How can lessons from sports and psychology transform the way we lead, especially when the pressure is on? Kevin is joined by Sebastien Page to explore how high-performance mindsets from sports apply to leadership. They discuss how goal-induced blindness, where an intense focus on achieving goals can obscure ethical or practical considerations, impacts leaders and organizations. Sebastien shares how strong relationships, not fame or fortune, are the most significant predictors of long-term happiness and fulfillment. The episode also highlights a few of the eighteen principles from the book, including: Don't Die on Everest – The dangers of goal-induced blindness.

In 2005, Sebastien Page nearly died from a mysterious bacterial infection that doctors couldn't diagnose for a week. A single observant physician noticed cuts on his toes from running in wet terrain and connected the dots. The experience forced Page to confront mortality — and completely changed how he thinks about goals. Page, the chief investment officer at T. Rowe Price and author of The Psychology of Leadership, joins us to share why traditional goal-setting might be sabotaging your happiness. He explains how 80 percent of millennials say they just want to get rich, and 50 percent want to become famous. But research from Harvard's 80-year longitudinal study reveals something surprising: people who climbed the social ladder weren't meaningfully happier than those who struggled financially. The real predictor of long-term happiness? The quality of your relationships with others. We explore the dark side of goals through a concept called "goal-induced blindness." Page uses Mount Everest as an example — climbers have a 4 percent chance of dying, the same odds as eating four poisoned gummies out of 100. Yet people still attempt the summit because they become blinded by the goal itself. Page shares his own experience with goal-induced blindness during his demanding career in money management. The relentless travel and pressure contributed to his near-fatal infection in 2005. He learned that working less actually made him more productive. We dive into Page's framework called the "three Cs": core beliefs, curves, and control theory. Core beliefs are the filters through which you interpret the world — like whether you trust people or believe money should be spent versus saved. Curves refer to stress management, based on research showing optimal performance doesn't happen at zero stress. Control theory teaches you when to exercise "strategic patience" versus making quick decisions. Page also introduces the PERMA framework from positive psychology: positive emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment. He calls the last four "proteins for your soul," while positive emotions are more like a sugar high. The discussion covers practical applications for everything from hiring decisions to relationship choices, using mathematical concepts like net present value to make better life decisions.

Are you saving so much for retirement that it's squeezing your life today? In this episode, we're answering a smart viewer question about finding the right balance between preparing for the future and living fully in the present.   Important Links: Website: http://www.yourplanningpros.com Call: 844-707-7381   ----more---- Transcript:    Marc: Are you saving so much for retirement that it's squeezing the life today out of you? And in this episode, we're going to answer an interesting question from a listener about the right balance between future savings and living in the moment. Am I saving too much for retirement? Let's find out this week here on Plan With The Tax Man.   Hey, everybody. Welcome into the podcast. Thanks for hanging out with Tony and myself as we talk, investing, finance and retirement. Of course, Tony is a CPA, CFP, and an EA of 30 plus years and the big kahuna over there at Tax Doctor Inc. And if you guys got questions and need some help, reach out to him at yourplanningpros.com before you take any action from something, from our podcast or any others, you always want to check with a qualified professional with the experience to help you get to and through retirement. And that is Tony. So yourplanningpros.com or 844-707-7381. Tony, my friend, is there such a thing as saving too much for retirement? And let's talk about it. How you doing?   Tony Mauro: I'm doing good. It's post tax season and I figured this would be a good topic because we don't hear this that much, but it is possible to be doing too much of this.   Marc: Okay.   Tony Mauro: And normally we're always talking about saving more, saving more.   Marc: Right. Yeah, yeah. That's why I thought it was kind of an interesting question. So here's the question from the listener. He says, "My wife and I bring in about $200,000 a year." Very nice. I'm assuming obviously that's combined, wife and I.   Tony Mauro: Yeah.   Marc: And he says, "We max out our two 401Ks and HSA, a 457B and still put some into brokerage accounts." Very cool. Right? He's doing a very good job.   Tony Mauro: That's good.   Marc: Yeah.   Tony Mauro: Yeah.   Marc: He said, "Yet I still feel like, honestly, sometimes we live paycheck to paycheck." Very interesting. "We also are not living in our dream home, just FYI, because I've prioritized retirement savings versus a bigger chunk down for a down payment or a mortgage or whatever. So my question is are we saving too much for retirement? I feel like it would be nice to live a little bit more in the moment." So that's the question, Tony. So, I mean, the first thing that jumps out to me is does this gentleman have a plan because... or is because we've been kind of beat up in the head to say save, save, save, like you just said a minute ago... Has he been doing all that without really truly knowing what his numbers look like?   Tony Mauro: Exactly. And that's what comes to my mind, is if you're asking this question, obviously you must not have a plan other than-   Marc: Save.   Tony Mauro: ... the only plan is I'm just saving, saving, saving.   Marc: Right, right.   Tony Mauro: And I think if we zoom out a little bit, the thing is, well, there's not a whole lot of risk for over-saving, but there can be some because you're feeling like you're feeling.   Marc: Yeah.   Tony Mauro: In other words, you feel like you're not living enough, you're making maybe too many sacrifices. And so it's not maybe a financial risk, but it's an emotional one for sure.   Marc: Right. Okay. Yeah, yeah. That makes sense. Well, we've got this... and let me know what you think about this. So I guess the question for the listener would be how can you tell, right? Without coming in, sitting down with a qualified professional, obviously running the numbers. That's certainly going to be the easiest way to do it.   Tony Mauro: Right.   Marc: But how can you tell if you're ahead of schedule financially? What do you think about those online benchmarks and online things that you can use? Like we've got one from T. Rowe Price here. We'll throw a link into the show notes description this week if people want to go check that out for themselves. Just click on the link. But it gives you that... How much do you have from your salary going here and there and that kind of stuff. Do those things, are they helpful?   Tony Mauro: I think they're helpful. I mean, if somebody's just asking me off the cuff, I point them to those types of things just as a benchmark.   Marc: Okay.   Tony Mauro: I always tell them, keep in mind benchmark means benchmark and if you really want to narrow it down for you specifically, that's when I think you need a full-fledged plan because I think that's what's really going to help you the most, but at least it can get you started.   Marc: Yeah, I mean, it's like the back of the napkin math when you're doing how much withdrawal rate and that kind of thing. It gets you kind of a launching pad. And, Tony, you and I are about the same age. We heard growing up we needed to put 10% away in order to be ready for retirement. Generations now. I mean, my daughter, she's 28, so she's being told 15% and even any kids that are like 20 now are being told maybe 20%. Right?   Tony Mauro: Right. Yeah.   Marc: So how do you kind of balance that paycheck to paycheck feeling in life? I mean, it's tough.   Tony Mauro: It is tough. And that's why having a moving and active, live, plan is going to help you the most because everybody's going to be different. I think that depending on what you want, long term, is going to determine that percentage.   Marc: Right.   Tony Mauro: And I think just throw a blanket out there, it's probably a little too presumptuous there. But I think with the younger people, 20% seems awfully strong to me.   Marc: Well, it seems tough to do, right?   Tony Mauro: Yeah. And very tough to do for the young people if we told them that, they'd really have to... I mean they would definitely be feeling like this if they were trying to save 25%, something like that.   Marc: Right. Yeah. And live. Right? Of course.   Tony Mauro: And live, yeah.   Marc: Yeah. Well, all right, so for the listener here... So he's got a lot coming in, he's putting a bunch into different accounts. Right? If you're saving too aggressively, right? I mean, given into the fact that we take a plan... Let's say this person came in, you ran the numbers for them, okay? And we'll try to put some context to this. And you could certainly see that they were on target to be just fine based on the numbers he's already put away. How would you then counsel things. All right, let's kind of back this down? Or do we want to start looking at tax efficiency because we've saved so much or where would we go?   Tony Mauro: Well, where we would start would be what their end game is and what the number looks like for them. And then start working backwards and use the planning software to basically show them, okay, well you're already going to hit what you just told me and then some.   Marc: Right.   Tony Mauro: So if that's still going to be your mark, let's start talking about some of your other goals that you feel like you've missed and let's prioritize those and let's start backing off the savings a little bit and put some towards those.   Marc: When you say number, Tony, do you mean income? Do you mean what their assets would generate monthly for an income?   Tony Mauro: That's what I mean there, yeah.   Marc: Okay. Yeah.   Tony Mauro: I mean, we'll start with what do you want monthly when you retire and then based on what you have in your nest egg now and forecast out what it's going to grow to...   Marc: It could generate that, right, okay.   Tony Mauro: It could generate that easy.   Marc: Right.   Tony Mauro: And then start going from there. And I would actually at least suggest to them if these other goals are important to you, you already know you're going to be okay when you hit the distribution stage in retirement. Let's start knocking some of these things out a little bit.   Marc: Yeah.   Tony Mauro: Because the thing I always point to... And I'm going through it right now with my sister-in-law who just retired at 65. And she's got a lot of health problems and she just had a recent bout in the hospital on dialysis, on a breathing machine.   Marc: Oh no.   Tony Mauro: Almost to a point where you don't know how long, of course, you're going to live is where I'm going with that.   Marc: Right.   Tony Mauro: And if you save it all to the end and something does happen like that, or worse, you pass away, what was it really all for? So I'm one of those guys that I like to balance, hey, you got to live a little now and take care of the future as well. But I think some people go the other way and this guy sounds like he's gone maybe too far the other way because he's asking a lot of questions   Marc: Yeah and he's obviously interested in and maybe living a little bit more. And so that's kind of where I wonder. It's like, okay, well how do we go about breaking that down? Now, granted, obviously coming in and running the numbers, but for the sake of the podcast, sharing that with other folks, how do we go about accomplishing that? So do some analysis. Right? So I guess what you say. What's your current income level and then what's your current spending level? And is that where you want to be in retirement as well? Let's say it's $10,000 a month, just for an easy number.   Tony Mauro: Yeah.   Marc: Well, does what you've generated create $10,000 worth a month in income, which you were just talking about. And then of course people... We hear that, well, you're only going to need about 80% or 85% in retirement, but if you don't want to go backwards in lifestyle and you feel like you've not been living enough anyway, then I would say you want to keep it higher, correct?   Tony Mauro: High. Yeah. I'd keep it at 100%.   Marc: Okay. Yeah.   Tony Mauro: And just keep it high and we can always adjust it downward, but I find that most of the time... And we've talked about it before, that your expenses and living don't go down quite as much as you thought when you were young and dreaming about it. When you get there, you don't want to back that off too much.   Marc: No, for sure. So determine if you're saving too aggressively, right? Look at your rates, look at some of the things that you're bringing in. Again, that monthly income. What's it generating. Then start looking at... I don't know, maybe that's where you can use some of the automation, right? If this person is still working, then maybe you can back down contributions-   Tony Mauro: Back down.   Marc: ... or does that make sense because you want a dollar cost average still too? Right? So it's an interesting math question.   Tony Mauro: It's an interesting math question. And there's also got to throw in taxes there because obviously if you back down some of this pre-tax stuff, if he's got it. His taxes are going to go up a little bit. So it's a delicate balancing act, but I think it can be done in a tax efficient manner with some help and planning.   Marc: So if you were going through and trying to help this person, they came into the office, the first thing you would do is start running the numbers, put all these things in play into your software that he's got because he's got a lot, which is very cool.   Tony Mauro: Yeah.   Marc: And then see where they're at and then what? Tax efficiency would be next, and then what's after tax efficiency? Maybe the legacy side or what?   Tony Mauro: I would say after the tax efficiency, I would ask them about the legacy side, what their plans are there and if we're still in good shape with what they want to do there. And then I would make them list their goals of some of the things they want to do between now and the time they do retire and let's start tax efficiently trying to make that happen.   Marc: Well, he mentions the dream home. He mentions the dream home. So that could be interesting too, right? So it's like is that still high on the list?   Tony Mauro: Right.   Marc: Let's say this person is in great shape, they have saved maybe over amount to what their goal, their target, was. Not that, I guess, there's such thing as being over. But they've hit their target, but they kind of want to take the dream home into account. So, again, you got to factor that in, right? Because we know that pricing is still high for homes. Interest rates are higher, what are you going to get for the old one? What's it going to cost you for the new one? And, again, this is where that whole, complete, financial analysis is really going to come into play.   Tony Mauro: It really will. I don't know anything about this couple, but I would ask them strongly, depending on what their age is, about that dream home unit. Is that really high on the list? Because that that's a large, large expenditure and maybe the home you're in is fine, especially if you own it. And maybe you want to take that money and do something else with that. But who knows. They might be dead set on something like that and then it's up to us try to help them make it work.   Marc: Right, yeah. So plugging in a lot of numbers, doing the X's and O's trying to get it all there. So I guess to kind of circle back to the whole initial thing, can you save too much for retirement? I mean, it's probably not... I feel like fundamentally you got to say no, right? Because if you save too much, all you're going to be able to do is either enjoy yourself more in retirement or leave a nicer legacy to your kids, right?   Tony Mauro: Yes. Yeah. And the true answer is no. I don't think you can ever save too much. I do think though that what we've just talked about and with him, he's feeling it... is don't neglect enjoying life a little bit along the way.   Marc: Yeah, yeah.   Tony Mauro: And that's where a plan is going to come in for sure because he's just -   Marc: It was a while back, Tony, we did a... God, it's been a while. We did a personality type podcast and we talked a little bit about, I can't remember all of them, but one of them was the miser, right?   Tony Mauro: Yeah, yeah.   Marc: Not saying that this person's a straight-up scrooge or a miser, but the person that just got into such a groove and a rhythm of saving and being so aggressive that they forgot to enjoy life. Right? And I don't know that this person's that far, but he kind of framed his question that way. How do you work with people like that? How do you help them kind of see that it's okay to spend some of that money?   Tony Mauro: I think the biggest thing for us is showing them, in real numbers, that they are going to be okay so they can wrap their head around it. Because, for many of them, depending on how they grew up and were raised, it's tough for them to change that. And it takes a little work and it takes some real discipline going the other way to spend some money. And most of my clients, it seems like, especially on the distribution stage, when they get older, they tend to automatically start wanting to not spend as much. And so if you're already there and then you go into retirement, boy, I would hope you wouldn't do that because you're even going to be worse off than you are now.   Marc: Yeah.   Tony Mauro: And, in other words, you're going to have all this money and you don't want to even go enjoy a penny of it.   Marc: Yeah.   Tony Mauro: Defeats the whole purpose of planning.   Marc: Well, I mean, this is really where the black and white helps. The old rubber meets the road kind of thing, right?   Tony Mauro: Yeah.   Marc: Because no matter what your emotional mindset is, if we see the data, then our brain sometimes goes, okay, all right, now, all right, I see this now all laid out. Tony, you could run a stress test for this individual and go, okay, based on what you've saved, based on the goals we've talked about, the things you want to accomplish, this is when you would roughly expect to run out of money, age 100 or whatever.   Tony Mauro: Yeah. Yeah.   Marc: And then that gives, I think, that peace of mind to people to go all right. All right, maybe I can loosen up the purse strings now a little bit and go enjoy myself.   Tony Mauro: Yeah. At least let them know that. And if they choose-   Marc: Not to. Right. Yeah.   Tony Mauro: ... not to, then that's their decision at the end of the day.   Marc: The good thing too is the spouse... He mentioned his spouse, obviously, you got the other person who also gets to see it and go, wait a minute now. Stop being so tight.   Tony Mauro: Yeah. Right.   Marc: I want to go have some fun too, or whatever.   Tony Mauro: Yeah. Yeah. It's fun with when you have the spouses in there because, yeah, you might have a different personality there or somebody that says, I've worked all my life and now I want to go enjoy some things before something happens.   Marc: Yeah. Yeah, don't be such a penny pincher or whatever. And again, not that any of that is wrong. Everybody's going to be different. Just based on this person's question, he seems like he's realizing, Hey, we've done a really good job saving, but I'd like to kind of enjoy life a little bit more. The thing that worried me a little bit most was I feel like I'm living paycheck to paycheck and it's like you're making a good salary. So, yeah, I mean, run the numbers. Look at what you're spending each month. Look at what you're saving because, I mean, there could be some expenditures that are out of control too, right? And it's not hard to do in today's world, right? It seems like Amazon shows up at everybody's house every other day.   Tony Mauro: Yeah. Right. I just ordered some stuff before this podcast.   Marc: Well, there you go. Proved my point.   Tony Mauro: Yeah. Yep. Yep.   Marc: So run the numbers. Come in, sit down, have a conversation with a qualified professional. Make sure you're talking with somebody like Tony. Again, he's a CPA and a CFP and an EA with 30 plus years of experience.

Since December 2024, CEO Paul Huet and his management team have implemented strategic reforms that have already attracted significant institutional interest.The company's institutional ownership has surged from just 8% to 58% in under six months, reflecting growing investor confidence in the new direction. This dramatic shift coincides with the company's recent addition to the SIL index, providing automatic exposure to major funds like BlackRock and T. Rowe Price, with GDXJ inclusion targeted for September 2025.At the heart of this revival is the historic Galena Complex in Idaho, which once produced 5 million ounces of silver annually but has averaged only 1.3 million ounces over the past decade. Management is implementing modern mining methods, including reintroducing long hole stoping for the first time in ten years, aimed at restoring production to previous peak levels.Recent drilling results have reinforced this optimism, with a newly discovered "34 Vein" returning impressive grades of 983 g/t silver over 3.4 meters. To capitalize on these opportunities, the company is pursuing debt financing for critical infrastructure improvements, including a pastefill plant, remote control equipment, and shaft upgrades to more than double hourly capacity.The investment thesis is further strengthened by the dwindling number of pure-play silver producers available to investors. Following recent acquisitions like Pan American's $2.1 billion purchase of Mag Silver at 1.6x NAV, fewer than 10 significant silver-focused companies remain, creating potential scarcity value.Huet, who previously led a successful turnaround at Kurora where production increased fivefold, has personally invested significantly alongside other executives. The team emphasizes that Americas Gold & Silver offers both operational improvement potential and leverage to silver prices, which they believe could reach $35-40 per ounce.With a 100-day track record showing tangible operational improvements and strong technical progress underground, the company is executing a proven playbook in a sector where consolidation continues to reduce investment options, making Americas Gold & Silver an increasingly rare opportunity in the silver mining space.View Americas Gold and Silver's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/americas-gold-silver-corporationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode of The Art of Charm, we sit down with Sebastien Page — Chief Investment Officer at T. Rowe Price and author of The Psychology of Leadership — to explore what world-class leadership really looks like. Blending sports psychology, positive psychology, and personality science, Sebastien unpacks the mental habits of resilient leaders, the science behind stress optimization, and the silent traps that sabotage ambition. He reveals why perfection isn't the goal, why some stress is critical to peak performance, and why goals—if unchecked—can lead to ethical and personal blind spots. If you're a driven professional seeking clarity, impact, and self-mastery, this conversation will give you a psychological edge that most leaders miss. What to Listen For [00:00] Why “no stress” is not the goal — and why some stress makes you perform better [00:06:41] The misunderstood link between flow, performance, and leadership engagement [00:10:01] Stress tolerance affects team dynamics [00:13:59] The dangerous myth of the “always calm” leader [00:17:07] The hidden power of quality relationships in long-term success [00:21:29] Why goal setting without wisdom leads to burnout or regret [00:38:44] Defining your own core values vs. chasing someone else's metrics [00:42:30] The Big Five Personality Traits and how they transform leadership empathy [00:56:59] How to harness social comparison as a competitive advantage — without letting it destroy your self-worth Episode Takeaways: Stress is not the enemy. Managed correctly, it's the fuel for your best performance and presence. Leadership doesn't mean suppressing emotion. It means learning how to channel it to create clarity for others. Goal setting is powerful — but without meaning, you risk losing everything that matters chasing things that don't. Self-awareness begins with understanding how your personality shapes your leadership Don't wait for “the perfect team.” Instead, test, adapt, and build self-aware systems that evolve with context. Your most important asset isn't strategy — it's trust. A Word From Our Sponsors Tired of awkward handshakes and collecting business cards without building real connections?

Tom Samuelson, chief investment officer at Vineyard Global Advisors, says the market's long-running bull market is "on thin ice right now," from a technical standpoint, having fallen below its 200-day moving average, leaving the market "at a really interesting juncture," and making him defensive, building more cash, loading up on utilities and safe sectors and waiting to see how it plays out. Samuelson says that if the market breaks down -- with a decline accelerated by reactions to government tariff policies -- it could drop another 15 percent or more, putting the market squarely into correction territory off of its February highs. Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, is more interested in the recent rally in international stocks than he is in the possible impact of tariffs on the markets there, and picks a T. Rowe Price international fund as the ETF of the Week. Susan Fahy discusses the latest Credit Gauge from VantageScore, which shows that the resumption of student loan payments has negatively impacted credit scores and will drop them further, as other indicators suggest consumer finances are slowly declining. Plus Mike Bailey, director of research at FBB Capital Partners, brings his "beat and replace" approach for stocks to the Market Call, and Chuck gives his initial take on what Wednesday's tariff news means for consumers.

VettaFi's Head of Research Todd Rosenbluth discussed the T. Rowe Price International Equity ETF (TOUS) on this week's “ETF of the Week” podcast with Chuck Jaffe of “Money Life.” 

David Giroux talks about recent fund launches, including a Capital Appreciation Premium Income ETF (TCAL) and the Priced Hedged Equity ETF (THEQ). He talks about the value proposition of the funds, with TCAL aiming for a high-single digit return with “half the market's risk.” He talks about the number of holdings in the fund and why their strategy might interest investors.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Paying off debt is always a smart financial move—but eliminating it before retirement is one of the best decisions you can make. With more people than ever retiring with debt, financial security in retirement is at risk. Let's explore why carrying debt into retirement can be problematic and what you can do to avoid it.The latest statistics reveal a concerning trend. According to the Federal Reserve's 2022 Survey of Consumer Finances, 65% of individuals aged 65 to 74 carry debt—a significant increase from 50% when the Fed began tracking this data 35 years ago.Debt in retirement severely limits lifestyle choices and, for many, leads to an unwelcome necessity: returning to work. A study by T. Rowe Price found that 20% of retirees have gone back to work full-time or part-time, and another 7% are actively looking for jobs. The primary reason? They need more income.Inflation has only worsened the situation. Prices today are around 15% higher than they were three years ago, catching many retirees off guard and stretching already tight budgets—especially those burdened with debt.As Proverbs 22:7 warns, “The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender.” To avoid financial hardship in retirement, it's critical to develop a strategy now to eliminate debt.How to Eliminate Debt Before RetirementIf you're 5, 10, or even 15 years away from retirement, now is the time to set a goal of becoming debt-free. A debt-free retirement provides the financial margin necessary to weather economic downturns, stock market fluctuations, and rising costs of living. Here are practical steps to achieve that goal:1. Reduce Your ExpensesA budget overhaul can reveal unnecessary expenses you're paying out of habit. Cut subscriptions, eat out less, and find ways to live within your means.2. Increase Your IncomeConsider taking on a side job, selling unused assets, or even delaying retirement by a few years to maximize savings and accelerate debt repayment.3. Downsize Your HomeOne of the most impactful moves is downsizing. If you still have a mortgage, selling your current home and purchasing a smaller one with cash (or a significantly reduced mortgage) can dramatically lower your monthly expenses. Additionally, a smaller home means lower property taxes, utility bills, and maintenance costs.4. Pay Down Your Mortgage FasterIf downsizing isn't an option, commit to making extra mortgage payments. Even one additional payment per year can shave off several years from your loan and save thousands in interest.Addressing Consumer DebtCredit card debt is another major obstacle in retirement. High-interest rates, which often increase with inflation, make carrying a balance extremely costly. Here's how to tackle it:Use the Snowball Method: Pay off the smallest balance first, then roll that payment into the next debt. This approach provides quick wins and motivation to continue. Avoid Using Home Equity: Converting unsecured credit card debt into a home equity loan puts your house at risk if you can't make payments. Seek Help If Needed: If you have more than $4,000 in credit card debt, consider working with Christian Credit Counselors. They offer debt management plans that can help you become debt-free 80% faster.One thing we've never heard at FaithFi? A person calling in to say they regretted paying off their debt. Eliminating debt before retirement ensures financial security and provides more time and resources to serve God's Kingdom.So, make a plan today. Your future self—and your financial journey—will thank you.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Do I still have to keep filing married filing joint even though my husband left me about three and a half years ago and we do not live together?I inherited a traditional IRA from my mother when she passed away in 2017, and I'm not sure whether I need to disperse it in 10 years or if I can continue taking required minimum distributions (RMDs) over my lifetime.I don't have a 401(k), but I own a property that I could sell for $250,000 to $350,000. I'm not sure what to do with the money from the sale to help me prepare for retirement, since I'm still working full-time at 61 and don't plan to retire soon.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly MagazineChristian Credit CounselorsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Charles Piller, author of “Doctored: Fraud, Arrogance and Tragedy in the Quest to Cure Alzheimers,” discusses how research into one of the world's most devastating health scourges has been held back by the egos and profit motives of some of the leading researchers, and what they have done to keep their research in the spotlight even as more science shows that it might be leading to the wrong conclusions on how to combat the problem. Lindsay Theodore of T. Rowe Price talks about new research — and a planning guide created from it, that looks at life and long-term care planning for the second half of retirement, noting that for many people the golden years are two different stages that require separate financial focus to plan for correctly. Plus Dan Kim, director of research at Saturna Capital — manager of the Sextant International fund — brings his long-term focus to finding disruptive stocks to the Market Call.

Prioritize participant experience, technology access, and clear metrics.Approach the RFP process rigorously to evaluate new technologies, services, and pricing while addressing changing plan needs. Avoid inertia from periodic reviews and use customized, goal-driven RFPs instead of generic templates.Consider record keepers with personalized, targeted communication leveraging AI for better participant engagement and outcomes. The target-date fund (TDF) search could possibly precede the record-keeper search, focusing on participants' needs for the largest plan assets first. Personalized video technology boosts engagement and outcomes. Ensure clear requirements, address committee biases, and prioritize investment analysis before selecting a record keeper.“You really have to focus on the best decision for your participants, minus all the noise and all the other bells and whistles that may come from those extraneous services.” - Corey PrideConnect with Frank Tighe:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/frankjtighe/ Connect with Corey Pride:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/corey-pride/ Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information and content of this podcast is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.

The research, insights, education, and experience that he and his colleagues analyze and share are all developed with their advisor, consultant, plan sponsor, and participant clients in mind.

He lives by the values he learned from an early age; be authentic and consistent, serve others, and earn their respect. Integrity is an essential component of a well-lived life, and he believes in the power of coaching and mentoring future generations.In this episode, Eric and Michael Doshier discuss:Why CITs are becoming more preferred The transition to CIT structure The growing emphasis on implementing retirement income strategies The connection of financial wellness with satisfaction and retentionKey Takeaways:CITs (Collective Investment Trusts) gaining popularity due to lower costs and increasing transparency, facilitating the transition from mutual funds. Consultants and advisors overwhelmingly prefer the blend/hybrid Target Date Fund (TDF) approach over pure active or passive strategies, integrating cost-efficiency with potential alpha generation.The T. Rowe Price study referenced discovered that 49% of TDF assets in DC plans are now in CIT structures, with a significant shift expected in 2024. The study also highlights the strong preference for blend strategies (active and passive) in target date funds, with 97% of consultants and advisors favoring this approach.While large plans have been implementing retirement income strategies for years, smaller plans are just starting to consider them. The study reveals that 10-20% of consultants and advisors have a dedicated process for evaluating retirement income products, with many more working on it.Financial wellness programs are increasingly being seen as valuable for overall worker satisfaction and retention, with 90% of firms now able to measure their impact. There are three main categories of financial wellness offerings: traditional accumulation savings, near-term savings goals, and in-retirement mechanisms.“Is financial wellness worth the investment? Is it worth the cost? I think the answer is coming back very loud and clear from these 35 firms: absolutely yes!” - Michael DoshierConnect with Michael Doshier:Website: https://www.troweprice.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelgdoshier/ Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information and content of this podcast is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.

Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, says that the start of a rate-cutting cycle is a time when investors will want low-cost active management — rather than an index fund — in the fixed-income space.

In the latest episode of the "Capitalist Investor" podcast, hosts Derek and Luke dive deep into the nuances of retirement planning, with a special focus on target date mutual funds.  1. Target Date Mutual Funds: An OverviewThe episode kicks off with Derek and Luke explaining what target date mutual funds are. These funds, offered by financial custodians like Fidelity and T. Rowe Price, aim to simplify retirement planning. They are named after a target retirement year and automatically adjust asset allocation over time as one gets closer to retirement. For instance, a 2045 fund will be more aggressive today but will gradually become more conservative as 2045 approaches.2. Pros and Cons of Target Date FundsThe hosts delve into the advantages and disadvantages of using target date funds. On the plus side, they offer a hands-off approach to investing, as they automatically become less aggressive with time. However, this automation could lead to timing issues, as these funds do not adjust based on current market conditions, potentially leading to suboptimal performance.3. Hidden Costs and High FeesLuke highlighted a critical drawback of target date funds: their fees. While they provide a convenient way to invest, they often come with higher expense ratios that can eat into your returns. Luke mentioned that fees can be as high as 1% annually, and these costs might not justify the simplicity they offer, especially when you consider that these funds often just track standard indexes like the S&P 500 and the aggregate bond index.4. The Importance of Active ManagementThe hosts stress that while target date funds are designed to be a set-and-forget option, they lack the flexibility to respond to market changes. This lack of adaptability can result in missed opportunities or heightened risks. Luke pointed out that the evolving job market means younger investors are less likely to stay with one employer—and one 401(k)—for decades. This shift makes active management even more crucial.5. Rethinking Conventional Wisdom on Investment StrategiesToward the end of the episode, Luke challenges the traditional wisdom that simply investing in the S&P 500 for 40 years will guarantee wealth. He notes that relying solely on historical performance might be risky in our current economic environment. Luke suggests that even for young investors, a more balanced approach—like a 60/40 portfolio—might offer better risk-adjusted returns.The latest episode of "The Capitalist Investor" sheds light on the complexities of target date mutual funds and the broader landscape of retirement planning. With thoughtful insights into the pros and cons of these funds, the importance of active management, and the need to question conventional wisdom, Derek and Luke offer valuable advice for investors at all stages of their financial journey. Whether you're a young professional or nearing retirement, this episode is packed with information that could help you make more informed investment decisions.
