    Don't Be a Forced Seller in a Down Market - Season 2, Episode 9

    Don't Be a Forced Seller in a Down Market - Season 2, Episode 9

    Few things in life are as frustrating as feeling forced to take an action that you know isn’t smart, strategic, or beneficial to you in the long run.

    But for a variety of reasons, certain circumstances can make you feel like selling your holdings—even during a market downturn—is your only option.

    Here at 210 Financial, we know that there is only one way to avoid making the kind of rash financial decisions that happen when you’re backed into a corner:

    Have a plan that keeps you out of that corner in the first place.

    In today’s conversation, Phil and Kendall share advice on how you can find out if you have a sequence of returns risk, how to play the long game and buy yourself time until the market goes back up, why—as we always say—having a plan that can likely stand up to unforeseen circumstances is the best way to set yourself up for financial success, and more.

    Challenging the Financial Concerns & Uncertainty of an Election Year - Season 2, Episode 8

    It’s 2024—and that means we’re already back in another election year.

    It’s no secret that election years bring all sorts of changes, but what does this transitional time mean when it comes to the topic of your finances?

    In this conversation, Phil and Kendall shed some much-needed light on this topic, explaining why our firm believes taxes will likely go up in the near future, why the IRS may be eyeing the untaxed money in your retirement accounts, whether who is president really makes a difference for our financial plan, why election years tend to lead to temporary volatility in the market, and more.
