Everyone is worried about the market crashing… But the real threat to your retirement may be something far more predictable—and far more dangerous. Taxes. In this episode, Drew Stevens, PhD, shares a powerful perspective from over four decades in financial services. He explains why so many retirees unknowingly walk into retirement with a major blind spot: they've built wealth, but they haven't built a tax strategy. From IRAs and 401(k)s to Social Security taxation and IRMAA brackets, Drew breaks down how taxes can quietly erode your retirement income—and what you can do about it. You'll walk away understanding: Why future tax increases are likely How tax diversification can protect your income The importance of strategic withdrawals Why “just paying taxes later” is not a strategy How to start reducing your lifetime tax burden today If you've never had a detailed tax conversation with your advisor, this episode could change everything.

What does it actually feel like to be on the cusp of retirement and wonder if you're doing it right? This week, Jean sits down with two listeners, Nancy and Melissa, who are both asking the same underlying question: How do I make sure I don't run out of money in retirement, while still actually enjoying my life? First, Jean talks with Nancy, 68, a soon-to-be retired nurse with $850K saved, a pension, and Social Security on the way. Nancy wants to renovate her bathrooms before she stops working, but she's torn between using her HELOC or tapping her nest egg.  Then Jean hears from Melissa, 53, who, along with her husband, has $1.2M+ saved across tax-deferred, Roth, brokerage, and treasury accounts, and wonders if she's taking on too much risk. Jean helps her zoom out, look at the full financial picture, and think through what a bucket strategy or annuity could mean for her peace of mind. In this episode: HELOC vs. refinance vs. pulling from savings; how to think through home improvement financing in retirement The 4% rule and when it makes sense to use it RMDs, IRMAA penalties, and why timing your withdrawals matters more than you think What 72% stocks actually look like when you account for your entire net worth Why hybrid long-term care policies might be worth a look How guaranteed income can actually free you to invest more aggressively with the rest Learn more about your ad choices.

Growing Your Nest Egg: A primer on investing for my grandchildren and other young adults by John W Weiser https://www.amazon.com/Growing-Your-Nest-Egg-grandchildren/dp/1778836879 COVERING THE BASICS OF INVESTING, Growing Your Nest Egg offers tips and pointers to familiarize readers with the benefits of saving for retirement, especially through owning stocks and bonds.

Welcome to this week's episode of the Money and Investing Show with Andrew Baxter and co-host Mitch. Superannuation is one of the most powerful tools Australians have for building long term wealth, yet many people pay very little attention to it. For many, super runs quietly in the background while contributions go in automatically. But without a clear strategy, that retirement nest egg may fall well short of what is possible. In this episode, Andrew and Mitch unpack the key ideas behind Optimising Superannuation in Australia and why it deserves far more focus than most people give it. From understanding how super works to avoiding common mistakes such as holding multiple accounts or ignoring asset allocation, they explain how small changes today can lead to a far stronger financial position later in life. The conversation also covers practical strategies for Optimising Superannuation in Australia, including adjusting your investment mix, consolidating accounts to reduce fees, and making additional contributions in a tax efficient way. Andrew also shares insights into self managed super funds, when they may make sense, and the risks investors should consider before setting one up. Retirement planning is not something to leave until the last minute. By focusing on Optimising Superannuation in Australia early and consistently, investors can give themselves a far better chance of building a retirement they can truly enjoy.

Most retirement conversations obsess over account balances - how much you've saved, how your portfolio performed, whether you've hit a "number." But retirement doesn't work like a scorecard. It works like a paycheck. In this episode, we reframe retirement planning around the question that actually matters: How much reliable monthly income can your investments generate, and can you use it confidently? Take too much, and you risk running out of money. Take too little, and you risk living smaller than you need to, postponing joy, and merely enduring retirement instead of enjoying it. We'll break down why retirement success is driven by income, not assets; how to think about sustainable withdrawal without fear or guesswork; and how strategic spending allows you to experience life now while still protecting the future.  Most importantly, we'll explain why replacing your paycheck with a thoughtful, durable income plan is the foundation of real retirement planning, and the difference between hoping your money lasts and knowing your lifestyle will. If you want a retirement built around confidence, clarity, and lived experiences  (not just preservation) this episode will help you rethink everything you've been told about "how much is enough."

If you get a distribution from your 457, it may feel like income that you can do whatever with. This time of year, it may be tempting to spend it on a Christmas retreat or a New Year's reset, but is that going to steal your retirement nest egg? Nate Reineke and Chelsea Jones break down how that distribution can be used to bolster your retirement plans and how for Physician Family clients, it is already factored into their plan. We also answer your colleagues' questions. A Surgeon in New York says, “We are a little bit ahead on college savings for our 7 and 9 year old children, should we slow down?” Retired Family Medicine Doc in Oregon wants to know if they should do QCDs next year? A Psychiatrist in Chicago asks, “We want to move to a better neighborhood and buy a house that is twice as expensive as our current home. If we can afford the monthly mortgage, why not do it?” A Retired Urologist in Oregon is wondering, “Should we consider taking more than just the RMD in our inherited IRA in order to reduce ballooning during the end of the 10-year period, causing our taxable income to spike?” Are you ready to turn worries about taxes and investing into all the money you need for college and retirement?

#660: Caring for an aging parent can morph into a second full-time job, and even the most financially savvy adults get blindsided. Bank accounts freeze, home sales stall, and family savings disappear faster than anyone expects. In this episode, we dig into what really happens when you take over a parent's financial life, from the first power of attorney to the final tax return. We explore the emotional and logistical realities of dementia care, Medicaid, trusts, probate, and why a single smartphone setting can determine whether you can access the information you need. Veteran financial journalist and certified financial planner Beth Pinsker joins us to share the hard lessons she learned while managing her parents' money, housing, and estate. She opens up about the “you don't know what you don't know” moments that hit even experts. We look at why almost every caregiver reaches a breaking point, the two documents that can save a year of stress and tens of thousands of dollars, how a forgotten zero-balance home equity line nearly torpedoed a real estate deal, and why phone access now belongs at the center of estate planning. We also confront the brutal math of long-term dementia care, the real differences between Medicare and Medicaid, how to evaluate facilities beyond brochures, and what happens when a parent dies without updated paperwork. Through it all, we focus on how clear conversations about wishes and values can reduce guilt and burnout for the people left steering the ship. Key Takeaways Financial caregiving comes for almost everyone eventually, and even experts hit roadblocks, so the goal is not perfection but reducing avoidable chaos. Power of attorney and healthcare proxy documents are foundational, often more urgent than a will, and they need to be current, state-appropriate, and shared with the people who may need to use them. A locked smartphone without a legacy contact can become a financial brick, cutting caregivers off from essential clues about accounts, subscriptions, and bills. Long-term dementia care can run five to six figures per year, outlasting even solid nest eggs, so families need to confront the realities of Medicaid and state-specific safety nets before the money runs out. How assets are titled, from bank accounts to real estate, determines whether heirs inherit smoothly through a trust or spend years and thousands of dollars navigating probate. The most important “plan” is knowing a loved one's wishes for quality of life and end-of-life care, so financial and medical decisions feel like honoring them instead of guessing in the dark. Key moments (0:00) Why financial caregiving blindsides even the experts (05:18) The hidden home equity line that almost killed a real estate deal (10:54) Two documents every adult in your life should have (14:29) The critical phone setting that protects access to accounts and memories (21:23) What Prince's estate taught us about wills and inertia (31:39) Planning for a decade of dementia care without going broke (35:16) How Medicaid really works and why “running out of money” is a process (38:46) The menu of care options from in-home help to CCRCs and nursing homes (44:31) The “smell test” for evaluating facilities in the real world (51:06) What to do in the first weeks after a parent dies (54:38) Trusts, titles, probate, and how one frozen account cost $5,000 to unlock (01:01:04) Knowing their wishes so money decisions feel like honoring, not guessing Resources and Links Beth Pinsker's website: bethpinsker.com Beth's retirement and financial planning columns at MarketWatch Beth's book, My Mother's Money, on financial caregiving and planning for aging parents and loved ones Learn more about your ad choices.

One NZ-based think tank is floating the idea of KiwiSaver schemes for kids, claiming it could set them up with $10,000-$20,000 in savings by the time they reach adulthood. The Institute for Democratic and Economic Analysis has put out a report proposing different models, including a kickstart Government payment and matching parental contributions. Max Rashbrooke, co-founder of the Institute for Democratic and Economic Engagement Analysis, says it could make a significant difference. "Obviously, the Government's moving to make financial literacy a compulsory part of the curriculum, we think that's an excellent idea - but how much more meaningful would that financial literacy education be in high school classes if every child in that class knows they've got a KiwiSaver account that's accumulating?"

When people think of what could haunt their retirement, they often imagine running out of money, facing unexpected expenses, or living too long. But as we discuss in this episode, there's a more insidious villain: sequence of return risk. Sequence of return risk refers to the threat of poor investment returns occurring early in your retirement years, just when you start withdrawing funds. Even if the average returns over your retirement are sufficient, early losses can irreparably damage your nest egg and dramatically increase the odds of running out of money. To bring these concepts to life (with a Halloween twist), we walk through a scenario featuring Jamie Lee Curtis's iconic character, Laurie Strode, imagining her retirement through 25 years of market ups and downs. The outcome all depends on her initial withdrawal strategy and, crucially, how her portfolio is allocated. Outline of This Episode [00:00] A Halloween retirement survival tale, ft. Laurie Strode.

NEST EGG #RTTBROS #NightlightNest EggLuke 12:21 - "So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."Medieval farmers knew something smart about chickens. When collecting eggs, they'd always leave one in the nest, what they called the "nest egg." That one egg kept the hen coming back to lay more. Take them all, and your chicken might hide her eggs somewhere you'd never find them.By the fourteenth century, peasants used this phrase to describe their approach to the future: set aside a little now, find security later. It was about thinking beyond today's hunger to tomorrow's needs.That's good wisdom, and there's nothing wrong with planning for the future and being responsible with what God gives us. But Jesus told a story that puts this in perspective. A rich man had such a good harvest that he tore down his barns to build bigger ones. He was planning for many years of easy living, but God called him a fool because that very night, his soul was required of him.See, there's a difference between wise planning and foolish hoarding. The question Jesus asks is: what kind of nest egg are you building?Are you laying up treasure in heaven or just on earth? Are you investing in things that'll matter a hundred years from now, or just things that make you feel secure today?I'm not saying don't plan for retirement. I'm saying make sure your spiritual nest egg is growing too. Every act of kindness, every moment in prayer, every dollar given to God's work, that's your eternal nest egg growing.Because friend, earthly nest eggs can disappear in a market crash, but heavenly treasure is safe forever.Prayer: God, help me be wise with earthly planning but even wiser with eternal investing. Show me how to be rich toward You. Amen.Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe, it helps get the word out. https://linktr.ee/rttbros

Click here to work with us! For decades, you've been focused on saving—watching your retirement accounts grow, sticking to a budget, and making smart financial decisions to ensure a secure future. But now that the time has come to actually enjoy your hard-earned money, spending it feels... unsettling.  You're not alone. Many retirees struggle with the mental shift from accumulation to decumulation, even when their financial plans show they have more than enough.

Today we explore strategies for overcoming the retirement spending fear, based on an insightful Forbes article by Tim Maurer. We'll break down his three-step approach: phasing into retirement instead of stopping abruptly, redefining "work" to maintain purpose and fulfillment, and structuring an investment portfolio designed specifically for retirement withdrawals. Plus, we'll tackle a listener question about Social Security spousal benefits and the implications of early filing. By the end of the episode, you'll gain a clearer understanding of how to embrace your retirement, spend with confidence, and fully enjoy the wealth you've built.  Outline of This Episode (0:00) The fear of spending in retirement (1:19) The “Retirement Cycle of Fear” (3:13) Step 1: Phase into retirement gradually (5:15) Step 2: Keep working, but redefine it (7:20) Step 3: Build a portfolio for spending (10:14) Listener Q – Social Security & spouses (14:30) Final thoughts (how to thrive in retirement) Resources & People Mentioned The Retirement Podcast Network Tim Maurer's Forbes article – Overcoming the fear of spending in retirement.

In this episode of Confessions, Jess and Cindy chat with Caroline Danks, a UK-based fundraising consultant who runs Lark Owl with her partner. Caroline shares her journey from traditional consulting to developing multiple revenue streams, most recently transitioning her email newsletter to a monetized Substack publication called The Nest Egg.Caroline discusses how she began as a freelancer in 2016 after being made redundant, then discovered the potential of online business beyond selling time for money. After initially creating and selling online courses for several years, she faced email deliverability challenges in 2023 that prompted her to rethink her business model. This led her to Substack, where she now monetizes her weekly newsletter directly, charging £6/month or £60/year.Caroline shares her marketing strategy, focusing on LinkedIn for discovery, Substack's recommendation feature for cross-promotion with other writers, and consistently producing high-quality content that people naturally share. She also discusses her decision to retire her online courses and workshops in favor of a simpler business model that prioritizes what she truly enjoys.Key Takeaways:Monetize What You Already Love Doing: Caroline found success by turning her passion for writing emails—something she was already doing weekly—into a revenue stream. As she puts it, "there's a simplicity in being able to monetize a thing that you would be doing anyway and a thing that you probably would do if nobody paid you for it because you love it so much."Quality Content Is Your Best Marketing Tool: Caroline emphasizes that creating genuinely valuable content is central to her strategy. Each piece helps her clarify her own thinking on important topics while providing tactical advice to readers, which naturally encourages sharing and word-of-mouth growth.Simplify for Sustainability: By retiring her online courses and reducing workshops and affiliate marketing, Caroline created a more streamlined business model that reduces overwhelm and focuses on her strengths. This intentional simplification helps maintain quality while preventing burnout.Alternative Revenue Models Require Patience: Caroline is transparent about the "slow burn" nature of subscription models, noting that a low-cost product requires higher volume to be significant financially. She's comfortable with this gradual growth because it aligns with her lifestyle needs and desire for business simplicity.There's Power in a Weekly Commitment: For five years, Caroline has consistently published content every Tuesday at 10am without fail (except for planned breaks in August and December). This consistency has been crucial to building trust and a loyal audience that's willing to pay for her expertiseFind Us Online:  https://www.confessionswithjessandcindy.comConnect with Caroline:LinkedIn: Caroline Danks: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/caroline-danks-ab54b921 Substack: The Nest Egg: https://larkowl.uk/newsletter/ Connect with Cindy:Cindy Wagman Coaching: cindywagman.comFractional Fundraising Network: fractionalfundraising.co/LinkedIn: ca.linkedin.com/in/cindywagmanConnect with Jess:Out In the Boons: outintheboons.meLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jesscampbelloutntiheboons/
