Living longer changes almost every assumption behind traditional retirement planning. As more Americans reach retirement age and potentially spend decades in retirement, planning must extend well beyond simply building a large enough portfolio. Richard Rosso and Jonathan "Smarty" McCarty examine the financial realities of longevity, including the fear of running out of money, identifying reliable retirement income sources, withdrawal and tax strategies, long-term care and hybrid insurance policies, estate planning, charitable giving, inheritances, housing decisions, and determining which risks you can absorb versus those you should mitigate. Plus, they discuss the lack of credentials among some financial influencers, alternative ways to measure inflation and healthcare costs, the state of workplace financial and retirement-planning benefits, and the provocative question of whether advances in artificial intelligence represent another major societal turning point. Living to 100 may sound like a blessing, but financially preparing for it requires a very different retirement plan. 0:00 - INTRO 0:20 - Finfluencers (financial influencers) Lack Credentials 6:52- Tracking Inflation w Multiple Metrics - Healthcare Cost Index 9:20 - State of the Workplace - Financial Benefits & Retirement Planning Assistance 11:03 - AI is self-aware: The Fifth Turning 13:23 - Planning for Longevity 16:05 - Estate Planning in Longevity Planning 18:13 - The Silver Tsunami - American's Turning 65 & Living Longer 21:13 - American's Working Longer - Longevity Coaching deficit 23:18 - The Longevity Checklist - Living to 100 25:31 - The Fear of Running Out of Money - Know the Reliability of Income Sources 28:23 - Withdrawal Strategies and Taxes in Old Age - Gifting and Charitable Intent 29:46 - Home Renovation Planning 32:04 - Longterm Care Insurance - Hybrid policies 33:13 - Living Will Directives & Inheritances 36:06 - Rockefeller's Donor Farm 37:45 - Understanding Risks to Absorb vs Risks to Mitigate Hosted by RIA Advisors' Director of Financial Planning, Richard Rosso, CFP, w Senior Investment Advisor, Jonathan McCarty, CFP Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Do you enjoy our content?

The Federal Reserve raised interest rates for the first time in three years, but for investors, the bigger question is what comes next. Lance Roberts and Michael Lebowitz break down what the Fed said, what Chairman Kevin Warsh signaled about inflation and future monetary policy, and why the Fed's updated rate projections matter for markets. With most policymakers anticipating another rate increase this year, is this the beginning of a new tightening cycle, or could the Fed be closer to "one and done"? What could higher rates mean for stocks, bonds, economic growth, and portfolio strategy as investors look toward the Fed's remaining meetings in 2026? 0:00 INTRO 1:12 - Retail Sales Better than Expected 3:20 - Market Reaction to Rate Hike, Dot Plots, & Commentary 5:14 - Room for a Rally?

Markets reversed sharply after Fed Chair Kevin Warsh signaled another potential rate hike by year-end and no rate cuts next year. Now the S&P 500 is testing support near the 100-day moving average as investors reassess what tighter monetary policy could mean for stocks. Historically, markets have tended to struggle during the first three months after the Fed begins hiking rates before recovering over the following year. But history is an average, not a forecast. With earnings still strong, corporate interest coverage at historically high levels, and bond yields already doing some of the Fed's tightening work, this cycle could play out differently. Lance Roberts examines the S&P 500's 50-DMA, 100-DMA, and 200-DMA support levels, the potential downside toward 7,200–7,000, and why risk management could become increasingly important if the Fed hikes again.

Markets broke below the 50-DMA and their recent consolidation range, but does that signal a deeper correction or set the stage for a reflexive rally? With stocks becoming increasingly oversold, today's FOMC meeting could provide the catalyst for the market's next move. Meanwhile, oil remains an important wildcard. High energy and diesel prices can weigh on consumers, transportation, inflation, and economic growth, while a reversal in oil could ease inflation pressure, give the Fed more breathing room, and potentially provide relief for bond yields. Lance Roberts examines the market's technical setup, why a sustained break of the 50-DMA matters more than a one-day move, and how oil prices could influence stocks, inflation, interest rates, and the economy through year-end.

AI slowdown fears pressured stocks Monday, but the market held support at the 50-DMA as investors began looking past the headlines. Despite calls to slow AI development, data center spending remains strong, infrastructure backlogs stretch for years, and earnings expectations continue to rise. Meanwhile, the broader market remains stuck in a narrow trading range as money rotates between sectors rather than leaving stocks altogether. With some Technology names becoming increasingly oversold, negative sentiment could also be creating opportunities. We look at the key 50-DMA and 100-DMA support levels, September weakness, midterm election risk, AI spending, sector rotation, and why rising earnings estimates, returning stock buybacks, and third-quarter earnings could provide support heading into year-end.

Stock prices and corporate earnings are breaking trends that have held for roughly 90 years. Does artificial intelligence represent a fundamental change in the economy and markets, or are investors once again being tempted by the four most dangerous words in investing: "this time is different"? Lance Roberts examines whether AI has truly changed the earnings equation, what today's valuations suggest about future returns, and why investors don't necessarily have to choose between being bullish and bearish. 0:00 INTRO 1:01 - FOMC Week; AI: To Pause or Not to Pause? 4:35 - Markets Still Stuck 9:47 - A look at Bond Flow Dynamics 13:49 - Why is Everyone Buying Longer Term Bonds? 14:31 - The TINA Trade 17:50 - The Primary Function of Bonds in a Portfolio: Safety 24:02 - Investment Psychology: Narrative and Greed 27:24 - The Gap Between Estimates and Reality 28:18 - The Truth About Compounding 31:29 - The Permanent Impairment of Capital 33:42 - Currency Debasement & Inflation 35:22 - How to Offset Risk of Inflation: Bonds vs Equities 37:25 - A portfolio is an Engine 38:41 - A Crisis Without a Calendar 41:36 - We're at the Tail End of a Secular Bull Market 43:54 - Investing in Lead & Beans 44:50 - Why We Prefer Optimism Hosted by RIA Advisors' Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Do you enjoy our content?
