🚨 New video is live! 🚨

Trump Accounts are a brand-new, government-supported savings vehicle for kids — but there's a lot of confusion out there about who actually qualifies, how they're taxed, and how they compare to tools like 529 plans and UTMA/UGMA accounts.

In this video, I break down:
✅ What a Trump Account actually is (hint: it's a starter IRA, not a college fund)
✅ Who qualifies — and the birth-year window for the government seed contribution
✅ How contributions, custody, and the 6% excise tax on excess contributions work
✅ What happens when your child turns 18
✅ Tax-deferred vs. tax-free — and why the pro-rata rule matters
✅ Where Trump Accounts fit alongside 529 plans, Roth IRAs, and UTMA/UGMA accounts

"Should I pay off my house?" might be the question I hear most as a financial advisor — and the answer isn't just emotional, it's mathematical. A $250,000 mortgage at 3.5% is cheap debt by historical standards. Investing instead of paying it off early can leave you significantly ahead over 30 years — but the peace of mind of an owned home is worth something too. Here's how I help clients think through both sides. 🎥

Here's a scenario I use with clients all the time: two people, same $250,000 mortgage at 3.5%. One invests an extra $500/month instead of putting it toward the house. The other puts that $500 toward extra mortgage payments, pays the house off in about 17 years, then starts investing everything. After 30 years, the investor comes out around $204,000 ahead. The math doesn't always feel right — but it's worth seeing. 🎥

Cash feels safe. But leaving too much of it sitting in a checking account earning next to nothing quietly loses purchasing power to inflation every year. There's a real number for how much cash makes sense to keep on hand — and a much better place for the rest. Here's how I help clients find that balance. 🎥

At 73, the IRS wants their cut of the retirement accounts you've spent decades growing tax-deferred. That's what an RMD is. Example: a $500,000 IRA balance at age 75 means a required withdrawal of roughly $20,325 that year, based on the IRS life expectancy table. Miss it, and the penalty can be steep. Here's exactly how the number is calculated. 🎥

This is the question behind every other question I get. A simple starting point: the 4% rule. Need $60,000 a year from your investments? Divide that by 0.04 and you land around $1.5 million as a rough target. It's not the whole picture — but it's a benchmark almost anyone can use to see where they stand. 🎥
