In this episode of Senior Matters, Mark E. Wight and Scott Cruise dove into the importance of special needs trusts (SNT) for families caring for individuals with physical, mental or developmental disabilities. Learn how these trusts protect financial stability while preserving eligibility for government benefits like Medicaid. Through real-life examples—including a family who unintentionally disinherited their special needs child—this episode highlights why proper planning is essential. If you or a loved one cares for a special needs individual, this episode will provide crucial insights and guidance on securing their future.

It's been way too long since my good friend Kyle from Throwback Baits has been on SNT. Kyle was one of the first builders we interviewed back in 2022. Fast forward nearly three years, and his growth has been remarkable. We talk about the upcoming Wake Walker Lite bait, their new soft bait, and he even hints at a few other projects in the works! I hope to see you guys at the TB Event in June—it's going to be an amazing time put on by some great folks.Throwback's socials:IG: ThrowbackBaitsSite: www.Throwbaitbaits.com

From one of the best states in the Great Lakes region to a southern state on the East Coast—can you imagine how much everything changed for Alex? We dive into the transformation his fishing had to undergo and the culture shock he experienced in the bass scene of a new region. Bigger lakes, deeper lakes, more fishing pressure, and different baitfish all created a steep learning curve for a kid from New York.Alex's Socials:IG: alexsanvillefishingCheck out the new official SNT tackle shop sponsor, Lake Pro Tackle!

What do a 250 and a DRT Ghost have in common? Our crazy guest Kyle Reigle uses them both regularly to target giant river smallmouth—with pretty impressive results. We dive into how he uses these baits, along with others, in fast-moving river currents. We also discuss how the big swimbait scene is slowly growing in river systems and how it has both positively and negatively impacted the community, from bait builders to anglers just starting to get into swimbaits.

Nate can do it all, from working a fly rod to throwing a swimbait. A local friend who has mastered some crazy bites and dialed in exactly what his local fish want year-round.

The definition of synergy is two things put together, having an effect greater than the sum of the parts. Synergy can play a beneficial role in family finances. A case in point is an ABLE account working together with a special needs trust for a person with disabilities. Matt Syverson joins us today to talk about it.Matt Syverson is Managing Partner & Senior Wealth Advisor for Sound Stewardship in Overland Park, Kansas. He is also a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) and a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®). What is an ABLE Account?An ABLE account, short for “Achieving a Better Life Experience,” is a tax-advantaged savings account specifically designed for individuals with disabilities. It allows them to save money and work without losing access to crucial government benefits like Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid, which have strict asset limits of $2,000 for individuals and $3,000 for couples. The key features of an ABLE account include:Eligibility: Available to those who are blind or disabled before age 26 (rising to 46 in 2026).Savings Opportunity: Allows individuals to work and save without exceeding government asset limits.Tax Benefits: Often provides state tax deductions similar to 529 college savings plans.Contribution Limits: The lifetime maximum contribution limit aligns with 529 plans but should stay under $100,000 to avoid affecting SSI or Medicaid.Qualified Expenses: Can be used for day-to-day needs like food and rent, excluding vices like alcohol or gambling.No Impact on Government Benefits: ABLE account balances won't disqualify the individual from receiving SSI or Medicaid.It's important to note that in most states, there is a Medicaid payback provision, which allows the state to recover funds from the ABLE account to cover medical bills after the account holder's passing. However, some states, including Kansas, have removed this clawback provision, making these accounts even more attractive for families.What is a Special Needs Trust?A special needs trust (SNT) is a more established tool designed to protect individuals' eligibility for government benefits while allowing families to manage significant assets. This trust can hold homes, vehicles, real estate, investments, and various accounts like IRAs or Roth IRAs. Key benefits of a special needs trust include:Asset Management: Can hold a wide variety of assets that would otherwise disqualify someone from receiving government benefits.Estate Planning Certainty: Spells out how the assets will be managed and distributed after the individual's passing.No Medicaid Clawback: Unlike ABLE accounts, SNTs are not subject to Medicaid payback provisions, providing greater long-term financial security.Spending Flexibility: Can cover a wide range of expenses not covered by government programs.However, special needs trusts come with a downside. If the trust is used to pay for food or rent, the SSI benefit will be reduced by $334 per month. Additionally, any direct payments to the individual from the trust can affect SSI income, so careful management is required.How Can ABLE Accounts and Special Needs Trusts Work Together?Combining an ABLE account with a special needs trust can offer significant advantages for families. The ABLE account can be used for day-to-day expenses, while the special needs trust can be preserved for larger, long-term financial goals. This separation allows for greater flexibility and financial independence.Day-to-Day Needs: An ABLE account can cover immediate expenses like food and rent without reducing SSI benefits.Long-Term Planning: A special needs trust can hold larger assets and ensure they are passed on to future beneficiaries without impacting government benefit eligibility.Tax Benefits: ABLE accounts enjoy tax-free growth and withdrawals for qualified expenses, while special needs trusts are fully taxable each year. Therefore, it is beneficial to use the ABLE account for specific expenses to maximize tax savings.Why Go Through the Effort?Setting up both an ABLE account and a special needs trust takes planning, but the benefits are well worth it. ABLE accounts are simple and inexpensive to establish, offering tax advantages and flexibility for everyday expenses. Special needs trusts, while more complex and costly, assure that your loved one will retain their benefits and that their assets will be managed according to your wishes.When creating these plans, it's crucial to consult with an attorney and a financial advisor. Coordinating contributions to the ABLE account and the special needs trust is crucial to avoid exceeding limits that could affect eligibility for government benefits.Combining an ABLE account with a special needs trust can provide powerful financial synergy for families caring for a loved one with disabilities. With the right planning, these tools help ensure both short-term financial needs and long-term security, allowing your family member to thrive and achieve their God-given potential.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My wife and I have the opportunity to purchase land and build a home using a VA loan.

I don't think this man even needs an introduction. He's been making baits for longer than I've been on this earth and can even claim his baits have landed a bass over 20 pounds and one over 19 and a half pounds. I don't think many other builders can say their baits have achieved anything like that. It was truly a great time talking with Mickey, hearing the stories behind all the different glides he's made and offers for sale, along with some of the ones he's made and never released to the public. We even got to talk about what made him and his family leave California before calling Texas and the shores of Lake Fork 'home.' 3:16's socials: IG: 316lure Website: www.316lurecompany.com FB: 316 Lure Company Check out Leviathan Rods, and use code scales20 at check out for 20% off all your rod purchases! ⁠⁠https://www.leviathanrods.com⁠ ⁠  Check out the new official SNT tackle shop sponsor, Lake Pro Tackle!

Join Trevor and me as we talk about his bait company, Outside the Box Lure Co. We discuss his holy grail waterway and how he learned to swimbait fish it, all while using this loaded spot to experiment with building baits. We touch on what he is trying to do differently in the often saturated swimbait scene. He tells us about his bait and what makes it unique with his tail design. Trevor talks about some pretty unique things he is working on with other folks and mentions that his new site will be open to the public at the time of listening to this!

Scott has probably one of the most recognizable art styles in the swimbait community. Working with brands like Toxic Baits and LDC, his work is displayed in countless living rooms and man caves all across the world. We talked about all things graphic design and calico bass fishing. We learned the backstory and timeline for Bowsnarrow, along with how Scott targets these calico bass in huge green kelp forests. It was a great conversation between two creators trying to make their work known in the community.

I felt like I was talking to a lifelong friend when interviewing Shawn. Coming from New York, I was excited to discuss what his fishing experience is like and how it differs from mine, even though we're only a few hundred miles apart. We talked about the similarities we share in the waters we fish and compared notes on our experiences. Shawn might not be a 10-year veteran like some other guests, but he has good fish under his belt and some really good ideas and knowledge about his area's fish. He also surprised me with some of the topics we discussed.

In the industry, there aren't many names as well known as Mike Bucca, or Bullshad Swimbaits for that matter. I was lucky enough to sit down with Mike and discuss the beginnings of Bullshad and what it was like going into bait building full-time before the scene was developed like it is today. We talked about the many designs Mike has, his pricing, and how he was firm on his prices at the beginning of Bullshad. We gained insight into Bullshad that isn't widely known, such as how the Texas freeze in 2021 affected Mike's prices and continues to do so today. Mike also explains his new collaboration brand with GSM, Bucca Brand.

The importance of creating a financial plan, in which care for a loved one is paramount, is critical for many investors. In some cases, these plans include creating a Special Needs Trust ("SNT") as well as maximizing government assistance from Social Security and Medicaid. On this episode we dive deep into this important topic with Ashley Velategui, a Director in Bernstein's Wealth Strategies Group. We explain how Special Needs Trusts work, their special features, and how to most effectively create them. Ashley demystifies the complexity behind many of the government assistance programs and highlights strategies to maximize benefits. We also explain ABLE Accounts and how they can be a part of the overall plan.

2 Episodes in a row with bait builders, this feels like a fever dream. Join me as we interview Reis with Raw Baits. His story is unlike any other we've had on the show. Being born and growing up for some time in Europe to now living in Texas making swimbaits. It's a pretty awesome story with some funny moments. We get to hear his thoughts behind making a carp profile wake and where the idea stemmed from and how his journey from making them from wood to now resin.

Joey joins the show, and we discuss everything related to Lanciotti Lures. We delve into the pros and cons of being your own boss. Of course, we discuss Joey's introduction to fishing and swimbait fishing. Both seemed almost unlikely, especially considering the age at which he found his love for fishing. We hear about the first few baits he made and how "bad" they were. and how He quickly realized that if the baits kept selling, he could leave his 9-to-5 job and make baits full-time. We also discuss the upcoming projects from Lanciotti Lures and what you should be on the lookout for.

Matty is a well-known name in the world of swimbait fishing, especially if you watched the Elite event at Lake Fork recently. He joins our show to talk about growing up in Hawaii and how it shaped him as a fisherman. We chat about his journey from the laid-back islands to the bustling city of LA. We hear Matty's story about getting into fishing competitions and discovering swimbaits. He brings us into his mind for the event, and helps us learn why he chose his fihsing methods and locations. Something you don't get to hear or see often from the elite guys, especially at the depth we went. We dicussed what it was like to be on national tv and how much it meant to him having such a good few days with a camera guy.

A true hammer from the Ozarks, Brennan is a well-known swimbaiter with some serious fish under his belt. We spoke about how he got into swimbaits, along with his initial experiences of fishing a lake and region that was essentially untouched by glide baits, and what that meant for him at the beginning of his swimbait journey. We discussed all his personal bests (PBs) and the stories he had with them. He talked about what it's been like working for KGB over the last 4 months and even discussed their new GOAT trout bait.

110 episodes later, Charlie comes back on to talk about what he's been up to since episode 24. A whole lot of saltwater fishing and a good amount of bass fishing as well. We talk about swimbaits for saltwater, new DRT baits, and of course, the smallies and smelt we had discussed on his previous episode.

Join the international travelers on this episode to talk about their most recent trip to Japan in October. Being Phoenix's first time over there I ask what his experiences were like in the Bass Crazy country of Japan.

Maybe one of the most well known painters in the swimbait scene. I finally get to sit down with Dan from ClickBait Customs, I know many many people have wanted to hear this episode and I think it's a very good one. Maybe not fully bait building oriented, but more so about the way ClickBait came to be as well as what's it's like moving around every few months. Dan was a really fun guy to talk with during and after the show, a truly talented guy with not only painting but the craftsmanship side of things as well!
