Legacy Matters - Your Guide to Estate Planning
I've been an advisor for 25 years and I'm also an estate planning attorney who's prepared thousands of estate plan portfolios. You've probably heard me say that no financial plan is good without an estate plan.
You can do a great job building up your nest egg during the accumulation phase, then switching to income investing during the retirement phase to make sure you never run out of money. But if you pass away and leave your estate a big mess for your kids so that a good chunk of it goes to attorney fees and probate - that's not wise. A good part of estate planning is making sure your assets are passed on to those you choose.
What are the vital components of a properly crafted estate plan? Listen in.

Early Retirement Account Withdrawals
"What if I need my retirement money early?"
As a general rule, I recommend that people roll over their 401(k) into an IRA at 59 1/2 or whenever they can; but there are cases in which it may be beneficial to leave the money in the 401(k) or withdraw it early: disability, financial hardship, being called up as a reservist, or even becoming a first-time home buyer or paying for higher education. But a lot of these exceptions need to be used with caution, and that's what we're going to spend our time talking about in this show.
We also have several listener questions which are relevant to this topic. Listen in.

The Final Countdown: Pre-Retirement Planning Essentials
When should you actually start planning for retirement? If you're 10 years away from it, is it too soon or is it too late? It's not uncommon for someone to call us and say they're retiring within a few months and they don't want to make any mistakes.
Over the last 25 years, we've had two major market crashes at around 50%. We have not had a crash in 15 years. If you wait until the last minute to plan your retirement, what happens if the market tanks? Will you be able to retire?
If these questions raise more questions for you, you may want to listen in.

Are You Making These Money-Wasting Mistakes in Retirement?
It's all about income on today's show: we're going to talk about ways that you may be wasting money during retirement or may be leaving money on the table through unclaimed benefits you're not taking advantage of or investment strategies you're not aware of.
Some people have actually saved enough money where they can retire with as much income as they need; most of you may not be able to do that and may have to cut back on expenses a bit.
The income equation has two sides: offense and defense.
On the offensive side:
- are you investing properly and trying to maximize your income?
- where can you save money?
- can you get more money from Social Security or from your investments?
- do you have too much money sitting in the bank earning nothing?
On the defensive side:
- are you spending too much?
- should you downsize your home?
- do you have the wrong type of health care coverage?
- do you have major expenses with parents and children at the same time?
Listen in for more.

How to Find the Right Financial Advisor
If I blew out my knee, I certainly wouldn't trust myself to fix it. I'm not a doctor, I'm a financial advisor. I'd try my hardest to find the best doctor who could diagnose and fix my knee.
When you're younger, you can afford to make mistakes because you have more time to overcome them. When you're older, you can't afford to mess up anymore; you may have done a great job of growing your portfolio but, when you get to retirement, the strategy shifts.
So if you think you may benefit from the advice of a financial advisor after years of DIY, how can you find one? What should you look for in an advisor? What different types of advisors are there, and which one is appropriate for you?
Listen in to find out.

Are You Taking Too Much Investment Risk?
Are you taking too much risk within your investment portfolio depending on the stage of life you find yourself in?
In this week's podcast, we talk about good risk and bad risk and the difference between left and right brain investing (sounds a bit woo-woo but stick with me). Good risk is the risk of volatility. Bad risk is the risk of loss and it usually occurs when you're not diversified enough - not just within an asset class, but among different asset classes.
Listen in.
