Individual Health Insurance | Interview With Josh Scandlen
Individual Health Insurance | Interview With Josh Scandlen My Interview on Josh Scandlen’s Channel We review the free quoting tool for individual health insurance. Josh knows what to ask, and how. He’s like the Pied Piper, it’s very clear why. He has the energy and enthusiasm that will appeal to many. He’s almost an OG of the book, he and I share the idea that “we don’t care where the money or costs originate, we are trying to help people realize that it is the overall amount that matters.” So, Josh has corre...

Michelle Stirling, From Friends of Science, and I Discuss Climate Alarmism
It breaks my heart that so many adults are convincing children that they're going to die in a climate apocalypse. It's no wonder why folks such as AOC say they're not going to bring kids into the world because of this scare-mongering. Yet, scare-mongering is all it is. It's not true. And the adults if they had any sense of dignity should be ashamed of themselves. Unfortunately, when there is so much money at stake, shame takes a back-seat. It's all about dollars, and how some people can get more and more. Using kids, and anim...

Mississippi is VERY favorable for retirees when it comes to taxes. In fact, it's going to incredibly hard to beat the great state of Mississippi in terms of the taxes retirees pay.

Mississippi exempts ALL retirement income from tax, not only Social Security but IRA, 401ks, 403bs, TSP and pensions. Are all exempt from taxation! That is ama...

Retirees: It's OKAY To Spend Money In Retirement!
There is ample evidence that retirees are not only NOT going to run out of money but they are also NOT spending enough during their retirement. We can attribute this frugality to many things but hopefully it's based on a reasoned assessment and not some perceived fear that doesn't exist. Remember, you can't take it with you.

Should you borrow from your 401k to finance a vehicle? In this video we model scenarios as to when it makes sense. First thing to understand is how a 401k loan actually works. You can borrow up to 50% of your balance or $50k, whichever is less. So if you have $10k in your 401k, you can borrow $5k. If you have $50k in your 401k, you can borrow $25k.

How GEORGIA Taxes Retirees
Georgia taxes for retirees are among the lowest in the nation. In fact, Georgia ranks in my top 8 for most friendliest towards retirees! Georgia is even more tax-friendly than its neighbor to the north, Tennessee even though Tennessee has no income tax. Weird right? And this is a perfect example of the need to look beyond just the states with no income tax as a place to retire that is tax-friendly. For example, in GA, if you are married and have income up to $130k, there is NO T...

How To Evaluate Mutual Fund Fees - (Revolutionary FREE Tool)

Live in Maryland - Do NOT Rollover Your 401k, 403b or TSP!!!
If you are planning on retiring in Maryland, do NOT rollover your employer sponsored retirement plan, 401k, 403B, 401a, 457, and TSP unless you want to pay more in tax. And when I say more in tax, I mean much, much more. Maryland tax law allows you to exclude $29,900 from your employer sponsored plan once you are over 65 years old, per taxpayer. Which means a married couple could exclude nearly $60k from taxable income. Maryland also excludes your entire Social Security income from taxes too. So if...

What You Need To Know About Durable Powers of Attorney
A Durable Power of Attorney is one of the MOST important aspects of estate planning. And yet, it seems to be the one area that is least understood. What a Durable Power of Attorney does is allow someone to act on your financial affairs, as if they were you, even after you've been declared incapacitated. A "Durable" Power literally means is survives incapacity. A "General" Power stops at incapacity. It's CRUCIAL to understand the difference! If your Power of Attorney is not durable, it will ce...

How Bad Luck Will Destroy Your Retirement Plan
In the previous episode (https://youtu.be/S34U7tDqr4w) we discussed how Dave Ramsey made the HUGE mistake in mixing average market returns with volatility. It is true the market has returned over 10% a year since 1926. However, the mistake Dave makes is assuming that means one can take a distribution of anything less than 10% and NEVER TOUCH PRINCIPAL. This is a horrendous mistake to make. And for those who follow that advice they could easily find themselves out of money before they are out of time.

But like all things, only those with the knowledge of the bill will benefit. Is it any wonder why corporations and other entities spend so much money lobbying Congress for just a line item? No, because they are knowledgeable of what they need to pay less. And they'll spend tooth and nail to try to enact that provision. But just because you don't have a mu...

How a Roth IRA Affects Financial Aid
I had NO clue that distributions from Roth IRAs are used on your FAFSA and can affect your ability for need-based aid. But they do! Let me repeat that. ..Distributions from Roth IRAs are used in your FAFSA as a way to determine how much your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is. Thus, if you have a Roth and thought you could pull from it, tax free, well you'd be right... BUT, that doesn't mean this is a good idea. Not if you think you can get need based aid.
