Learn how to plan for self-employment taxes and understand how savings interest can affect your tax bill. How can sports betting apps affect your finances? How do you set up taxes for 1099 contract work? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola discuss self-employment taxes to help you prepare for tax season and avoid surprises. But first, senior news writer Anna Helhoski joins them to discuss the rise of sports betting and prediction markets.

A candid conversation with Eric Brotman on why retirement planning needs structure, flexibility, and fewer assumptions. One of the things I've learned after years of retirement planning conversations is that most people aren't short on opinions — they're short on clarity. They've heard plenty of rules.They've absorbed countless headlines.They've picked up advice from coworkers, friends, and financial media. But when you slow things down and ask a simple question — “Why are you doing it this way?” — the answer is often some version of, “That's just what I've always heard.” I recently sat down on the “Don't Retire… Graduate!” podcast with host Eric Brotman (author of “Don't Retire, Graduate” and previous guest of my podcast back in the “Retirement Revealed” days) to discuss why building a better retirement plan starts with asking better questions. Eric is the author of Don't Retire, Graduate, and his core message is relatable to everyone entering retirement: retirement isn't a finish line. It's a transition — and transitions deserve thoughtful planning, not assumptions. As Eric put it during our conversation, “Most people think retirement is a decision. It's not. It's a process.” Why One-Time Decisions Matter So Much to a Retirement Plan When you're working, mistakes are usually correctable. Save too little one year? You can increase contributions later. Invest poorly early on? Time often smooths things out. Retirement doesn't work that way. Retirement is full of one-way doors — decisions you can't easily undo. Social Security claiming. Pension elections. Medicare choices. Tax strategies.  Once those decisions are made, you often live with them for decades. This is where many retirement plans quietly fail. Not because the investments are bad, but because the planning skipped the hard questions upfront. The Quiet Problem of Underspending One of the most interesting threads in our conversation was something I see often with clients but rarely see addressed directly: underspending. People spend decades being disciplined savers. They're rewarded for delaying gratification. Then retirement arrives — and suddenly they're supposed to flip a switch and start spending confidently? That transition is harder than most people expect. Eric described it bluntly: “A lot of retirement plans are designed to avoid failure, not to support a great life.” When plans are built entirely around extremely high “success rates,” the tradeoff is often living smaller than necessary. Retirees follow conservative rules, spend cautiously, and end up with more money at the end of life than they started with — not because they needed it, but because no one ever gave them permission to use it. That's how an effort to preserve your money in retirement can turn into a missed opportunity. Why Rules of Thumb Aren't Enough Rules like the 4% withdrawal guideline exist for a reason — they're simple and memorable. But that simplicity comes at a cost. Rules of thumb can be useful starting points, they become problematic when people treat them as guarantees rather than guidelines that require context. Markets change. Taxes change. Spending changes. Life changes. A retirement plan that assumes constant spending and ignores flexibility is solving a math problem that doesn't exist in the real world. What works better is a framework that expects adjustment — not perfection. Retirement as a Graduation, Not an Ending The phrase “Don't retire, graduate” isn't about working forever. It's about intention. Some people want to fully step away from work. Others want to consult, volunteer, or stay mentally engaged. Neither approach is right or wrong — but drifting into retirement without deciding is where dissatisfaction often starts. What makes a difference for most retirees? Having a purpose to your life in retirement as a new chapter, not a conclusion to the entire book. When you treat retirement as a graduation into something new, the planning naturally becomes more thoughtful. Spending decisions align with values. Time gets treated as intentionally as money. And confidence replaces guesswork. The Real Goal of Retirement Planning At its core, this conversation wasn't about beating markets or optimizing spreadsheets. It was about aligning math with real life. A good retirement plan doesn't just aim to avoid running out of money. It aims to help you live well — without constant second-guessing. For many, effective retirement planning isn't about dying with the most money. It's about using the money you've earned to live well, without fear or constant second-guessing. That's a goal worth planning for. If you're approaching retirement — or already there — this episode will challenge some comfortable assumptions and help you think differently about what your plan is actually designed to do.

In this episode we answer emails from Sebastian, Mark, and James.  We discuss the purpose of treasury bond allocations, annuity cash flows, and where rentals fit, goofy accounting for taxes, a bridge to social security and answer questions about Testfolio and data sources.  And celebrate Catherine O'hara.And THEN we our go through our weekly and monthly portfolio reviews of the eight sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.Additional Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page:  Donate - Father McKenna CenterImmediate Annuities:  Immediate Annuities - Income Annuity Quote Calculator - ImmediateAnnuities.comPortfolio Charts Data Sources Page:  Data Sources – Portfolio ChartsBreathless Unedited AI-Bot SummaryMarkets threw a curveball this week: gold ripped, then slipped; small cap value popped; long bonds mostly yawned. We use the noise as a lesson in clarity—every asset in a risk parity mix has a job. Treasuries aren't for yield; they're for recession insurance and rebalancing power when stocks sag. Gold, managed futures, and value are there to diversify return drivers so you're not betting your future on a single story.We dig into a listener's Golden Ratio allocation with annuitized payouts and single-family rentals. The key is classification. Treat rentals as income if you're keeping them, or as a future lump sum if you plan to sell—but don't try to count both the cash flow and the equity for rebalancing. We also tackle the “can I replace treasuries with X?” question, and explain why the only valid substitute must reliably rise when recessions hit. If it won't go up when growth falls, it isn't doing the bond job.From there, we clean up two planning snags that trip up even seasoned DIY investors. First, the tax myth: don't “tax-adjust” asset values across accounts. Taxes are expenses, not asset haircuts. Optimize location, model annual tax liabilities, and keep the allocation true on the asset side. Second, Social Security modeling: the most practical move is to add it as an inflation-indexed future cash flow in a robust planner. If you need a present value for net worth, price a comparable inflation-adjusted deferred annuity instead of guessing with discount rates. For bridging years before benefits start, a TIPS ladder can unlock higher, earlier spending without warping your core portfolio.We wrap with a clear performance snapshot and withdrawals across eight sample portfolios, from the classic Golden Butterfly and Golden Ratio to levered experiments and a return-stacked build. The thread through it all is discipline: know each asset's purpose, keep cash intentional, rebalance when markets hand you spread, and let validated data—not hunches—drive decisions.Support the show

It's a thoughtful and, yes, sometimes political conversation—because as Georgia reminds us, taxes are political. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they applaud Border Czar Tom Homan for plainly explaining what ICE actually does and the clear line opponents cannot cross. They also groan as Democrats and left-wing activists keep smearing ICE as Nazis and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani pushes sweeping tax hikes.First, they welcome Tom Homan's calm, clear breakdown of how ICE is enforcing the same immigration and deportation laws that have been on the books for decades. He also explains where activists should go if they want policy changes and what consequences await those who continue to obstruct ICE operations.Next, they scold elected Democrats, left-wing media figures, and celebrities for their reckless rhetoric comparing ICE agents to Nazis and even suggesting consequences for Americans who support President Trump's immigration enforcement agenda. Jim and Greg also have some fun putting these people in their place.Finally, they get a kick out of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani claiming the city's finances are worse than during the 2008 financial crisis to justify the same tax hikes on the wealthy and corporations that he pushed during the campaign. Jim points out the history of Democrats feigning shock in order to demand taking more of our money.Please visit our great sponsors:Try QUO for free, PLUS get 20% off your first 6 months when you visit https://Quo.com/3MLTake your personal data back with Incogni.

Alicia walks through her systematic approach to year-end cleanup, explaining why many business owners' books contain errors that go unnoticed until tax time. She covers the most common trouble spots—from duplicate revenue in undeposited funds to improperly categorized transactions—and demonstrates how to use QuickBooks' built-in tools like the Reclassify feature and Report Options to fix problems at their source rather than just making adjusting journal entries. The episode emphasizes why proper cleanup matters: automations and banking feeds learn from past behavior, so correcting the underlying transactions prevents the same mistakes from recurring year after year.Sponsors(00:00) - Welcome to The Unofficial QuickBooks Accountants Podcast (00:25) - Year-End Cleanup for Tax Time (02:30) - Importance of Accurate Bookkeeping (04:32) - QuickBooks Tools for Cleanup (14:49) - Reconciling Accounts Properly (18:19) - Categorizing Transactions Correctly (20:51) - Adjusting Inventory and Equity (24:42) - Analyzing Reports for Anomalies (26:03) - Conclusion and Class Promotion Alicia's current classes: 1099s in QBO: http://royl.ws/QBO1099?affiliate=5393907, recording with CPEQBO Year-end Cleanup for Taxes: http://royl.ws/yearend?affiliate=5393907, recording with CPEProjects & Job Costing in QBO: http://royl.ws/ProjectCenter?affiliate=5393907, recording with CPESales Tax in QBO: http://royl.ws/SalesTax?affiliate=5393907, recording with CPEPayroll Perfection Bundles (4 QBO Payroll classes - 1099s, Running Payroll, Compliance, and QB Time), Live Feb 3-10: http://royl.ws/payroll-perfection?affiliate=5393907  We want to hear from you!Send your questions and comments to us at unofficialquickbookspodcast@gmail.com.Join our LinkedIn community at https://www.linkedin.com/groups/14630719/Visit our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/@UnofficialQuickBooksPodcast?sub_confirmation=1 Sign up to Earmark to earn free CPE for listening to this podcasthttps://www.earmark.app/onboarding

The state builds nothing. The state earns nothing. The state is money out. It is capital outflow to pay for the state to survive. To pay for the infrastructure that it owes.”
