Podcasts about retire

At 21, Cody Berman appeared on ChooseFI as a college student discovering financial independence. Three years later, he retired at 26. Now 30 with a $5 million net worth, he's back to reveal exactly how he compressed a decades-long journey into a three-year sprint—and why the same principles work whether you're 25 or 55. The Journey from 22 to FI at 26 00:05:30 Cody's path to financial independence was methodical and aggressive. Between ages 22 and 25, he experimented with over 20 side hustles, scaling his income from $96K to more than $400K annually. The key? He kept expenses locked at just $24K per year—creating a massive gap of $625K over three years. That gap fueled three wealth-building engines: $500K in stock market investments (VOO, VTSAX, VTI) 13 rental properties generating $3,700/month in passive income Digital products businesses producing $10K/month By his 26th birthday, Cody had achieved "cashflow FI"—his passive income streams covered living expenses without touching his investment portfolio. The Psychology of Financial Independence 00:18:00 Brad and Cody explore why some people achieve FI while others with similar incomes stay stuck. The answer isn't math—it's psychology and awareness. Cody attributes his success to having a clear destination. When you know exactly where you're going and why it matters, spending $100 on something that doesn't serve that destination becomes harder than saying no. The infamous "second marshmallow" experiment demonstrates this: delaying gratification becomes easier when you're aware of what you're trading for. As Cody puts it: "Earn more, spend less, invest the gap. Very simple. That is financial independence in a nutshell." Passive Income Reality Check 00:28:00 Let's demolish the myth of truly passive income. Cody manages 13 rental properties—but spends just 4-5 hours per month on them. This represents the spectrum of passive income: not zero effort, but minimal effort relative to the returns. The secret? Working in seasons rather than constant hustle mode. Some months require more attention (tenant turnover, maintenance issues), while others are nearly hands-off. Cody's businesses also follow this pattern—periods of intense development followed by relative autopilot. Brad reinforces this with math: "Every $100 a month you can cut out of your budget is $30,000 less you need in your FI number." Over 20 years, that $100/month compounds to $60K invested. That's a $90K swing from a single optimization. Designing the Perfect Tuesday 00:42:00 Forget exotic vacations—FI is about winning on a random Tuesday. Cody and Lauren's ideal weekday reveals what financial independence actually looks like: Morning: Wake naturally, coffee together, workout (him: gym; her: Pilates), shower, work on creative projects they enjoy Midday: Lunch together, afternoon walk in their neighborhood, separate time for individual pursuits Evening: Dinner together, reading, quality time before bed Nothing dramatic. No yachts. Just complete autonomy over every hour of a normal day. They maintain this through monthly alignment meetings—typically at a restaurant over a nice meal—covering: Money and real estate Health and fitness Travel plans Relationships (with a safe space to address concerns) Friends and family A rotating category Goals for the next month They also record an annual video reviewing the year, creating a time capsule of their journey. Post-FI Life and the Book 00:58:00 What actually happens when you achieve FI? Cody shares the uncomfortable truth: "Anything that you say that you want to do and that you don't do is a Cody problem. Before FI, you can blame things on time. You can blame things on money." When those excuses disappear, you're left facing yourself. That can be liberating and terrifying. His new book, Retire by Thirty, addresses this and more. Like Tim Ferriss's The Four Hour Workweek, the title is provocative but the principles are universal. Whether you compress your FI journey from 50-55, 33…

Not everyone gets into real estate investing when conditions are perfect. Some, like our next guest, get in because they have no other choice. The path Brent Beard was on just wasn't cutting it anymore–especially when people were depending on him. If your back's against the wall and you want to build a better life for your family, rental properties could be the answer! Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Brent is a real estate agent in training and investor in the Kansas City area who bought his first duplex in 2025. He did it while working a full-time W-2 job, serving in the National Guard, studying for his real estate licence, and raising his granddaughter. Owning rental properties wasn't always on Brent's radar,  but last July, he picked up a book that changed his whole philosophy. Despite starting in his 40s, Brent has closed on his first deal and is aiming to retire in 10 years! Brent isn't here with a polished success story, but a real one. He dives into the property tax mistake nobody warned him about that nearly doubled his bill overnight, the buy box he had to abandon to find a deal that actually cash flowed, and the one thing he wishes someone had told him before he closed! If you have a full schedule, real responsibilities, and every reason to keep putting real estate on the back burner, Brent's story is proof that the biggest mistake is simply not starting! In This Episode We Cover What finally pushed Brent to take action on his first real estate deal Juggling a W-2 job, military service, and real estate without dropping the ball The rookie-friendly tools and processes Brent used to analyze his first duplex The property tax mistake that nearly doubled Brent's bill (and what to check before you close!) The huge investing advantages you get by becoming a real estate agent And So Much More!

Episode 3609: Darrow Kirkpatrick explores the complex question of how much wealth parents should leave to their children, weighing the benefits of financial security against the risks of entitlement and diminished purpose. He argues that thoughtful legacy planning, open family communication, and strategic giving during life can create a healthier balance between supporting future generations and preserving meaningful, independent lives. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.caniretireyet.com/how-much-should-you-leave-to-your-kids/ Quotes to ponder: "23% of pre-retirees would ideally like to spend all of their savings and let their children fend for themselves. In contrast, a mere 9% say they want to save as much money as possible to pass on to the next generation." "Many people feel an obligation to preserve and pass on at least the principal they've inherited to future generations, rather than consuming it themselves." "The sense of entitlement that comes from unearned wealth can stunt growth, subvert meaning, and contribute to depression and destructive behavior."

At 63, David has $4 million saved. Two advisors have told him he's ready to retire, and every Monte Carlo simulation agrees... but he still can't bring himself to do it. "I'm no longer being smart," he admits. "I'm just scared to pull the trigger." The uncomfortable part is that no number may fix this, because what's holding David back was never on the spreadsheet. In this episode, I'm joined by Daniel Crosby, Ph.D. — a psychologist and behavioral finance expert — to answer listener questions about the part of retirement the math can't solve.  You'll learn: → How to spend in retirement so the enjoyment doesn't wear off so fast → A 3-part framework for putting your money where it creates the most happiness → When changing your plan is wise, and when it's just reacting to noise → The 2 questions to ask when you're financially ready but still can't pull the trigger → What actually moves the 40% of your happiness that's within your control By the end, you'll have a clearer way to separate a plan that works on paper from a retirement you actually feel ready to live. ***

What can the largest IPO in history to date teach everyday investors about building long-term wealth? The recent public offering of SpaceX captured headlines around the world, generating excitement, speculation, and a healthy dose of fear of missing out. While rockets, space exploration, and ambitious visions for the future make for fascinating conversation, the real lessons for investors go far beyond the company itself. In this episode of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons examines the historic SpaceX IPO through the lens of investor behavior, market psychology, and long-term financial planning. He explores why liquidity events matter, how emotions like FOMO and euphoria can influence decision making, and what investors should consider before chasing the latest market trend. Darryl also discusses the role of diversification, the mechanics of index investing, and why maintaining a disciplined investment strategy remains critical even during moments of market excitement. Whether you're intrigued by the future of space exploration or simply wondering if you should invest in the next big opportunity, this episode offers practical insights that can help you make more informed financial decisions. You'll learn: • What an IPO is and why liquidity events are important for investors and companies. • How fear of missing out can lead to costly investment mistakes. • Why euphoria and panic are closely related emotions in the investing world. • How large public companies eventually become part of diversified portfolios and market indexes. • The role capitalism plays in funding innovation and entrepreneurial vision. • Key questions every investor should ask before purchasing an individual stock. • Why diversification remains one of the most effective tools for managing risk. If you've ever wondered whether you should chase the latest investment opportunity or stay focused on your long-term plan, this episode provides a valuable perspective on balancing excitement with discipline and keeping your financial goals front and center.

#726: Hey, we're mixing it up today with a super deep dive. We normally go fairly deep on this show, but today we're going even deeper and turning one caller's question into a case study. Download the Four Cornerstone Worksheet to follow along: ⁠www.affordanything.com/cornerstone⁠ An anonymous caller is reevaluating their finances after a series of health challenges, caregiving responsibilities, and major life changes. With most of their wealth tied up in retirement accounts, they're wondering how to balance tax advantages against the need for greater flexibility and access to their money. We spend most of the episode answering this question in deep detail. At the end of the episode, we talk to another caller whose HOA hit her with a massive unexpected bill. She bought into an HOA, turned her former home into a rental, and years later was hit with a surprise $15,000 special assessment—with only months to pay and no payment plan available. Now she's wondering why the risks of HOA ownership, especially the possibility of massive special assessments, aren't discussed more often—and what prospective buyers should know before purchasing in an HOA community.” We'll dig into that in today's episode.

It's a very difficult decision to make whether you are a professional athlete or a practising politician. When to retire. How do you decide the time has come for you? That's one of the questions for James Moore and Gerald Butts during their latest "conversation" right here on The Bridge. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This week, I'm tackling a question that's on the minds of many investors: How safe is your money with major brokerage firms like Fidelity and Charles Schwab? In light of recent high-profile bank collapses and widespread concerns about financial security, I discuss how banks and brokerage firms operate differently, what protections exist for your investments, and what would happen if a major brokerage firm were to collapse. Whether you're considering how best to safeguard your assets or wondering about the real risks of brokerage failures, this episode will provide the clarity and peace of mind you need for your retirement planning.   You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... 00:00 Bank failures and investor concerns 05:58 Protecting your money in banks 09:18 Discussing investment safeguards 12:08 Brokerage account safety reassurance 13:08 Should you consolidate your broker accounts?   Why Investors Worry   It's natural for investors to worry about the safety of their money, especially after the events of 2023, when several banks—Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, First Republic Bank, and Citizens Bank—collapsed, shaking public confidence in U.S. financial institutions. Even rumors and social media speculation about potential trouble at a major brokerage like Schwab can fuel anxiety among clients and investors.   How Banks Actually Work: Your Money Becomes the Bank's Money When you deposit money in a bank, you're essentially lending money to that institution. The bank can then use those deposits to fund loans, mortgages, and other investments. This works well—until poor investments or insufficient collateral put depositor money at risk, which is exactly what happened with Silicon Valley Bank following its risky bets on long-term treasuries. If a bank collapses, customers may lose deposits above the FDIC insurance limit, which is $250,000 per account owner. Brokerage Accounts: A Different—and Safer—Model Brokerage firms like Charles Schwab and Fidelity operate under a different structure that provides a stronger layer of legal protection for client assets. Here's the key distinction: The assets in your brokerage account—stocks, bonds, mutual funds—are not the brokerage firm's property. They are held in custody, separate from company assets, and protected by a legal firewall. If Schwab or Fidelity collapsed, only the company's assets—like buildings and offices—would be at risk, not the assets in client brokerage accounts. Those client assets are held in separate custodial accounts and cannot be used to pay the firm's creditors. It's a little like using a storage facility: you lock up your investments, and nobody (including the brokerage firm) can access those contents for its own purposes.   What Happens During a Brokerage Collapse? If a major brokerage like Schwab were to fail, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) would step in. SIPC protection covers up to $500,000 per customer, including up to $250,000 in cash. However, most brokerages, including Schwab and Fidelity, carry additional insurance beyond SIPC requirements. The SIPC acts much like a disaster relief agency: it verifies customer assets, ensures funds have not been misappropriated, and arranges to transfer accounts to another brokerage within days. The customer receives uninterrupted access to all their investments and holdings at the new firm.   Your Money Is Safer Than You Think The legal and operational structure of brokerage firms offers significant protection. Even in the unlikely event of a collapse, your investments would transfer intact to another brokerage. The only real risk would be investment market performance—not insolvency of the brokerage firm. It's even unnecessary to split your assets between brokerages purely out of safety concerns—it might simply make your finances harder to manage. Investor protections for brokerage accounts are robust. With legal safeguards, insurance protection, and established practices for handling firm failures, you can rest assured that your assets at firms like Schwab and Fidelity are secure—even in a worst-case scenario.   Resources Mentioned Retirement Readiness Review Subscribe to the Retire with Ryan YouTube Channel Download my entire book for FREE  Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Fidelity Charles Schwab   Connect With Morrissey Wealth Management  www.MorrisseyWealthManagement.com/contact Subscribe to Retire With Ryan

Most of us grow up thinking success means staying busy, staying strong, and never stopping. But what happens when the career that defined you is gone? Michael Kay spent decades as a financial planner and NYU instructor helping high achievers build wealth — until he realized the most important investments had nothing to do with portfolios. He's the host of the Chapter X Podcast and author of How to Craft Your Chapter X, and he's spent years guiding successful men through the emotional and psychological shift from career identity to a purposeful next chapter. He's been married to his college sweetheart Wendy since 1977, is a dad of two, and a grandfather of three. This conversation goes deep on the patterns we inherit from our fathers, what it actually means to listen instead of just waiting to respond, and why retirement without intention is a trap most men never see coming. If you've ever tied your worth to what you do instead of who you are, this one is for you. Timeline Summary [1:02] Larry introduces the June Alliance promo — signed copy of The Pursuit of Legendary Fatherhood plus three bonus courses for new members [3:01] Michael joins in studio, sharing what it means to be a dad and grandfather first [3:48] Larry invites Michael to describe growing up with a demanding, workaholic father who didn't spare physical discipline [5:29] Michael reflects on how watching his father — who had no model himself — taught him what he would never do with his own children [9:49] Michael shares what he learned from his father's dedication as a sixth-grade teacher who taught every student at their own reading level [10:42] Michael's musical upbringing — his uncle was good enough to play with Duke Ellington, and Michael took weekly lessons from a New York Philharmonic trumpeter at 14 [17:55] A butcher named Al Roth becomes a turning point — the first man Michael ever saw who loved his family openly, and what that lit up in him [22:31] Larry asks how Michael and Wendy have navigated 49 years of marriage, especially given the communication models neither of them grew up with [26:36] Michael breaks down how men and women process differently — and why creating space instead of rushing to solve is the real skill in marriage [29:47] What deep listening actually looks like in practice, and why a "yeah, but" response signals that no one was listening at all [34:26] The origin of "Chapter X" — and how an eighth-grade algebra class planted the idea that every next season of life is something to solve for [40:19] Why the book is not about money — it's about reclaiming the curious, unfinished person you were before your career became your identity [43:33] The eulogy exercise: Michael and Larry on why writing your own eulogy is one of the most powerful things a man can do to realign his actions with his values [47:37] The hard truth that 98% of daily activity often isn't in alignment with what you'd want said about you at the end [49:44] Michael tells his 50-years-younger self to stop taking himself so seriously, start listening better, and soften the edges Five Key Takeaways Nothing happens in a vacuum. The way your father treated you was shaped by everything that happened to him before you arrived. Understanding the roots of that behavior doesn't excuse it, but it changes how you carry it forward. You only break a cycle when something from outside enters your normal. For Michael, that was Al Roth — a marine turned butcher who loved his family loudly and openly. You can't change patterns you can't see, and sometimes it takes a single outside example to show you another way. Men and women don't process information the same way, and pretending otherwise is what creates most communication breakdowns. Allowing space, taking things in small chunks, and saying "let me think about that" are not signs of weakness — they're how you stop reacting and start responding. Retirement without intention is just drift. Most high-achieving men have never asked themselves who they are without the title. Chapter X isn't about winding down; it's about solving for what comes next before the career disappears and leaves a vacuum behind it. Your eulogy is your roadmap. What you want your spouse, your kids, your grandchildren to say about you at the end is the truest picture of what you actually value. The gap between that and how you spent last Tuesday is worth sitting with.

Journalists and politicians are honouring Robert Fife, who retired after 48 years. Known for his big scoops, Fife leveraged anonymous sources to hold the powerful accountable. But Fife's brand of “access journalism” also runs the risk of being used as a political tool.

“Age is the modality in which class is lived in America today.” — Samuel Moyn Yesterday we had 91-year-old Mordecai Kurz on the show. Tomorrow, it will be 84-year-old Sally Quinn. But today's guest, the Yale legal historian Samuel Moyn, has a bit of a problem with old people. His new book, Gerontocracy in America, argues that the old folks are hoarding power and wealth in America. For Moyn, Dylan's Sixties anthem of “Forever Young” has soured into today's reality of “Forever Old.” In some ways, it's hard to argue with Moyn's thesis. Donald Trump is the oldest elected US president in history. Congress has been ageing for decades — and several Democratic members died in the run-up to the One Big Beautiful Bill vote, thereby facilitating its passage. The progressive heroine Ruth Bader Ginsburg stayed on the Supreme Court through a pancreatic cancer diagnosis and died in office, handing the right a supermajority and the end of abortion rights. Clarence Thomas, the RBG of nutcase conservatism, is on track to become the longest-serving Supreme Court justice in US history. And then there's that alte kaker Joe Biden, former dodder-in-chief, the only pol who gives Trump a youthful glow. Even Bob Dylan — who I saw in all his morbid brilliance in Berkeley last week (“but me, I'm still on the road”) — just celebrated his 85th birthday. Forever old, America. Happy 250th. Five Takeaways •       What Is Gerontocracy? Not a Problem With Old People: Moyn is careful to distinguish gerontocracy from old people. He is in his mid-fifties and can't attack old people generally. His target is the system: the structural overrepresentation of old people in power, and the structural disadvantaging of the young that results. Old people can be great. Some are, some aren't — just like everyone else. The problem is that when we defer to old people automatically — as a system rather than as a judgement about individuals — we replicate their mistakes alongside their wisdom. And cognitive decline is real, as Biden proved. “Age is the modality in which class is lived in America today,” Moyn writes, riffing on Stuart Hall's formulation about race. •       The Congress, the Courts, and the Deaths That Passed the Bill: Trump is the oldest elected US president in history — and if JD Vance were to succeed him, Vance would be the youngest president since Teddy Roosevelt. But Moyn's focus goes beyond the presidency. Congress has aged dramatically: the average senator and representative are significantly older than at any point in US history, and there is now only one member of Congress in their thirties. Several Democratic members of the House died in the months before the One Big Beautiful Bill vote, facilitating its passage. The gerontocracy is quite literally voting itself into power through death. •       The RBG Problem: Selfishness and the Supreme Court: Moyn's account of Ruth Bader Ginsburg is unsparing. She had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer — one of the deadliest — and allegedly survived it. She had become a progressive icon, “Notorious RBG.” But she chose to stay on the court rather than retire under Obama, and she died in office in 2020, allowing Trump to appoint Amy Coney Barrett and hand the right a supermajority that ended abortion rights. Moyn's verdict: she was selfish. He is also careful to note that the system should not depend on individual virtue — there will always be selfish people. The system must be reformed so that selfish choices are no longer possible. •       The Framers Designed Gerontocracy Into the Constitution: One of Moyn's most striking historical arguments: the framers deliberately empowered old people. The age minimums for federal office (35 for the presidency, 30 for the Senate) excluded 70% of the population at the time. The Senate was named after the Roman senatus — literally “old men” — and the concept went back to the Spartan council of elders. Alexander Hamilton argued in the Federalist Papers that federal judges should serve until they were “dodering” because the alternative was too much popular power. The gerontocracy is not an accident. It was designed. •       The Solutions: Vote at Six, Retire at Sixty, Tax the Family Home: Moyn's solutions are deliberately radical. On voting: lower the age, as David Runciman advocates to six, and reduce the number of elections because evidence shows the more elections, the greater the elder dominance. On political office: age limits, youth cohorts. On the courts: mandatory retirement — this requires creative interpretation of the constitution rather than amendment. On the economy: higher taxes on inherited wealth and housing assets — an incremental tax for staying in a large house you no longer need. On the title of the paperback: Andrew suggests “Forever Old.” Moyn will credit him if it's chosen. About the Guest Samuel Moyn is the Kent Professor of Law and History at Yale University. He is the author of Gerontocracy in America: How the Old Are Hoarding Power and Wealth — and What to Do About It (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, June 16, 2026), Humane: How the United States Abandoned Peace and Reinvented War, Not Enough: Human Rights in an Unequal World, and The Last Utopia: Human Rights in History. He is co-host of the Digging a Hole podcast and a frequent contributor to The Nation, The New Republic, and The New York Times.

What if the most valuable financial gift you could give your children or grandchildren isn't money at all? Many families spend significant time thinking about inheritances, college savings plans, and investment accounts. While these tools can create opportunities for future generations, they are only part of the equation. The reality is that financial success is often shaped less by how much money someone receives and more by the habits, values, and behaviors they develop over time. In this episode of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons explores the difference between leaving an inheritance and leaving a legacy. Using the introduction of new government-funded investment accounts as a starting point, he explains why financial discipline, work ethic, and healthy money habits remain the true drivers of long-term financial success. Darryl shares practical lessons from his own experience as a parent, along with insights on how families can teach children to navigate money in a world filled with consumerism, emotional spending, and financial distractions. Whether you are raising young children, guiding teenagers, or helping grandchildren prepare for the future, this episode offers a thoughtful framework for building financial wisdom that can last for generations. You'll learn: • Why financial habits often matter more than financial gifts. • How education and inspiration work together to create lasting financial behaviors. • The importance of involving children in real-world money decisions and experiences. • Why different children learn about money in different ways. • How work ethic and responsibility contribute to long-term financial success. • Why emotions can be one of the biggest obstacles to making wise financial decisions. • Practical ways parents and grandparents can leave a lasting financial legacy. If you're a parent, grandparent, or anyone hoping to help the next generation develop a healthy relationship with money, this episode provides practical guidance on teaching financial responsibility, building character, and creating habits that can benefit families for years to come.

Retiring at 65 sounds safe until you look at one overlooked number: Healthy life expectancy. If the average American starts facing meaningful health limitations around the same age most people leave work, the biggest risk to your retirement might not be the market or your savings rate, it might be the shrinking window of time when you can actually do the things you dreamed about. That's the wake-up call we dig into, along with what to do before “later” turns into “too late.”We talk through the difference between being alive and truly living, using real retirement planning experience and global data to show why the United States lags other countries in healthy years. Then we get practical: how to treat health like a retirement account with simple, repeatable habits that protect mobility, independence, and confidence. Because a perfect financial plan on paper is meaningless if you can't travel, carry luggage, play with grandkids, or enjoy everyday freedom.On the money side, we challenge the drift of status quo planning and ask a question that changes everything: what would it take to retire at 55? That mindset exposes the levers that build financial independence, including spending less than you earn, avoiding lifestyle creep, protecting relationships, and building a portfolio that matches your real risk tolerance. We also unpack why asset allocation matters more than stock picking and how a written plan and steady guidance can keep you from panic decisions during market crashes.If you want more healthy years with real choices, hit subscribe, share this with someone who keeps saying “someday,” and leave a review so more people can find it.

When it comes to planning for retirement, Roth IRAs have gained widespread attention for their tax-advantaged status and the promise of tax-free withdrawals in retirement. Financial experts, YouTubers, and podcasters have been touting the benefits of contributing to or converting assets into Roth accounts for years. But an often-overlooked vehicle could empower you to manage your investments just as efficiently: the humble taxable brokerage account. Surprisingly, with the right strategy, you can even pay 0% capital gains tax, mirroring one of the biggest appeals of a Roth.    You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... 00:00 Overlooked benefits of after-tax brokerage accounts 02:29 Limitations of the Roth IRA 06:20 Tax implications of brokerage accounts 07:57 Tax benefits of growth stocks 13:14 Understanding Tax Brackets and Deductions 16:53 Inheritance rules for IRAs vs. brokerage accounts 17:44 Managing taxable brokerage accounts Understanding Taxable Brokerage Accounts A taxable brokerage account lets you invest in virtually anything: stocks, mutual funds, bonds, ETFs, and more. These accounts, however, are often dismissed when compared to their tax-advantaged counterparts because:   Annual Taxation: Every year, you pay tax on dividends, interest, and any realized gains. Ordinary Income Tax on Short-Term Gains and Interest: Holdings sold within one year and earned interest are taxed at your regular income rate. Potential for Long-Term Capital Gains Tax: Sales after more than one year are taxed at the long-term capital gains rate, which is typically lower.   When used strategically, they offer flexibility and powerful tax advantages.   Making Your Brokerage Account Behave Like a Roth The key to unlocking Roth-like benefits is understanding how and when taxes apply—and how to minimize them. Invest strategically and focus on growth over dividends. Choose investments that don't pay dividends, such as growth stocks or low-dividend index funds. No dividends mean no annual income to be taxed because gains are only taxed when you sell. You can also use Index Funds and ETFs, which usually distribute minimal dividends and capital gains, keeping annual taxes low. Avoid open-end mutual funds in taxable accounts, as they tend to generate capital gains every year, eroding long-term growth with recurring taxes.   Realizing 0% Capital Gains If your total taxable income (after deductions) stays within the 12% tax bracket—a figure that for 2026 is $50,400 for singles and $108,800 for married couples file jointly—you can sell appreciated assets and owe 0% in federal capital gains tax. It's wise to time withdrawals, plan major sales during years with little other income—such as early retirement or a gap year—to fall within the 0% bracket. Keep an eye on your other sources of income: IRA withdrawals, Social Security, and pensions count toward taxable income, potentially bumping gains into the taxable range.   Estate Planning Advantages Taxable accounts also offer:   Ability to Borrow: Take loans against your investments without triggering taxable events Step-Up in Cost Basis: Heirs inherit assets at their market value on your death, often eliminating capital gains on past appreciation—a feature that Roths don't fully replicate. By understanding how to structure and manage your taxable brokerage account, you can access strategic flexibility—not just in managing withdrawals, but in transferring wealth to future generations. The "secret" is simply knowing and applying the rules, with tax-aware investing and withdrawal strategies smoothing the way for potentially tax-free wealth growth and transfer.  Resources Mentioned Retirement Readiness Review Subscribe to the Retire with Ryan YouTube Channel Download my entire book for FREE    Connect With Morrissey Wealth Management  www.MorrisseyWealthManagement.com/contact Subscribe to Retire With Ryan

In this podcast we discuss the planning process that should be involved in orchestrating a long-term retirement income strategy. Accumulating money for retirement is important; but just as important is the withdrawal strategy throughout your retirement years. 

Don takes listeners on a journey through nearly four decades of investment advice, explaining how his thinking evolved from recommending active mutual funds in the 1980s to embracing index funds, factor investing, and eventually ETFs. Along the way, he and Tom discuss Vanguard's rise, Don's early relationship with Paul Merriman, the emergence of Dimensional Fund Advisors and Avantis, and why their recommendations have changed over time. They also address listener skepticism about fund recommendations, compare Avantis and Vanguard products, answer a tax-efficient portfolio rebalancing question from a retired couple, and debunk a marketing pitch for “layered income portfolios.”0:08 Don shares the story of his early days giving investment advice from Leadville, Colorado2:56 The active management era and why great fund managers were once considered essential3:52 Vanguard's early growth and the gradual acceptance of index investing5:38 Don discusses Vanguard sponsoring his radio show and maintaining disclosure transparency6:55 Paul Merriman introduces factor investing and Fama-French research9:10 Early Dimensional Fund Advisors portfolios and advisor-only access10:56 The rise of ETFs, Dimensional's hesitation, and Avantis' origins11:23 The 2010 ETF flash crash and why Tom and Don were initially cautious13:29 Why factor investing remains compelling despite uncertain future returns14:20 Addressing listener skepticism about Avantis recommendations16:07 Comparing AVUV and Vanguard VBR small-cap value funds17:44 Comparing AVGE and Vanguard VT global equity funds19:15 Clarifying compensation, conflicts of interest, and transparency21:27 Listener Anton asks about tax-efficient portfolio rebalancing in retirement26:03 Why holding bonds inside IRAs can improve tax efficiency27:23 Discussion of Roth conversion strategies and tax considerations30:20 Listener asks about “Layered Income Portfolios”31:05 Why income portfolio marketing pitches are often more sales than substanceQuestions?

Welcome back to Retirement Quick Tips. I'm your host, Ashley Micciche, and today's episode is a little different. There's no retirement topic, unless you consider my summer sabbatical a lesson in mini-retirements.  Instead, here's a quick update on what's happening with the podcast this summer. As many of you loyal listeners know, I am pregnant with my 5th child. Hard to believe myself, as I never grew up around a lot of other kids or siblings. I didn't babysit much, and I wasn't even sure I wanted to have kids until my husband and I decided we wanted to grow our family a couple years into our marriage. Since then we've been open to adding more children, and the good Lord has blessed us abundantly with now 5 children. And that 5th baby is coming very, very soon. My due date is June 11th, so by the time you listen to this episode, it's likely she's already arrived.  Which means that this summer, I'll be taking a break from recording new episodes for the podcast. New episodes are going to be on pause for a bit, and I'll be back in September with fresh content. September. Now, I know what you might be thinking. "Ashley, what am I supposed to do without my Retirement Quick Tips fix all summer?" Fear not! Here's what I want you to do. Head over to YouTube and subscribe to my channel. It's called Retire with Ashley, and I'm still going to be posting videos over there from time to time throughout the summer. So that's where you'll want to be if you want to stay connected and keep the retirement tips coming your way. You can search "Retire with Ashley" on YouTube and you'll find it. Subscribe, turn on the notifications, and you won't miss a thing. Lastly, thank you so much for listening.

It means a lot and I can't wait to be back with you again in September. Until then, take care & enjoy your summer. My name is Ashley Micciche and this is the Retirement Quick Tips Podcast

In this episode, I sit back down with Cody Berman, entrepreneur, real estate investor, and author of the book Retire by 30. Cody first came on the podcast in 2018 at 22 years old. By 25, he had reached financial independence through scalable online businesses, strategic real estate, and intentional spending. He quit a corporate banking job after seven months, tried over 30 side hustles, and grew his income from $96K to over $400K in three years, all while keeping expenses under $24,000 annually. His new book lays out a menu of approaches for reaching financial freedom, not a one-size-fits-all formula, but a roadmap built around your own values, income, and life stage. In this episode, Cody shares: Why defining your values and aligning them with your spending is the foundation of a truly free life His four-bucket framework for thinking about side hustles and which type created the most wealth The exact income, savings, and investment numbers that got him to financial independence at 25 How he and his wife kept lifestyle creep in check while still traveling and enjoying life What's New in the Paperback Edition of Your Journey to Financial Freedom: A bonus chapter: When Life Happens: Staying on the Path to Financial Freedom Through Setbacks, Shifts, and Uncertainty A book club and discussion guide with prompts, exercises, and action steps Updated corrections from the original hardcover Exclusive bonuses when you purchase the paperback, including: The Fire Starter Course The Find Your FIRE Number Worksheet Other related blog posts/links mentioned in this episode: Check out Cody's book: Retire by 30 Read the The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss Check out the FIRE Calc Get your paperback edition of Your Journey To Financial Freedom if you haven't already.
