On today’s show, we’re excited to delve into the meat and potatoes of finance with you and tackle questions like, “What are the chances of a soft landing in this economy?”

And, “What about those final RMD regulations being issued we’ve heard so much about?” (Well … maybe not so much on the RMDs.) Still, we intend to explore the recent tax law changes and provide you the stats we think could be helpful regarding the economic front. In the end, we think discussing these issues and answering your questions is well worth your time. So whatever it is you’re looking for on the financial planning front, we’re here to help! As always, Deann will conclude the show with stats related to the economic content.

Episode 409 - Whiplash, Retirement Account Opportunities and Mistakes During Market Volatility 37:16

6 days ago37:16

37:16

Significant fluctuations in the stock market, along with increasing discussions about a potential recession, can certainly unnerve most investors. Some, however, view this as an opportunity, while others resort to panicked decisions that create even more unnecessary pain. Clearly, it is important for all of us retirement account savers to identify potential opportunities and avoid mistakes. On today’s show, we’ll review Ed Slott’s May newsletter, which touches upon this very issue, and talk about handling fluctuations as well as opportunities you might want to take advantage of given today’s realities. There’s lots to talk about this week, so we hope you can join us! If not, the podcast is available through our website, proutfinancialdesign.com, under the heading “Radio Shows.” Tune in and take control!…

Episode 408 - Whither Social Security? 45:28

Today’s show will feature special guest Bob Simpson, the star of the local Social Security scene who kept his shirt on and was still famous. The fact that we were able to lure him out of his recent retirement to come on and speak to us about Social Security is a gift in and of itself, which we think you’ll love! We’ll review all the goings on with Social Security. Then, we’ll catch you up on the realities of Social Security, how to navigate the questions of collecting, and how to get your benefits when the time comes for you to retire! What more could you ask for? And we’d love to hear from you. Bob had decades to learn his craft and is excited to share all the latest. Tune in and take control!…

Episode 404 - It’s the Economy (Not So) Stupid! 43:12

11 days ago43:12

43:12

Trying to ascertain the direction of the current economy and the stock market is not an easily ascertainable thing. And, yes, I’ve purposely used “ascertain” twice in the previous sentence to help make the point that even the experts are puzzled by the conflagration of stats that are coming out. Sometimes, history can help us. Other times, numbers are pointing to the fact that the S&P 500 is now down 10% this year and is a relatively significant amount historically. While its average decline is 13.8%, the number of times the market has declined 10% or more since 1928 has only occurred 33 times. On today’s show, there’s lots to talk about with the stats, and Heidi will be discussing the article on Social Security by Heather Schreiber titled “5 Golden Nuggets: Warnings and Winning Moves.” Speaking of uncertainty, Social Security is in the spotlight, and we think it is a good time to discuss it in more detail. We’ll highlight information and answer your questions as they arise. Tune in and take control!…

There are so many confusing areas related to estate planning … like the importance of creating a power of attorney before a will. Plus, there’s the fact that NO ONE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT IT! On today’s show, we have Cortney Danbrook, a local estate planning attorney, to talk about the real issues related to aging, including the critical, ground-related issues of planning your estate and its interrelation to your health, children, spouse or significant other, and charities. It’s an ambitious list, but we’ll do our best to fit it all in. Our goal is to inform and apprise so you can forge ahead and make progress in your own personal situation to improve your lot for you and your family. Tune in and take control!…

Episode 411 - Protecting Your Portfolio During a Correction 39:27

39:27

Just when you thought it was safe to go outside (it is spring after all), the neighbor’s dog barks extra loudly and startles you … right? Similarly, most of the time, the stock market seems to make us climb a wall of worry. Even though the market appears to have mostly recovered from its recent correction, indeed many analysts proclaim we may still have to pay for fiddling with Chinese tariffs. Today, just because you would like a port in the storm, a strong voice of reason, or an intelligent argument as to why the proverbial dog barking is not a problem for you … here we are! On today’s show, we’ll talk about tariffs, the markets and the analyses we’re reading to help you ascertain where the opportunities might be and where and how you might participate. If you have questions, text or call us on the radio, we’d love to hear from you! Tune in and take control!…

Episode 406 - Unlocking the Full Potential of Proactive Tax Management; or, Not All Money Is Taxed the Same! 42:33

5 weeks ago42:33

42:33

As the “celebration” of April 15th nears, the importance of tax planning remains critical. What celebration, you ask? The celebration that they’re done, of course. On today’s show, we’ll discuss the seven components of winning at taxes, especially after you’ve retired. The bottom line is that the savings you can take advantage of can be significant and leave you with a lot more after-tax dollars to use more efficiently in retirement. Next, Heidi will review an article from Kiplinger called “16 Retirement Mistakes You Will Regret Forever.” We agree with many of these mistakes, but not all of them. We’ll discuss why and how these can make a real difference in your world. Tune in and take control!…

Episode 407 - Tariffs – Chaos or Control 33:38

6 weeks ago33:38

33:38

Wow, what a week it’s been! The Dow Jones and S&P 500 are down about 10 percent, which is causing significant fear among investors. Some are even questioning the current administration’s policy on tariffs and their effect on the stock market. On today’s show, we’ll discuss what tariffs do, their purpose, and their advantages as well as drawbacks. We’ll also discuss how previous stock markets have responded historically in order to find the valuation gauges that might be helpful, and even profitable. While the fear index has certainly been jumping, we’ll learn what we can and gain some perspective to educate and expand our ability to navigate this new world. Tune in and take control!…

Episode 405 - Twofer Thursday! 44:20

9 weeks ago44:20

44:20

On today’s show, we’ll cover two very important – yet very different – topics. First, there are five retirement account moves you can still make for 2024. Yes, it’s amazing what you might still decide to do given the law and your own financial situation, especially if you’d like to save on taxes as well as some extra dollars. You might be a bit surprised, so be sure to listen in to see if there’s something here for you! Second, we’ll review an article from Capital Group called “Will economic uncertainty knock the Fed off course?” Some might say that the Fed already seems to be playing second fiddle with policy, and today we’ll hear why that might be the case. It would appear the Fed is taking a “wait-and-see” approach to allow the smoke of uncertainty to clear and thus allow them to make a solid decision. We’ll discuss this with lots of background information and stats to help bolster your situation. Tune in and take control!…

Episode 403 - Investing Under Trump 2.0: The Effects of Tariffs, Declining U.S. Government Spending and Employment 40:33

10 weeks ago40:33

40:33

Well, we’ve known for almost four months Trump was going to be the next U.S. president. What we couldn’t have guessed, however, was the effect on spending his new administration was going to have. From higher tariff potential to massive cost-cutting, the changes have been so fast and furious that politicians, especially Democrats, are said to not be sure how or where to respond. On today’s show, we’ll look at possible scenarios stemming from these changes and discuss their short- and long-term effects. The ultimate winners? Likely, companies that can successfully navigate policy and technology shifts. For yourself, while these uncertainties can be unnerving, getting through these changes within this economy can present its own opportunity. That’s what we’ll highlight for you this week!

Castagni, Simbulami, Arancini. These foreign words are here to prove a point … for most people, they may not make any sense. And sometimes what we discuss on our show may not make sense to some listeners. But just because it doesn’t make sense, we should try not to discount what it might mean. On today’s show, we’ll discuss five common rollover mistakes that can be very costly, and the importance of seeking good counsel when making big decisions. You wouldn’t believe what 401(k) providers have told us over the years regarding participants making incorrect, costly decisions when rolling over their retirement account to an IRA. Then, Heidi will discuss Ed Slott’s interview on Morningstar titled, “How You Can Turn Tax-Time Pain Into a Win,” where he explains and gives examples of how pre-planning for taxes can make a significant difference during the tax season. It should be very helpful information as we approach April 15. Tune in and take control!…

Episode 398 - Am I Too Rich for a Roth IRA? 41:39

17 weeks ago41:39

41:39

The New Year begins, and already there’s so much to consider on the financial front! On this week’s show we’ll discuss whether or not you could be “too rich” for a Roth IRA. Congress has set income limits on Roth contributions, and for those married filing jointly, no contributions are allowed for those with taxable incomes over $246,000 (for single filers, the amount is $165,000). While the income limits can be a source of frustration, there are many ways to circumvent these restrictions for those looking to invest in these accounts … and the ways to do so keep growing! Next, Heidi will discuss catch-up contributions for retirement accounts. While Congress has complicated these, the opportunities have been expanded to save for your retirement more aggressively. While we don’t often promote being aggressive, it could make sense in this case! We’ll have several examples for you of where this could make sense and how you might take advantage. And last, Beth Shier joins us with this week’s stats as well as some surprising information to help you keep your perspective. Tune in and take control!…

Episode 395 - We're Back LIVE in 2025 42:23

17 weeks ago42:23

42:23

We are so looking forward to joining you via the airwaves in 2025! 2024 has been a year of challenges, surprises, market volatility, political unrest … and yet WE MADE IT. As we set foot into the future and ponder what this year could hold for the economy, Dennis and Nathan will discuss Capital Group’s “2025 Outlook: Long-Term Perspective on Markets and Economies,” which describes the current U.S. economy as the “Benjamin Button Economy.” What on earth does that mean? Capital Group economists are comparing the 2008 film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, in which the main character’s age reverses, to the total returns of U.S. stocks by stage of business cycle. Is it possible that the U.S. business cycle appears to be aging in reverse? If so, what does that mean for us? On January 5, President Biden signed the Social Security Fairness Act into law. This is thought to be one of the biggest changes to Social Security in decades. Dennis will break down the Social Security Fairness Act and discuss the changes it will bring and who might benefit. As you can see, there’s lots to discuss, and we look forward to your calls and texts. Tune in and take control!…

Episode 397 - Navigating Risks and Capitalizing on Opportunities in 2025 44:49

17 weeks ago44:49

44:49

On today’s show, we’ll discuss Ed Slott’s thoughts on significant IRA rulings for 2024, as well as the “Five Keys to Investing in 2025,” by Capital Group. As you can guess, there are many discussions among market analysts regarding the opportunities and the risks we can expect in 2025. We (Dennis Prout, Heidi Cartwright and Beth Shier) intend to do some of the same, but with a twist. The difference, we think, is that when making investment decisions, you need to think like an “owner,” i.e., you need to think longer term. The excuses we might try to make only tend to cause things to turn worse. We think we can discuss these mistakes and help you attempt to make better decisions in the future. There’s a lot to discuss in less than an hour, and we look forward to having you join the conversation. Tune in and take control!…
