In this episode of Absolute Trust Talk, managing attorney Kirsten Howe shares an estate planning miss that has nothing to do with your documents — the literal, physical mess we tend to leave behind. Drawing on years of trust administration experience, Kirsten explains what really happens when one child is named trustee and inherits the job of emptying a home filled with decades of belongings: stalled home sales, frustrated siblings, and inheritances delayed by months. She also shares the story of a daughter trustee who nearly hauled a box of "trash" to the dumpster, only to find $2,500 in cash tucked inside. Her advice is refreshingly hands-on: start sorting through your own things now, one closet and one room at a time, so the people you love aren't left to do it for you. Time-stamped Show Notes: 0:00 Introduction 0:35 Kirsten introduces today's miss — this one isn't about what your documents say, it's about something you yourself can do, starting now. 1:05 The scenario she sees constantly: one child is named trustee, the family home is full of decades of belongings, and it can't be sold until it's cleared out — a job that typically lands on that one child. 1:55 A lose-lose bind: the other siblings often won't help, yet they'll complain if the trustee spends estate money to hire a professional to do it. 2:15 Why an inheritance can take six months instead of two — the first three months may go just to emptying the house. 3:05 Pro Tip: Start now, one closet and one room at a time: even Kirsten admits to three closets and three dressers of clothing she hasn't touched in years. 3:50 You don't have to do it alone — enlist a child or a friend, trade off helping at each other's homes, or hire a professional. 4:28 A cautionary tale: a daughter trustee, overwhelmed by boxes of old tax returns, bank statements, and decades-old books, nearly called for a dumpster — until she found $2,500 in cash in a box she assumed was trash. 5:40 The bottom line: take the job on now. Every bit you do eases the load on the child you've chosen as trustee, helps your kids get along after you're gone — and you might even enjoy revisiting old memories along the way.

Most people have questions about estate planning and elder law—but some questions feel too awkward, uncomfortable, or even embarrassing to ask out loud. In this episode of Aging Starts Now, host Dana Hentschel sits down with Johnson McGinnis Elder Care Law & Estate Planning associate attorney Josh Hunter to tackle the questions people often save for private consultations or ask only after everyone else has left the room. Together, they discuss: • Can I pay myself for serving as someone's attorney-in-fact? • Can I make gifts to myself under a Power of Attorney? • Can an executor pay themselves? • Does an executor have to follow the will exactly? • What happens when everyone agrees the will is unfair? • Must a trustee always follow the trust's instructions? • What if a trustee believes the trust is making a bad decision? • Can an attorney-in-fact hand the job off to someone else? • What if I don't want to serve as attorney-in-fact, trustee, or executor? • Can I be sued for serving in one of these roles? If you've ever been named in a Power of Attorney, trust, or will—or if you're considering who should serve in those positions—this episode provides practical answers to some of the most misunderstood responsibilities in estate planning.

If you're taking the time, and spending the money to dine out, you want to know what you're getting. Susan Quam, executive vice president of the WI Restaurant Association says information is power - even for restaurant menus. Quam tells Pam Jahnke that today diners are looking for "clean labels" on menus. The "buy local" mantra continues, and restaurants are complying. Quam says heat and spice continue to be popular flavor profiles that attract shoppers, but there's other taste bud tempting options becoming popular in the state too. Comfort foods and value menus are a magnet, and Quam says "smash burger" are showing up with many different options. Rain is back on the way to Wisconsin with some strong winds to boot. Stu Muck says today you might actually feel a chill with winds that could gust up to 35 mph. This cycle of weather continues for about the next 48 hours. I bet you never thought of an auctioneer as a partner in your estate plan. It happens. Ashly Huhn explains to Pam Jahnke how the Steffes Group many times gets involved in Section 1031 exchanges. This helps land owners primarily avoid heavy taxes by finding other properties to invest in. Paid for by Steffes Group. Monday was the "Day of Service" for approximately 700 Wisconsin FFA members in Madison before the 97th State FFA Convention.

Before they get to the business of insurance and estate planning, the two cover a lot of ground: the culture shock of living overseas, why the right has lost the moral high ground on insider trading, how cheap drones are quietly dismantling the aircraft carrier model, and the retention crisis brewing across the military. Then they bring it home to what matters most for the Remnant audience, the hard financial lessons that hit different when you are sitting in a war zone with an unfunded trust. If you have been putting off funding your trust or teaching your spouse how the system works, this episode is the wake-up call.Chapters:00:00 – Opening segment01:30 – Culture shock and the concept of being a "friar" 04:00 – Throwing elbows: comparing direct cultures abroad 06:30 – No personal boundaries and the bluntness spectrum 08:55 – What is the mission? 11:20 – The right's lost moral high ground on insider trading 14:40 – Prediction markets and the insider trading loophole 17:05 – Regret over the vote and the case against federal elections 18:50 – The Massie primary and the most expensive race in history 20:00 – The retention crisis: what the Guard and Reserves were meant to be 24:00 – No emotional stake: why this war won't swell the ranks 27:40 – How cheap drones defeated the aircraft carrier model 31:50 – They waived the vax mandate the moment they needed bodies 33:10 – Brian's decision36:50 – Prepare your spouse to be a widow: the unfunded trust problem 40:30 – Does your wife know how to take a policy loan? 43:05 – The 72-hour power-kill drill and survival planning 44:25 – Closing segmentKey Takeaways:An unfunded trust is the same as no trust. Brian admits his own trust is not properly funded, and now, deployed and off the grid, he cannot fix it. Funding the trust is the step everyone pushes to "next Friday" until life makes it impossible.Your life insurance living benefits only help your family if they know how to use it. Both Hans and Brian confess their wives have never been walked through the mechanics of taking a policy loan. Knowing what a policy loan is and knowing which buttons to click are two very different things.Prepare your spouse to be a widow before you think you need to. Nelson Nash did this late in life. The point stands at any age: your spouse should know where the documents are, how the system works, and what to do in an emergency, long before that emergency arrives.Run the drill while the stakes are low. Kill the main breaker for 72 hours and find the holes in your family's preparedness before a real crisis exposes them. The same logic applies financially: have your spouse take the next policy loan so the knowledge is real, not theoretical.

New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Attorney Whitney Knox Lee. Explains practical estate‑planning strategies—wills, trusts, powers of attorney—and how entrepreneurs, families, and especially parents of disabled children can protect assets, avoid costly probate, and maintain eligibility for critical benefits. The conversation also touches on integrating insurance with estate planning, small‑business contingency planning, and Lee’s personal mission and background in civil rights work. Purpose of the Interview Educate listeners on estate planning as a wealth‑preservation strategy (not just documents)—to reduce court costs, taxes, and confusion for families. Clarify the differences and roles of wills, trusts, and powers of attorney, including when each is appropriate and how they work together.] Highlight special considerations for entrepreneurs and families with disabled children or aging relatives, including insurance, operating agreements, and special‑needs planning. Share Lee’s values and practice approach, including culturally responsive service and sustainable advocacy rooted in prior civil‑rights work. Key Takeaways 1) Wills vs. Trusts vs. Powers of Attorney A will is not the plan—it’s just one piece and still goes through probate, which can be slow and expensive; think of a will as a “letter to the judge.] Revocable living trusts can help families bypass probate, reduce delays, and retain more control over how assets are managed after death. Powers of attorney (financial and health) are essential for incapacity scenarios; even 18‑year‑olds heading to college should have them so parents can access information if needed. 2) Why Insurance Belongs in the Plan Life insurance can protect the family’s ability to keep the home by paying off a remaining mortgage or covering living expenses—turning an asset into a sustainable legacy rather than a burden. For entrepreneurs, key‑person insurance can replace income when the owner can’t work, keeping the business afloat. 3) Minimizing Probate Costs and Taxes Probate involves court filings and legal fees; in some states fees scale with estate size (example discussed: percentage‑based fees in other jurisdictions), which can significantly erode wealth passed to heirs. Proper planning reduces those leakages. 4) Special‑Needs and Elder Planning Parents of children on need‑based benefits (e.g., Medicaid) must avoid transfers that jeopardize eligibility; the right trust structures preserve benefits while providing support. Elder law planning anticipates long‑term care costs (nursing home, assisted living, in‑home care) so families don’t have to deplete assets later. 5) Business Continuity for Owners Establish operating agreements and buy‑sell agreements that spell out who runs the business if the principal is incapacitated; pair with business powers of attorney. 6) Values, Audience, and Access Lee intentionally centers Black and Brown women and their families, grounding services in community uplift and transparent referrals to trusted financial pros (no paid referral arrangements). Contact approach: 15‑minute intake, then a four‑meeting process (legacy planning → design → review → signing). Notable Quotes (for pull‑quotes & captions) “Think of a will as a letter to the judge… a will still has to go through probate court. “A trust allows families to bypass probate altogether so they aren’t paying legal fees or leaving things to people who want to challenge the will. “Life insurance is a huge tool—it can help the family pay off the mortgage so they can keep the home and the equity.” “Estate planning is a strategy—not just documents.” “Even 18‑year‑olds should have powers of attorney—parents can’t just call doctors once kids are legal adults.” “I stay in my lane—I’m an attorney. I work closely with trusted financial professionals and make non‑compensated referrals.” “For special‑needs planning, don’t jeopardize need‑based benefits—use the right trust so support continues. “I want to build a sustainable practice that lets me serve my community and rest well, aligned with my family and values.” Quick Action Items (for listeners inspired by the episode) Draft or update POAs (financial and health) for every adult in the household, including college‑age children. Evaluate whether a revocable living trust makes sense to avoid probate and retain post‑death control. For business owners: review operating agreement / buy‑sell, add key‑person insurance, and create a business POA. Families with special‑needs dependents: consult on special‑needs trusts to protect benefits. #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Notable Quotes (for pull‑quotes & captions) “Think of a will as a letter to the judge… a will still has to go through probate court. “A trust allows families to bypass probate altogether so they aren’t paying legal fees or leaving things to people who want to challenge the will. “Life insurance is a huge tool—it can help the family pay off the mortgage so they can keep the home and the equity.” “Estate planning is a strategy—not just documents.” “Even 18‑year‑olds should have powers of attorney—parents can’t just call doctors once kids are legal adults.” “I stay in my lane—I’m an attorney. I work closely with trusted financial professionals and make non‑compensated referrals.” “For special‑needs planning, don’t jeopardize need‑based benefits—use the right trust so support continues. “I want to build a sustainable practice that lets me serve my community and rest well, aligned with my family and values.” Quick Action Items (for listeners inspired by the episode) Draft or update POAs (financial and health) for every adult in the household, including college‑age children. Evaluate whether a revocable living trust makes sense to avoid probate and retain post‑death control. For business owners: review operating agreement / buy‑sell, add key‑person insurance, and create a business POA. Families with special‑needs dependents: consult on special‑needs trusts to protect benefits. #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Estate planning used to be relatively straightforward: create a will, establish a trust if appropriate, and make sure your beneficiaries were named correctly. Today, it's much more complicated. We talk about how modern estate planning has evolved beyond traditional documents and why many families may have planning gaps they don't realize exist. Common reasons estate plans become outdated, the growing importance of digital assets, and the challenges families can face when trying to access online accounts, digital photos, cloud storage, payment apps, and other assets that didn't exist when many estate plans were originally created. We also discuss the difference between legal authority and practical access, why estate planning should be reviewed periodically, and simple steps families can take to reduce confusion and stress for loved ones.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com ————————————————————— Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

Marriage comes with a lot of assumptions. Your spouse will inherit everything. They can make decisions for you if something happens. The house automatically stays in the family. Sounds straightforward, right? Not so fast. In this episode, Stacy sits down with estate planning attorney Lauren Klein to unpack six of the biggest legal myths that catch families, widows, and even financially savvy couples off guard. From beneficiary designations that override your will to retirement accounts, powers of attorney, blended family complications, and inheritance planning, this conversation highlights why good intentions alone aren't enough. You'll hear them discuss: Why being married doesn't automatically guarantee your spouse will inherit your assets, and how beneficiary designations can override even the most carefully drafted estate plan The critical role powers of attorney and healthcare directives play, and why spouses often can't make financial or medical decisions without the proper documents in place Common mistakes widows make with retirement accounts, Social Security benefits, and outdated beneficiary forms that can lead to unnecessary delays, costs, and lost opportunities How the way your home is titled can dramatically impact what happens after a spouse passes away, especially in blended family situations Real-life examples of inheritance disputes that tore families apart, and the planning strategies that could have prevented them Why trusts aren't just for the ultra-wealthy and how they can help protect children from divorce, lawsuits, creditors, and poor financial decisions A surprisingly creative estate planning strategy that encourages children to build successful careers while still preserving family wealth for future generations Resources Lauren Klein on Flourish Law Group | Flourish Law Group LinkedIn | Flourish Law Group Instagram | Lauren Klein on Facebook | Lauren Klein on Instagram | Lauren Klein on LinkedIn Stacy Francis on LinkedIn | X(Twitter) | Email FrancisFinancial.com ''Because I love you'' - Legacy Planning Companion - Free Downloadable Guide Reach out to receive a complimentary consultation!

It was probate, paperwork, debt, uncertainty, and a thousand questions Adrienne never expected to answer while trying to keep her family afloat.In this deeply personal episode, Adrienne shares what the past few months have really looked like: widow brain, decision fatigue, financial uncertainty, and the guilt and shame that can come with money struggles. If you've ever lost someone, worried about what would happen if you did, or found yourself responsible for things you never planned to manage, this conversation is for you.Send us Fan MailFor those who have reached out asking how to support Adrienne and her family during this time, click here to donate.

What happens to your money, your assets, and even your digital life if you don't have children to step in? Jeremiah Bates and Alex Lundgren spend the first hour tackling one of the fastest-growing estate planning challenges in America: planning for incapacity and inheritance when there are no children or obvious heirs. The discussion covers power of attorney decisions, trustees, elder abuse risks, professional fiduciaries, pet trusts, digital assets, online accounts, passwords, and why failing to plan can leave critical decisions in the hands of the court. The second hour shifts to a major market story: SpaceX's highly anticipated IPO. Jeremiah and Alex break down how IPOs actually work, why many investors misunderstand them, the risks of buying into market hype, and how SpaceX could eventually impact index investors and retirement accounts through future index inclusion. The final hour focuses on practical planning decisions, including pension maximization strategies, large income windfalls from business sales and acquisitions, Medicare and tax planning considerations, and tax gain harvesting opportunities for investors sitting on significant unrealized gains.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Hosts: Jeremiah Bates & Alex Lundgren ————— Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Lynn Richardson. Renowned financial literacy expert, educator, and entrepreneur—joins Rushion McDonald for a wide-ranging, practical conversation about money mindset, financial mistakes, entrepreneurship, tax strategy, multiple streams of income, and estate planning. Blending personal storytelling with direct instruction, Dr. Lynn breaks down why many people struggle financially despite earning good money, and why education, planning, and conversation—not income alone—are the keys to wealth-building, particularly within the Black community. Her tone is candid, no‑nonsense, and empowering—earning her self-described reputation as the “Madea of money.” Purpose of the Interview The interview is designed to: Normalize “money-making conversations” in households, businesses, and communities Challenge myths about income, success, and financial security Educate listeners on practical, legal strategies for budgeting, taxes, business structure, and generational wealth Encourage financial transparency, planning, and action, especially among entrepreneurs and families Shift mindset from survival and spending to strategy and stewardship At its core, the interview reinforces that financial empowerment starts with education and honest dialogue—not luck, prayer alone, or higher income. Key Takeaways 1. More Money Does Not Fix Money Problems Dr. Lynn explains that earning more without changing behavior and mindset only magnifies financial issues. She shares her own journey of making tens of thousands per month while still living paycheck-to-Monday. Core lesson: Income is not the problem—money management is. 2. Silence and Shame Keep People Financially Stuck Many people avoid addressing financial trouble due to pride, fear, or cultural conditioning (“don’t air dirty laundry”). Dr. Lynn emphasizes that the first step to financial recovery is speaking up and facing reality. Core lesson:Financial healing begins with honesty—not hiding. 3. Money Is Predictable Math, Not Mystery Dr. Lynn demystifies money as a simple equation: if expenses exceed income, the outcome is guaranteed. Emotional avoidance turns math into bondage. Core lesson: “Money is more predictable than anything—one plus one always equals two.” 4. Children Are Financial Assets When Taught Properly She explains a powerful tax strategy: hiring children (or relatives) in a home-based business and paying them up to the IRS threshold tax-free, while teaching them skills and entrepreneurship. Core lesson:Children shouldn’t just consume money—they can learn how it works. 5. Most Entrepreneurs Are Undereducated About Business Dr. Lynn criticizes the rise of “janky businesses”—LLCs without proper structure, records, or protections—leaving owners exposed legally and financially. Core lesson:Talent without business education leads to unnecessary risk. 6. One Stream of Income Is Dangerous She strongly reinforces that relying on a single income source is no longer viable for financial security. Wealth requires multiple, independent income streams. Core lesson:Job security is not wealth security. 7. Estate Planning Is a Responsibility, Not a Luxury Dr. Lynn reframes estate planning as a life and legacy plan, not something only for the wealthy. Without a plan, the government decides what happens to your assets. Core lesson:Everyone has an estate—the question is who controls it. Notable Quotes “Money making conversations isn’t just a title—it’s a movement and a lifestyle.” “Rich people stay rich because they act poor. Poor people stay poor because they act rich.” “The first adjustment anybody needs to make is to open their mouth and talk to someone.” “One stream of income is hazardous to your wealth.” “If you don’t have an estate plan, the government has one for you.” “You spend the money and it’s gone. I spend the money and I get it back—legally.” Conclusion This interview positions Dr. Lynn Richardson as both a financial truth-teller and a practical strategist. Her message is clear: Wealth is built through education, planning, structure, and conversation Financial mistakes are common—but avoidable Generational wealth requires intentional action, not silence or hope The episode reinforces Money Making Conversations Masterclass as a platform not just for inspiration—but for execution and accountability. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Most people think estate planning is simply deciding who gets their assets after they die. In reality, a complete estate plan answers two very different questions: who can help if you're still alive but unable to manage your affairs, and who takes over after you're gone. In this episode, Nick breaks down the key documents that apply during life versus after death and provides a practical roadmap to understanding the complete estate planning picture. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode:

The conversation also touches on integrating insurance with estate planning, small‑business contingency planning, and Lee’s personal mission and background in civil rights work. Purpose of the Interview Educate listeners on estate planning as a wealth‑preservation strategy (not just documents)—to reduce court costs, taxes, and confusion for families. Clarify the differences and roles of wills, trusts, and powers of attorney, including when each is appropriate and how they work together.] Highlight special considerations for entrepreneurs and families with disabled children or aging relatives, including insurance, operating agreements, and special‑needs planning. Share Lee’s values and practice approach, including culturally responsive service and sustainable advocacy rooted in prior civil‑rights work. Key Takeaways 1) Wills vs. Trusts vs. Powers of Attorney A will is not the plan—it’s just one piece and still goes through probate, which can be slow and expensive; think of a will as a “letter to the judge.] Revocable living trusts can help families bypass probate, reduce delays, and retain more control over how assets are managed after death. Powers of attorney (financial and health) are essential for incapacity scenarios; even 18‑year‑olds heading to college should have them so parents can access information if needed. 2) Why Insurance Belongs in the Plan Life insurance can protect the family’s ability to keep the home by paying off a remaining mortgage or covering living expenses—turning an asset into a sustainable legacy rather than a burden. For entrepreneurs, key‑person insurance can replace income when the owner can’t work, keeping the business afloat. 3) Minimizing Probate Costs and Taxes Probate involves court filings and legal fees; in some states fees scale with estate size (example discussed: percentage‑based fees in other jurisdictions), which can significantly erode wealth passed to heirs. Proper planning reduces those leakages. 4) Special‑Needs and Elder Planning Parents of children on need‑based benefits (e.g., Medicaid) must avoid transfers that jeopardize eligibility; the right trust structures preserve benefits while providing support. Elder law planning anticipates long‑term care costs (nursing home, assisted living, in‑home care) so families don’t have to deplete assets later. 5) Business Continuity for Owners Establish operating agreements and buy‑sell agreements that spell out who runs the business if the principal is incapacitated; pair with business powers of attorney. 6) Values, Audience, and Access Lee intentionally centers Black and Brown women and their families, grounding services in community uplift and transparent referrals to trusted financial pros (no paid referral arrangements). Contact approach: 15‑minute intake, then a four‑meeting process (legacy planning → design → review → signing). Notable Quotes (for pull‑quotes & captions) “Think of a will as a letter to the judge… a will still has to go through probate court. “A trust allows families to bypass probate altogether so they aren’t paying legal fees or leaving things to people who want to challenge the will. “Life insurance is a huge tool—it can help the family pay off the mortgage so they can keep the home and the equity.” “Estate planning is a strategy—not just documents.” “Even 18‑year‑olds should have powers of attorney—parents can’t just call doctors once kids are legal adults.” “I stay in my lane—I’m an attorney. I work closely with trusted financial professionals and make non‑compensated referrals.” “For special‑needs planning, don’t jeopardize need‑based benefits—use the right trust so support continues. “I want to build a sustainable practice that lets me serve my community and rest well, aligned with my family and values.” Quick Action Items (for listeners inspired by the episode) Draft or update POAs (financial and health) for every adult in the household, including college‑age children. Evaluate whether a revocable living trust makes sense to avoid probate and retain post‑death control. For business owners: review operating agreement / buy‑sell, add key‑person insurance, and create a business POA. Families with special‑needs dependents: consult on special‑needs trusts to protect benefits. #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Don and Tom tackle some of the most common retirement planning mistakes, with a particular focus on taxes and the danger of becoming overly obsessed with them. They discuss taxable Social Security benefits, the importance of diversifying across account types, Roth conversion considerations, tax-loss harvesting, and why most retirement decisions ultimately fall into the category of “it depends.” They also answer a listener question about navigating poor 403(b) plan options and the advantages of a 457 plan for educators. Finally, they dive deep into a thoughtful challenge from a listener regarding Avantis and Dimensional factor funds versus traditional Vanguard index funds, examining the evidence for factor tilts, the role of risk premiums, costs, and whether higher expected returns justify modestly higher expense ratios.0:05 Retirement planning mistakes, taxes, retirement income, financial independence, retirement readiness1:58 Tax obsession, retirement taxes, income planning, financial priorities, wealth management2:43 Social Security taxation, taxable benefits, retirement income, Social Security myths, tax planning5:14 Tax diversification, traditional 401(k), Roth accounts, brokerage accounts, retirement savings7:57 Roth IRA, young investors, compound growth, retirement investing, tax-free income9:11 Tax-loss harvesting, brokerage accounts, capital gains, tax strategy, investment management10:03 Roth conversions, Medicare IRMAA, retirement taxes, financial planning, tax efficiency12:03 Inherited IRAs, heirs, estate planning, retirement accounts, legacy planning13:35 403(b) plans, 457 plans, retirement savings, school employees, listener question15:29 403(b) Wise, 457B Wiser, educator retirement plans, high fees, retirement options18:35 Roth IRA investing, small-cap funds, emerging markets, diversification, asset allocation19:38 Avantis funds, Dimensional funds, Vanguard funds, factor investing, index investing23:55 Fama-French research, small-value premium, indexing, active management, factor premiums26:08 Rules-based investing, passive investing, factor tilts, portfolio construction, diversification27:02 Small-cap value investing, fund performance, index comparisons, advisor value, investment returns30:25 International small value, emerging markets, factor premiums, diversification, expected returns32:55 Academic investing research, Nobel Prize economics, risk premiums, value investing, factor investing35:18 Portfolio construction, asset allocation, diversification, retirement planning, investment strategy36:16 Free portfolio review, financial advice, portfolio allocation, retirement readiness, fiduciary planningQuestions?
