In this episode of Not Today Cancer – Conversations After the Bell, host Jen Delvaux sits down with Tiffany Roth, a breast cancer survivor who opens up about her powerful journey from diagnosis through recovery and into survivorship. Tiffany shares the emotional impact of hearing the words “you have cancer,” the difficult decisions she faced during treatment, and how she embraced lifestyle changes to support her healing. Jen and Tiffany discuss the often-overlooked emotional toll of cancer, the anxiety that can follow treatment, and the strength found in community and shared experiences. Tiffany also reveals how her blog became both an outlet and a purpose—helping others navigate their own diagnoses. Whether you're currently in treatment, post-treatment, or supporting someone you love, Tiffany's story is a reminder that survivorship is more than just healing physically—it's about finding connection, purpose, and a new way forward.

What if I told you that not understanding occlusion is quietly sabotaging your treatment outcomes—and your confidence?In this week's 5 Minute Friday, I'm revisiting a topic that too many orthodontists dismiss: occlusion. After a recent conversation with Bruce McFarlane (and reflections on chats with legends like Tom Pitts and Ron Roncone), I felt compelled to spotlight how deeply impactful understanding occlusion truly is. If you think it's just for restorative docs—or you "get enough of it" through aligners—think again.I share insights from my own training under some of the best in the field, including three years studying at the University of Washington. I break down real-world ortho challenges like posterior open bites, centric relation issues, and how the NTI appliance is causing more chaos than most realize. This episode isn't a lecture—it's a wake-up call. If you're not fluent in occlusion, you're not fully equipped to protect your patients… or your practice.QUOTES“Once you understand occlusion, your life is going to change.” - Dr. Glenn Krieger“If you haven't taken a Roth course or been to Coyce or Spear, don't tell me you know occlusion.” - Dr. Glenn KriegerKey TakeawaysIntro (00:00)How orthodontists have dismissed occlusion over time (01:10)Jerry Schultz, PK Thomas, and foundational lessons in occlusion (02:30)Clinical consequences of posterior open bites (03:50)Why understanding TMJ and facial types still matters (04:40)The NTI appliance: a silent saboteur?

In this episode, Laurie Ingwersen from Allworth Financial breaks down the "Seven-Figure Dilemma" that many high-earning dentists face. She walks us through how cash balance plans let you contribute six figures annually while slashing your current tax bill.

Don and Tom rip apart a sponsored “news” piece from the Puget Sound Business Journal pushing a company called FISYN, which promises to buy investors out of their annuities and deliver a “safe” 12% tax-free return via raw Texas land. They expose the misleading fine print, the founder's disciplinary history, and the high-risk, illiquid nature of such private equity deals. Calls and questions cover long-term care insurance riders on annuities, portfolio allocation in deferred comp plans, Roth vs. tax-deferred placement for bonds, managing taxable brokerage cash vs. emergency funds, and dividend-vs.-total-return withdrawal strategies. They also clarify that QCDs can only come from IRAs (not 401(k)s or TSPs) unless funds are rolled over first. Throughout, they hammer home skepticism toward anything that sounds too good to be true, distrust of advertorial financial pitches, and the importance of planning before buying complex products. 1:35 Breaking the “golden handcuffs” of annuities—how FISYN's pitch hooks investors 3:20 The too-good-to-be-true promise: 12% returns, equity kicker, no volatility, tax-free 3:49 Founder's BrokerCheck record and lawsuits 5:15 Comparison to Woodbridge Ponzi scheme 6:32 The frying pan-to-fire swap: annuity to raw Texas land 7:37 Bonus shares and “free” Texas trip incentives 8:06 Critique of sponsored content posing as journalism 9:24 Reality check on raw land returns and costs 10:04 Broader issue: pay-to-play financial media 11:18 Caller Robert (TX): Fixed annuity with LTC rider—pros, cons, and better planning sequence 16:29 Insurance industry skepticism and “Wizards of Odds” nickname reveal 17:54 Caller John (WA): Deferred comp allocation—global, small-cap, emerging markets mix 19:18 Roth vs. tax-deferred bond placement and rebalancing flexibility 20:55 Revisiting the “Wizards of Odds” label for insurance companies 21:47 FISYN as a private equity example and why PE risk is often underestimated 23:35 High costs, valuation uncertainty, and past PE meltdowns 25:03 Total-loss potential in private equity investments 26:33 Caller Scott (NY): Using taxable brokerage for overflow cash—emergency fund priority and vehicle choice 30:34 Federal money market funds as short-term parking 31:54 Listener Thomas: Dividend withdrawals vs. total return strategy sustainability 34:43 Caller Pat: QCD rules—only from IRAs, rollover options, and who makes the rules 37:30 Paul Merriman “10 Myths, Lies, and Mistakes” episode plug 38:46 Podcast chart ranking and listener thanks Learn more about your ad choices.

David starts by talking about the apocalyptic headwinds facing Social Security and Medicare and what it means for your retirement plan. The Social Security and Medicare trust funds are projected to be insolvent by 2033, with the combined Social Security trust fund gone by 2034. David explains why this isn't just a distant problem: Without intervention, roughly 70 million Americans will face major benefit cuts—23% for Social Security, 11% for Medicare. How this impacts you personally: If you're 59 today, you'll reach full retirement age right as the trust fund runs dry. If you're already retired, you may be affected in the next 8 years. David outlines the government's dilemma: Once the trust funds are depleted, benefits must be paid from incoming payroll taxes alone—which won't be enough to cover promised amounts. David shares why printing money isn't a fix. Social Security and Medicare are tied to inflation, so printing more money only drives costs up. Why taxing the rich is not the answer. Even if the government confiscated 100% of billionaire wealth, it would only fund the federal government for 11 months—not solve the long-term problem. David reveals what you can do now. Start saving as much as you can today. Even a small increase—automated every 6 months—can plug the future gap in your benefits. How to use tax-free accounts strategically. Roth IRAs, Roth 401(k)s, and properly structured life insurance can help shield your retirement from rising taxes. David explains that Roth withdrawals don't count as provisional income—keeping your Social Security potentially 100% tax-free. How to soften the blow of benefit cuts: Keeping your Social Security tax-free preserves more of your income and helps offset reductions in government programs. With Trump's tax cuts possibly extended, you could have until 2033 to shift your retirement savings while tax rates remain historically low. How to avoid future tax pain: David recommends shifting to tax-free accounts slowly enough to avoid “tax bracket heartburn,” but fast enough to finish before tax rates rise. Why aiming for the 0% tax bracket matters: If tax rates double in the future, two times zero is still zero. The less taxable income you have, the more secure your retirement.

Nick Hopwood, Certified Financial Planner and Founder of Peak Wealth, shares key insights on the current financial landscape, highlighting that the market now predicts an 80% chance of a Federal Reserve rate cut next month, even as upcoming inflation data is expected to settle around 2.7%. He notes that 15% of Nvidia and AMD chip sales in China will now be redirected to the U.S. Treasury, while stock buybacks are on track to hit an all-time high this year. Despite August typically bringing negative surprises, this year shows extreme complacency with the VIX volatility index below 16, indicating low market volatility. Hopwood also critiques the Bureau of Labor Statistics for inaccuracies, pointing out that last month's jobs numbers were significantly overstated by 258,000.

In this episode of Protect Your Assets, David Hollander explains how Roth conversions work, the benefits and risks in today’s tax environment, and strategies to determine the right amount to convert.

Drones are becoming a bigger and more important tool in production agriculture. Kiley Allan finds out about the diverse applications they can assist with from Julia Guerra, Solutions Architect and a licensed drone pilot at FlyGuys. He says there's a multitude of ways farmers can use drones to provide supplemental information to their operations. He also says this technology can help not only in row crop management, but livestock operations too.Dangerous temperatures and humidity ahead for the weekend. Stu Muck says the only bright spot is the possibility of some rain moving in as soon as Saturday afternoon.Stephanie Hoff visits with Dawn Roth of Roth's Sugarbush in Cadott while at the Wisconsin State Fair in West Allis. Dawn chairs the Wisconsin Maple Syrup Association's booth in the Wisconsin Products Pavilion. She tells us about the tasty treats they have in store for fairgoers as they taste their way through Wisconsin agriculture -- the dollars support homegrown syrup and young producers.While the Wisconsin wheat harvest rolls on, there's another crop being harvested you might have missed. Mint! Richard Gumz of Gumz Farms shares what the start of mint harvest has provided. They are seeing a decrease in oil production this harvest season. While they are exploring other possibilities, they suspect the cloudy days in early July, as well as the smoke haze, greatly affected sunlight penetration. It will be a matter of time (7-10 days) to determine if it changes throughout the remainder of the season. Kiley Allan has the details.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Personal Finance Podcast, we are going to answer questions on this Money Q&A about she's 64, broke, and wants to day trade - Here's What I'd Tell Her. Today we are going to answer these questions: Should my 67-year-old mom take a $100K lump sum pension or $720/month for life — and what should she do with her 401(k) and HSA? How does tax loss harvesting actually work — and is it worth doing? We found our dream home, but the seller won't move out for months. How do we buy the house without becoming homeless in the process? Why use a high-yield savings account for emergencies instead of a brokerage? And how do retirement rules actually work with Roth vs. Traditional contributions? My 64-year-old mom is thinking about day trading to catch up for retirement. She's been a single caregiver her whole life. What should someone in her position actually do to build financial security? I'm 47, contribute 15% to my 401(k), and have no Roth savings. Should I cut my 401(k) down to the match and start maxing out a Roth IRA to create tax-free income in retirement? How Andrew Can Help You: Listen to The Business Show here.

Jesse tackles six thoughtful listener questions spanning a range of personal finance topics. He begins with a question about using Social Security and pension payments as a means to replace bonds in a retirement portfolio. Why do we own bonds, anyway? Then Jesse dives into long-term care insurance, a common sticky topic for aging retirees. Do they need to earmark dollars for long-term care? Next, he covers the taxation and distributions of inheritance assets, including sub-topics like probate, beneficiaries, trusts, and general estate planning tactics. He then covers equity compensation, breaking down RSUs, ISOs, NSOs, and ESPPs, and offers best practices for tax planning, diversification, and aligning with long-term goals. Mike then asks whether to invest $200,000 in cash currently sitting in a money market fund; Jesse outlines rational reasons for holding cash but warns against market timing, instead recommending a disciplined monthly investment plan. Finally, Paul inquires about the interaction between RMDs and sequence of returns risk, and Jesse reassures that while the concern is valid, proper planning—including Roth conversions, diversified withdrawals, and long-term strategy—can neutralize the potential damage. Key Takeaways: • Diversify your exposure—holding too much company stock can increase risk, so it's often wise to sell and reinvest elsewhere once vesting or exercise occurs. • Paying off a mortgage early is more about peace of mind than maximizing returns—there's emotional value in being debt-free. • Flexibility and control often make 529s a better choice, but UTMAs can be useful for broader non-educational goals. • Planning ahead can reduce reliance on penalties or rigid strategies—consider building a taxable or Roth account alongside retirement funds. • Investors tend to lose more trying to time downturns than they do by staying invested through them. • Your plan should balance growth and stability, aiming to avoid forced sales in down markets while still meeting long-term goals.

Don and Tom open the show with a lighthearted reminder that money doesn't sleep—so neither do they. They dive into a New York Times article featuring Goldman Sachs researchers who identify five patterns that influence retirement accounts and market behavior. The duo emphasizes that while market predictions are near-impossible, understanding these patterns can inform better investor behavior—particularly the value of diversification. Listener questions cover whether you still need a financial advisor with a $2 million DIY retirement portfolio, the logic behind using a Roth as an emergency fund, tax-efficient asset liquidation, and Washington State's retirement target-date fund asset mix. A politically charged final call touches on concerns about data integrity at the Bureau of Labor Statistics and its potential market impact. 0:04 Markets don't rest—so why should financial advice? 1:07 What really drives your retirement account? 2:20 Five market-moving forces from Goldman Sachs/NYT 3:50 Surprise events, political chaos, and market reactions 5:34 Can you predict the market?

With Don out, Tom Cock and advisor Roxy Butner tackle the increasingly hot question: should you trust a human or a machine with your money? They dig into two recent studies—one showing AI beating most fund managers, and another suggesting no long-term winner at all.
