In our MA Minute we scan the article:      Medicare vs. Medicare Advantage; Ill health often leads to a plan switch! Bottom line: if one gets sick, one begins to see how MA plans can cause misery! In today's "Your Medicare Benefits" we learn how and when Medicare will help with Home Health Services. Client Robert from Virginia is unhappy with the level of Medical inflation that has caused his HDG rates to increase 19%. His home state has just enacted a birthday rule whereby Robert can change companies without having to provide evidence of good health. Birthday rules like this are spreading across the land. Insurance companies say they drive up their costs, leading to premium increases. On the other hand, they can allow overburdened people covered by expensive supplements to have an escape hatch.  Contact me at: DBJ@MLMMailbag.com (Most severe critic: A+)                   Visit us on: BabyBoomer.ORG Inspired by: "MEDICARE FOR THE LAZY MAN 2025; Simplest & Easiest Guide Ever!" on Amazon.com.

Housing prices are a hot topic, and trust me, it's not just idle chit-chat! In this episode, we dive deep into the intricate web of factors fueling the housing crisis. Eric G. takes us on a rollercoaster ride through the current housing market, where he breaks down the staggering mortgage rates hovering around 6.78%. It's a bit of a rollercoaster, folks! He emphasizes the role of the Federal Reserve, explaining how their decisions can either pump up those interest rates or give them a friendly little squeeze downwards, depending on economic conditions. Buckle up, because we're not just talking numbers; we're talking about real people—your friends, your family, maybe even you—who are feeling the pinch as homeownership slips further from reach. Eric doesn't just stop at the numbers; he digs into the nitty-gritty of urban growth boundaries in Oregon, which are like those annoying roadblocks that make getting to your destination a real hassle. He's got a point—while we all want to protect farmland and forests, we also need to address the desperate need for affordable housing. He paints a vivid picture of the housing landscape, where demand is skyrocketing, yet the supply is stifled, leading to prices that can make your jaw drop. And while we're on the topic of affordable housing, Eric challenges us to think critically about the solutions. Are we simply throwing money at the problem, or are we innovating and finding smarter ways to tackle the issue? As we move through this episode, Eric shares personal stories about young adults struggling to find homes and the bureaucratic hurdles they face. It's a wake-up call, reminding us that the housing crisis isn't just a statistic—it's a reality affecting real lives. So grab your headphones and get comfy; this isn't just another...

In this fascinating discussion with Sean Flood from Ride Today we chat about his journey in the ever-evolving world of mobility, from his early days in electric rideshare to his current ventures in Ireland. It's always interesting to hear how entrepreneurs navigate the ups and downs of an industry, especially one as dynamic as micro mobility. Sean's insights on hardware sales and subscription models really highlight the innovative spirit driving the sector forward.One of the key themes we explore is the impact of tariffs on the mobility industry. Sean brings a grounded perspective, emphasizing how tariffs can drive inflation and affect pricing. It's not just about the political side of things; it's about the real-world consequences for businesses and consumers. We also delve into the evolution of micro mobility, from the early days of scooter dumping to a more strategic and community-integrated approach. It seems like the industry is finally finding its footing, with less public resistance and more focus on sustainable growth.Looking ahead, we get into the exciting possibilities of robotics and even personal aerial transportation. It's wild to think about the future of mobility extending beyond traditional vehicles to include delivery bots and maybe even personal bubble devices. Sean's vision really paints a picture of how innovation and technology could transform the way we move goods and services. It's clear that the definition of mobility is expanding, and the potential for growth is immense.Takeaways*   Ascend automates premium financing and collections.*   Sean Flood has a long history in micro mobility.*   The move to Ireland was prompted by a family decision.*   New ventures in mobility focus on hardware sales and subscriptions.*   Tariffs can drive inflation and impact pricing in the mobility sector.*   Micro mobility is evolving with less public resistance.*   Innovation in mobility is expected to grow significantly.*   The definition of mobility is expanding to include goods transportation.*   Personal aerial transportation could be a future reality.*   Stability is crucial for entrepreneurs in the mobility space.*   Litigation has significantly increased post-COVID, making it challenging to analyze trends.*   Battery safety regulations are becoming crucial due to the rise in fires caused by unsafe products.Chapters*   00:00 Revolutionizing Payments in Insurance*   01:19 Sean Flood's Journey in Micro Mobility*   02:42 Transitioning to Ireland and New Ventures*   04:03 The Future of Mobility: Strategies and Innovations*   06:00 Impact of Tariffs on the Mobility Industry*   14:04 The Evolution of Micro Mobility*   18:21 The Future of Mobility: Robotics and Aerial Transportation*   21:11 Litigation Trends Post-COVID*   24:53 The Impact of Battery Safety Regulations*   26:10 Wine and Risk: A Personal Touch*   30:11 Navigating Tariffs and Trade Relations*   34:24 AI and the Future of Jobs*   38:09 Sovereign Wealth Funds: A New Frontier?*   44:01 Product Recalls and Consumer SafetyConnect with RiskCellar:Website:https://www.riskcellar.com/Sean Flood:Ride Today Linkedin:https://www.linkedin.com/company/ridetoday/?originalSubdomain=ieBrandon Schuh:Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61552710523314LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandon-stephen-schuh/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/schuhpapa/Nick Hartmann:LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickjhartmann/

The S&P 500 index's internal indicators signal a top may be in the making. After two years of returns in excess of 20%, the index trades at a pricey forward price/earnings ratio of 22x. Renewed inflation concerns could be a catalyst for a serious correction. We remain fully invested but contemplate reducing risk at some point in the year. While the consensus among Wall Street strategists is that the S&P will rise 12% this year, studies show their accuracy as a group is less than 50%. As a group, they've also never predicted a down year, while in fact one in four years has historically had a negative return.

From the BBC World Service: A new report from the European Central Bank and the European Union's insurance regulator calls for a big shake-up in Europe's climate insurance system. It’s planning for a new EU-wide insurance plan that would help protect businesses and homeowners from extreme weather and uses reinsurance, which pools risks, to make sure people are actually covered. Also: Concert merch, once a reliable profit source for performers, is becoming squeezed.
