Most plans aren’t tested when things go right.

In this week’s Smart Money in the Soo, we talk about the parts of your financial plan that matter most when life doesn’t go as expected.

Things like beneficiary designations, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives — the details people often set once and forget.

But these are the pieces that show up in real moments, not just annual reviews.

When was the last time you actually looked at yours?

An inheritance is one of the only times money shows up before the plan does.

In this week’s Smart Money in the Soo, we talk about what happens when someone inherits money — and why the first move isn’t always the right move.

Inherited accounts can come with rules, timelines, and tax implications that aren’t always obvious at first glance.

Taking a step back before making big decisions can help you avoid costly mistakes later.

If you’ve recently inherited money, this is one of those moments where a little guidance can go a long way.

A new job isn’t just a career move. It’s a financial one.

In this week’s Smart Money in the Soo, we break down what often gets overlooked during a job change.

From old retirement accounts to vesting schedules to health coverage gaps — there’s more happening behind the scenes than most people realize.

Before focusing only on what you’re stepping into, it’s worth understanding what you might be leaving behind.

Have you ever been surprised by something financial during a job transition?

Nobody plans to manage their finances alone for the first time at 58.

In this week’s Smart Money in the Soo, we talk about one of the most difficult transitions someone can face — losing a spouse or going through divorce.

The first financial decisions are often the biggest ones… and they’re happening during an emotional time.

One of the most important things you can do early on is slow things down and avoid making permanent decisions too quickly.

If you or someone you know is navigating this, having the right support can make all the difference.

Life doesn’t always give you time to prepare.

In this week’s Smart Money in the Soo, we’re introducing a series focused on life transitions — the moments that change everything. Whether it’s losing a spouse, navigating an inheritance, or making a major career shift, these situations often come with big decisions and very little clarity.

That’s exactly why we built our practice the way we did. Over the next few weeks, we’ll walk through how to think about these moments more clearly — and avoid some of the most common mistakes.

“More than just investments. We help care for you and your loved ones.”
— David Scott, CFP®

I had the honor of having breakfast with LPL Financial Chairman Jim Putnam at FOCUS 2026 and getting to know the man behind the title.

Jim’s history with LPL spans 43 years, helping build and lead what has become the No. 1 Independent Broker-Dealer in the U.S.* Yet what struck me most was how incredibly down-to-earth he is. He took time out of his busy schedule to ask me a simple question: How can LPL help you provide an even better experience for your clients?

We hit it off. Our values and philosophies about taking care of people are remarkably similar—and his passion for supporting LPL’s 32,000+ advisors so we can take exceptional care of our clients is genuine.

And my good friend Scottie, pictured with us, is that philosophy in action. He’s taken great care of us for years.

Backed by the resources of an organization with approximately $2 trillion in advisory and brokerage assets allowing Nick Kibble and me to focus on what matters most—the personal care of our clients and their families right here at home.

World-class resources. Local relationships. Personal care.

*Based on total revenues.

You might not be in a lower tax bracket in retirement.

In this week’s Smart Money in the Soo, we break down a common assumption around retirement taxes — and why it doesn’t always play out that way.

When income starts coming from multiple sources, like Social Security and retirement accounts, taxes can become more complex than expected.

It’s not just about how much you have — it’s about how it’s structured.

Has anyone ever walked you through what your tax picture could look like in retirement?

Most people know their number. Fewer know their first year.

In this week’s Smart Money in the Soo, we talk about what retirement readiness really means.

It’s not just about hitting a number — it’s about understanding how your spending may change in the early years, from healthcare to travel to everyday life.

The first 12–24 months can look very different than people expect.

Have you thought about what your first year of retirement might actually cost?

One of the biggest retirement risks isn’t financial.

In this week’s Smart Money in the Soo, we explore a risk that often gets overlooked in retirement: isolation.

Losing the built-in social structure of work can impact more than your day-to-day — it can influence decisions, spending habits, and even vulnerability to scams.

Reminder: retirement isn’t just about what you’re leaving.

It’s also about what you’re building.

Retirement changes more than your schedule.

In this week’s Smart Money in the Soo, we talk about something people don’t always expect in retirement — the shift in identity.

When work slows down, purpose and routine can shift too. The people who navigate it best tend to have a plan for more than just income — they have a plan for how they want to spend their time.

If your retirement plan is only focused on the numbers, it might be missing something.

What are you most looking forward to in retirement?
