Welcome to the Caffeine & Cash Flow Podcast with Financial Advisor Michael Schulte of WestPac Wealth Partners.
Are taxes, market volatility, inflation and other risks draining YOUR energy and YOUR portfolio? If you need help planning how to tackle these financial headwinds, then this is the show for you!
Almost everyone has made investment mistakes at some point. Even the most successful investors have regrets about decisions they’ve made in the past. But like everything else in life, it’s all about how you respond to a misstep.
Is there ever a right time to stop contributing to your 401k? Should you help your daughter and her boyfriend with their home purchase? What about deciding to retire at the peak of your earnings? Tune into this episode of Caffeine and Cash Flow where we tackle these questions and more.
From figuring out the right time to be debt-free and when to adjust your portfolio risk, to deciding when to plan for your Social Security benefits or healthcare coverage, this episode guides you through the ideal timeline for each.
Are you ready to take control of your finances during life’s most pivotal moments? In this episode, we dive into the complex world of financial decision-making during key life events.
It’s not just the financially uncertain who need to think carefully about their retirement plan. Even those who feel confident in their retirement savings might still have important questions to answer and decisions to make. In this episode, we’ll explore the three retirement planning mindsets: those who have no idea if they can retire, those who think they have enough money to retire, and those who know for sure they have enough money to retire.
Welcome to part two of our series about retirement planning mistakes. Last time, we talked about the pitfalls of ignoring tax implications, failing to diversify your investments, and procrastinating when starting your investments. On today’s show, we’ll share seven more mistakes people often make when planning their retirement.
There are times when, as your advisor, I must point out that things we might have taken for granted in the past, like assuming the S&P 500 index is automatically a good diversification of your money and use it as a litmus test to compare how we are doing in your portfolio, is not actually holding up. On its face a basket of 500 stocks would seem to be the definition of diversification. But it’s not. Not right now.
This won’t be the most exotic blog post you will ever read, but stick with me here. If you own whole life insurance or are considering purchasing whole life insurance, then you want to read this article.
