Could interest rates be rising again? Possibly not, here are a few things that may help decrease the risk of a huge jump in rates.

When I got into the business 24 years ago the rate on the 10 year treasury was around 6.6%. Today we just hit 3% so how will that affect your bonds? Other topics include:

• What is preventing rates from rapidly rising?
• Passive investing issues – could indexing be creating a bubble in certain stocks?
• Taxpayers will owe more in 2019 due to under withholding – California and Oregon are you withholding enough taxes?
• How does the increasing trillion dollar deficit factor into future prospects?
• Long term care insurance planning
• Life insurance policies with long term care and sleazy insurance agents
