In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Should you purchase I Bonds?  Treasuries are as safe as it gets  Five places to put your money  Inflation is personal    Key Takeaways:  Purchasing I Bonds is a no-brainer. Go to treasurydirect.gov to buy direct from the treasury I Bonds.  Treasuries are as safe as it gets because they can tax us and confiscate our money to pay them off, and that would happen if we needed to do that. The downside to I Bonds is that they don't allow you to put as much money in them.  There are only five legitimate places to put your money that protects the principal and that you're not going to lose a dime, and you're going to get an interest rate. Those five are money markets, CDs, fixed-rate annuities - also called MYGAs, treasuries, and Triple A-Triple A insured municipal bonds. Inflation is personal. Don't get too caught up on inflation because most people in retirement will not be affected that much by it. Ask yourself if you're being affected by it, or are you overplanning?    "If it's a no-brainer, then it's a no-brainer, and I-Bonds are the ultimate no-brainer. You can do it every year, so why not put it on your calendar and do it every year? It just makes sense.

Back in 2022 when inflation was through the roof, we were able to buy I Bonds, or inflation bonds, with a 9.6% return! Now though, the rate of return is just over 3%. In this video, Peter with Richon Planning and Erin Kennedy discuss whether investors should redeem those I Bonds and invest in something else. The short answer is yes. There are several places you can put your money right now that are considered "low risk" and still have a higher rate of return than 3%. That being said, if you sell your I Bond before its 5-year maturity date, you will lose the last 3 months' interest. If you'd like to crunch the numbers with Peter, and discuss alternate investments, please call (919) 300 - 5886 or visit www.RichonPlanning.com

#554: The U.S. jobs market hit a surprising speed bump in October, adding just 12,000 new jobs — way below the expected 100,000.  A mix of natural disasters and labor unrest explains the slump. Recent hurricanes in the Southeast wiped out somewhere between 40,000 to 70,000 jobs, while strikes at Boeing and other companies added to the slowdown. Against this backdrop, the Federal Reserve looks ready to cut interest rates next week by 0.25 percent. Meanwhile, gold is having its biggest moment since 1979, but not for reasons you might expect. Central banks, especially in China and India, are loading up on physical gold like never before. Poland's central bank has grabbed 167 tons of gold and wants to keep 20 percent of its reserves in gold — a move that hints at banks preparing for possible global shake-ups. Remember when I-Bonds were the hot ticket in 2022, paying out 9.6 percent? Those glory days are gone. The new rate has dropped to 3.1 percent, making your standard high-yield savings account look pretty good in comparison. In the stock market, it's all about the "Magnificent Seven" — Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Nvidia, Meta, and Tesla. These tech giants account for 62 percent of all S&P 500 gains over the past year. The other 493 companies aren't doing too shabby either, with profits expected to grow 13 percent next year. As for the upcoming election, both presidential candidates' economic plans would push the federal deficit higher. The Wharton School of Business says Trump's proposals would add $5.8 trillion to the deficit over 10 years, while Harris's would add $1.2 trillion. There's also talk about tariffs that could spark inflation and maybe even kick off a global trade war. Here's the kicker: during the 2016 election, a 24-year-old Sam Bankman-Fried correctly predicted the outcome before anyone else and made $300 million in a single night trading on that information. But by morning, the markets had swung so wildly that he'd lost $600 million.  The lesson? Even if you guess the election right, predicting how markets will react is a whole different ball game — one that you should avoid. Think long-term, buy-and-hold.  Timestamps: Note: Timestamps will vary on individual listening devices based on dynamic advertising run times.

Many rules come with exceptions. Perhaps that's nowhere more true than with financial decisions.In most situations, paying off the mortgage and becoming debt-free is the right decision, but it may not be possible for everyone. Harlan Accola joins us today to discuss “red doors” and exceptions to the rule.Harlan Accola is the National Reverse Mortgage Director at Movement Mortgage, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. He is also the author of Home Equity and Reverse Mortgages: The Cinderella of the Baby Boomer Retirement.The Meaning Behind Red DoorsRed doors have rich historical significance. In biblical times, red signified safety and protection, as seen with the Israelites marking their doors during the Passover. In Scottish tradition, a red door symbolized that a home was mortgage-free—a point of pride. Early Americans painted their doors red to signal a place of rest for weary travelers.While red doors symbolize safety and accomplishment, it's important to rethink what safety truly means. Is safety just about paying off your mortgage? Or could it also mean being able to stay in your home, meet your needs, and share your blessings with others as you age?Reverse Mortgages and Financial StewardshipFor many seniors, having a mortgage-free home is a milestone of God's provision. However, a reverse mortgage (HECM) can provide additional safety, especially for those struggling to make ends meet. It allows seniors to draw income from their home equity and stay in their homes while meeting their financial needs.Seniors over 62 have over $13 trillion in home equity—a massive untapped resource. For some, a reverse mortgage could be an answer to prayer, helping cover bills and providing peace of mind. Reverse mortgages offer a unique opportunity to be good stewards of the resources God has provided, ensuring we can enjoy our homes and meet our needs in retirement.To determine if a reverse mortgage is the right solution for your situation, visit Movement.com/Faith.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I am 61 years old and want to file for Social Security at 62.

We feel like we're the only ones who disagree, and it's difficult writing out that tithe check when we don't agree with the financial decisions.

We've all heard it time and again from the world's biggest success stories: They worked crazy hours, gave up their friendships, and kept their nose to the grind for years before they got their big break. What are they telling us?  Essentially, you'll never succeed unless you're willing to give up everything else to get there, and there's no way to avoid burnout. In other words, suffering is what leads to success. But we've also seen that this mentality can cause burnout, depression, or stepping away from a career that you thought you loved.  Ali Abdaal, author of “Feel-Good Productivity: How to Do More of What Matters to You,” knows exactly what this feels like. While working as a doctor, he was doing everything he could to keep up, but found himself miserable and completely burned out at the end of every workday. He decided to change his life and master productivity — today, he's one of the world's most followed productivity experts. Listen in to hear his advice on how we can use “power, people, and play” to avoid burnout, and even make everyday tasks more fun.  In Mailbag, we hear from a listener who's looking for advice on how to recover mentally and emotionally after being laid off, and we check in with someone who bought iBonds in the early 2000s and is wondering if she can use them to pay for higher education.

In this episode: changing your mindset, starting FI at 50, the pros and cons of starting late, and facing your faults. We always say on this show that FI is for everyone, but our guests Becky Heptig and Bill Yount really embody this message. As hosts of the "Catching Up to FI" podcast, Becky and Bill are a fantastic resource for those who have found FI later in life and still would like to give it a go despite the delayed start! While FI looks different for everyone and can be influenced by when you start, we agree with Bill and Becky in saying becoming intentional with your finances is always a positive decision, no matter when you do it in life. Although your path may look different from those who started earlier, you would still be taking steps to better your life inside and around your finances. Perfection isn't the goal, improvement is what we strive for, and a positive step is still a step in the right direction!
