In this Christmas episode, Jesse steps back from year-end checklists and market noise to tell a more personal story—one shaped by the "ghosts" of his financial past, present, and future. He begins with the early experiences that formed his relationship with money: a summer concession stand that taught him pricing, customer focus, and the power of simply telling people what you do; a first job cleaning bathrooms at a state park that clarified the difference between earning a paycheck and building a career; and the moment in his mid-20s when seeing real dollars in his 401(k) pulled him into a decade-long deep dive on personal finance, blogging, and eventually a full career change into wealth management. From there, he pivots into a transparent walkthrough of his current systems—how he and his wife structure savings, manage cash, use insurance, approach debt, track spending, and design an investment allocation that reflects real life rather than theory. He also shares three planning cases from this year that reveal the human side of financial advice: navigating retirement after a family death, unwinding concentrated stock risk for a high-earning executive, and giving one engineer the peace of mind to sleep through layoff fears. Looking ahead, Jesse reflects on where the industry is headed—AI-enabled tools, changing fee models, and a shift toward values-based planning—while outlining how he and his family think about the future with a firm grip on flexibility, priorities, and the fleeting years of raising young children. It's an intimate, thoughtful close to the year—less about spreadsheets and more about why financial planning matters in the life you're actually living. Key Takeaways: • Take time to seek out new opportunities. Putting yourself out there for advancement is one of the most straightforward ways to advance financially. • Getting "skin in the game" with real dollars in a 401(k) or investment account is often the catalyst for learning personal finance at a deeper level. • A blended approach to retirement savings (401(k), Roth IRA, HSA) builds both tax flexibility and long-term resilience. • Cash-management infrastructure—joint accounts, high-yield banks, and legacy accounts—matters less than ensuring clarity, shared access, and ease of use. • Tools like the state-run CHIP/Child Health Plus programs can dramatically reduce healthcare costs for families with children. • Strong personal finances create flexibility: the ability to enjoy life now while still protecting the future—especially during the irreplaceable years of raising children.

Andrew Giancola is the creator of MasterMoney.co and host of The Personal Finance Podcast, a top personal finance show doing over 400,000 downloads every month. He started with no money, no investing knowledge, and the same fears around asking for a raise most people have, and now teaches millions how to build real, lasting wealth through simple systems, smart debt strategies, and increasing income.​ On this episode we talk about: How Andrew went from $30,000-a-year financial analyst to business owner, real estate investor, and top personal finance podcaster.​ Why most people dramatically overcomplicate money—and how automating your finances can free up your time and mental energy.​ The “1–3–6 Method” for building your emergency fund and getting out of the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle.​ Why paying off high-interest credit card debt is a “pants-on-fire” emergency and how credit card APR really works against you.​ The fastest paths to increasing your income: raising your W‑2 salary, smart side hustles, and stacking high-value skills.​ Top 3 Takeaways Build a rock-solid foundation with Andrew's 1–3–6 Method: save one month of expenses, pay off high-interest debt (6%+), then grow to three and finally six months of essential expenses before going aggressive on investing.​ High-interest credit card debt is compound interest working against you; if you're carrying balances at 20–30% APR, paying them off should be your top financial priority.​ Long-term wealth is built in “the gap” between your income and expenses—so you must both manage money well and actively increase earnings through negotiating raises, job-hopping strategically, certifications, and scalable side hustles.​ Notable Quotes "Credit card debt is compound interest basically working against you."​ "Once you have your foundation in place, the biggest catalyst for most people is increasing their income."​ "Everything out there is an opportunity—you just have to be able to see it and then take advantage of it."​ Connect with Andrew Giancola: Website: MasterMoney.co​ ✖️✖️✖️✖️

On Jesse's 11th "Ask Me Anything" episode, he unpacks four questions that sit at the center of real-life financial decision-making. He starts with a grounded look at the 15-year vs. 30-year mortgage debate, cutting through rules of thumb to show how interest rates, liquidity, cash-flow, and even your personal comfort with debt shape the right choice far more than blanket advice ever could. From there, he turns to the under-discussed strategy behind Health Savings Accounts—why the "invest and reimburse later" approach works, when it stops working, and how the tax bomb of leaving HSA dollars to non-spouse heirs should change how listeners think about funding and spending those accounts in their 50s and beyond. In a detailed case study, Jesse walks through a listener's complex 2026 tax year involving rental-property capital gains, ACA cliffs, Social Security timing, and potential Roth conversions, revealing how layered tax rules—income brackets, capital gains stacking, depreciation recapture, and NIIT—interact in ways that can either save or silently cost retirees thousands. And finally, he tackles whether a diehard DIY investor or Boglehead should ever hire a financial planner, drawing a sharp distinction between the "Uncle Franks" who truly live and breathe this stuff and the "Nicks" who love markets but miss the deeper planning work. With clarity, nuance, and practical wisdom, Jesse shows listeners not just what to do, but how to think through the tradeoffs that define good long-term planning. Key Takeaways: • A 15-year mortgage saves significant interest, but the higher monthly payments reduce cash-flow flexibility and increase default risk. • A 30-year mortgage often wins mathematically when investors "invest the difference," thanks to potentially higher long-term market returns versus fixed loan rates. • Choosing a mortgage term is partly a psychological decision, not just a financial optimization. • HSA dollars become a tax trap if left to non-spouse heirs, who must treat the entire balance as taxable income in the year of inheritance. • Selling a rental property triggers both capital gains and depreciation recapture, which can dramatically increase taxable income in that year. • DIY investors vary widely—some are true experts, while others know just enough to make avoidable mistakes.

Most retirees want to spend as much as they can without having to worry about running out of money. Morningstar's State of Retirement Income research analyzes retirement spending strategies to determine the highest safe starting withdrawal rate for new retirees in 2026. Christine Benz, Morningstar's director of personal finance and retirement planning and co-host of The Long View podcast, breaks down the research and shares some ideas about how you can boost your retirement spending.What's a Safe Retirement Withdrawal Rate for 2026?On this episode:00:00:00 Welcome00:00:46 Each year, you and your colleagues producethis really comprehensive research about retirement income. And as part of that research, you try toidentify what a safe withdrawal rate will be for the year ahead. 00:01:59 What is that safe withdrawal percentage, and how did you arrive at that conclusion?00:02:41 The 4% rule often comes up in the conversation around retirement spending. How does that compare to your base case?00:03:30 I know there are some misperceptions about your retirement income research and what that safe withdrawal percentage means. What are they? 00:03:28 So, how should retirees use this research?00:04:51 The safe starting withdrawal rate that you found in your base case might feel a little low for some retirees. Are there other strategies that retirees can use to boost their spending?00:07:02 So, flexible strategies are best suited for retirees that are focused on maximizing their spending. 00:08:52 What kind of retiree would benefit from a more rigid strategy, like the fixed inflation-adjusted spending approach that you use in your base case?00:09:26 How does asset allocation come into play? Would a stock-heavy portfolio support a higher withdrawal rate in retirement?00:10:36 So far, we've focused on portfolio income strategies, but you also looked at nonportfolio income sources like annuities and Social Security. What did you find?00:13:34 It seems like there's some more nuance to the suggestion of delaying Social Security. Can you talk about that? 00:14:50 How about annuities? Can you discuss some of the key considerations that income-centric retirees should bear in mind?00:16:07 Studies have found that retirees don't actually spend the same amount over the course of their retirement. What does actual retirement spending tend to look like, and how might that affect a retiree's plans?00:17:59Let's talk about some scenarios that can throw off a retiree's plan. One might be a market downturn early in retirement. What kind of impact could that have on spending? 00:18:56 Another scenario might be retiring earlier than expected. What kind of implications would that have for safe withdrawals?00:20:26 What is one final takeaway from the research that you want retirees to come away with?  Watch more from Morningstar:How ETFs Help You Cut Your Tax BillTax-Loss Harvesting Isn't Just for Downturns.

Jesse sits down with Andy Hill—personal finance educator, podcast host, and creator of Marriage, Kids, and Money—for a candid conversation about building wealth while building a life you actually enjoy. Andy shares how a mix of financial discipline, intentional goal-setting, and family-centered values helped him and his wife pay off their mortgage by age 35 and achieve financial independence on their own terms. Together, they unpack why traditional FIRE goals often miss the human side of money, how to define "enough," and why generosity and purpose are essential parts of financial freedom. Andy also opens up about the shift from chasing net worth to focusing on net happiness, revealing the moment he realized money was no longer the main goal—but a tool for creating the life and impact he wanted most. Throughout, Jesse and Andy remind listeners that real wealth isn't about numbers—it's about freedom, joy, and using money to live aligned with what truly matters. Key Takeaways:• Financial freedom isn't just about money—it's about creating the life and relationships you truly want. • Family alignment around financial goals strengthens relationships and ensures everyone is moving in the same direction. • Andy's shift from "net worth" to "net happiness" redefined how he measures success and balance. • Andy emphasizes financial independence on your own terms, not a one-size-fits-all version of FIRE. • Clarity creates motivation—when your goals align with personal meaning, saving and investing feel purposeful. • Sustainability matters more than intensity—consistent, realistic habits lead to long-term financial wellness.
