Joe Quinlan, head of market strategy for Merrill Lynch and Bank of America Private Bank, says that the U.S. consumer higher-income households "are in great shape heading into 2026," and so long as the Boomers continue spending, the economy and stock market can roll along. Quinlan says that the economy can avoid a recession if the Federal Reserve can avoid policy mistakes, if the U.S. stays out of a difficult trade war and if the extraneous factors mostly stay at bay. Given what the market has weathered in 2025, Quinlan says there is reason to believe the rally can continue, even if results are muted a bit compared to the equity returns of the last three years. Chris Vermeulen, chief market strategist at The Technical Traders, says that investors should not be fighting current trends, but they should be getting cautious in a market where there's not a lot of upside left this year. He expects January to be a telling month for whether the rally can carry deep into 2026, and says that investors looking for bigger gains can still get in on the gold rally, which Vermeulen says still has 25 to 30 percent upside from current levels. Sandra Block, contributing editor at Kiplinger talks about what she learned about dental care for retirees as she made her own transition toward retirement earlier this year, and the choices consumers face as they weigh Medicare options. And Mark Hamrick discusses a recent BankRate.com survey which found that about half of working American adults expect to be reliant on Social Security benefits to handle necessary expenses when they retire, but more than three-quarters of that working population worries that their promised benefits won't be paid when they reach retirement age.

Paul & Randy discuss how Texas can take it to the Bulldogs in Athens. Other topics include, Gunner Stockton being a good college QB, Georgia's defensive decline, the Texas OL carrying a good Vandy game forward, the wonders of HS football, and the hilarious crap show at LSU that for Louisianans, is just another day in Louisiana.

When Willard M. Kiplinger launched the groundbreaking Kiplinger Washington Letter in 1923, he left the sidelines of traditional journalism to strike out on his own. With a specialized knowledge of finance and close connections to top Washington officials, Kiplinger was uniquely positioned to tell deeper truths about the intersections between government and business. With careful reporting and insider access, he delivered perceptive analysis and forecasts of business, economic, and political news to busy business executives, and the newsletter's readership grew exponentially over the coming decades. More than just a pioneering business journalist, Kiplinger emerged as a quiet but powerful link between the worlds of Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt, and used his Letter to play a little-known but influential role in the New Deal. Part journalism history, part biography, and part democratic chronicle, The Insider: How the Kiplinger Newsletter Bridged Washington and Wall Street (University of Massachusetts Press, 2022) offers a well-written and deeply researched portrayal of how Kiplinger not only developed a widely read newsletter that launched a business publishing empire but also how he forged a new role for the journalist as political actor." Rob Wells is is visiting associate professor at the Philip Merrill College of Journalism at the University of Maryland.

Paul & Randy rank, rate and debate the best open jobs in college football and a few that might come open. Is it as easy as it seems. We get to mock an ESPN writer, so that's good. Then Randy talks Vandy, will Texas fall for their eye candy? How will the Longhorns handle the mighty Top 10 Commodores?

Does Sark need an OC? Reasonable minds can differ, but he does need collaborators and he doesn't seem to have any, while the Longhorn defense has had many. Also, if you force Sark into an OC, it won't work. Paul explains the innovation flow of football on both sides of the ball and how and why having a defined system can create program clarity and protect college level OL play. Randy has some definite thoughts on why Texas didn't consolidate its OU game planning gains. What can we expect in Starkville? Tune in and find out.

The title says it all. Paul goes solo to share his thoughts on the 16-13 win in Kentucky, OL woes, Arch troubles, Sark's inability to carry over OU successes, and the strong play of the Longhorn special teams and defense. Then it's time for a thorough preview of the Mississippi State Bulldogs. They're dangerous in Starkville and the Horns must play better ball on offense if they want to silence those obnoxious cowbells.

Paul revels in the whipping of the Sooners and explains how and why it happened. An offense needs more than a hero ball QB and the Sooner defense can bleed. Then, it's on to the Cats. If Texas gets fat and happy and doesn't keep its violent edge and strong game planning from OU, we're in for a rude road awakening. The real opponent for Texas every year? Complacency.

She explains the crucial difference between revenue and profit, why separate bank accounts can save your business, and how to avoid nasty tax surprises that can cripple your cash flow. Key Takeaways Set up separate bank accounts for taxes, contractor expenses, and operating costs to avoid accidentally spending money that's already allocated Focus on profit margins (aim for at least 30%) rather than just top-line revenue numbers Get proactive tax planning to avoid surprise bills—a good CPA should give you quarterly projections, not April surprises Before buying any equipment or hiring staff, ask yourself if it will actually make you money or save you time that translates to revenue About Deb Meyer Deb Meyer, CFP®, CPA, and CEPA, is the award-winning author of Redefining Family Wealth, host of the Beyond Budgets® podcast, and founder of WorthyNest®, a fee-only, fiduciary wealth management firm that guides parents through important financial decisions using a values-based approach.
