In this episode, Mike McNamara discusses the hidden expenses of homeownership and strategies for enduring a potential market downturn. He argues that most homeowners significantly underestimate total costs, emphasizing that mortgage payments are merely a financial floor rather than a ceiling. To manage these properties, he recommends budgeting at least two percent of a home's value annually to cover rising insurance premiums, taxes, and inevitable maintenance like roof or septic repairs. Transitioning to investment advice, McNamara warns that the current economy is due for a period of high volatility or a bear market. He advises retirees to protect themselves by maintaining two to three years of cash reserves in "income buckets" to avoid selling assets during a crash. Ultimately, he encourages listeners to proactively stress-test their financial plans to ensure long-term stability regardless of economic shifts. Michael J.

Fire Island is the large center island of the outer barrier islands parallel to the South Shore of Long Island in the U.S. state of New York.In 2012, Hurricane Sandy once again divided Fire Island into two islands. Together, these two islands are about 31 miles (50 km) long and vary between 520 and 1,310 feet (160 and 400 m) wide. The land area of Fire Island is 9.6 square miles (24.9 km2).[1] The majority of the island's land is protected by Fire Island National Seashore which was created in 1964 in response to a protest movement against the construction of a highway through the island.[2] As of 2024, life for Fire Island visitors and residents was defined by restrictions on personal automobile use meant to preserve the island's unique character and ecosystems.[3]Fire Island is part of Suffolk County. It lies within the towns of Babylon, Islip, and Brookhaven, containing two villages and several hamlets. All parts of the island not within village limits are part of the Fire Island census-designated place (CDP), which had a permanent population of 777 at the 2020 census,[4] though that expands to thousands of residents and tourists during the summer. The neighborhoods of Cherry Grove and Fire Island Pines are known as gay-friendly tourist destinations.[5]PICTURE: https://www.redbubble.com/i/sticker/Fire-Island-National-Seashore-New-York-Badge-by-KrisSidDesigns/127091592.EJUG5

The boil water notice affecting thousands of households in Christchurch's east has been lifted for all but about 20 properties. About 14,000 households feared they'd face at least another day without being able to drink from the tap after the water supply in the city's east was found to be contaminated. A public health alert was issued on Saturday afternoon for people in New Brighton, Burwood, Wainoni, Aranui and Southshore after routine testing discovered total coliforms in the Rawhiti water zone. As Tess Brunton reports, the contaminated water has prompted calls for councils to change the way notify vulnerable and immunocompromised communities.

In this episode, hosts Justin and Michael McNamara discuss financial planning updates for 2026, focusing on significant changes to retirement contribution limits and tax laws. They highlight the new "super catch-up" provisions for older workers and explain how higher earners may be required to direct certain contributions into Roth 401(k) accounts. The conversation shifts to the rising costs of homeownership, where Michael warns that insurance premiums and maintenance expenses are outpacing historical averages. He emphasizes that homeowners often underestimate the real cost of property upkeep, which can range from 1% to 3% of a home's value annually depending on its age and location. The segment concludes with a sobering look at how climate-related risks are causing insurers to flee certain markets, potentially threatening property values and future mortgage availability.

Subscribe to receive transcripts by email. Read along with this episode.Every gallon of wastewater flowing through a municipal sewer contains recoverable energy, nutrients, and water—assets that the linear "flush and forget" model has long treated as problems to dispose of rather than value to recapture. Meet Kevin Shafer, who has spent more than two decades proving otherwise. As executive director of the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) since 2002, he's transformed an agency once mocked as a symbol of government waste into a national model for sustainable infrastructure, and last year, Veolia designated it as America's first "eco factory." Milwaukee's circular approach actually predates the term by nearly a century. In 1926, the district began producing Milorganite—Milwaukee organic nitrogen—a fertilizer made from dried biosolids that most utilities simply spread on fields or incinerate. Today, that product returns $11 to $12 million annually to the city's budget while keeping waste out of landfills. Kevin explains that this foundational commitment to doing the right thing has shaped MMSD's culture ever since: 'We just always look at those type of approaches. It's foundational to the district.'The district's eight digesters at its South Shore plant now generate 80 to 85% of the facility's electricity from biosolids, with enough material left over to continue making Milorganite. Kevin calls it Cradle to Cradle in action, referring to the philosophy pioneered by architect William McDonough, who visited MMSD in 2006 and was intrigued by work that predated his framework by decades. The district is also partnering with regional breweries and food processors, accepting their organic waste streams for co-digestion. This reduces disposal costs for industry partners while increasing energy production—a synergy that Kevin sees as the future of utility operations.Looking ahead, Kevin's 2035 vision targets 100% renewable energy and a 90% carbon reduction compared to 2005. He argues that utilities should see themselves as anchor institutions with generational responsibilities: 'I won't be here 50 years from now, but MMSD will be.' That long view has attracted new partners. 'All of a sudden they say, oh, here's someone that's thinking a little bit differently about something, and maybe we can help them, or they can help us.' The key barrier to scaling the circular economy, he believes, isn't technology—it's institutional culture and a narrow focus on regulatory compliance rather than systems thinking.You can learn more about the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District at mmsd.com.Subscribe to Sustainability In Your Ear on iTunesFollow Sustainability In Your Ear on Spreaker, iHeartRadio, or YouTube

In this episode. join host Alyssa McNamara Reed provides a detailed look at mortgage management and the mechanics of debt reduction. She utilizes amortization tables to illustrate how interest payments are front-loaded, demonstrating how even small monthly overpayments can significantly shorten a loan's lifespan and save homeowners thousands in interest. The discussion also features a caller who shares his personal success in achieving financial freedom by aggressively paying off his mortgage early. Additionally, Reed offers guidance on evaluating refinancing opportunities, suggesting that borrowers must consider how far they are into their current loan term before resetting to a new thirty-year schedule. Throughout the segment, she emphasizes that eliminating debt not only improves long-term wealth but also provides the emotional security necessary for more confident retirement planning.

In this episode, Justin McNamara is joined by, Niki Conte, a director at Massachusetts Health Connector, who explains what Massachusetts residents need to know about getting health insurance - and why timing matters. She highlights the January 23rd deadline to enroll in coverage that begins in February, noting that for most people, this is the last chance to sign up unless they experience a qualifying life event. Niki also clears up a common misconception: the Health Connector isn't government-run insurance. It's a marketplace where residents can choose plans from major private insurers, including Blue Cross Blue Shield. The conversation walks through available subsidies and the ConnectorCare program, which can significantly reduce costs for middle- and lower-income households. Niki also shares practical tips on using online cost-estimation tools and getting free, certified help from trained navigators who can guide you through the process. This episode is especially helpful for early retirees, freelancers, and anyone between jobs who needs reliable, affordable health coverage without an employer plan.

In this episode, financial advisor Mike McNamara tackles two of the biggest threats to a secure retirement: debt and the rising cost of education. Mike explains how many people unintentionally put their own future at risk—by carrying high credit card balances, maintaining expensive lifestyles, or prioritizing their children's college tuition ahead of retirement savings. He makes a simple but powerful case: retirement savings shouldn't be optional. They should be treated like a monthly bill that always gets paid. To show why planning matters, Mike walks through the history of major market downturns since 1950 and explains how volatility can damage portfolios if you're forced to sell at the wrong time. His key takeaway for retirees is practical and reassuring: keep enough cash on hand to cover several years of expenses, so market downturns don't derail your long-term plan. This episode is a grounded, no-nonsense look at personal responsibility, smart planning, and how clear math—not wishful thinking—leads to financial peace of mind, the core philosophy behind McNamara Financial.

Is Now the Right Time to Sell Your Home? If you've been asking yourself whether now is the right time to sell your home, you're not alone. This question has been coming up more and more in conversations with homeowners across the South Shore, Boston, and surrounding communities. On a recent episode of Talk Real Estate Roundtable, Broker/Owner Sharon McNamara and co-host Melissa Wallace explored why many sellers are choosing to act earlier than expected and why waiting for the “traditional” spring market may no longer be necessary. Here's what every homeowner should know. The Spring Market Is Starting Earlier Than Ever For years, the real estate world revolved around one familiar phrase: “The spring market starts the Monday after the Super Bowl.” While that guideline still holds some truth, market behavior has shifted. Today's buyers are active well before February, and new inventory is already beginning to trickle onto the market. Sellers are no longer waiting for daffodils to bloom or yards to green up they're positioning their homes ahead of the crowd. Why does this matter? Fewer homes on the market = less competition Serious buyers are already searching Well-priced homes are getting strong attention right away Why Sellers Have Been Waiting Until Now Many homeowners delayed selling over the past year for understandable reasons: Uncertainty around interest rates Hesitation about where they would move next Waiting for clearer market signals Now, confidence is returning. Sellers are realizing that holding out for “perfect” conditions often means missing opportunities that already exist. Inventory remains low, buyer demand is steady, and properly priced homes are still selling. You Can't “Test” a Market That's Testing You One of the biggest mistakes sellers make is trying to “test the market” with an inflated price especially in today's data-driven environment. Buyers are informed. They can see: Comparable sales Pricing history Days on market When a home is overpriced, it doesn't create curiosity it raises red flags. Homes priced accurately from day one are the ones attracting offers, even in the winter months. Key takeaway: The value of your home isn't what you want or need it's what a qualified buyer is willing to pay based on real data. Why Timing Is Personal Not Just Market-Driven The right time to sell is ultimately about your life, not just the market. Ask yourself: Do I need to sell in order to buy my next home? Do I have enough equity for my next move? Am I ready to act quickly if I find the right property? Many sellers today are preparing early because they know this: If you find a home you love and your current home isn't ready, you may miss out. Sellers Need to Be Ready to Act Fast One major theme from the show was preparedness. Sellers who plan to buy another home should: Declutter and organize early Handle small repairs now Understand their home's true market value Have a clear plan for timing and contingencies Being “almost ready” isn't enough in a competitive market. Buyers with strong offers are winning because they're prepared and sellers need to be just as ready. Fewer Homes Can Mean More Attention Contrary to popular belief, fewer listings don't hurt sellers they often help. When inventory is low: Your home gets more eyes Buyers compete more strongly Negotiations tend to be cleaner and more decisive Good homes always stand out but they stand out even more when there's less competition. Final Thoughts: The Right Time Is When You're Prepared There's no universal calendar date that guarantees success. The best time to sell is when: Your home is properly prepared Your pricing is grounded in real data Your next move is clearly thought out If selling has been on your mind even as a “someday” plan now is the time to start the conversation. Thinking About Selling? A professional, local pricing strategy and a clear plan make all the difference.

2025 was a turning point for Quebec commercial real estate, and the gap between winners and losers is getting wider. In this end-of-year conversation, Axel Monsaingeon sits down with Andrew Cross to unpack what actually shifted across office, retail, and industrial, and what smart owners, investors, and tenants should watch as 2026 begins. They talk about why strong malls keep winning despite the e-commerce narrative, why lower-tier office stock is being forced into conversion or repositioning, and how innovation like automation and robotics is reshaping industrial demand.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show for a second time: Raytheon, ritual abuse, MK ULTRA mind control, and Secret Space Program survivor, whistleblower and overcomer, targeted individual, loving mother, nature lover, former Maine journalist and reporter, published writer and author, podcaster and podcast host of her own YouTube channel, flower essence and herbal extraordinaire, remote viewer, psychic and shaman, Family Court reform activist, and an amazing woman risking it all to blind the darkness with her light: Jane HatchRaised in a family of stark contrasts, Jane grew up in Hanover, Massachusetts, immersed in Christian Science teachings that proclaimed God as pure love, denying the existence of evil. Yet, evil lurked. At age four, or possibly younger, Jane's abductions began. White vans prowled the South Shore, snatching gifted children under guises like Boston Pops field trips. Jane vanished from school, entire years erased, classmates recalling her presence for mere days. Physically hauled or drugged in the back, she endured Raytheon's subterranean layers beneath Needham's pristine suburbs.At 16, Jane fled to Maine, but the aftereffects intensified. A targeted individual since youth, she endured directed energy weapons, satellites, voice-to-skull technology, gangstalking, curses, demons, poisonings, accidents, homelessness, and poverty. As a whistleblower exposing Bath Iron Works' corruption—environmental pollution, faulty ship parts, and ties to nuclear arming—she was blacklisted from her journalism career. Then, corrupt family courts tried her as a witch for prophetic dreams and her exposés, seizing her three beautiful and precious daughters, handing them to a psychopathic stepmother likely subjecting them to the same abuses Jane fought to shield them from.In her incredible healing journey, Jane transformed exploitation into empowerment, using remote viewing to uncover past traumas and shamanism to depossess entities, cut cords, and restore wholeness - not just for herself, but for others. And this is what we will be mainly discussing today - Jane's journey through healing and all the ways she has reclaimed her gifts to help others and how she is using her gifts to expose and defeat the same evil that tried to exploit her gifts. We will hear how she combats being a targeted individual. And we will rejoice the power of a mothers love as we hear more about Jane's reunion with her daughters and the unshakable and unbreakable bond that they now share. And that is just a taste of today's episode.  CONNECT WITH JANE:-For consultations, to set up an appointment, or to purchase a book people can text Jane at 774-212-2768 or email lovenewearth@tutanota.com or redfoxruns1@gmail.com-Donate to Jane: Zelle at 774-212-2769-YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JaneCeliaHatch/videos-Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/JaneCeliaHatch/videos-Websites: https://bethesdastar.com/about-me/ & https://www.radiantearthmother.com/CONNECT WITH EMMA:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.com OR standbysurvivors@protonmail.comMy Substack: https://emmakatherine.substack.com/BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thSupport the show
