One Western North Carolina Republican wants North Carolina to expand Medicaid. State and local representatives - mostly Republicans - gathered at Southwestern Community College to talk about the need to "close the health coverage gap." Sarah Thompson, executive director of the Southwestern Commission explains what that gap is: "The coverage gap refers to people who do not qualify for Medicaid because they earn too much to qualify but they make too little to qualify for a subsidy in the private insurance marketplace or to afford health insurance on their own," said Thompson. This impacts over 600,000 people in North Carolina, according to some estimates. Ever since he took office, Democratic Governor Roy Cooper and leading Republicans in the General Assembly have been fighting over Medicaid expansion. One GOP lawmaker is hopeful that this won't be the case this year - Senator Kevin Corbin. Corbin, an insurance agent, was a co-sponsor on the proposed " Working Families" bill which

Frank Paiano is a retired professor from Southwestern Community College, where he was teaching his favorite course Introduction to Investments. He started as a computer programming teacher and mathematician but then moved his way into investments in finance after working at a brokerage firm as a programmer for a while. He’d been a broker now for over 20 years. Aside from that, he is also an insurance agent. He plans on getting right back to teaching and helping young people to improve their financial lives.   “You need to make a choice, and you need to invest. The world doesn't end if you choose carefully and wisely. You are going to do well.” Frank Paiano   Worst investment ever Losing a tremendous opportunity for not doing anything Frank’s worst investment was an investment he never made. At that time, Frank was putting as much as he could into stocks through 403b, which is like a 401k, an employer-sponsored retirement plan. One day, a duplex became available for a fairly reasonable price, just down the street from Frank. He thought it was a pretty great deal. And now, he was torn between focusing on investing through his 403b, which would suffer if he invested in the property. In the end, he did not buy the property at $250,000. Eight years later, at the peak of the market in 2007, that same property sold for $765,000. Lessons learned Make a choice, but do your research first If you are not sure about what investment to choose, do your research, find someone you trust, get a good referral, or take a course and learn how to value individual securities, how to research mutual funds, how to look for real estate, and make your choice. Do not give up You’ll probably mess up the first time but learn from it and do it again successfully the second time. Andrew’s takeaways The concept of alternative outcomes There are many possible alternative outcomes to an investment story. Always remember them when you look back from that investment you did not do. Do not fixate on one thing There are so many things happening around us. Just accept the fact that you’re missing something every single day. Actionable advice You need to get in the game. Do your research or find a competent advisor that you can trust. No. 1 goal for the next 12 months Frank is hoping to join a subscription service where he can travel to Mexico at very low fare so that he can have a vacation there every month. Parting words   “Best of luck and success to all the listeners!” Frank Paiano   Andrew’s books How to Start Building Your Wealth Investing in the Stock Market My Worst Investment Ever 9 Valuation Mistakes and How to Avoid Them Transform Your Business with Dr. Deming’s 14 Points Andrew’s online programs Valuation Master Class Women Building Wealth The Build Your Wealth Membership Group Become a Great Presenter and Increase Your Influence Transform Your Business with Dr. Deming’s 14 Points Connect with Frank Paiano LinkedIn Twitter Website Connect with Andrew Stotz astotz.com LinkedIn Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube My Worst Investment Ever Podcast
