The average interest rate on the 30 year loan caused a 4.1% decline in mortgage. Thinking about interest rates I start today’s show by talking about exercising non-qualified stock options and paying taxes on them in retirement. I also discuss taking advantage of low interest and bond rates by paying off your mortgage going into retirement and why this wasn’t necessarily the best idea in the past. Other topics include:

Can companies have swagger? Today Rob discusses companies like Netflix that definitely have swagger.
Is Netflix a tech stock, a media stock or a combination of both? Netflix just blew past subscriber growth expectations, hitting all time highs, when just 1 week ago investors were wary after Disney’s decision to pull their content. Which is more important content or the delivery of content? Today Rob takes on the topic of companies like Netflix with swagger. Other topics include:

Today I discuss planning that begins in mid-October and being prepared when natural disasters strike.
It’s already mid-October which means if you filed an extension Monday the 16th is the final day to file your tax return. Now is the time to get serious about planning for 2017 if you are self employed. Your options may be limited for this year, but good there are still good retirement plans you can begin funding. Another thing that happens in October is open enrollment for Medicare; retirees should rethink their coverage. I also take a moment to cover major preparedness issues stemming from the Santa Rosa fires such as reviewing your home owners insurance and having a password manager. Other topics include

California is on fire and evacuees are rethinking their options. Prepare yourself for disasters by reviewing what your insurance covers.
When disaster strikes none of us are as prepared as we would like to be. One of the things we can do before something happens is access your insurance coverage and make updates where you need them. Save yourself the headache by reviewing your policies now before disaster hits and you are left with the rebuild costs. Other topics include:

The media is dissecting the framework for Trump’s tax package. Today I examine its possible effect on companies and our need for simple tax codes
You’ve probably heard through every available media source something about President Trump’s tax plan. Today I discuss a Bloomberg article that lists companies already paying below the median effective tax rate and examine how it relates to our push for a simplified tax code. How bad has the identity theft crisis gotten? Officials in the Nebraska Department of Insurance state identity theft is beginning to affect annuities, an interesting turn for “safe” brokerage accounts. Other topics include:
