In this episode, Christian and Kevin revisit the hot topic of the government's proposed inheritance tax (IHT) changes affecting pensions from 2027. Following a surge in listener interest, they clarify what's changed, who's now responsible, and what practical steps listeners must take to protect their wealth and family.Key Discussion Points:Background:The government plans to tax pensions on death, a major shift from past policy.The responsibility for reporting and paying this tax will now fall on personal representatives (executors), not financial services companies.Why This Matters:Most executors are chosen for trust, not financial knowledge.Executors are now legally liable for getting it right – mistakes could mean personal financial penalties.Practical Risks:Many people don't know where all their pensions are or which are taxable.Appointing a professional executor (like a bank) could cost families a significant portion of their inheritance, sometimes unnecessarily.Action Steps:Review your will and your choice of executors.Ensure your executor is financially savvy or has access to professional advice.Consolidate pensions where sensible for simplicity and clarity.Avoid defaulting to professional institutions as executors without understanding the costs.WealthBuilders' Support:WealthBuilders is creating two practical guides:For those making a will (how to choose an executor)For executors (what their new responsibilities entail)Guides will be available soon at wealthbuilders.co.uk/IHT and wealthbuilders.co.uk/executorFinal Advice:Awareness is key: know your assets, your will, and your executor's readiness.Take action now—don't wait until it's too late.Call to Action:Sign up for the forthcoming guides at wealthbuilders.co.uk/IHTReview your will and executor choicesShare this episode with anyone who has a pension and a familyContact WealthBuilders with questions or to book a call via the websiteResources Mentioned:Download our free guide on inheritance tax changes for pensions: wealthbuilders.co.uk/IHT Be the first to access our upcoming Guide for Executors — register your interest here: wealthbuilders.co.uk/executorCatch up on WealthTalks episode on IHT changes: How to Protect Your Pension from Inheritance Tax Changes Coming in 2027Connect with Us:Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and all major platforms.For more inspiring stories and actionable tips, subscribe to Wealth Talk and leave us a review!Next Steps On Your WealthBuilding Journey: Join the WealthBuilders Facebook CommunitySchedule a 1:1 call with one of our teamBecome a member of WealthBuildersIf you have been enjoying listening to WealthTalk - Please Leave Us A Review!If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review WealthTalk on your favourite podcast platform

Tech Roars, the Fed Waits Weekend Wisdom – Unlock Your Wealth with Heather Wagenhals   Markets ended the week with a familiar split: big tech led the charge while broader sectors lagged behind. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq posted gains, thanks in large part to Nvidia's explosive earnings beat and bullish AI outlook. Meanwhile, investors parsed Fed minutes and adjusted expectations around upcoming rate cuts.   In this Weekend Wisdom episode, Heather Wagenhals breaks down the week's key moves—including a closer look at Nvidia's influence, market breadth concerns, and what narrowing leadership means for smart investors. She also previews next week's crucial PCE inflation report, a short trading week due to Memorial Day, and the earnings reports that could shape sentiment heading into June.   Subscribe now and prepare your mindset before Monday.   Transcript:   From Fed Calm to Tech Triumph: Keeping Your Strategy on Track   This week brought a mix of cautious optimism and steady hands as investors weighed new data on consumer spending alongside subdued inflation updates. Markets appeared comfortable with the possibility of the Federal Reserve holding rates steady at upcoming meetings, boosting the broad sentiment.   “Welcome back, WealthBuilders—and those On Schedule to be a Millionaire. I'm Heather Wagenhals, and this is your Unlock Your Wealth Weekend Wisdom for Monday, May 19 through Friday, May 23, 2025.     Equity benchmarks rounded the week higher, bolstered by a blend of consumer spending data and favorable tech earnings. The Dow Jones rose nearly 0.9%, the S&P 500 gained around 1.2%, and the Nasdaq added roughly 1.4%—with tech stocks getting an extra push from upbeat forward guidance on AI and cloud services. Meanwhile, oil prices inched up to settle near $72 per barrel on resilient demand expectations, while gold dipped slightly after a calmer inflation read triggered less safe-haven buying. Bitcoin hovered around $32,000, suggesting a level of stability despite recent regulatory headlines. All eyes remained on the Federal Reserve's language surrounding interest rates, which hinted at a hold for now, calming some investor nerves. My Take     A cautiously positive tone seemed to define this week, illustrating how investor confidence can strengthen when there's some consensus about the Fed's next move. Fears of a rate hike took a backseat, and that breathing room gave growth-oriented sectors—especially tech—the momentum to climb. But remember, in investing as in life, clarity on policy doesn't eliminate risk; it simply shifts it. Keep your focus on fundamentals, diversify appropriately, and avoid chasing short-term market excitement.   What's Coming Up     Next week, be on the lookout for new housing data, which could provide additional clues about consumer resilience in a higher-rate environment. A handful of key earnings reports from retail giants will also shine a light on shifting consumer sentiment and spending patterns. On the economic calendar, jobless claims and a fresh consumer confidence reading may refine the market's outlook on whether the Fed truly stands pat at its next meeting. Stay poised for market swings as investors digest these signals and adjust portfolios accordingly.   Closing     Money Mantra (repeat in voice + show text): “I'm a strategic thinker with a clear financial plan and the commitment to see it through. Every smart choice I make today brings me one step closer to the life I desire.”   “That's your Unlock Your Wealth Weekend Wisdom. I'm Heather Wagenhals… Where we unpack the week's meaning, align your mindset for what's ahead, and build a strategy that lasts. Until next time, take deliberate action—and go out and Unlock Your Wealth today.”

Inflation Anticipation Freezes the Market   [Morning Market Mindset – Tuesday, May 13, 2025]   Markets are idling this morning as traders wait for tomorrow's inflation report — the Consumer Price Index — to set the tone for what's next.   Welcome back, WealthBuilders — and those on schedule to be a millionaire. I'm Heather Wagenhals, and this is your Morning Market Mindset for Tuesday, May 13th.   Market Snapshot U.S. stock futures are flat to slightly higher:   S&P 500 futures up just 0.1% Nasdaq futures showing mild strength, up 0.2% Dow futures hovering near the flatline     Investors appear cautious — the kind of stillness that comes before a potentially big move.   Earnings Watch Home Depot is the headliner this morning. The retail giant posted better-than-expected earnings despite weaker year-over-year sales, thanks to cost control and professional contractor demand. That's giving a read on both the housing market and consumer confidence. Coming up this week: Walmart, Target, and Cisco.   Economic Focus All eyes are on the April CPI release tomorrow. This is the Fed's preferred inflation barometer right now, especially as rate cut expectations remain volatile. A softer-than-expected number could reignite dovish hopes — while a hot print may squash them quickly.   Commodities & Global Markets   Crude oil is up nearly 1%, with WTI back above $79 a barrel on signs of tighter supply Gold is steady near $2,340 Bitcoin is consolidating around $62,000 as crypto traders also brace for CPI volatility     Interpretation Right now, we're in a classic holding pattern — markets are respecting the gravity of inflation data. This calm may be short-lived. Traders are positioning cautiously, not wanting to be caught on the wrong side of tomorrow's move. Whether you're long or in cash, today's mindset is all about preparing for opportunity — not guessing the print.   Money Mantra I'm a strategic thinker with a clear financial plan and the commitment to see it through. Every smart choice I make today brings me one step closer to the life I desire.   That's it for this morning. This has been your Unlock Your Wealth Morning Market Mindset, I'm Heather Wagenhals.   Where we interpret the markets calmly and clearly, so you can make smart financial choices, build wealth strategically, and live on purpose.   Until next time, take deliberate action, and go out and Unlock Your Wealth, today.   Like, folloow, subscribe UnlockYourWealth.com
