In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed: Understanding what lifetime income really guarantees Separating guarantees from projections Understanding the structure before judging the product Thinking strategically about longevity timing Key Takeaways: A lifetime income annuity pays as long as you are alive, even in extreme medical situations. It transfers longevity risk from you to the insurance company. The guarantee is contractual, not conditional on health or account value. Many products are sold with optimistic growth illustrations, but projections are not promises. The real value lies in the contractual income guarantee. Decisions should be based on what must happen, not what might happen. Taxation depends on the type of account funding the annuity, not the annuity label itself. Payout structures like life with a cash refund determine what heirs receive. Clarity on structure prevents confusion and costly assumptions. If life expectancy continues to rise, future payout rates may decrease. Locking in income today could secure stronger lifetime payments. Timing is a strategic response to longevity risk. "All lifetime income from all lifetime income products… is a combination of return of principal plus interest." — Stan The Annuity Man Connect with The Annuity Man: Website: http://theannuityman.com/ Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!

Macca and Fiona are joined live on air by Tim Reardon, Chief Economist at the Housing Industry Assoc (HIA), Is the government pulling on the right levers to when it comes to building more homes? Tim Reardon is the Chief Economist at the Housing Industry Association (HIA), where he leads the association’s economic research and policy advocacy for Australia’s residential building industry. In his most recent reports, Reardon identifies land supply as the primary constraint on Australian home building, rather than construction costs or interest rates. Housing Industry Association | HIA +1 Land vs. Construction Costs: Since 2000, residential land prices have surged by over 500%, while construction costs and skilled labour have risen by approximately 150%. Infrastructure Taxes: He argues that government policies requiring developers to pay infrastructure fees upfront are “artificial” demand drivers that embed high costs into land prices, ultimately borne by home buyers. Cost of New Homes: HIA estimates that approximately $570,000 in various taxes, fees, and charges are embedded in the cost of a typical new house-and-land package. Housing Industry Association | HIA +4 Releasing HIA's new report, Taxation of Housing and its Impact on Supply, Tim Reardon, Chief Economist of Housing Industry Association, said governments cannot make homes cheaper by taking more from them. “You don't fix a housing shortage by taxing housing harder,” Mr Reardon said. “And you certainly don't make homes more affordable by destabilising the tax settings that support new home construction.” The report finds that housing is already one of the most heavily taxed sectors in the Australian economy, with taxes applied at every stage of the housing lifecycle. Many of these taxes fall most heavily on new housing, directly increasing costs and reducing the feasibility of new projects. “The political reflex has been the same for decades,” Mr Reardon said. “First it was to blame investors. Then foreigners. Then foreign investors. Meanwhile governments quietly add more taxes, more charges and more costs to housing, and wonder why supply keeps falling short.” HIA's analysis shows that investors play a critical role in housing supply, commencing more than 40 per cent of new homes built in Australia, and an even higher share of apartments and rental housing. “When you discourage investors, you don't free up housing, you stop it being built,” Mr Reardon said. “Investors don't neatly switch from established homes into new construction when taxes rise. They leave the housing market altogether.” https://hia.com.au/our-industry/newsroom/economic-research-and-forecasting/2026/01/stop-taxing-housing-harder-if-you-want-more-homes-built-hia-warns?srsltid=AfmBOooQfowpfnhUyCDTwqExK1c2CmARBq5m-gcKQHUKra2ACDjQvc1g The post Sat, 21st, Feb, 2026: Tim Reardon, Chief Economist at the Housing Industry Assoc (HIA), Is the government pulling on the right levers to when it comes to building more homes? appeared first on Saturday Magazine.

What would tax reform look like if the goal were higher wages and stronger long-term growth — rather than more revenue? In this episode, Gene Tunny and John Humphreys examine capital gains tax, bracket creep, and income tax reform through the lens of productivity and living standards. While the discussion focuses on Australia, the principles apply everywhere. How should governments tax capital versus labour? Should tax brackets be indexed to inflation? And how can tax systems encourage saving, investment, and innovation? This episode explores the economic ideas behind a genuinely pro-growth tax reform agenda. Gene would love to hear your thoughts on this episode. You can email him via contact@economicsexplored.com. What You'll Learn Why productivity growth—not redistribution—is central to rising real wages and living standards. How capital gains tax works, and why inflation and the time value of money complicate its design. Why economists worry that taxing capital income can discourage investment. How bracket creep quietly increases tax burdens even when real wages aren't rising. What a pro-growth tax reform agenda looks like.

The ‘entitlement Friday' edition of the Bob Rose Show, featuring US dramatic gold, Pres. Trump's trade deficit and manufacturing wins advancing his ‘Golden Age,' and the Florida Legislature advancing the first meaningful, logical steps to roll back property taxes. Perspective and commentary on the morning's biggest news stories
A review of the week's major US international tax-related news. In this edition: US Supreme Court strikes down IEEPA tariffs – BEPS two-Pillar solution no longer exists, according to a Treasury official; Treasury exploring ways to reach an appropriate agreement on the digital economy – President Trump to deliver State of the Union address – IRS issues possible final tranche of additional interim CAMT guidance – OECD releases FAQs on BEPS Pillar One Amount B – US and North Macedonia issue joint statement on "Framework for an Agreement on Reciprocal Trade."
The IRS has lost tens of thousands of employees since President Donald Trump took office – the result of DOGE, policy differences, last year's government shutdown, and layoffs. Now that we're in tax season, the agency is asking thousands of untrained employees from other departments to help with taxpayer services. Those job cuts and changes could, at best, slow down your refund. At worst, the IRS could be far less able to stop scammers. Meanwhile, the Trump administration is insisting that taxpayers will be getting bigger refunds this year. The problem is, prices on basically everything are still super high – which gives people less of a chance to hold onto that money. And will anyone even remember their tax refunds when they head out to vote in November? For more, we spoke with Vanessa Williamson, senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, and author of “The Price of Democracy: The Revolutionary Power of Taxation in American History.”And in headlines, Arizona Republicans want to send ICE officers to polling places, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg takes the stand in a case weighing if social media platforms deliberately addict and harm children, and the Trump administration pushes back against a court order to restore an exhibit on people enslaved by George Washington in Philadelphia.Show Notes: Check out Vanessa's book – brookings.edu/books/the-price-of-democracy/ Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8 What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Across Europe, local states are in a dire predicament, experiencing the consequences of austerity cuts, shortage of staff as well as a lack of trust in (local) government. Overlapping crises such as climate change, military conflicts and displacement, precarious provisions of public services, the production of so-called left-behind spaces and the rise of the far right pose severe challenges to its institutions – on various scales and across a wide range of sectors. This situation has sparked seemingly paradoxical developments. In some contexts, it has evoked the loss of legitimacy of democratic institutions and authoritarian takeover, while in other cases the local state is becoming an arena for progressive statecraft tailored at social justice and sustainability. Much is being written on these authoritarian and progressive tendencies. In two episodes on the transformation of the local state, we want to complicate binary thinking that can be quick to romanticise progressive local institutions or paint a homogenous picture of authoritarian situations. Paying close attention to the intricacies of the local state, we want to draw attention to its inherent contradictions and frictions by asking: How does progressivism and authoritarianism play out in the everyday processes of the local state? What are the grey spaces where they might overlap and even coproduce each other? What power relations shape these processes? Both episodes are hosted by Matthias Naumann and Gala Nettelbladt. In the first episode, moderated by Ross Beveridge, we discuss authoritarian developments in local statehood with Harriet Dunn, Crispian Fuller and Theo Temple.

So friends, can I ask you a quick question? When you think of Washington, DC, what's the first thing that comes to mind? Politics? The nation's capital? Maybe, a city where somehow we still have taxation without representation?DC has the Congress. It has the executive branch. It has the judiciary. All populated by federal government employees. All public servants. In a very real sense, DC is like the national hub for public service.The person who said that she views DC as a city of service is Kinney Zalesne. And Kinney is now running to be represent the people of DC in Congress. Kinney is running to be DC's delegate to Congress, and I sat down with Kinney to ask her why she wants to represent people of DC in Congress, and why she views DC as a city of service.Kinney Zalesne came to DC in 1995 for what was supposed to be a short stint in the Clinton White House. But she fell in love with the city, and for 30 years has never wanted to live anywhere else. She and her husband Scott have raised four kids here and been active in the community, serving in leadership positions in DC's schools, pools, parks, and nonprofits.DC gave Kinney opportunities to work across government, business, and the nonprofit sector. After serving as a White House Fellow with Vice President Gore, Kinney was Counsel to Attorney General Janet Reno at the US Department of Justice. She later helped lead the Strategy team at Microsoft. She has rolled up her sleeves in our neighborhoods, where she served as President of College Summit, a global-award-winning nonprofit, founded in a basement in Adams Morgan. College Summit helps students from low-income backgrounds go to college. Kinney was also Board Chair of a school in Ward 4 that doubled in enrollment during her tenure. And most recently, Kinney served as Deputy National Finance Chair of the DNC and National Co-Chair of Women for Harris.Of all those roles, Kinney's favorite was being President of College Summit (now called Peer Forward). The organization's mission was to make sure that every student who could make it IN college made it TO college. Kinney built large-scale, diverse, powerful coalitions across the District and then the nation to make sure tens of thousands of local students got the opportunities they deserved. Kinney's skills and experiences are what DC needs now. She will build a broad-based, lasting, nationwide coalition of people to defend DC and ensure we remain a safe, affordable, and healthy place to live.

That combination of real world farriery experience and financial expertise makes her the perfect person to help us unpick today's topics.”“We'll be talking about the Level 3 Farriery Business and IT module — what knowledge apprentices really need, how to prepare effectively, and what assessors are looking for when it comes to passing the End Point Assessment (EPA).” “Then we're moving on to something affecting every UK farrier who operates as a sole trader:the upcoming rollout of Making Tax Digital (MTD).From 6 April 2026, HMRC will require sole traders with income over £50,000 to keep digital records and submit quarterly updates using recognised software — these aren't extra tax returns, but short summaries designed to keep you organised throughout the year.This rollout is being phased in, with thresholds dropping to £30,000 in 2027 and £20,000 in 2028.”“Freya and I break down what that means for farriers, how to get ready, what software options are available, and why preparing early can save a lot of stress — and potentially money.” “So, whether you're revising for your Business and IT module, navigating your first year of self employment, or trying to make sense of the new digital tax rules, this episode has you covered.”This Episode will also link in to an upcoming episode with a new solution for farriers facing the transition to digital Tax, so keep your eyes open over the couple of weeks for that one.As always thank you to the sponsorsThe Shoeing LabSilverback Chaps – silverbackchaps.com

Welcome to the one hundred sixty ninth episode of the #ExpatChat podcast, Taxation of US Retirement Accounts. In this episode, Atlas Wealth Group's Managing Director – APAC, James Ridley, is joined by special guest Martin Jack, Atlas Wealth's US specialist Financial Planner, while co-host Brett Evans is away. With US tax season underway, James and Martin unpack one of the most common and confusing topics facing Australian expats in the United States: how US retirement accounts are taxed and what happens to them when you eventually return home. They break down the key differences in how the IRS and the ATO treat US retirement accounts, and why those differences can create unexpected tax outcomes on repatriation. The conversation covers the most common US retirement structures, including 401(k)s, IRAs, Roth IRAs, and employer-sponsored matching strategies, as well as less familiar plans such as 403(b) and 457 accounts. Martin explains what is taxed versus tax-free, how transactions are viewed from an Australian perspective, and what returning expats should carefully consider before making decisions around their retirement savings. Packed with practical scenarios and expert insights, this episode is essential listening for Australian expats in the US who want clarity and confidence around US retirement accounts, cross-border tax rules, and planning for life after repatriation.

Trusts are often described as “bulletproof” in divorce—but that assumption can be misleading. In this episode of Divorce at Altitude, co-host Ryan Kalamaya is joined by associate attorney Makenzie Ralston to discuss how discretionary trusts are treated in a Colorado divorce.Ryan and McKenzie explain when a trust may truly be protected, when it can be considered property, and when it may still affect property division, spousal maintenance, or child support—even if it is not divisible. Using common divorce scenarios and Colorado case law, they break down how trust language, trustee discretion, and distribution history can dramatically impact divorce outcomes.Guest Information: McKenzie RalstonMcKenzie Ralston is an associate attorney at Kalamaya | Goscha with a background in estate planning and tax law.

It is starting to look like California may be separating people from their personal property and taxing that property through search and seizure, argues Elaine Culotti, a Daily Signal California contributor, in today's special video commentary on the Golden State's impending billionaire tax. “ There are 17.5 million people out of 40 million people that pay taxes in California. The top 2% or 1% or half a percent—200 guys—pay 47% of those taxes. If you create a wealth tax on those people, they are sure to leave, and it's not because of the 5% you're trying to charge them. People do not want to disclose their assets. They deem it unsafe, invasive, overreaching government, and unconstitutional. Taxation without representation.”

David Bach joins Steve Chen to discuss the evolution of The Automatic Millionaire and his newest idea, the IRA Flat Tax, which aims to rethink how Americans use their retirement savings. Bach explains that decades of automation have helped millions accumulate wealth, but most retirees now delay spending their money until required minimum distributions, leaving trillions of dollars idle. He proposes a limited window allowing early retirement withdrawals at a flat tax rate to encourage spending, improve retiree quality of life, and stimulate the economy. The conversation also explores the difficulty of shifting from saving to spending, the importance of enjoying wealth while health allows, and how AI is reshaping financial planning without replacing the need for human guidance, reinforcing Bach's long-held belief that money is ultimately a tool to support a better life.

THE RESTORATION AND THE BLAZING WORLD Colleague Jonathan Healey. Seeking stability after political chaos, England invites Charles II to return in 1660. The Restoration maintains parliamentary taxation power but brings a severe Anglican religious reaction against dissenters. Royalists exact revenge, grotesquely exhuming and hanging Cromwell's corpse. Charles II rules with more financial independence due to growing customs revenue from trade and empire. The era also sees intellectual vibrancy, exemplified by Margaret Cavendish, whose book The Blazing Worldblends science fiction with critiques of technology and gender roles during a time of scientific curiosity. NUMBER 71669 ALLEGORY OF BEHEADING CHARLES I
THE PERSONAL RULE OF CHARLES I AND THE SLIDE TOWARD REBELLION Colleague Jonathan Healey. Tensions rise as lawyer Edward Coke champions the Petition of Right against Charles I's arbitrary imprisonment and taxation. After the Duke of Buckingham is assassinated by a disillusioned soldier, Charles dissolves Parliament in 1629, beginning a decade of "personal rule." He levies controversial taxes like "ship money," which judges uphold, fearing the public. Religious rigidness led by Archbishop Laud and the ruthless administration of the Earl of Strafford alienate the populace. Charles's attempt to impose a new prayer book on Scotland triggers a rebellion, causing his control over England to collapse. NUMBER 31680 CHARLES II
Special live episode with hosts Taylor Dahlin and John Edwards. We're tracking the movements of some creepy little weirdos through downtown Minneapolis. We are asking our audience to guess the number of racist jellybeans who showed up for the anti-Somali protest on January 17. We hope you'll commit to donating at least $5-10 per jellybean, to help us raise money for the Cedar Riverside Protection Alliance (Venmo: CRwork26).Thank you to our on-the-ground Chud Watch reporter Ethan for his meticulous counting of racist jellybeans.
