Money Matters 12/15/24

Co-host and Producer Jeff Lloyd joins Wes in the studio on today’s episode of Money Matters. Wes starts by celebrating his alma mater (University of North Carolina) hiring Bill Belichick, and that leads them into a discussion about the rising salaries of college coaches and the explosive growth of NIL money for athletes. Next, they examine the latest market trends, including a new all-time high for the NASDAQ. They dig into the latest inflation update, including its specific effects, and look for ways to hedge the gap between wage growth and rising costs. Will the Fed continue to lower interest rates? Finally, they answer a listener's question about Social Security and retirement planning.

On today’s episode, Producer and Co-host Jeff Lloyd joins Wes in the studio to discuss smart financial habits, avoiding impulsive decisions, and staying disciplined in investing. They analyze the importance of resisting unnecessary purchases, practicing patience with investments, and avoiding the trap of "FOMO Freddy"—chasing past winners in the market. They touch on the concern about tariffs, the tense situations in France and South Korea, Cyber Monday, and even Jim Cramer’s comical quote about pizza. Finally, they highlight the historical productivity of long-term planning, diversification, and focusing on consistent strategies to achieve sustainable growth rather than reacting to short-term trends or emotional pressures.

In today’s episode of Money Matters, Wes is joined by Edd and Cynthia Staton. Their retirement plans were disrupted by the 2008 Financial Crisis, leading them to create a Plan B. In 2010, they moved to Cuenca, Ecuador, where they enjoy a comfortable and affordable lifestyle. Their experience reflects a broader trend: the number of retirees receiving Social Security outside the U.S. surged 40% between 2007 and 2017. Now seen as experts in expat retirement, the Statons have authored best-selling books, featured in major media, and run an online program called Retirement Reimagined!
