Building on last week's discussion about why rolling over your old 401(k) into an IRA could be a smart move, this episode flips the script. It explores seven compelling reasons you might want to leave your 401(k) with your previous employer instead. I break down factors like fees, company stock advantages, penalty-free withdrawals, legal protections, and unique investment options that could all influence your decision.  If you're approaching retirement or just planning your next career move, this episode is packed with insights to help you make the best choices for your financial future.  You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [04:12] Leave company stock in 401k to use net unrealized depreciation, potentially saving on taxes via long-term capital gains. [08:55] Consider keeping company stock in an old 401(k) to avoid taxes and penalties if under 59.5 years. [10:01] IRA withdrawal exemptions and strategies. [16:01] Consider keeping your old 401 (k) for potential loan access, but check if your provider permits non-employee loans. [17:50] Deferring 401(k) distributions explained. When to Leave Your Old 401(k) With Your Previous Employer Changing jobs often means making quick decisions about retirement savings. While rolling over your old 401(k) into an IRA is a common choice, there are significant advantages to leaving it where it is. This week, I'm discussing the situations when maintaining your previous employer's retirement plan is advantageous.  1. Potential for Lower Fees If you worked for a large organization, their 401(k) plan might offer exceptionally low administrative and investment fees, especially if they've chosen robust menus with index fund options. While IRA costs have dropped due to strong competition among major financial institutions like Schwab, Fidelity, and Vanguard, some large employer plans still offer a lower cost.  Always compare fees before making a move; sometimes, your old 401(k) will be the most cost-effective option available. 2. Tax Benefits of Company Stock (Net Unrealized Appreciation) Do you have significant company stock in your 401(k)? You could benefit from the unique tax break called Net Unrealized Appreciation (NUA). This allows you to pay lower long-term capital gains rates on your stock's growth instead of higher ordinary income rates. However, to take advantage of NUA, you must carefully roll out your stock and be mindful of any 10% penalty if you're under 59½. Know your stock's cost basis and consult with a tax professional to determine if waiting is best, especially if your cost basis is higher. 3. Penalty-Free Access Between Age 55 and 59½ Left your job between 55 and 59½? Here's a little-known benefit: you can tap your old 401(k) penalty-free before age 59½. If you roll the balance into an IRA, that door closes, unless you qualify for rare exceptions. This rule can be crucial if you need those funds to bridge the gap to retirement, so consider leaving at least part of your balance in the plan until you turn 59½. 4. Enhanced Creditor Protection Federal law (ERISA) offers 401(k) plans strong protection from creditors and judgments, even in bankruptcy. While rollover IRAs are also protected under federal and many state laws, the details can get complicated. Certain states may limit IRA protections, so it's wise to investigate your state's rules. Segmenting rollover IRAs from contributory IRAs can also help simplify tracking and protection. 5. Access to Stable Value Funds Some 401(k) plans offer stable value funds, a low-risk investment choice that often comes with a guaranteed minimum rate of return. While money market funds are currently paying more, that could change if interest rates drop. In lower-rate environments, stable value funds could offer an edge and a safe harbor for your retirement assets. 6. Possible Loan Availability Need to borrow against your retirement savings? Some plans allow you to take a loan from your 401(k), even after leaving the company. However, this isn't universal, since loan repayments are usually tied to payroll. Check with your plan administrator to see if this benefit applies; if it does, it could be an important safety net. 7. Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) Deferral if Still Working If you work past age 73, keeping your funds in a 401(k) with your current employer lets you defer required minimum distributions (RMDs). That's not the case with IRAs. Consolidating old 401(k)s into your current plan can simplify RMD timing and let your funds grow tax-deferred a bit longer. Make an Informed Move Rolling over your 401(k) may seem automatic, but there are times when staying put is the better choice. Carefully assess fees, tax implications, creditor protections, and your unique needs. Most importantly, consider working with a fiduciary, fee-only financial advisor who understands your entire financial picture.

This week, Sam and Hannah are back from a heavy Memorial Day Weekend of reading, and Hannah's books, in particular, are once again well-coordinated. Even if they're a little hard to describe. Also, this is a solid Pride episode, sort of by mistake. Here's what's on tap: - "The Book of Records," by Madeleine Thien, which is as meaty a read as we've had in a while, full of philosophical truths and a building made of time. This is great stuff.  - "Erasure," by Percival Everett, who is legitimately among the most important writers working today. This is the book that was made into the movie "American Fiction," but, as you might imagine, is even better than the movie.  - "I'll Tell You When I'm Home," by Hala Alyan, who this time delivers a memoir grappling with her family's history of immigration, escaping Kuwait after the Iraqi invasion and coming to the U.S. This book shows you what generational trauma means.  - "The Phoenix Pencil Company," by Allison King, a data privacy professional who's crafted a magical text about a family that can read pencil hearts (they stab it into their veins) that's perfect for Pride month. It's weird, yes. But new and different.  - "Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil," by V.E. Schwab, which is an ode to Anne Rice — a vampire book — but doesn't really follow Rice's vampire rules, exactly (they're all lesbian vampires, which is different). The second half of this is pretty great.  - Oh, and we're not going to tell you which book it is we disliked so intensely. See if you can figure it out. And there's no real good reason why this didn't get posted before June 10, other than Sam being in Iceland and not feeling like posting it. Sorry. 

Jetzt liegen die EU-Verträge auf dem Tisch. Wie will die EU die zurückhaltende Schweiz überzeugen vom Abkommen? Fragen an EU-Parlamentarier Andreas Schwab. Bereits beim Abschluss der Verhandlungen nannte EU-Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen das Vertragspaket zwischen der Schweiz und der EU «historisch». Der Bundesrat und die Parteien reagieren deutlich nüchterner – auch diesen Freitag, als Aussenminister Ignazio Cassis den Vertragstext vorgestellt hat. Läuten in Brüssel bereits die Alarmglocken? Diese Frage geht an Andreas Schwab. Er vertritt die deutsche CDU im EU-Parlament, ist ein langjähriger Kenner der Schweiz und ein starker Befürworter des Abkommens. In der «Samstagsrundschau» diskutieren wir die strittigsten Punkte: Die Zuwanderung etwa. Teilt die EU bei der viel beachteten Schutzklausel gegen zu viel Zuwanderung die Interpretation des Bundesrats? Oder Thema Lohnschutz: Akzeptiert Brüssel die inländischen Massnahmen gegen Lohndumping? Gerade Andreas Schwab ist als Vertreter der süddeutschen Wirtschaft kritisch eingestellt gegenüber den Schweizer Massnahmen. Der EU-Parlamentarier Andreas Schwab aus Südbaden ist Gast bei Dominik Meier in der «Samstagsrundschau».

At Everyday Church, we're passionate about raising up the next generation—and that means putting the mic in their hands, not just talking about them. This week, Josiah Schwab—a 20-something young adult with a deep love for God's Word—brings a powerful message from John 15.   In the second week of our Summer of Seeking series, Josiah challenges us to move beyond surface-level spirituality and into a deliberate, fruit-bearing relationship with Jesus. With honesty, biblical depth, and personal vulnerability, he walks us through what it really means to abide in the Vine—to cut off the things that are choking your soul and cling tightly to the One who gives life.   Whether you're in a dry season or just hungry for more, this message will stir your spirit and remind you: fruit doesn't come from trying harder, it comes from staying closer.   From Sunday 06.08.25

In today's episode, I'm diving into a topic that's top-of-mind for anyone who's switched jobs: what should you do with your old 401(k) plan? I discuss five key reasons why moving them into an IRA could simplify your financial life, from consolidating accounts for better control to gaining access to a broader range of investment options, reducing fees, optimizing Roth and after-tax funds, and making it easier to work with a financial advisor.  Whether you're planning your next career step or just want to make your retirement savings work harder for you, this episode is packed with practical advice to guide your decision. Stick around until the end, and don't forget to tune in next week when I cover situations where rolling over your 401(k) might not be the best choice! You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] Vested retirement funds offer four options: keep them in the plan, or withdraw and pay taxes [04:46] Rolling over a 401(k) to an IRA offers more control and access to your retirement funds, preventing forgotten accounts as you change jobs [06:41] Consolidate investments for simplicity and control; update records if keeping old retirement accounts [12:05] Convert Roth contributions to a Roth IRA to start the five-year period and ensure future gains grow tax-free, especially for after-tax funds in a 401(k) without in-plan Roth conversions [13:13] Rollovers to an IRA can facilitate Roth conversions and allow financial advisors to manage retirement accounts. Consolidate Old 401ks for a Smoother Future When you change jobs, it's important not to leave your old retirement accounts behind. For many Americans, the primary vehicle for saving for retirement is their employer-sponsored 401(k) plan. But what should you do with that 401(k) once you've moved on? Rolling it into an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) may be the smart move, offering control, flexibility, potential cost savings, and tax advantages. Let's walk through five compelling reasons why a 401(k) rollover into an IRA might make sense for you. 1. Greater Control and Account Consolidation One of the biggest headaches of changing jobs multiple times is having various retirement accounts scattered across different institutions. Not only is it difficult to keep track of these accounts, but there's the risk that you might forget about them entirely. By rolling old 401(k)s into a single IRA, you consolidate your investments, making it easier to manage and monitor your retirement savings. With all your funds in one place, you'll have more control over your asset allocation and will be better positioned to implement a cohesive investment strategy. Additionally, consolidating accounts reduces the administrative burden of managing multiple logins and statements. 2. Expanded Investment Choices and Flexibility Most employer-sponsored 401(k) plans offer a fairly limited menu of investment options, typically ranging from a dozen to twenty funds. These may or may not align with your preferred asset allocation strategy, and some plans are more limited than others. By rolling over your 401(k) into an IRA at a major discount broker like Schwab, Fidelity, or Vanguard, you unlock a much broader universe of investment possibilities, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), stocks, bonds, CDs, and more. This flexibility lets you fine-tune your portfolio, properly diversify, and better tailor your investments to your risk profile and retirement timeline. 3. Potential for Lower Investment Costs 401(k) plans, particularly those from smaller employers, often feature higher administrative and fund expenses, sometimes reaching 1% or more in annual fees. These extra costs chip away at your investment returns over time. With an IRA, especially when investing in low-cost ETFs or mutual funds, you can often significantly reduce the expense ratios you pay. Over decades, even a modest reduction in annual fees can translate into thousands more in retirement savings due to the power of compounding. 4. Managing Roth and After-Tax Contributions Many 401(k) plans now offer a designated Roth component as well as avenues for after-tax contributions. When you roll over your account, this is a valuable opportunity to ensure your Roth and after-tax money are treated with optimal tax efficiency. For example, rolling Roth 401(k) funds into a Roth IRA starts the five-year clock for tax-free withdrawals on earnings, which is critical for planning your retirement withdrawals. Additionally, an IRA rollover can be structured to split after-tax contributions into a Roth IRA, giving those funds tax-free growth potential rather than the more limited advantages offered inside the 401(k). 5. Access to Professional Management If you want professional help managing your retirement investments and financial planning, rolling your assets into an IRA is almost always a prerequisite. Advisors generally cannot manage assets held within a former employer's 401(k) platform, but with funds consolidated in an IRA at a major custodian, they can actively manage your investments, make ongoing adjustments, and assist with tax planning and distributions as you transition into retirement. Assess Your Situation Before Moving While rolling over your old 401(k) to an IRA offers considerable advantages, it's not always the perfect solution for everyone. Each situation is unique, and certain protections or features (such as early withdrawal options or creditor protections) may be stronger inside a 401(k) for some individuals. Be sure to review your specific circumstances carefully, ideally, with a trusted financial advisor, before making any big moves. A well-considered rollover could make your road to retirement much smoother, giving you more control, lower costs, and better investment options along the way.

Economic uncertainty, heightened volatility and on-again, off-again trade policies are challenging for investors. But similar to the Great Financial Crisis of 2008, fiduciary advisors can use this opportunity to assert their value and give clients confidence that their broader financial plans aren't as negatively impacted as they may think, given the daily doom-and-gloom market headlines. … Read More Read More

Don and Tom explore the evolution, promise, and pitfalls of Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs).

In this episode, we sink our teeth into Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil by V. E. Schwab. From the haunting pull of vampire lore to the raw portrayal of anxiety and mental health, we explore how Schwab reshapes the gothic tradition. We ask: How would this story shift if its characters were older? What role does the setting play in how we perceive the vampires? Join us as we unearth the buried fears, subtle power dynamics, and tender monstrosities that make this story linger like a whisper in the dark.Episode Timepoints:00:00 - Intro00:15 - Life Updates02:50 - Spoiler Warning03:20 - Introduction to V.

Credit markets are rallying but there’s elevated risk of some companies not repaying debt, according to the Schwab Center for Financial Research. “There’s a sense of complacency,” Collin Martin, the firm’s fixed income strategist, tells Bloomberg News’ James Crombie and Bloomberg Intelligence’s Himanshu Bakshi in the latest episode of the Credit Edge podcast. “Defaults are probably going to stay high,” says Martin, noting low interest coverage ratios among the weakest borrowers. Martin and Bakshi also discuss private credit risk, floating-rate and preferred debt opportunities, and the impact of trade wars on consumer confidence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

BNR Beurs is een beetje een sportprogramma geworden. We doen namelijk verslag van alle transfers. Daar kwam geen einde aan. De belangrijkste is die van Christine Lagarde. Zij zou de gedoodverfde opvolger van Klaus Schwab zijn als baas van het World Economic Forum. Maar daarvoor moet ze wel eerst haar positie als voorzitter van de ECB opgeven. Dat zou niet gebeuren, werd al gezegd. Maar volgens Schwab zelf zijn er toch al gesprekken geweest met haar. Er is zelfs al een woning voor haar geregeld in Zwitserland. Kan de ECB zich maar beter klaarmaken voor de zoektocht naar een opvolger? En wat betekent het voor het beleid van de centrale bank? Die vragen beantwoorden we deze uitzending. Dan hebben we het ook over de andere centrale bankier die opvolging zoekt. Hier in Nederland zelfs. Klaas Knot heeft namelijk nog maar een maand te gaan voor zijn termijn afloopt en hij moet stoppen als baas van De Nederlandsche Bank. Maar het blijkt behoorlijk lastig om vervanging te vinden. En dat leidt tot zorgen bij DNB en in de financiële sector. Verder zijn er nog een hoop andere transfers die wél al zeker zijn. Ook daar brengen we verslag over uit. En we brengen goed nieuws! Want sommige analisten durven eindelijk weer positief naar de toekomst te kijken. De grootste onrust op de beurzen is verleden tijd, zeggen ze. En het ene na het andere bedrijf besluit opeens groots in Bitcoin te investeren. Het mediabedrijf van Trump ging al om, en nu wil ook gamewinkel GameStop opeens honderden miljoenen erin steken. Die bedrijven hebben een loophole gevonden waarmee ze praktisch geld kunnen printen. Maar is dat misschien toch te mooi om waar te zijn?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We'd like to hear from you. Please fill out this survey to tell us your thoughts and feedback about Jewish History Nerds. Here's the link: ⁠https://unpacked.media/nerdsurvey⁠ This week, Jonathan Schwab and Yael Steiner explore the rich history of some of India's Jewish communities, including the caste-influenced divisions among the so-called "Black Jews, White Jews, and Brown Jews" of Cochin. Using the Cochin Copper Plates as an entry point, Yael and Schwab explore how Indian Jewish life flourished—largely free of antisemitism—until almost the entire population made Aliyah after 1948. Yael explains that the Cochin (Cranganore) Copper Plates, dating possibly as far back as 1000 CE and inscribed in Tamil, bestowed unique privileges to the Jewish community on India's Malabar Coast Jews and a Jewish leader named Joseph Rabban.

"So teach us to number our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom." - Psalm 90:12 If you're a few years from retirement and your savings aren't quite where you want them, you might feel like you've run out of time. But maybe you don't need a time machine to solve the problem. Today, Matt Bell joins us with some encouraging words about beefing up retirement savings.Matt Bell is the Managing Editor at Sound Mind Investing, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Surprising Power of Working a Little LongerIn 2018, a Stanford study called The Power of Working Longer made a compelling discovery: delaying retirement by just three to six months can have the same impact on retirement readiness as saving an additional 1% of income every year for 30 years.Yes, really.This is largely due to two factors:Higher Social Security Benefits – For every month you delay past full retirement age, your benefit increases by 2/3 of 1% (8% annually). Better Annuity Rates – The older you are when purchasing an annuity, the more monthly income you'll receive for the same investment.But there's a caveat: the study is based on specific assumptions that may not match your financial situation.What the Study Assumes—and Why It MattersThe Stanford study uses a fictional worker named “John” who:Started saving at age 36Saved 6% of income and received a 3% matchRetired at 66 and claimed Social Security immediatelyUsed all savings to buy an inflation-indexed annuityIn reality, your income, savings rate, Social Security timing, and withdrawal strategy may differ widely. Not to mention, indexed annuities like the one in the study are no longer widely available. So while the study provides encouragement, its specifics shouldn't be universally applied.If you can delay claiming Social Security, it can significantly boost your lifelong income. For example, waiting until age 70 instead of 66 could result in a monthly check that's 24% higher. You'd need to live roughly 12 more years to “break even,” but many retirees today are living well into their 80s and beyond.Social Security is essentially a government-backed, inflation-adjusted annuity, making it a powerful foundation for retirement income.More Benefits to Working LongerBeyond Social Security, staying employed offers additional financial and emotional perks:More Contributions – Additional working years allow you to save more and delay withdrawals.Shorter Retirement Span – Fewer retirement years mean your nest egg doesn't have to stretch as far.Health & Community – Work often provides routine, purpose, and social interaction—elements many retirees miss.Working longer isn't just a financial decision—it impacts your time, relationships, and expectations. If you've long looked forward to travel, family time, or volunteering, extending your career might feel like a loss. That's why it's essential to consider both the math and the meaning.Couples should prayerfully approach retirement planning together. Decisions about timing affect both spouses, especially when only one is working. Unequal expectations can lead to tension, so it's essential to:Talk openly about your hopes and concernsUnderstand your financial picture as a teamChoose unity over independence in decision-makingThis is one of the most crucial decisions you'll make as a couple.How Much Do You Really Need?You may have heard that you need 70–80% of your pre-retirement income. That's a good rule of thumb, but it's far better to run the numbers yourself. Some costs (like commuting or saving for retirement) may go down. Others (like healthcare or travel) may go up.

This week, hosts Jonathan Schwab and Yael Steiner explore the Roman Judea Capta coins—propaganda minted to celebrate Rome's brutal suppression of the Jewish revolt and the destruction of the Second Temple.
