Ice Cream, Whipped Cream, Cherries and Chocolate 22.08.2021

How do you get a dog to take that pill that you KNOW will create the healing that dog so desperately needs?  Hide it in peanut butter baby!  As I write my book " Peanut Butter Marketing " I thought I'd share a little of my " Secret Sauce " on how I've been able to help families make major financial decisions over the years.  It's really hard for people to move giant sums of money to a stranger...b...

The Mysterious Math of Market Movement 22.05.2021

The Stock Market, stock, bonds and mutual funds, is by far the most common place that I see Americans using as they attempt to grow their retirement accounts.   Though it pays the lowest income, compared to the alternatives, it is also the most common place that I see Americans using to invest their money while actually in retirement taking income from their accounts.  Yet I have met no one in eig...

Alcohol, Crack Cocaine and The Stock Market 15.11.2020

What do drugs have in common with the stock market...at least in the last twenty years?  If you said "Both can feel good in the short term but hurt you in the long run" you'd be right!  Since all of the modern, more up to date, financial tools and strategies provide more growth, and more income, than the stock market...wouldn't it make sense to begin to break this addiction we have?  Here's a bit...

Safety Is Stupid 16.06.2020

I am certainly not anti-safety but I do have an issue with what this industry tells people to do....to be "safe".   Emergency funds not keeping up with inflation, idol equity sitting inside of homes not earning compound interest and the big one: only using securities and calling that "diversification" all hurt today's retirement plans.  Listen in as I do a deep dive on what we call safety and how...

The Gift of No Fees 27.12.2019

One of the most common questions I get is "How can there be no fees?"  To which I respond "Why would you want to pay fees...you're doing these companies a favor letting them use your money"   How many people would drive from California to New York, spending time and gas money, if flights were free?  That's the situation we find ourselves in today as we choose how to build our retirement nest eggs....
