The great wealth transfer of trillions of dollars in assets – approximately $72.6 trillion over the next 20 years – has begun. Among those assets are inherited properties, but it's tough to deal with the baggage that comes with an inherited house. Pam Krueger from Wealthramp is back to go over essential questions to ask when you inherit a house.

Getting ready to inherit a house It's not unusual to consider a home as part of an inheritance. However, if you're on the receiving end of that inheritance, you might not be sure what to do. Pam points out that any type of inheritance can be emotional and lead to difficult conversations. If you need help talking to your parents, we have a podcast episode about how to talk to your aging parents about money. When you decide to talk about inheriting a house with your parents and siblings, it might also be a good idea to bring in a financial planning professional or estate planner. Getting everyone together so you're all on the same page can reduce the stress involved later. How to deal with an inherited house As you review the inheritance, there are some important questions to ask, and plenty of pitfalls to avoid. Some of the most important things to address include: Is there a reverse mortgage on the home? Once your parents pass, a reverse mortgage can potentially put some limitations on your ability to keep the home in the family. Miranda shares a story of a friend who had no idea there was a reverse mortgage on an inherited house and is dealing with the fallout. Do you understand the capital gains? Pam talks about stepped-up basis for capital gains taxes on an inherited house. The good news is that you'll be protected from some of the tax consequences of inheriting. Should you buyout the home? Talk to your siblings about a buyout if you want to be able to do what you want with the inherited house. How do you split the proceeds? If you're sharing, you need to know how to split the proceeds—after the estate pays out for taxes and upkeep and other expenses. What's the family situation? Be realistic about your family situation and your parents as you discuss family matters and take into account everyone's preferences.

Gen X is often considered the overlooked generation, but we're looking right at YOU today. Gen X is people born between 1965 and 1980, so this is a group that should be starting to think about retirement. But will they be ready? As the Baby Boomer generation aged, they figured they'd need just under a million – $990,000 to retire. Gen X? Different story. According to the results of a January survey by Northwestern Mutual, the average amount that people across this age group said they would need to retire comfortably is closer to $1.5 million. Yet, the average Gen X household has only $40,000 in retirement savings, compared to the Baby Boomers' average of $70,000. This week, friend of the show Pam Krueger from Wealthramp joins us to talk about what you can do if you're worried about hitting your retirement mark.

Gex X is stressed about retirement Miranda and Aaron are Gen X, but they're not super-stressed about retirement. At least not yet. They're a little ahead of the curve in terms of average net worth by generation, but that has more to do with their career path than anything else. However, if you're Gen X and worried about retirement, you're not alone. Gen X is feeling the pinch of being the sandwich generation, and we discuss that reality with our guest, Pam. With all the family financial pressures, it's no surprise that Gen X is feeling concerned. The good news is that there's still time to catch up and make a plan for a better financial future, and we talk about it in this episode. Steps for securing your Gen X retirement Pam takes us through some of the most important steps you can take to make retirement a reality, even if you feel like you've fallen behind. Some of the things you can do right now include: Use a deep dive into your finances to figure out where you're at and create a plan for your money. Identify your magic number for retirement, including the calculations you need to determine it. Contribute to tax-advantaged retirement accounts (including the Roth IRA) and make catch-up contributions if eligible.

Retirement, like many things in life, is a balancing act. There are some daunting challenges to solve and practical realities to face - and you'll ignore them at your peril. But you don't want them to limit your aspirations or put a damper on imagining what's possible in this next phase of life. So, how are people thinking about retirement these days? And what can pre-retirees learn from the experience of those who've already retired? The Transamerica Institute and Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies recently surveyed over 4,650 people in the US, with a sample comprised of 58% pre-retirees 50+ and 42% retirees, on their views on retirement.

The term “Unretirement” is popping up more and more these days, and Chris Farrell literally wrote the book on it.

A leading voice of the Unretirement movement, Chris joins Wes to share his thoughts on why so many Baby Boomers have decided to embrace the Unretirement lifestyle on their terms.

There is a shortage of geriatricians in the U.S.—approximately 7,500 board-certified geriatricians for nearly 56 million people 65 and over in the U.S.  Workplace and retirement are big issues for older adults—finding a new identity and sense of purpose as overarching themes. Dennis recommends taking a breath and thinking about what brings pleasure and joy. Aging is a hard sell. We need to figure out how to make it palatable and aspirational. Aging needs to be framed in both realistic and positive terms with a focus on opportunities.

*this is a replay from July 4, 2022*Whether you've had a dream about your person, you didn't have a dream about your person, or your person was ignoring/speaking to/interacting with you in the dream, we often seek their meaning.

We are witnessing a broad transformation of our economy and society. The old idea of "retirement" is disappearing. The boomer generation, poised to live longer and be well educated compared to previous generations, is experimenting with "unretirement," including work in the traditional retirement years. The unretirement years may include part-time work, flexible jobs, temp work, contract work, a new career, or even starting an entrepreneurial venture. Their experience, wisdom, and, significantly, their continued earnings will benefit the American workplace, dramatically ease financial worries, and enrich communities and our whole society.About Chris Farrell:Chris Farrell is currently a senior economics contributor at Marketplace, American Public Media's nationally syndicated public radio business and economic program.

I'm blown away because I look at this and I see that for the first time in a really long time, in my memory anyway, every stage of career is helped in some way by this legislation. It is passed. It is real. It's happening. It's going into effect. So, just look at some of the benefits and how it helps people overall, I see more ways to save, more ways to expand your savings and to do it in much smarter tax planning ways. Some of these laws allow us to save more like in a Roth environment versus just a traditional IRA or traditional 401k and allows you to put more away in a single year. So, there's something here for everybody."   On Why Humility is an Asset in a Financial Advisor "So for me, humility is a huge X-factor because I had so many people coming to me from our show, and women many times, and they would say, Pam, I'm working with this advisor, I don't even like him. He makes me feel so small, makes me feel like I'm so lucky if I get an answer. He talks way up here and speaks in jargon. That doesn't fly. So Joe, when someone points me to a fiduciary-feeling advisor who looks on paper squeaky clean, I'm excited. And then I can tell, this is why I do the interviews with them. When they're talking to me and if they're making me feel that they just are really wanting to lecture, you know that you're going to be entering into a relationship with an advisor who everybody thinks is the best thing since sli...

What does it mean when you dream of a deceased loved one? Grief dreams evolve in many ways to help you deal with your grief and loss. Grief dreams can provide you with comfort, hope, and even answers to questions you may have.  Grief dreams are unique and don't end when you have stopped grieving. They can pop up at random moments in life, but can help us sometime to understand confusing situations or bring clarity when you are feeling stressed. Understanding our emotions is hard, and dreams can help showcase some of the blocks within us and help us heal. Dreams represent a waking life. When we're happy and joyful, we will have more positive dreams. When we're angry and negative, we will have more negative dreams. In this episode, Dr. Joshua Black, a leading researcher on grief dreams, talks about the significance of grief dreams in the grieving process. Dr. Joshua decided to research grief dreams after having his own dream about his deceased father, which ultimately changed his life.     Snapshot of the Key Points from the Episode: [01:59] Dr. Joshua's journey and how he started studying grief dreams  [04:38] Dr. Joshua shares his dream with his deceased father and how it changed his grief.

[11:30] Why do some of us have grief dreams, and others don't have them when grieving?  [13:21] Dr. Joshua's findings on factors that predict dreaming with the deceased  [15:03] How to increase your dream recall rate if you are interested  [18:29] Why do we have positive or negative grief dreams, and what do they represent in your waking life? [22:50] How do dreams help in the grieving process and showcase the blocks we are going through? [30:07] The power of being honest and where dreams fit in our emotions and grief.

In today's conversation, I'm joined by Cindy Hounsell. Cindy is the President of the Women's Institute for a Secure Retirement (WISER), a nonprofit working to help women secure retirement income and educate people about the inequities that disadvantage women when they retire.

She's also been named as an Influencer in Aging by PBS-Next Avenue, received a lifetime achievement award by the Plan Sponsor Council of America, and been named by Money magazine as one of its 40 Money Heroes. In our conversation, Cindy and I dive into the major shifts in women's finances and retirement today. We discuss the pros and cons of saving for retirement as a woman, how things are changing in the era of stay-at-home parents of both sexes, and what all women should know about creating a financial plan. In this podcast interview, you'll learn: How Cindy's own experience at an airline that froze pensions inspired her to launch a career in retirement. What you can do for your children and grandchildren to help them become more financially literate. Why it's so important to get your paperwork in place, no matter how good your relationship (or life) seems right now.

Today, I'm speaking with Chris Farrell. Chris is a leading expert on the subject of working into the years we once called traditional retirement. In his most recent book, Purpose and a Paycheck: Finding Meaning, Money, and Happiness in the Second Half of Life, he debunks the myth that aging populations are a burden on our economy–and demonstrates how “retirees” can create, innovate, and stay engaged.  You may have encountered Chris's work as a journalist for PBS Next Avenue and the Star Tribune, a contributor to Bloomberg Businessweek, The New York Times, Kiplinger's, and other publications. Or perhaps as a commentator on Marketplace Morning Report, or as the host of Conversations on the Creative Economy on Minnesota Public Radio. I'm a big fan of his work and thrilled to chat with him today. In this conversation, Chris shares the story of how he went from being a merchant seaman to getting his graduate degree at the London School of Economics, why aging populations aren't dead weight, and how retirees can discover newfound purpose–and make a difference–while contributing to the economy later in life. One more thing before we get started.

In this podcast interview, you'll learn: What led Chris to become so interested in writing about retirement, happiness, meaning, and purpose. How an aging population and a low birth rate are fundamentally shifting our economy. Why more people in their 50s and 60s are starting businesses now than ever before–and why so many people who opt for traditional retirement “unretire” within just a few years. How retirees can pass on knowledge to younger generations and leave behind a personal and professional legacy. The importance of budgeting for health care coverage for retirees looking to bridge the gap when retiring before age 60.

A wide-lens review of the year 2021 based on the reflections on the economy, with foresight into 2022. U.S. economic activity resurged in 2021 after a year marked by lockdowns, stay-in-place orders, and general uncertainty about the future. Economically, this rebound was fueled by a combination of monetary and fiscal stimulus, as well as firm consumer spending. However, it wouldn't be the “Covid” era without lingering uncertainty and constraints. against The second half of this year especially has seen an economy grappling with constraints across supply chains and rising price pressures. Lingering virus concerns, with the rise of different variants like the present Omicron variant, have compounded with still-elevated demand to push up inflation. Will we gain more clarity and certainty in 2022? Will 2022 be the year that the economy, and many of us along with it, settle into a new normal? Joining us to review the state of our economy in 2021, shed some light on what 2022 may hold, and provide insight into how that impacts us are CSB/SJU Economics Professor Louis Johnston, and renowned economist, Chris Farrell.

Hear how to re-think retirement during the pandemic During this coronavirus crisis, there is a vital need to recognize the humanity in the numbers. Remember, each statistic represents a real person. I invited Cal Halvorsen to join us again to talk about his perspectives on the next stage of life for older adults. (We first interviewed him in September, 2018 which you can listen to here.) In today's podcast, we talk about the abrupt changes this pandemic has created for seniors. And after it finally flattens and fades, how can we ensure that they can live safely and think about retirement, again? Much to learn here.Enjoy. Our older adults: perhaps vulnerable but still very vital Some of the news stories today emphasize, incorrectly, the toll of COVID-19 on older adults, particularly those with other health conditions. Yes, many older adults are getting very ill and dying. But so are a number of younger people, too. And the idea that we may have to sacrifice our elders for the future of our economy simply cannot be tolerated. Then there is the rapid spread of the virus among those in nursing homes or assisted living residences where they have gone to be safe and secure. Instead, they are in close quarters where the virus spreads easily and quickly. In our podcast, Cal and I discuss what might be the future of these residences. Would anyone want to go there after the horrible scenes we are witnessing today? If not, will seniors be able to age in place using telemedicine and remote sensors to help them do so? These are just a few of the important questions necessitating big changes coming out of this crisis. And finally, Cal and I dig into how to make sure that our 72 million aging Baby Boomers are able to deal with anxiety and loneliness while they distance themselves from potential carriers of the virus. Being alone has never been something desirable for older adults, or for anyone. It feels, for many, like a prison. How can they stay engaged?  All of these issues are taking their toll on the usual lives of Boomers, and in fact, all of us. It's time to re-think the entire idea of retirement With the bottoming out of the stock market and the loss of jobs affecting the future savings and income of older adults, there are going to be some real challenges for those who were planning on leaving the workplace and living off their savings. But, what if they used this crisis as a time to re-think their ideas about retiring and explore ways to stay engaged and even start their own businesses? Sure, this may require the economy to open back up and stabilize. Yet as well as massively disruptiving older people's lives, the pandemic may enable them to see opportunities they had ignored or never seen before. Think of the possibilities! We'll just have to wait and see, but it could be very exciting. Some background on Cal Halvorsen Cal J. Halvorsen, MSW, PhD, is an assistant professor at the Boston College School of Social Work and an inaugural member of the Encore Public Voices Fellowship, a partnership between the OpEd Project and Encore.org to increase the diversity of voices at the intersection of aging, longevity and social justice. His work examines aging societies and the need and desire for people past midlife to work past traditional retirement age, with particular emphasis on self-employment, entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship among older adults. Cal received his Master of Social Work degree from Washington University in St. Louis and his Bachelor of Arts in International Studies, with honors, from the University of Iowa.

According to a 2018 Stats-Canada report, over 30% of people aged 60 and above are working or are looking for work. The report also indicated that over 50% are working or looking for work out of necessity. Freedom 55 is becoming less and less of a reality as more people are now working past their 50s and 60s. To help us understand some of the reasons why many older adults choose to continue working even past retirement age, we have Chris Farrell. Chris is a senior economics contributor at Marketplace, an American radio program that focuses on economy, business, and the events that influence them. Chris is also an economics commentator for the Minnesota Public Radio as well as host of the series “Conversations on the Creative Economy.” He also writes for PBS Next Avenue and The Star Tribune. Chris has been in the industry for over 25 years and he definitely knows what he’s doing.

Richard Eisenberg, Managing Editor of PBS Next Avenue.Org and former Senior Editor of Money Magazine discusses how boomers are dealing with aging parents and their own retirement concerns.

You don't have to freeze your body. No need for bionic limbs. And you can hold off on eating mountains of kale (thank goodness). If you want to live forever, then focus on building a legacy via meaningful work with younger generations. Last month, I sat down for an hour with the man who is essentially the creator of the encore career movement. His name is Marc Freedman and he appropriately heads up an organization called Encore.org. Here’s a quick summary of some of his accomplishments: Marc is the winner of the 2018 Eisner Prize for Intergenerational Excellence; He was named a “Legend in Mentoring” by Mentoring.org; He was named an “Influencer in Aging” by PBS’ Next Avenue;  Marc is the author of five books including his latest work, “How To Live Forever: The Enduring Power of Connecting the Generations.” "How To Live Forever" gives dozens of fascinating examples of intergenerational experiences from across the United States and the globe. It lays out a road map for finding purpose and happiness later in life. Marc introduces us to a range of engaging characters successfully connecting, mentoring and collaborating with younger generations. My favorite adage from Freedman's book: "The real fountain of youth is the fountain with youth." I loved "How To Live Forever" and thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Marc. Today’s podcast is longer than our usual episodes but candidly the conversation was so rich in content it was just too good to cut down. DOWNLOAD EPISODE TRANSCRIPTDownload

Ashton Applewhite, named one of PBS Next Avenue’s Influencers in Aging and author of the breakaway new book, This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism, share her own personal experiences with ageism — defined as “treating a person differently on the basis of age" and discusses her work, which explores ageism’s destructive impact on individuals, our communities and our policies.Chronological age is often a key factor in decision-making about treatment for physical and mental health; or selection for housing, employment, or access to other opportunities, says Applewhite. Yet, she argues, age alone is a poor predictor and she pushes back on ageist assumptions that people within any given age group are all the same. They vary substantially in their capacities−and census data show growing diversity in every age group.Nevertheless, unfounded ageist stereotypes result in marginalization and discrimination against older people.This Chair Rocks does not simply identify the problem. It offers a wealth of ideas about how to counteract ageism. As Applewhite explored the subject, she discovered a clear upside: “The possibility that life could be more fun in your eighties had never crossed my mind…nor that such joyful clarity would be rooted in awareness — not denial — that time was short and therefore to be savored.”This talk, given on March 15, 2019, was hosted by Ashby Village and the UC Berkeley Retirement Center, who are committed to transforming aging in community. They hope this talk sparks interest in continuing an intergenerational conversation about collaborative efforts to build a community that works well for all ages.Read a transcript on Berkeley News.

Paul Irving is Chairman of the Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging and distinguished scholar in residence at the University of Southern California Davis School Of Gerontology. Paul spent much of his life as a corporate lawyer as chairman and CEO of Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, a law and consulting firm. He is also the author of “The Upside of Aging: How Long Life Is Changing the World of Health, Work, Innovation, Policy, and Purpose,” a Wall Street Journal expert panelist and contributor to PBS Next Avenue and Forbes. When he came to the end of his term as CEO he enrolled at Harvard to look at ‘something new, something interesting’. There, he was asked to do a research project on the impacts of population aging in cities in the U.S.  They came up with an idea about ranking U.S. cities, knowing how ranking systems attract interest and attention, and it was called “Best Cities for Successful Aging”. Eventually Paul became the president of the Milken Institute which is based in Santa Monica, although they have offices in Washington D.C., and Singapore. Each of these is involved in spreading both domestic and global prosperity and improving health. One of the things that the Institutes are now focused on is this question of how population aging will affect individuals, families, communities, businesses, and societies. Some of the trends Paul is seeing in the workforce include:   Across the world populations are much older Workforces are becoming more diverse Enhancement of opportunities for women over the last several decades, the increasing diversity and inclusion in leadership positions There is a risk of talent loss and talent shortage as a result of retirement   There is a very clear need for people to work longer and aspiration for people to work longer   The HR culture has become much more complex     As Paul points out, “we have about a billion people today over 60 in the world. By mid-century, that number will more than double, the number of people in their 60s in the United States will more than double. We have ten thousand people turning 65 a day in the US, and we are now at a point where there are more older adults than kids and teenagers in the world. So the bottom line is that we have a historically unprecedented demographic shift, unlike anything that humankind has seen since the beginning.”   The operating assumption is that older people are: Unwilling to learn, Unable to evolve, and Are less effective performers than the young people   The evidence is simply not there to back up those claims. They are ageist expectations that come from a fear of aging, a fear of death, a fear of physical change and a lack of recognition of the complementary skills of young people and old people. As Paul mentions, organizations can benefit from hiring people over 50, because they bring important things to the table including balance, judgement, wisdom, and experience. And several companies are specifically bringing in older employees for this reason. Companies like Airbnb, BMW, and Michelin have programs and incentives in place to make sure they they have employees ranging in age and experience because they understand that it is critical for their future success. What you will learn in this episode: What the Milken Institute does The impact of the aging workforce Examples of companies such as Airbnb, BMW, and Michelin who are bringing in older employees who can share their wisdom, experience and training What will happen to organizations not paying attention to this trend Paul’s advice for older workers How to create policies for older workers Contact: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulhirving/

Are people retiring earlier or later? What’s the retirement age in the US and how is it trending? In this episode of our retirement podcast, we talk with Catherine Collinson, CEO and President of non-profit Transamerica Institute and Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies. Catherine is a retirement and market trends expert and champion for Americans who are at risk of not achieving a financially secure retirement. Catherine shares insights from their research on the key trends driving change for both older workers and employers. Wise Quote: “…We see so much resilience among workers in terms of their expectations and looking beyond traditional retirement. Led by the Baby Boomers and followed by Gen X and Millennials, workers are transforming retirement into something that’s really new and different and exciting compared to previous generations. Most notably, is retirement is no longer a proposition in which work and time for enjoying life are a mutually exclusive proposition. Some workers even cite paid work as one of their retirement dreams, which is phenomenal. We would have never even asked that question a few years ago. We know that a lot of people want to work, but we never expected that three in 10 would actually cite some form of paid work as one of their dreams for their retirement.”   Retirement today continues to evolve.

Caregiving is an issue touching more lives today than you may realize. Today, an estimated 65 million Americans are in a caregiving role, and by 2030, there will be more people over the age of 65 than children under the age of five, creating an even greater need now to  prepare for the future. Author and CEO Sherri Snelling joins host Bill Coppel – Managing Director and Chief Client Growth Officer at First Clearing – to share her insights and discuss the opportunities financial advisors have to help clients prepare to be caregivers, and to plan for their own health and wellness. After personally watching her mother step into a caregiving role and later stepping into a caregiving role herself, Sherri Snelling's career in healthcare led her to run wellness programs that support caregivers in the workplace. The combination of these personal and professional experiences has made Sherri an expert on the topic of caregiving. Sherri explains the emotional and physical tolls caretaking has on the caregiver. She has found that preparation is extremely important – through conversations well in advance of someone's need for care and through intentional plans for the caregiver's personal health. Financial advisors can join this critical team dynamic by making it a part of their conversations and guiding their clients to emotionally and mentally prepare to be caregivers. In this episode, we'll explore: How the changing demographics in the U.S. are shifting towards an eldercare-focused society The need for employers to support caregiving employees The conversations that are necessary to prepare for caregiving The role financial advisors can play in preparing and supporting their clients as caregivers Self-care practices for caregivers  Sherri Snelling is the founder/CEO of Caregiving Club, a strategic consulting, impactful communications, partnership connections and creative content company focused on supporting the nation's 65 million family caregivers. She is the author of A Cast of Caregivers – Celebrity Stories to Help You Prepare to Care and is a contributing columnist on caregiving for PBS Next Avenue, Forbes.com, Huffington Post and USA Today.

In Episode 49, I'm chatting with Michelle Kinder, Executive Director of the Momentous Institute in Dallas, Texas. Michelle has worked in the field of children's mental health for more than 20 years and is a Licensed Professional Counselor. She graduated from Baylor University with a Bachelor’s degree in Theatre Arts and the University of Texas with a Master’s degree in Educational Psychology. Michelle is a fellow of the OpEd Project and has articles featured in TIME, Washington Post, Dallas Morning News, Mindful Magazine, Huffington Post, PBS’ Next Avenue, and Scary Mommy.  She is a nationally recognized speaker on trauma, parenting, social-emotional health, and emotionally intelligent leadership.  Michelle is a member of the Stagen Leadership Academy, the North Texas Chapter of the Young Presidents Organization (YPO) and the Leadership Dallas Alumni Association. Michelle grew up in Guatemala and is fluent in Spanish. She lives in Dallas, Texas with her husband, Patrick, and their two daughters, Maya and Sophia. In our interview, Michelle and I talk about the Changing the Odds conference (September 27-28, 2018 in Dallas, Texas), children's social-emotional health and well-being, and the resources available for parents through The Momentous Institute. Social-Emotional Health is the capacity to understand and manage emotions, reactions, and relationships. Three Things Kids Need for Social-Emotional Health We talk about what Michelle believes are the three most important things we need to address in order to ensure children's social-emotional health: Safe relationships. Capacity to self-regulate their emotions. Inspiring them for contribution over achievement. Quotes from Michelle "The materials that we put out really are meant to shift every single adult on the planet into a headspace where they can really see and feel and understand children and give them the experience that they are seen and felt and understood and capable and cherished." "We always tell parents and caregivers and teachers, if you do not know what to do if you're in a situation with a kid and we all are at some point where it's like, 'Holy cow, There's a possession taking place right now!' Start with just regulating your own nervous system. Just get your own self in check." "There's such a hyper-focus on individual achievement and that's an empty place for most of the population. There's a very small percentage of people who are filled because they achieve individually. They might be proud, but they're not filled up by that. So we spend a lot of time talking to children about a contribution being the inspiration and that that will fuel achievement, that none of us are in it for ourselves." "We're in it to be part of a community, safe relationships, helping kids learn how to self-regulate and then inspiring them for contribution over personal achievement." "In our education system and in our parenting, we're all a little overly captured by fear." "Energetically we show up differently when we are guided by love instead of fear."
