The type of things that if it sounds too good to be true, we should be asking a LOT of questions.

    Is It Too Good To Be True?

    At this time of the year, the office is getting a flurry of phone calls about tax season. While most clients are calling about their regular tax planning, we are always surprised about the number of clients who reach out with questions about a new tax “strategy” that they saw online. The idea: I’m going to beat the system! ...Not so fast. In this week’s episode, Marc and Marion track how the idea of “beating the system” has been around since they both started in the industry, and how it often doesn’t lead them anywhere.

    What Is A Gray Divorce?

    Have you ever heard of the term “gray divorce”? If not – it might be something you become more aware of as you get further into retirement. Put simply, a gray divorce is when a couple over the age of 50 separates, typically once the kids are out of the house (but not always). In this week’s episode of the show, Marc and Marion dissect what they notice about this trend and what some of the signs of a gray divorce are – including increased women’s independence, desires for travel, decades of the same routines and more.

    Generational Divides

    On this episode of Dollars & Sense, Marc and Christian dig into how each generation is reshaping the way they save—and spend. The duo discusses retirees who’ve saved so well they’re now searching for meaningful ways to enjoy their money, often through travel. They also break down why Gen Z is saving aggressively but avoiding traditional investments, and why Millennials are leaning toward fast, gamified platforms like Robinhood, crypto, and even sports betting. In the end, they explore what people really want from their money today—and what it all means for long‑term financial planning.
