to the Windfall Elimination Provision and Government Pension Offset, and rules for collecting benefits based on a former spouse's record.  I'm breaking down complex Social Security rules in an easy-to-understand way and sharing practical advice for retirees and those planning their dream retirement.  You'll want to hear this episode if you're interested in... [0:00] Access your free copy of my e-book Fiduciary at www.retirewithryan.com  [5:34] Divorced spouses have options for Social Security benefits based on age, remarriage status, and whether claiming their own or an ex-spouse's benefits [6:58] Earnings above $23,400 (ages 62 to full retirement) reduce Social Security benefits by $1 for every $2 over the limit. After reaching full retirement age, the reduction is $1 for every $3 over $62,160.  [10:07] If your ex-spouse dies before you file, you can use a restricted application, but ex-spousal benefits don't earn delayed credits. Wait until age 70 for a higher personal benefit. [14:38] The ten-year requirement for an ex-surviving spouse currently still stands unless  [15:54] If you have recently divorced and your spouse hasn't claimed benefits, then you have to wait two years until you can begin collecting benefits from your ex-spouse Navigating Social Security: Answers to the Most Common Questions for Retirees and Divorced Spouses Survivor Benefits for Divorced Spouses A question from Andrea regarding her mother's eligibility for survivor benefits after her father and his second wife passed away highlights the intricacies many face. The Social Security Administration (SSA) does provide certain protections for divorced spouses, but eligibility hinges on specific criteria: Marriage Duration: To claim an ex-spousal survivor benefit, the marriage must have lasted at least 10 years. Remarriage Restrictions: If remarriage occurs after the age of 60 (or 50 if the survivor is disabled), the survivor can still claim benefits from the former spouse. Earlier remarriage generally directs benefits to the new spouse. Age Requirements: Survivors can claim benefits as early as age 60 (or 50 if disabled), but waiting until reaching “full retirement age” (typically 67) means collecting the full survivor benefit (100% of the deceased's benefit). Early claims result in reduced monthly amounts. Earnings Limits: If a recipient claims before full retirement age and continues working, their benefits may be reduced if their income exceeds the annual limit ($23,400 in 2025). Survivor benefits application can't be completed online, applicants must call or visit their local SSA office. Myths, Realities, and the Restricted Application of Ex-Spousal Benefits Stephanie, a divorced listener, asked if she could claim a spousal benefit and later switch to her own higher benefit. This is a common idea, but it is rarely permitted in practice today. No “Restricted Application” Unless Widowed: Generally, ex-spouses can only claim the higher of their benefit or up to 50% of their ex-spouse's benefit if the ex is alive. The “restricted application” (where you claim one benefit first and then switch later) is only available to widows or widowers, not to those whose ex-spouses are still living. Delaying for More: Your benefits do grow (8% per year between full retirement age and 70). However, survivor and spousal benefits don't accrue these “delayed retirement credits”; there's no advantage to waiting past full retirement age to claim them. Earnings Matter: Like survivor benefits, earnings above the income limits before full retirement age can result in reductions. The Social Security Fairness Act and New Opportunities Recent legislative updates, like the Social Security Fairness Act, have had a profound impact, especially for those affected by the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) or Government Pension Offset (GPO). Retirees such as teachers, firefighters, and some government workers previously saw reductions in their Social Security due to pensions received from non-Social Security-taxed jobs.  The Key Change is that WEP/GPO was repealed, and anyone affected can now claim full Social Security benefits. Most should already see retroactive and increased monthly payments. If you've not yet applied, check if you now qualify, the hurdles may have vanished! When Can You Claim on an Ex-Spouse's Record? Donna's inquiry emphasizes a lesser-known rule: If the divorce is recent and the ex-spouse hasn't claimed benefits, one must wait two years to claim on the ex's record unless the ex starts claiming earlier. For divorces older than two years, you can generally proceed without waiting. Those under full retirement age must ensure their income doesn't result in reduced payments. Social Security remains complex, especially during life events such as divorce, remarriage, death, or career changes. The rules can and do change, and representatives aren't infallible. If you suspect your situation is unique or you've been misinformed, it pays to contact the SSA or consult a trusted financial advisor.

In this episode, we have Mercedes Eckert today sharing the difference between God's timing and our excuses. Have you ever felt like you're telling yourself you're "waiting on God” but really, you were delaying out of fear, control, or perfectionism? Today, we're talking about what it really means to wait on God and how to discern whether it's the Holy Spirit saying “pause”… or fear saying “play it safe.” We're talking about: → What letting go actually looks like (even when it feels scary) → How fear can dress up like wisdom or preparation → Why obedience sometimes means moving before you feel "ready" If you've been circling the same mountain, talking yourself out of what God already told you to do, this one's for you. It's time to stop calling fear “faith” and start moving forward—imperfectly, but boldly.

If you've been waiting for a sign to start that dream, share your truth, or trust your voice—this is it. Today, Jessica is joined by bestselling author and speaker Brianna Wiest (The Mountain Is You, The Pivot Year, The Life That's Waiting) for a powerful conversation on quieting that inner critic, creating from your innate authenticity,  and following the pings that can set you up for radical transformation. This episode offers a behind-the-scenes look into Brianna's internal journey: how she rewired limiting beliefs, released the pressure to be seen a certain way, and began creating from a space of deep self-connection. Her story is not just about success—it's about stepping fully into authenticity and watching life meet you there. It's a powerful conversation that serves as a reminder that the thing you've always wanted to do is tapping you on the shoulder. It could be a career change, stepping through fear for the relationship of your dreams, or finally creating the thing that's been living rent-free in your head for years. There's something magical in the air here in 2025. The time to start taking those aligned actions is now. Find the Complete Show Notes Here -> https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: Join the Pathway MembershipReprogram your limiting beliefs and step into your most magnetic self! The Pathway Membership gives you unlimited access to all of our manifestation workshops—including How to Manifest, Unblocking Your Inner Child, Shadow, Love, Money, Rock Bottoms, Ruts, and Energetic Updates —plus 70+ self-hypnosis tracks designed to unlock your full potential.JOIN HEREUse code EXPANDED for 20% off first month  Get the latest from TBMLacy Launched a Substack! - By Candlelight - Join HereThe Authenticity Challenge Manifest the life you *actually* want.
