WHAT THE 2026 CONTRIBUTION LIMITS MEAN FOR YOU FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS Lawrence M. Post | CPA, MST, CFP®, CIMA® Senior Tax & Planning Advisor, BWFA and Tyler Kluge | CFP®, ChFEB℠, CPWA®, CDFA®, CEPS,  Financial Planner, BWFA About This Episode Contribution limits for retirement accounts change periodically and can impact how much you are able to save. This episode explains the newly finalized retirement plan contribution limits for 2026 and why understanding these updates can help you make informed decisions about saving, planning, and taking advantage of available opportunities. Full Description Each year, retirement plan contribution limits are reviewed and adjusted, reflecting changes in economic conditions and cost-of-living considerations. These updates can affect how much individuals and families are able to contribute to retirement accounts and influence overall planning strategies. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, the discussion focuses on the retirement plan contribution limits finalized for 2026. Listeners will learn what has changed, which accounts are impacted, and why these updates matter when planning for long-term financial goals. The episode explains how contribution limits apply to common retirement vehicles and how increases may create new opportunities to save more efficiently. Understanding these limits is especially important for those nearing retirement, individuals trying to maximize savings, or anyone adjusting their financial plan for the coming year. The conversation also highlights why contribution limits should be viewed as part of a broader strategy rather than in isolation. Saving more is helpful, but aligning contributions with income, tax considerations, and future goals is equally important. Planning ahead allows individuals to take advantage of changes without disrupting cash flow or other priorities. Listeners will gain perspective on how staying informed about contribution limits supports proactive planning. Rather than reacting at tax time, understanding updates early allows for more intentional decisions throughout the year. At BWFA, we help clients evaluate how annual changes like contribution limits fit into their overall financial plans. This episode provides timely insight for anyone looking to stay informed and make thoughtful choices as they plan for 2026 and beyond.

MONEY MISTAKES THAT CAN HURT YOU IN YOUR 30S AND 40S FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS Lawrence M. Post | CPA, MST, CFP®, CIMA® Senior Tax & Planning Advisor, BWFA and Tyler Kluge | CFP®, ChFEB℠, CPWA®, CDFA®, CEPS,  Financial Planner, BWFA About This Episode HOW TO DECIDE BETWEEN DEBT AND INVESTING Full Description Your 30s and 40s are often some of the busiest and most financially complex years of life. Careers are advancing, families may be growing, and financial responsibilities tend to increase. During this time, small missteps can quietly compound into larger challenges later on. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, the discussion focuses on common money mistakes people make in their 30s and 40s. Listeners will learn how competing priorities such as housing, childcare, education costs, and lifestyle choices can strain finances if not managed intentionally. The conversation highlights how delaying planning can be one of the most costly mistakes. Waiting to save, invest, or address protection needs often reduces flexibility later. This episode explains why building good habits earlier in these decades can make future decisions easier and less stressful. Another key theme is balance. Overextending on lifestyle upgrades, underestimating long-term goals, or neglecting foundational planning can all slow progress. The discussion emphasizes the importance of aligning spending with values and maintaining clarity around priorities. Listeners will also hear why financial mistakes during these years are common and understandable. Life moves quickly, and many decisions are made without full information. The goal is not perfection, but awareness. Recognizing potential pitfalls allows individuals to course-correct before long-term consequences set in. At BWFA, we help individuals and families navigate these pivotal years with thoughtful planning and guidance. This episode offers practical insight to help listeners make more informed financial decisions during their 30s and 40s.

RELOCATING TOO QUICKLY IN RETIREMENT FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS Lawrence M. Post | CPA, MST, CFP®, CIMA® Senior Tax & Planning Advisor, BWFA and Tyler Kluge | CFP®, ChFEB℠, CPWA®, CDFA®, CEPS,  Financial Planner, BWFA About This Episode Retirement withdrawals are more complex than many expect. Learn what often gets overlooked when turning savings into income. Full Description Saving for retirement is only part of the journey. Turning those savings into a reliable income requires careful planning and ongoing decision-making. Many retirees are surprised by how complex withdrawal strategies can be once retirement begins. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, the discussion focuses on what people are often not told about retirement withdrawal strategies. Listeners will learn why the order, timing, and source of withdrawals can significantly affect long-term outcomes. The episode explores how taxes, required distributions, and market conditions all influence retirement income planning. Without a clear strategy, withdrawals can unintentionally increase tax exposure or shorten the lifespan of a portfolio. The conversation also highlights why flexibility matters. Retirement plans are not static, and withdrawal strategies should evolve as circumstances change. Health needs, spending patterns, and market performance all play a role in shaping sustainable income. Listeners will gain insight into why a coordinated approach is essential. Withdrawal decisions should align with overall financial goals, not be made in isolation. This episode emphasizes the importance of planning and revisiting strategies regularly. At BWFA, we help retirees and pre-retirees build income strategies designed to support long-term confidence and adaptability. This episode provides a valuable perspective for anyone approaching or living in retirement. To learn more about retirement income planning, visit BWFA's Financial Planning Services.

ARE YOU BEING TOO SAFE WITH YOUR MONEY? FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS Lawrence M. Post | CPA, MST, CFP®, CIMA® Senior Tax & Planning Advisor, BWFA and Tyler Kluge | CFP®, ChFEB℠, CPWA®, CDFA®, CEPS,  Financial Planner, BWFA About This Episode Relocating in retirement can be exciting, but moving without proper research can turn into a costly mistake. In this episode, BWFA's Sandy Hornor, Jr. and Tyler Kluge explain the risks of relocating too quickly—and how to make sure your next move supports both your lifestyle and your financial goals. Full Description Being cautious with money is often viewed as a strength. Avoiding risk, holding extra cash, and prioritizing security can provide peace of mind. However, being too conservative for too long can create challenges that are not always obvious at first. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, the discussion explores the hidden risks of being overly conservative with your finances. Listeners will learn how excessive caution can reduce growth potential and make it harder to keep pace with long-term goals. The episode explains how inflation, time, and opportunity cost can quietly erode purchasing power when money remains underutilized. While conservative strategies may feel safe in the short term, they can limit flexibility and options later in life. The conversation also emphasizes that risk is not one-size-fits-all. What feels appropriate at one stage of life may no longer support future needs. Understanding how risk tolerance, time horizon, and goals interact is critical when evaluating financial decisions. Listeners will gain insight into how thoughtful adjustments can improve balance without abandoning stability. Being strategic does not mean taking unnecessary risks. It means aligning decisions with long-term objectives while remaining adaptable as circumstances change. At BWFA, we help individuals and families strike the right balance between caution and opportunity. This episode encourages listeners to reassess whether their current approach supports where they want to go.

HOW TO DECIDE BETWEEN DEBT AND INVESTING FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS Lawrence M. Post | CPA, MST, CFP®, CIMA® Senior Tax & Planning Advisor, BWFA and Tyler Kluge | CFP®, ChFEB℠, CPWA®, CDFA®, CEPS,  Financial Planner, BWFA About This Episode Deciding whether to pay off debt or invest can feel overwhelming. Learn how to weigh your options and make choices that support long-term goals. Full Description One of the most common financial questions people face is whether they should focus on paying off debt or investing for the future. Both options can play an important role in a healthy financial plan, but the right answer is rarely the same for everyone. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, the discussion explores how to evaluate the decision to pay down debt versus investing. Listeners will learn why interest rates, cash flow, and personal goals all matter when deciding where to direct their money. The conversation explains that not all debt is created equal. High-interest consumer debt can place ongoing pressure on finances, while lower-interest debt may allow room for investing at the same time. This episode helps listeners understand how different types of debt fit into a broader financial strategy. The episode also highlights the emotional side of this decision. Paying off debt can provide peace of mind, while investing supports long-term growth. Balancing these priorities often requires tradeoffs. Rather than viewing the choice as all or nothing, the discussion encourages a more flexible approach that considers both progress and stability. Listeners will gain insight into how thoughtful planning can help avoid extremes. Making consistent, informed decisions over time often leads to better outcomes than reacting based on short-term emotions or headlines. At BWFA, we help individuals and families align debt management and investing within a comprehensive plan. This episode offers guidance to help you make confident decisions that fit your unique financial situation.

WHY A HIGH INCOME DOESN'T GUARANTEE WEALTH FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS Lawrence M. Post | CPA, MST, CFP®, CIMA® Senior Tax & Planning Advisor, BWFA and Tyler Kluge | CFP®, ChFEB℠, CPWA®, CDFA®, CEPS,  Financial Planner, BWFA About This Episode Earning more money does not always lead to financial security. Learn why income alone is not enough to build lasting wealth. Full Description Many people assume that a high income automatically leads to wealth. In reality, income is only one part of the financial picture. Without intentional planning, even strong earnings can fail to translate into long-term security. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, the discussion explores why income alone does not guarantee wealth. Listeners will learn how spending habits, lifestyle choices, taxes, and planning decisions often have a greater impact on financial outcomes than salary alone. The episode highlights common patterns seen among high earners who struggle to build wealth. Lifestyle inflation, lack of savings discipline, and uncoordinated financial decisions can quietly erode progress over time. The conversation explains how these issues can affect professionals at every income level. Listeners will also gain insight into what truly supports wealth building. Consistent saving, intentional spending, thoughtful investing, and long term planning all work together to create sustainable financial strength. Wealth is built through decisions made over time, not simply through higher paychecks. Rather than focusing on earning more, this episode encourages listeners to focus on making smarter choices with what they already earn. Understanding where money goes, aligning spending with goals, and creating a structured plan can make a meaningful difference. At BWFA, we work with individuals and families to help turn income into lasting opportunity. This episode offers a practical reminder that wealth is about behavior, planning, and consistency.

HOW TO PREPARE FINANCIALLY FOR THE UNEXPECTED (WITHOUT OBSESSING) FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS Lawrence M. Post | CPA, MST, CFP®, CIMA® Senior Tax & Planning Advisor, BWFA and Tyler Kluge | CFP®, ChFEB℠, CPWA®, CDFA®, CEPS,  Financial Planner, BWFA About This Episode Life is unpredictable, but financial planning does not have to be stressful. Learn how to prepare for the unexpected without constant worry. Full Description Unexpected events are a part of life. Job changes, health issues, family needs, and economic shifts can all impact financial stability. While it is impossible to plan for every outcome, being financially prepared can help reduce stress and improve confidence when challenges arise. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, the discussion focuses on how to prepare financially for the unexpected without becoming overwhelmed or overly cautious. The conversation emphasizes balance, showing how thoughtful planning can create flexibility without requiring constant monitoring or fear-driven decisions. Listeners will learn why preparation is about structure rather than prediction. Establishing emergency savings, maintaining appropriate insurance coverage, and understanding cash flow are foundational steps that help absorb life's surprises. This episode also explores how over-preparing can be just as harmful as under-preparing, particularly when excessive conservatism limits long-term growth or opportunity. The discussion highlights the importance of clarity. Knowing what resources are available and how they fit into an overall financial plan allows individuals to respond thoughtfully rather than react emotionally. Preparation does not mean obsessing over worst-case scenarios. It means building a plan that can adapt as circumstances change. Rather than offering quick fixes or rigid rules, this episode encourages a calm, intentional approach to financial readiness. When preparation is aligned with goals and values, it becomes a source of confidence rather than anxiety. At BWFA, we help clients design financial plans that are resilient, flexible, and realistic. Preparing for the unexpected is not about fear. It is about creating a plan that supports you through whatever life brings.

GETTING THE MOST OUT OF A MARYLAND 529 FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS with Sandy Hornor | CEPS Managing Director, Wealth Management & Executive Manager, BWFA and Tyler Kluge | CFP®, ChFEB℠, CPWA®, CDFA®, CEPS,  Financial Planner, BWFA About This Episode Maryland 529 plans offer tax advantages for families saving for education. Learn how these plans work and how they fit into college planning. Full Description Saving for college can feel overwhelming, especially as education costs continue to rise. Maryland families have access to a powerful tool that can help make this goal more manageable: the Maryland 529 college savings plan. Understanding how these plans work is an important step in building an effective education funding strategy. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, Larry and Tyler discuss how Maryland 529 plans function and why they are commonly used for college savings. They explain the basic structure of a 529 plan, including how contributions grow over time and how funds can be used for qualified education expenses. The conversation also highlights the specific benefits available to Maryland residents. State tax deductions, flexibility in contribution amounts, and control over the account all play a role in making Maryland 529 plans appealing for families at different stages of planning. Larry and Tyler also discuss how these plans can be coordinated with other education funding options. Listeners will learn why it is important to align college savings with broader financial goals. Saving for education should not come at the expense of retirement planning or overall financial stability. This episode emphasizes the value of balance and thoughtful prioritization when planning for future expenses. Rather than viewing a 529 plan as a standalone solution, Larry and Tyler encourage families to integrate college savings into a comprehensive financial plan. This approach helps ensure education goals are supported while maintaining long-term flexibility.

In this episode, Libby shares an unpopular but critical perspective on how financial advisors should think about “future potential” clients. She explains why treating clients based on who they might become leads to burnout, resentment, and misaligned service models—and how this quiet mistake often causes your best clients to subsidize everyone else

Host Cary Sinnett is joined by Dr. Brianne Smith, a PFP practitioner, CPA firm owner, and accounting professor at Auburn University, for a timely conversation on artificial intelligence in financial planning. Artificial intelligence is moving quickly into financial planning workflows, but not all "AI" tools are created equal. For CPA financial planners, the opportunity is significant: increased efficiency, deeper insights, and more client-centered communication. The risk lies in adopting technology without fully understanding what it does, how it works, and where human judgment must remain firmly in place. Explore with Dr. Brianne Smith how CPA financial planners can separate AI hype from real innovation and adopt emerging tools responsibly, with a clear focus on supervision, workflow integration, and maintaining client trust. What You'll Learn How to distinguish true AI from traditional automation and why that difference matters in practice Real-world examples of how AI is already enhancing document review, meeting documentation, and investment analysis How to supervise AI outputs responsibly while maintaining professional judgment and client trust How role mapping can help identify where AI and automation can free planners to focus on higher-value client work How AI can support both practice scalability and the next generation of CPA financial planners AICPA Resources: AICPA Personal Financial Planning Symposium Video: AI and Technology Updates for Financial Planning Practices Center: AI Tax Resource Learning: The AI Advantage: Leveraging AI for Efficiency and Impact Center: Tax Research This episode is brought to you by the AICPA's Personal Financial Planning Section, the premier provider of information, tools, advocacy, and guidance for professionals who specialize in providing tax, estate, retirement, risk management and investment planning advice.

What should a great financial planning experience actually look like? For many investors, “financial planning” is reduced to product selection, performance chasing, or a one-time retirement projection that never gets revisited. In reality, a high-quality financial planning experience is far more comprehensive — and far more valuable. Richard Rosso breaks down the essential elements of effective financial planning. True financial planning is not about predicting markets or selling products. It is about building a durable framework that helps investors make better decisions through market cycles, life changes, and economic uncertainty. Whether you are working with an advisor or managing your finances independently, understanding what a great planning experience looks like can help you avoid costly mistakes and set more realistic expectations for long-term success. 0:00 - INTRO 0:20 - Financial Planning, PBS, & Benny Hill 4:08 - Comparisons of Big Box Brokerages' Financial Plans 7:52 - Financial Goals are Being Re-shuffled 12:54 - Financial Planners' Meaningless Titles 15:32 - Financial Advisors as Holistic Partners 23:00 - Maintaining Behavioral Balance 27:32 - Bad Gift-giving & Financial Swiffers 32:50 - Accumulation & De-cumulation Expertise Hosted by RIA Advisors Director of Financial Planning, Richard Rosso, CFP Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhVoQc7adgU&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1 ------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Markets Oversold After Key Support Break," is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ITeHTYtt1Q&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- REGISTER for our 2026 Economic Summit, "The Future of Digital Assets, Artificial Intelligence, and Investing:" https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2026-ria-economic-summit-tickets-1765951641899?aff=oddtdtcreator ------- Watch our previous show, "Is the 60/40 Portfolio Dead?

Latino-owned businesses are one of the fastest-growing segments of the U.S. economy, yet many owners still struggle when it's time to sell or transition. Gaps in financial records, limited access to the right advisors, and the absence of an exit plan often lead owners to shut down or hand over their businesses without capturing real value.

In this episode of The Wealthy Practitioner Podcast, Steph sits down with Certified Financial Planner Meera Shireen for a powerful conversation about money, nervous system safety, and what it actually means to feel secure with your finances as your business grows. While Meera brings over a decade of financial planning experience, this conversation goes far beyond traditional money advice. Together, they unpack why so many entrepreneurs fear wealth, how childhood patterns shape your financial identity, and why nervous system regulation is one of the most overlooked components of building long-term wealth. Meera shares her journey from studying economics to entering the financial planning world, launching her own firm, and integrating somatic therapy into her work. She explains why so many high earners still feel "bad with money," the emotional blocks that keep entrepreneurs from knowing their numbers, and how industry jargon and gatekeeping contribute to shame and avoidance. Throughout the episode, Steph and Meera break down the biggest money mistakes entrepreneurs make, how to choose the right financial advisor, why understanding your numbers is a somatic exercise, and how to use money to improve your quality of life—not outsource your entire life. This is an honest, grounding, and empowering conversation for anyone who wants to make more money and feel genuinely safe holding it. 00:00 Introduction 01:06 Meera's Journey: From Economics to Financial Planning 03:52 Why So Many Entrepreneurs Feel "Bad With Money" 07:41 Money Jargon, Gatekeeping & Financial Avoidance 10:22 Nervous System Responses to Wealth & Money Conversations 14:47 Fear of Success and Why More Money Can Feel Unsafe 17:10 Knowledge as a Somatic Regulator 19:28 How Financial Professionals Should Actually Support Clients 23:54 How to Choose a Financial Planner or Wealth Advisor 27:13 The Role of CPAs, Bookkeepers, and Fiduciaries Explained 31:02 Why Tracking Every Penny Is a Control Mechanism 34:22 Using Money to Improve Quality of Life (Not Avoid Life) 38:19 Outsourcing vs. Losing Connection to What Brings You Joy 43:08 What Clients Should Do First to Improve Their Relationship With Money 48:35 Creating Healthy, Values-Aligned Money Routines 52:20 Final Thoughts To connect with Meera, follow her on Instagram @meerashireen.

Financial advisors often begin the year energized, organized, and committed to ambitious goals. Yet, by March, many find their plans stalling—not because of a lack of motivation, but because of a lack of true accountability. In this episode, neurobiology-based performance and accountability expert Brian Ford breaks down why traditional views of discipline and accountability fail, how advisors can build systems that actually work, and what it takes to sustain long-term behavior change. Brian shares the science, psychology, and practical frameworks that help advisors stop relying on motivation alone and start building systems that drive real follow-through.

Stop saying "I'm not a runner." Use this reframe instead: "I'm a Grade 1 runner." This changes it from being an all-or-nothing proposition. It is also redefining what success looks like. For a Grade 1 runner, simply getting outside once or twice a week without hurting themselves is a success. That simple reframe can be enough to change behaviour, and build confidence and momentum. Bevan James Eyles, in my latest conversation for It's Never About Money, struck me as someone full of practical advice like this. Having wrestled with the question of willpower his whole career, I asked him: why is it that one person can find the willpower to train for an elite Ironman, while others struggle to exercise at all?

On Jesse's 11th "Ask Me Anything" episode, he unpacks four questions that sit at the center of real-life financial decision-making. He starts with a grounded look at the 15-year vs. 30-year mortgage debate, cutting through rules of thumb to show how interest rates, liquidity, cash-flow, and even your personal comfort with debt shape the right choice far more than blanket advice ever could. From there, he turns to the under-discussed strategy behind Health Savings Accounts—why the "invest and reimburse later" approach works, when it stops working, and how the tax bomb of leaving HSA dollars to non-spouse heirs should change how listeners think about funding and spending those accounts in their 50s and beyond. In a detailed case study, Jesse walks through a listener's complex 2026 tax year involving rental-property capital gains, ACA cliffs, Social Security timing, and potential Roth conversions, revealing how layered tax rules—income brackets, capital gains stacking, depreciation recapture, and NIIT—interact in ways that can either save or silently cost retirees thousands. And finally, he tackles whether a diehard DIY investor or Boglehead should ever hire a financial planner, drawing a sharp distinction between the "Uncle Franks" who truly live and breathe this stuff and the "Nicks" who love markets but miss the deeper planning work. With clarity, nuance, and practical wisdom, Jesse shows listeners not just what to do, but how to think through the tradeoffs that define good long-term planning. Key Takeaways: • A 15-year mortgage saves significant interest, but the higher monthly payments reduce cash-flow flexibility and increase default risk. • A 30-year mortgage often wins mathematically when investors "invest the difference," thanks to potentially higher long-term market returns versus fixed loan rates. • Choosing a mortgage term is partly a psychological decision, not just a financial optimization. • HSA dollars become a tax trap if left to non-spouse heirs, who must treat the entire balance as taxable income in the year of inheritance. • Selling a rental property triggers both capital gains and depreciation recapture, which can dramatically increase taxable income in that year. • DIY investors vary widely—some are true experts, while others know just enough to make avoidable mistakes.

Whether it's an inheritance, equity payout, stock options vesting, or another financial surprise, the "right" next step can feel overwhelming.

Today's conversation digs deep into one of the most important and misunderstood stages of financial development: the tween years. Research shows our money habits are formed as early as age seven, yet most people don't start investing seriously until their 30s or 40s. So what happens if we bridge that gap? What if kids as young as 10 begin learning how money works, how investing grows wealth, and how to make smart decisions with the dollars they earn, save, and spend?Our guest is Jamie Bosse is a Financial Planner, Author, and Mother of four. She helps her clients navigate life's transitions and overcome and anticipate potential roadblocks along the way. Jamie finds it extremely rewarding to see people organize their financial lives, maximize their human capital, and get closer to their life goals in her work at CGN Advisors. Jamie has a passion for mentoring and financial literacy and is the author of Money Boss Mom: Helping Young Parents Be the “Boss” of Their Financial Future, as well as the Milton the Money-Savvy Pup children's book series.Her next book, Investing for Tweens, is available for preorder here.In this episode, we explore how parents can introduce investing in a way that feels tangible, empowering, and fun — whether that's buying a share of Nike because your kid loves their sneakers or using a custodial brokerage account to let them experience the market in real time. We also talk about helping college-age kids understand the real cost of life, how to communicate money boundaries at home, and how parents can teach healthy financial habits even if they're still working through their own.

Certified financial planner Michelle Neiswender discusses her article, "Why physicians should not be their own financial planner." Michelle explains why physicians, despite being brilliant, often make costly financial mistakes when managing their own money. She argues that financial planning is a complex specialty (just like medicine) and that a doctor's time is too valuable to be spent decoding tax rules or tracking stocks. Michelle highlights the unique tax challenges physicians face as high-income earners and how emotional bias (like fear during a market dip) can derail a financial plan. This discussion covers why delegating to a CFP is a wealth-building strategy and how it protects physicians from costly errors in investments, retirement planning, and insurance. Learn why the smartest doctors get a "second opinion" on their financial health. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.
