At Keen Wealth, we often describe tax-planning as an ongoing process, not just something we help folks accomplish every spring.

On today's show, we discuss three financial strategies that you and your advisor should consider before December 31st.

With the presidential election less than a week away, I know many folks are feeling like the present is on pause while we’re waiting on some important answers about the future.

Matt Wilson, Keen Wealth’s Chief Investment Officer and President, analyzed the latest data surrounding the election, the health of the economy, and the early outlook for 2025 in his recent 2024 Q4 Market Update Webinar. Today we’re going to discuss some follow-up questions from webinar attendees that should provide a little more clarity about the relationship between your short-term and long-term financial planning.

So, I understand why a headline like "New study finds many seniors who retire at 65 will run out of money" can make some folks question their retirement plans. On today's show, we unpack the details of that study and discuss a practical approach to preparing for and enjoying your golden years.
