Retirement income doesn't have to mean hoarding assets or obsessing over leaving an inheritance. In this episode of Talking Real Money, Don and Tom dig into a topic that still makes many investors flinch: reverse mortgages. Using recent research and real-world planning logic, they walk through why modern reverse mortgages aren't the shady last-ditch option they once were, how they can reduce cash-flow stress, and when they may (or may not) make sense as part of a broader retirement plan. Along the way, they tackle myths about heirs losing the house, unpack the true costs, and explain why being “house rich and cash poor” is a real planning problem. The show also answers listener questions on bond ladders using iShares iBonds ETFs, critiques Vanguard's newer fixed-income ETF BNDF, and closes with a reminder that yield chasing — even from respected firms — still carries risk. 0:04 Retirement isn't about dying rich — it's about spending your money on you 0:25 Why inheritance shouldn't be the primary goal (with one important exception) 1:21 Shirt colors, corporate culture, and the last people still wearing white dress shirts 2:48 Smoking everywhere: airplanes, hospitals, grocery stores — and why it mattered financially 4:12 Disney jokes, expensive vacations, and setting the tone 5:08 Introducing the real topic: reverse mortgages 5:15 Why reverse mortgages still scare people — and why that reputation exists 6:44 How FHA regulation changed the reverse-mortgage landscape 7:21 Are reverse mortgages really a “last resort”? 8:14 Using home equity to improve lifestyle, not just survive retirement 8:52 Are reverse mortgages expensive? Breaking down the real costs 10:53 Lending limits, age factors, and how much equity you can actually access 12:39 When the upfront costs make sense — and when they don't 14:35 Myth busted: heirs can still inherit the home 15:08 You still own your house — it's just a mortgage with no monthly payment 16:18 Reverse mortgages as liquidity, not a wealth-building tool 16:33 The importance of planning before touching home equity 16:45 $35 trillion locked in U.S. home equity — and why paying off mortgages isn't always smart 17:57 Downsizing versus staying put: another option entirely 19:59 Listener question: simplifying a complex bond ladder 21:17 Using iShares iBonds ETFs to build a disciplined bond ladder 22:32 The risk of breaking the ladder when rates change 23:41 Listener question: Vanguard's BNDF ETF 24:44 Why chasing yield in bond funds can backfire 26:06 Gimmicks, relevance, and Vanguard's shift away from leadership 26:33 RetireMeet 2026 preview and registration details Learn more about your ad choices.

Private asset-based finance (ABF) is gaining prominence in insurance portfolio strategy as insurers evaluate its capital efficiency, structural protections, and yield potential. In this episode of the InsuranceAUM.com podcast, Stewart Foley is joined by John Roglieri, Managing Director in Brookfield's Strategic Credit Initiatives, and Remo Plunkett, Vice President in Brookfield's Credit Group, to explore the evolution of ABF and its growing relevance for insurers.   The discussion covers why ABF is not just a newer version of traditional securitized assets, but a broad, flexible toolkit that includes real assets, recurring cash flows, and customized structures tailored to insurer needs. With insights on risk management, capital treatment, and relative value versus direct lending, this episode offers a timely look at how insurers can build resilient portfolios in an increasingly complex credit environment.

In this episode of The Lending Brief (sponsored by Allocore), former Treasury Fiscal Assistant Secretary and Acting Deputy Secretary Dave Lebryk joins the show to reflect on a career at the center of federal financial management—from government-wide data modernization to delivering emergency payments at historic speed.Drawing on his leadership during the DATA Act implementation and the rollout of pandemic economic impact payments, Lebryk discusses what government gets right in moments of crisis, why agile methods and cross-agency collaboration matter, and how trust, data quality, and execution are deeply intertwined. He explains how Treasury dramatically expanded fraud-prevention capabilities, why federally funded, state-administered programs remain a major opportunity area, and how better data aggregation can protect taxpayers without slowing delivery.The conversation also explores where shared services and standardized platforms could most improve federal lending and grants, the role of the private sector in scaling fraud detection and identity verification, and what it will take to build seamless, end-to-end experiences for borrowers—without sacrificing oversight. Lebryk closes with reflections on the next generation of public servants and why technological fluency will be essential to the future of federal credit programs.Want more from The Lending Brief?

Eyes off US roads to understand lithium demand It may have seemed as though 2025 would have been a challenging year for lithium but North American electric vehicle production accounted for only about 10% of the global total, even prior to the expiration of the $7500 subsidy. That's one reason that equities tied to the metal have fared well. Chinese EVs and battery storage, a beneficiary of data center investment, are much more important contributors to the lithium demand story today, while future drivers include drones and robots. Rock discusses how all this translates for lithium demand and touches on the supply outlook where possible project restarts could have meaningful impact on our estimates. We pivot to Matt for a discussion of chemicals more broadly and discuss phosphate, where the demand tailwinds aren't as strong as but where supply constraints are stronger. We even get into common threads between lithium and phosphate.   You may also enjoy listening to the Merrill Perspectives podcast, featuring conversations on the big stories, news and trends affecting your everyday financial life.   "Bank of America" and “BofA Securities” are the marketing names for the global banking businesses and global markets businesses (which includes BofA Global Research) of Bank of America Corporation.

*This episode was recorded in October 2025*This episode with Dr Lev Breydo explores how sovereign debt has evolved into a strategic instrument of power in an era of heightened geopolitical risk. We examine how credit markets, financial infrastructure, and legal design now shape state behaviour, constrain autonomy, and function as tools of coercion below the threshold of open conflict. The discussion looks at political default, sanctions, and the weaponisation of finance, alongside record global debt levels and the growing risks facing emerging and frontier economies. We also unpack the role of the United States at the centre of the global credit system, and how domestic fiscal politics can generate international instability. Finally, the episode considers how artificial intelligence and digital finance may reshape sovereign risk, transparency, and future fault lines in the global financial order.Dr Breydo is a scholar of law, finance, and technology whose research focuses on sovereign debt markets, financial institutions, digital assets, and artificial intelligence. His work examines how legal frameworks and market structures shape power, risk, and governance in the international system, with particular attention to debt distress, sanctions, and the strategic use of financial infrastructure. He engages regularly with policymakers, academics, and market participants on issues at the intersection of geopolitics, financial stability, and emerging technologies.The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk.

The Mishneh Torah was the Rambam's (Rabbi Moses ben Maimon) magnum opus, a work spanning hundreds of chapters and describing all of the laws mentioned in the Torah. To this day it is the only work that details all of Jewish observance, including those laws which are only applicable when the Holy Temple is in place. Participating in one of the annual study cycles of these laws (3 chapters/day, 1 chapter/day, or Sefer Hamitzvot) is a way we can play a small but essential part in rebuilding the final Temple.

Homebuying isn't one size fits all, and your mortgage shouldn't be either. Kimberly Nehiley, senior loan officer at Supreme Lending, joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss nontraditional loan options and creative strategies every Atlanta homebuyer should know. Why Homebuyers Need a Mortgage Expert Buying a home is often the most significant financial decision a person will make, and the process can feel overwhelming. Supreme Lending goes beyond traditional loan origination to help clients evaluate cash flow, debt and long-term financial goals. Nehiley said, “It’s usually the product that they have the most anxiety about, because you’re dealing with their credit, their income, their money, their hopes and dreams, and their family’s hopes and dreams.” Supreme Lending also offers Supreme Essentials, which includes Budget Essentials and Credit Essentials, 20- to 30-minute online courses that guide clients on budgeting and credit management. The firm's in-house credit expert, with more than 30 years of experience at credit bureaus, helps clients raise their scores by an average of 100 points. Nehiley said, “Maybe you’re at a 650, but getting to 750 changes your interest rate by half a percent. I mean, those can be substantial amounts.” To make the mortgage process more transparent, Supreme Lending uses an AI-powered tool called the Home Buyer Journey. The technology includes several modules that guide clients through every step of the homebuying process. Innovative Mortgage Options for Today's Buyers Looking for more flexibility in your mortgage? Nehiley shares some of her favorite options that are gaining traction: Bank Statement Loans: For self-employed borrowers, income is verified through bank deposits instead of tax returns. Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) Loans: These loans focus on rental property cash flow rather than personal income. 40-Year Mortgages: 40-year mortgages reduce monthly payments for increased affordability. Proposed 50-year mortgages could provide additional flexibility for debt management and short-term affordability. Two-One Buydowns: Two-one buydowns are temporary interest rate reductions that benefit both homebuyers and builders. Interest-Only Mortgages: Homebuyers manage their cash flow while benefiting from home appreciation. “These loans are vehicles to help buyers now—they don't mean you're locked in for decades,” said Nehiley. “You can refinance or adjust as your situation changes.” Helping Buyers Make Smart Decisions With numerous loan options and fluctuating rates, Nehiley is passionate about educating clients to reduce confusion and stress. She breaks down costs into manageable steps, showing how small changes in loan amounts, down payments or home prices affect monthly payments. “For every $10,000 in home price, your monthly payment changes by roughly $60 to $70. That perspective helps buyers make informed decisions and avoid sticker shock.” Tune into the full episode for deeper insight into innovative mortgage products, creative financing solutions and how buyers can navigate today's evolving homebuying landscape.
