Do you know why your health insurance premiums are paying for someone elses operation? The cost of insurances have shot up recently; Stats NZ figures show as at March last year house insurance was up almost 25%, contents insurance up about 28% and car insurance up almost 23% compared to the previous year. Some companies offering health insurance as part of employment packages are looking to ditch or downgrade their cover as costs go up. Southern Cross had about 955,000 members last financial year or about 60% of Aotearoa's health insurance market by customer numbers. Chief Sales and Marketing Officer Regan Savage spoke to Lisa Owen.
Mary Jo lays out why premiums belong in your budget—not on the back burner. Protecting your future shouldn't be an afterthought. Audio Production by Podsworth Media - https://podsworth.com

Oil prices rallied following Israeli attacks on Iranian nuclear and military targets, but just as quickly reversed after the US bombed three of Iran's nuclear enrichment facilities. War premiums were mostly erased after US President Donald Trump said Israel and Iran agreed to a ceasefire. Jeff Mower, director of Americas oil news, speaks about the price swings, US crude production growth, global shipping rates, and nuclear deal hopes with oil futures editor Chris van Moessner, policy editor Kate Winston and head of Americas freight markets Kristen Hays.

In Part 3 of Episode 271, Chris McGill (aka Chris_HOJ) joins Joe Poirot, Leighton Sheldon, and Jeremy to explore the nuances of card value in today's hobby. The conversation kicks off with the rising PSA 10 premiums and questions whether today's multipliers — often 5x, 10x, or more — are truly justified by the cards themselves. The panel dives into the psychology behind paying up for a label, how investor-driven logic has reshaped grading expectations, and whether lower-grade cards with better eye appeal are getting overlooked. We revisit the philosophy of buy the card, not the slab, asking how often that advice is followed versus just repeated. Other topics include how certain grading companies handle centering vs. surface, the “slippery slope” of overpaying for perfection, the difference between true scarcity and population scarcity, and the role of context when chasing high-grade copies of vintage or modern cards. Each week we tackle hot hobby headlines with a rotating panel of hobbyists, taking your questions and comments! We are likely to go into overtime so join us live grab your favorite beverage and snacks and bring your questions and comments as they will be in play.

Most countries have accumulated “huge debt loads that weigh on the entire system,” according to BlackRock Vice Chairman Philipp Hildebrand, who said there's a sense that rates are edging up. Hildebrand added that "sustained higher growth would be the best way to deal with the debt and deficit problems in combination with reasonable budgetary policy”. In an interview on The Pulse with Francine Lacqua, Hildebrand said "the last thing you want is questions around the sanctity of the sovereign signature”. When Moody’s Ratings downgraded the US in the middle of May — becoming the last of the three big credit rating companies to lower its ratings from the highest level — it warned that the US's fiscal deficit, government debt and interest burden would all rise over the coming years, the latest sign of growing fears about Washington’s fiscal position.

Earlier this week, a report by Daft.ie found that the average rent in Ireland has now exceeded €2,000 a month, which is almost 50% higher than it was before the Covid-19 pandemic.This, along with high insurance premiums, increasing TV and broadband prices, and the cost of nights out also rising means that low to mid-range earners have less and less disposable income available every month.Charlie Weston, Personal Finance Editor with the Irish Independent and Sarah McGuinness, Political Correspondent with the Irish Daily Mail joined Matt for an extended personal finance slot on Wednesday to discuss the financial difficulties that young people face today.Hit the ‘Play' button on this page to hear the conversation.

Recently, Bruce shared a story that perfectly illustrates unexpected life challenges—his basement flooded, turning a peaceful Easter weekend into an emergency cleanup session. Just as unexpected problems can flood your home, unanswered financial questions can flood your business strategy, especially questions like: "Can you deduct life insurance premiums?" https://www.youtube.com/live/crKKtLvZ44k Tax questions, much like sudden home repairs, can disrupt your carefully planned financial landscape. Whether it's water damage or unclear tax regulations, not addressing the problem can lead to costly mistakes down the road. Today, Bruce and I aim to clear up one of these significant financial uncertainties for business owners. Why Understanding Life Insurance Deductions MattersUnderstanding the Deductibility of Life Insurance PremiumsCan You Deduct Life Insurance PremiumsThe Supreme Court's Stance and Its ImplicationsStrategic Ways to Indirectly Deduct PremiumsAvoiding Short-Term Tax MistakesContracts vs. Accounts: Ensuring Long-Term CertaintyNavigating Complexity with Professional HelpThe Strategic Power of Life Insurance PremiumsBook A Strategy Call Why Understanding Life Insurance Deductions Matters The question "Can you deduct life insurance premiums?" isn't just a minor tax issue—it's central to building an efficient, effective, and robust financial strategy. Life insurance policies are powerful financial tools that, when used correctly, can significantly enhance your financial well-being. However, misunderstandings about their tax implications can lead to missed opportunities or even costly errors. In this detailed article, you'll gain clarity regarding the question "Can you deduct life insurance premiums?", the rationale behind IRS rulings, practical and legitimate strategies to indirectly achieve similar benefits, and the pitfalls to avoid in your quest for tax efficiency. By mastering these concepts, you'll be well-equipped to incorporate life insurance intelligently into your broader financial planning strategy. Understanding the Deductibility of Life Insurance Premiums Can You Deduct Life Insurance Premiums Bruce frequently encounters confusion among business owners about deducting life insurance premiums. Let's clear this up immediately: in most cases, you cannot directly deduct life insurance premiums from your taxes if the business owner benefits directly from the policy. The IRS views this scenario as lacking genuine "economic substance," as the policyholder ultimately recoups these premiums through a tax-free death benefit, meaning there's no real economic loss to justify a deduction. The Supreme Court's Stance and Its Implications Bruce highlighted a crucial Supreme Court ruling that set clear boundaries for tax deductions related to life insurance. This landmark decision explicitly stated that deducting premiums or interest on life insurance loans is generally not permissible when the insured party directly benefits. The reasoning is straightforward: since you or your estate will eventually receive these premiums back in the form of a tax-free death benefit, the premiums do not represent an actual financial loss or expense that justifies a tax deduction. Understanding this ruling can save you from potentially costly mistakes and help you align your tax strategies with IRS expectations. Strategic Ways to Indirectly Deduct Premiums Despite the restrictions, Bruce and I discussed legitimate and strategic methods to effectively reduce taxable income and indirectly finance life insurance premiums: Employing Family Members: Bruce pays his father for legitimate business-related marketing tasks. As his father falls into a lower tax bracket, this transaction reduces Bruce's taxable income and generates additional cash flow, indirectly supporting life insurance premium payments. Paying Your Children: Another powerful strategy is employing your children within your bus...

California regulators are allowing State Farm insurance to charge 17% more following this year's LA wildfires. State Farm says it needs the rate increase — on top of the 20% it got last year — because it's in financial distress following the fires. But the issue of higher premiums goes well beyond California. We'll hear more, then learn why there are concerns about the U.S. dollar remaining the world's reserve currency.

Join us as we explore the surprising similarities between life insurance premiums and mortgage payments, emphasizing how both offer long-term stability and equity growth. We're looking at the advantages of whole life insurance as a financial tool, from tax-free growth to death benefits, while comparing it to real estate investments and the peace of mind that comes with a fixed, guaranteed cost structure.

Premiums are rising. Insurers are leaving markets. But people keep building in risk-prone areas, and the climate disasters just keep coming. Can insurance markets adapt? In this episode, Shayle talks to Dr. Judd Boomhower, an assistant professor of economics at the University of California-San Diego and a faculty research fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research. He studies how insurance markets are reacting to climate change. Shayle and Judd cover topics like: Why insurers are limiting coverage in California, Florida, and other high-risk markets How disaster insurance, unlike auto or health insurance, faces a flood of claims all at the same time How catastrophe models (or “cat models” for short) work and why AI and other improvements struggle the solve the fundamental problem: a lack of historical data needed to predict future events The challenges of private “black-box” catastrophe models that can't be reviewed by third parties Reinsurance markets and why they're not attracting more capital to shore up insurers The pros and cons of parametric insurance, an emerging category of insurance products Undercapitalized “fly-by-night” insurers that risk insolvency and failing to pay out claim Recommended resources NBER: How Are Insurance Markets Adapting to Climate Change?

This episode has three chapters. Each one answers a key question, and, bottom line, it all adds up to action steps directly and indirectly for many, including plan sponsors probably, community leaders, and also hospital boards of directors. Here's the three chapters in sum. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Chapter 1: Are commercial insurance premiums rising faster than the inflation rate? And if so, is the employee portion of those premiums also rising, meaning a double whammy for employees' paychecks (ie, premium costs are getting bigger and bigger in an absolute sense, and also employees' relative share of those bigger costs is also bigger)? Spoiler alert: yes and yes. Chapter 2: What is the biggest reason for these premium increases? Like, if you look at the drivers of cost that underpin those rising premiums, what costs a lot that is making these premiums cost a lot? Spoiler alert: It's hospitals and the price increases at hospitals. And just in case anyone is wondering, this isn't, “Oh, chargemasters went up” or some kind of other tangential factor. We're talking about the revenue that hospitals are taking on services delivered has gone up and gone up way higher than the inflation rate. In fact, hospital costs have gone up over double the amount that premiums have gone up. Wait, what? That's a fact that Dr. Vivian Ho said today that threw my brain for a loop: Hospital costs have gone up over double the amount that premiums have gone up. Chapter 3: Is the reason that hospital prices have rocketed up as they have because the underlying costs these hospitals face are also going up way higher than the inflation rate? Like, for example, are nurses' salaries skyrocketing and doctors are getting paid a lot more than the inflation rate? Stuff like this. Too many eggs in the cafeteria. Way more charity care. Bottom line, is an increase in underlying costs the reason for rising hospital prices? Spoiler alert: no. No to all of the above. And I get into this deeply with Dr. Vivian Ho today. But before I do, I do just want to state with three underlines not all hospitals are the same. But yeah, you have many major consolidated hospitals crying about their, you know, “razor-thin margins” who are, it turns out, incentivizing their C-suites to do things that ultimately wind up raising prices. I saw a PowerPoint flying around—you may have seen it, too—that was apparently presented by a nonprofit hospital at JP Morgan, and it showed this nonprofit hospital with a 15.1% EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) in 2024. Not razor thin in my book. It's a, the boards of directors are structuring C-suite incentives in ways that ultimately will raise prices. If you want to dig in a little deeper on hospital boards and what they may be up to, listen to the show with Suhas Gondi, MD, MBA (EP404). Vivian Ho, PhD, my guest today, is a professor and faculty member at Rice University and Baylor College of Medicine. Her most major role these days is working on health policy at Baker Institute at Rice University. Her work there is at the national, state, and local levels conducting objective research that informs policymakers on how to improve healthcare. Today on the show, Professor Vivian Ho mentions research with Salpy Kanimian and Derek Jenkins, PhD. Alright, so just one quick sidebar before we get into the show. There is a lot going on with hospitals right now. So, before we kick in, let me just make one really important point. A hospital's contribution to medical research, like doing cancer clinical trials, is not the same as how a hospital serves or overcharges their community or makes decisions that increase or reduce their ability to improve the health and well-being of patients and members who wind up in or about the hospital. Huge, consolidated hospital networks can be doing great things that have great value and also, at the exact same time, kind of harmful things clinically and financially that negatively impact lots of Americans and doing all of that simultaneously. This is inarguable.

As wildfires, hurricanes, and floods repeatedly devastate areas of the U.S. a focus on the nationwide insurance crisis as premiums skyrocket and companies abandon entire communities leaving homeowners forced to choose between coverage and survival. The Los Angeles wildfires decimated tens of thousands of acres, killed at least 10, and forced the evacuation of more than 180,000 people Dr. Phil focuses on a devastating crisis that's hitting close to home. Homeowners in California and across the nation are left helpless and vulnerable as insurance premiums skyrocket, leaving many with a heartbreaking choice: pay for coverage or put food on the table. First, a woman whose parents nearly lost everything in the Los Angeles wildfires, she says it's a miracle that they didn't because no insurance company would cover them, and they were without insurance. Then, Dr. Phil speaks with Kristy and Michael, who know this reality all too well after losing two homes in the last six years to California wildfires. Now, they're trying to rebuild for the second time. Plus, Dr. Phil talks to Macie and Caleb, who couldn't afford flood insurance due to rising costs. When Hurricane Helene hit, they watched helplessly as floodwaters destroyed their forever home. Macie says it felt like a thief came in the night and stole everything. Dr. Phil also hears from Jamie, who was shocked when her home insurance was unexpectedly canceled due to wildfire risks. Now, her family lives in constant fear of losing everything. Dr. Phil will also speak with attorney at law Steven Bush who says that insurance companies are in it for the profit and offer tips for homeowners seeking coverage in these uncertain times.
