    How to Inflation-Proof Your Retirement

    How to Inflation-Proof Your Retirement

    I've done quite a few interviews recently and the main questions always seem to be: where are we now when it comes to the economy, where are we going and how can we protect ourselves.
    My answer usually starts with inflation which has been hot but is finally showing signs of cooling off - not by a lot but we'll take whatever we can get. I explain why we have inflation in the first place and also cover wage inflation and how those costs get passed on to the consumer. 
    As a retiree, how can you protect yourself against rising inflation as you move 10, 20 and 30 years into retirement? My number one tip is to start planning early - a good 10 years or more before you retire. 
    Listen in for more.

    Life and Long Term Care Insurance

    Life and Long Term Care Insurance

    How does Long Term Care insurance work? If you're in the camp that thinks, "I don't need it", you may simply not know enough about it yet, especially when it comes to the newer types of policies available. 
    Life Insurance on the other hand is thought of by most as a "necessary evil" - but as you'll find out after this show, it's actually a wise piece of the puzzle in any sound financial portfolio. Listen in.

    Interest Rates - What Can We Expect and How Will It Impact Retirees

    Interest Rates - What Can We Expect and How Will It Impact Retirees

    "What will the Federal Reserve do with interest rates in the near future and how will it affect my retirement?" This seems to be the question on everyone's mind lately, as news reports about the state of the economy come out seemingly weekly. The problem is, the leading authorities are great at spinning these reports in whatever way suits them best. 
    Apparently, the FED is getting inflation under control and GDP is slowing down to around 1%/year compared to 3.7% last year. The 10 year Treasury had been hovering around 4.6%, then dropped to 4.5%, then to. 4.4% just 2 days after the CCI report came. 
    This is important because when interest rates go up, the value of all financial assets tends to go down; the opposite is also true. So what's happening now is that everyone is speculating as to when the FED will start lowering interest rates. Listen in for my thoughts.

VW James ,

Invaluable information

This is by far the best short-to-medium length financial planning resource I’ve found online. I’ve learned more after a week listening than my whole life prior, no joke. Anthony Saccaro is a very personable, humble guy but you can tell he’s been around and really knows his stuff. Just ordered the book!

faithandstitches ,

retirement planning advice you can actually understand

Anthony is a master at explaining complicated financial terms in words you can understand. Gives good analyses of what’s going on with the market and how it affects your investments.

eureka homesteader ,

Not helpful

You need to get to the Kay points sooner. 80% fluff and 20% content.
