    The Financial Tool People are Missing with Neal Brincefield

    In this episode of the WestPac Wealth Investments Podcast, Joe DeLisi welcomes Neal Brinsfield RICP®, CLU®, ChFC®, CExP™ for a conversation about financial planning, cash flow, risk, and what it really takes to create greater confidence around your financial future. Neal has spent nearly two decades in the financial services industry and has helped train and coach financial advisors on the Living Balance Sheet planning system. Joe and Neal discuss how financial worries change as wealth grows. The question may shift from “Do I have enough?” to “Am I doing the right things with what I have?”—but the need for thoughtful planning remains. They explore the role cash flow plays throughout a financial life, from accumulating wealth to eventually creating income in retirement. The conversation also looks at the limitations of relying solely on financial projections and Monte Carlo simulations, and why retirement planning should consider how income will actually be generated when a paycheck is no longer coming in. Joe and Neal also discuss risks that can be easy to overlook while building wealth, including protecting your ability to earn an income, liability exposure, disability, life insurance, and having the appropriate legal documents in place. Finally, they return to retirement and the relationship between reliable sources of income, investment portfolios, and financial confidence. It’s a practical conversation about looking at your financial life as a whole and building a strategy designed to help reduce worry along the way.
