11/27/24: Leveling the S&P 500
To achieve true diversification and reduce market concentration risks, Ric discusses alternative strategies beyond traditional S&P 500 index funds. Equal-weighted ETFs like Invesco's RSP and mid-cap growth funds like OEGAX provide more balanced exposure and potential growth opportunities by focusing on smaller and mid-sized companies. And retirees receiving Social Security benefits may find that earning extra income may result in additional taxes that actually offset their extra earnings. Ric suggests strategies to avoid the trap and recommends talking with a tax advisor. #InvestingStrategy #Diversification #ETFs #FinancialPlanning #S&P500 #EqualWeightETF #MidCapGrowth #MarketConcentration #WealthBuilding #LongTermInvesting #RetirementPlanning #TaxStrategy #SocialSecurity #TaxTorpedo #RothIRA #FinancialAdvising #IncomePlanning #MedicareCosts #ProvisionalIncome #TaxImplications ----- Join our mailing list: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/podcast Subscribe to podcast updates: https://form.jotform.com/223614751580152 Ask Ric: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/ask-ric ----- Links from today’s show: Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP) https://www.invesco.com/us/en/etf/sp-500-equal-weight-rsp.html Invesco Discovery Mid Cap Growth Fund ETF (OEGAX) https://www.invesco.com/us/financial-products/mutual-funds/product-detail?audienceType=Advisor&productId=FUND-31730 Invesco website: Invesco.com 12/9 Webinar - What the Election Results Mean for Crypto: https://dacfp.com/events/what-the-election-results-mean-for-crypto 12/10 Webinar - The Retirement Revolution: ETF Solutions for Modern Retirement Planning: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/the-retirement-revolution-etf-solutions-for-modern-retirement-planning 2/24-2/26 Wealth Management Convergence-2025 https://www.thetayf.com/pages/convergence-2025 11/13 Webinar Replay - An Innovative Way to Generate Income in a World of Declining Rates: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/november-13-2024-an-innovative-way-to-generate-income 10/9 Webinar Replay - Crypto for RIAs: Yield, Staking, Lending and Custody.

As the Social Security Trust Fund nears depletion, Americans face potential 20% cuts to benefits starting in 2034, which could significantly affect their retirement security. Financial advisors must help clients understand the importance of personal savings and investments to secure a stable retirement income.

President Biden's student loan forgiveness program has relieved five million borrowers, yet many still face significant financial stress, often replacing student debt with other burdens like credit card debt. The relief, while appreciated, is deemed insufficient to change lives fundamentally, highlighting that financial struggles persist beyond the scope of loan forgiveness. Plus, Ric highlights a critical issue with annuities: while the products themselves can be legitimate, consumers often struggle to understand them due to poor sales practices and a lack of transparency from agents, who are incentivized to prioritize commission over client education. #StudentLoanForgiveness #FinancialStruggles #DebtRelief #BidenAdministration #EconomicImpact #CreditCardDebt #HouseholdFinance #FinancialEducation #HigherEducation #PolicyDebate #Annuities #ConsumerAwareness #FinancialEducation #SalesPractices #FiduciaryStandard #InsuranceAgents #InvestmentProducts #FinancialLiteracy #Transparency #CommissionConflict ----- Subscribe to podcast updates: https://form.jotform.com/223614751580152 Ask Ric: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/ask-ric ----- Links from today’s show: 8/13 Podcast - Insurance Industry’s Latest Battle Against Consumer Protection: https://www.thetayf.com/blogs/this-weeks-stories/the-insurance-industry-s-latest-battle-against-consumer-protection 10/9 Webinar - Crypto for RIAs: Yield, Staking, Lending and Custody.

10/1/24: Knee, Hip, Kidney and Lung Transplants - Next: Heads
A biomedical engineering company is developing head transplants using robotics and AI to help patients with severe conditions retain their consciousness while receiving a new body, with potential surgeries starting within eight years. Meanwhile, studies show psychedelics can improve emotional states in rats, and non-surgical techniques using ultrasound and 3D printing are repairing tissues. Plus, Ric answers a question from a listener who is considering a corporate trustee for her new trust. While professional trustees can offer unbiased management, it's crucial to ensure that heirs can remove and replace them if necessary to maintain accountability. #HeadTransplant #BiomedicalEngineering #Robotics #AI #Psychedelics #MentalHealth #3DPrinting #NeuralImplants #Innovation #FutureMedicine #EstatePlanning #Trustee #CorporateTrustee #FinancialAdvice #WealthManagement #TrustServices #AssetManagement #FamilyTrust #Inheritance #LegalAdvice ----- Subscribe to podcast updates: https://form.jotform.com/223614751580152 Ask Ric: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/ask-ric ----- Links from today’s show: 10/9 Webinar - Crypto for RIAs: Yield, Staking, Lending and Custody.

AI's rapid advancement is causing significant job cuts across major companies, with UPS, Google, and BlackRock among those impacted, raising concerns that it could automate 300 million full-time jobs globally by the decade's end.

10/30/23: The Digital Dollar and the Future of Money
Have you ever wondered about the intersection of politics and money? Historically, Wall Street and Washington, D.C. operated in separate spheres, but the 2008 financial crisis changed that dynamic. With the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) and its $700 billion bailout, the financial epicenter shifted from New York to D.C., where decisions now influence global markets. Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) are the latest financial instruments caught in this political crossfire. While countries like China have already adopted CBDCs and others are in development, the U.S. finds itself in a heated debate.

The Maldives, often dubbed as 'Paradise on Earth', is a breathtaking archipelago with over 2,000 islands and atolls, boasting a rich marine biodiversity. But did you know that by 2100, this paradise could be entirely submerged due to rising sea levels? To combat this imminent threat, the nation is innovating with the construction of a floating city, designed to rise with the sea, housing up to 20,000 residents.

I'll play the audio for you and then give you my reaction to his comments. Gary Gensler can't kill crypto, but he can harm American investors and damage American economic leadership in the world. You need to contact your elected representatives in Washington and tell them to pass the laws. We need to foster development of this technology while simultaneously protecting U.S. investors. We can do both. I encourage you to go watch Gary Gensler's Twitter video and read some of the 4000 comments; virtually all of them horribly negative against that video and Gary Gensler's behavior. His behavior is bad for America. He's ultimately going to fail.

4/27/23: The No. 1 Way You Can Reduce Your Risk of Alzheimer’s Today
Today we're talking about Alzheimer's disease. Did you know that the odds of getting Alzheimer's by age 90 is 1 in 2? And the odds by age 60 are 1 in 10? That's scary stuff. And not only is it emotionally and physically taxing, but it's also financially taxing. Alzheimer's patients require typically 24/7 care, which costs an average of $120,000 a year. But there's good news - new research shows that losing weight can actually reduce your risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. ----- Links from today's show: Today's webinar - Preparing Your Practice for Success in the Coming Decade Friday's Bitwise Roundtable Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

4/25/23: How Blockchain Technology is a Real-World Game-Changer
Charlie Munger recently wrote an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal saying America should ban crypto. His partner in crime, Warren Buffett, says Bitcoin has no unique value at all.

4/24/23: 10% Return is Better than 8% -- But is 8% all that Bad?
A couple of weeks ago, I said that the biggest scam in investing today is ESG (environmental, social, governance), mutual funds and ETFs that invest with a filter so that they only invest in companies that pay attention to ESG values. I said that a lot of people have invested in ESG, and so that's pretty cool, right? You can align your investments with your values. But I also said that that's nothing but a sales pitch. Of the 120 funds that currently have a Triple-A rating for adhering to ESG, the company that awards those ratings is about to announce that they've been wrong. ----- Links from today's show: 4/12 podcast episode Another Black Eye for ESG in MSCI's Mass Downgrade Tuesday Webinar: How Crypto is Really Going to Change the World Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

4/21/23: Why Millions are Leaving This State for That State
Today's podcast is eye-opening. It's shocking to know that so many people making six-figure salaries are still living paycheck to paycheck. And it's all because of the cost of living in certain cities. I see this all the time. People are so focused on following their passions and pursuing certain careers without really considering the financial implications. Sure, it's great to do what you love, but if it's not going to provide you with a comfortable lifestyle, is it really worth it? I know it's not easy to make career and location decisions based on finances, but it's important to have an honest conversation with yourself and your financial advisor. You need to consider the cost of living in the area you want to live and the compensation you can expect from your chosen career. I hope you enjoy today's show. Have a great weekend.

4/20/23: Is A College Degree Still Worth the Cost?
A new poll conducted by The Wall Street Journal in collaboration with the University of Chicago found that 56% of Americans believe that a four-year degree is no longer worth the cost. Skepticism is highest among those aged 18 to 34, the target demographic for colleges. The poll also found that only 44% of women, regardless of political affiliation, believe that college is worth it. College enrollment is down by 1.3 million students over the past four years, equating to $60 billion in lost tuition revenue for colleges. ----- Links from today's show: Americans are Losing Faith in College Education, Poll Finds (from The Wall Street Journal) 4/25 Webinar registration: How Crypto is Really Going to Change the World Self-Care with Jean Edelman Podcast Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

4/19/23: Has Greed Taken Over Your Life?
I want to talk to you about Dan Snyder, the owner of the Washington Commanders, and the actions he has taken during his 24-year tenure. From building a fence around the stadium to prevent fans from parking for free, to charging admission fees for fans to attend training camp, to failing to address complaints of misconduct by team officials, it's no wonder why pretty much everyone seems to hate this guy - the league, the other NFL owners, the team's players and staff, and the fans. Under Snyder's ownership, the team has lost nearly 60% of its games and hasn't won a playoff game in nearly 20 years, yet he's now selling the team for a whopping $6 billion. It's important to learn from his example and decide what truly matters to you. Is it wealth and success at any cost or integrity and respect? It's up to you to make that call. ----- Links from today's show: From passion to pariah: How Washington fell out of love with its NFL team -- and came to despise its owner (The Washington Post) Wall Street Journal/University of Chicago poll -- Ric's podcast from April 3, 2023 Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

4/18/23: Wakeup Call To the SEC
The world of cryptocurrency is rapidly evolving, and I'm worried that the United States is getting left behind. Here in the United States, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) seems more interested in enforcing crypto regulations than fostering innovation. Their proposed rule to effectively ban advisors from recommending or investing client assets in crypto is worrying, and it seems like we're missing out on the potential benefits of this technology. I urge you to stay informed about the rapidly-evolving world of crypto and make informed decisions about investing in this space. Don't let fear and uncertainty hold you back from the potential opportunities that this technology can offer. ----- Links from today's show: Rendering Innovation Kaput: Statement on Amending the Definition of Exchange by SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce DACFP Certificate in Blockchain and Digital Assets Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

The Human Cell Atlas has identified thousands of cell categories, and researchers plan to have a first draft of the full atlas in just two years.

4/5/23: Is my Cash Still Safe at my Bank?
Yesterday I said here on the podcast that federal banking regulators have been trying to kill crypto companies by denying them access to banks. The FDIC shut down Silvergate and Signature Banks and Silicon Valley Bank, all of which did a lot of business with crypto companies. And the regulators are trying to tell other banks not to do business with crypto companies. Their efforts so far are failing because crypto is a legitimate industry that's operating - for the most part anyway, legally and profitably. Why wouldn't a bank want to do business with an industry like this? Just because you don't like crypto, what does that have to do with it? That's like saying you won't let tobacco companies or casinos or gun manufacturers have bank accounts just because you don't like what they do either. ----- Links from today's show: Money Market, Fidelity Money Market, Invesco Money Market, Schwab Certificate in Blockchain and Digital Assets Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

It's Wednesday, March 22nd. 100 years ago, odds were high that you lived and worked on a farm. That was a 24/7/365 job because, you know, cows and pigs and chickens, they never take the day off. They got to be fed or milked or always cared for and crops always needed tending to every day. The Industrial Revolution gave us the six-day workweek. Sunday was off for religious reasons. Eventually, that led to the five-day workweek. In 1938, Congress created the 40-hour workweek and set overtime pay for anything more than that. That was then.

It's Wednesday, March 8th. Earlier this week, for a couple of days, I was telling you about the absurdity of the Social Security system, referring to full retirement age, when in fact it has nothing to do with being full at age 66. I said that what the Social Security system needs to do is get rid of the term full. Well, guess what? Four senators have now just introduced legislation that would indeed change the language used by the Social Security Administration. Under their bill, full retirement age would no longer be called full. It will now be called standard benefit. Age 62 would be called the minimum benefit and age 70, the maximum benefit exactly the way it ought to be. ----- Links from today's show: March 6 Podcast: The Social Security Admin. is Full of It March 7 Podcast: My Solution to Save Social Security -- Wacky or Brilliant?

3/6/23: The Social Security Administration is Full of It
I want you to define the word 'full' for me. What does full mean? Well, I think you would say that full means full. No more; at capacity; topped out. If I ask for a full glass of water, you're going to pour water in that glass until you can't pour any more water into the glass. Right? Full means full. We're done. Well, unfortunately, that word has been incorrectly used by the Social Security Administration, and it is causing millions of Americans to make bad decisions, decisions that they wouldn't make if it weren't for the Social Security Administration's incorrect usage of the word. ----- Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

2/28/23: Why You Need to Rethink When to Start Your Social Security Benefits
It's Tuesday, February 28th. When I ask you a question, when should you start to receive your Social Security benefits? All financial advisors pretty much say the same thing. If you're in good health and you can afford to delay, then delay. Even though you're allowed to start receiving Social Security retirement benefits at age 62, you'll be better off in the long run if you wait until you're 70. You'll end up with 76% more money every month, adjusted for inflation, by waiting. We're talking hundreds of thousands of dollars in additional income over your entire retirement. So if pretty much every advisor says to wait, that's pretty much what every retiree does, right? According to the Federal Reserve, only 10% of retirees wait until age 70 to start receiving Social Security. You got be in a heap of trouble. ----- Follow Ric on social media: Facebook Twitter YouTube Instagram Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

2/22/23: Time To Rethink Your College Savings Strategy
A couple of weeks ago I talked with you about how college is becoming free. If you want to hear that bit, the link to it is in today's show notes. Dozens of colleges and universities, as I've told you, are making college free these days for low-income families. A lot of states are now doing that, too, and not just for low-income households, but for middle class families, too. And hundreds of companies are now paying for college for their employees. It's the newest employee benefit. So I said, you really need to rethink your college planning strategy if college is going to be free. Do you still need to save for college? Well, guess what? Thanks to Congress (who loves to give freebies away to voters), yes, saving for college just might still make sense, even if you never have to pay for college, even if your kids never go to college. ----- Links from today's show: SECURE 2.0 Act of 2022 Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

2/16/23: The Broken Promise of Public Pensions
It's Thursday, February 16th. We've been talking about scams the past couple of days. Crypto has gotten a lot of criticism lately about scams, even though all the evidence shows you're no more likely to get scammed in crypto than you are in any other asset class. Crooks are crooks. But there's a really interesting story in Forbes - which is the bigger scam: crypto fraud or the lack of transparency at our nation's public pension plans? According to Anessa Santos, public pension funds are the bigger scam. The reason, she says, public plans have been promising all of us that you contribute a portion of your pay to the plan while you're working and you get guaranteed lifetime income throughout your retirement. But that's a lie, she says. And I agree with her. ----- Links from today's show: Forbes: Pension Funds or Cryptocurrency, What's the Bigger Scam?

2/3/23: Why Crypto is Here to Stay
Tom Emmer, a member of Congress, just issued a tweet and he said, "Crypto is here to stay. I will keep advocating for policies that advance crypto innovation and adoption in the US because crypto is more than a financial investment. It's about restoring liberty and choice to individuals". Wow. That's brand new coming from Tom Emmer. And he's not alone. Kevin McCarthy, the speaker of the House, way back in 2019, he said, "I like Bitcoin. I want the government to start using blockchain". That was in 2019 when Kevin McCarthy was not the Speaker of the House. Well, now he is, and he's in a much stronger position to dictate that the government in fact start using blockchain. So when you have these major political leaders embracing and endorsing this asset class, well, you know, things are coming. And this isn't just a Republican thing. Democrats, too, are highly supportive. Janet Yellen last year called blockchain technology transformative. Maxine Waters, the ranking minority member of the House Financial Services Committee, she said last summer, "We're in a new digital assets space race. America can't be left behind". And Elizabeth Warren last year said, "Let's do a central bank digital currency. Yes, I think it's time". ----- Brought to you by: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ Schwab ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

The webinar's on Financial Planning in the Age of Longevity. The webinar is open to the public and you can register for free in the show notes below. Some 63% of Americans say that inflation pushed them off track financially. 59% are living paycheck to paycheck. 60% say they can't pay an unexpected expense of $500. 54% have reduced the amount that they're putting into their retirement accounts because of inflation. And 43% say they've withdrawn money from their retirement accounts to pay their bills. And you do have an explanation for this, don't you? Well, we all know the tremendous pressure that the economic environment has placed us under in 2022 because inflation was near double digits - 8.7% Social Security increases based on the rate of inflation. And we know that the stock market had a terrible year, the bond market had a terrible year, crypto had a terrible year. So between the fact that your expenses were radically rising at the very moment that your assets were fundamentally falling, we're now discovering ourselves with layoff after layoff after layoff. ----- Links from today’s show: Today's webinar for the Museum of American Finance Study: The Center for Retirement and Policy Studies at Morningstar The Hemline Index Today’s sponsors: Global X ETFs ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website The Truth About Crypto Have a question for Ric?

1/18/23: Why Housing Prices May Fall by 38% in Some Markets
It's January 18th. Yesterday I told you that real estate prices are going to fall this year by a lot - 10% or 20% or more in some markets. I've gotten a lot of questions asking me why I said that. Well, here's why. It's all about home affordability. You can't buy a house unless you can afford to buy a house. I mean, you might not be able to afford a candy bar, but no one stops you from buying it. If you don't have cash in your pocket, you just use a credit card. But if you want to buy a house, you need tens of thousands of dollars in cash just for the down payment. And then you've got to qualify for the mortgage. So here are the numbers. If you want to buy the average US home today based on today's mortgage rates, the average household in America would spend 30% of their income on their mortgage. Can the average household afford that? Zillow calls the situation bleak. ----- Links from today’s show: National Association of Realtors research Home onChain Teller protocol The Truth About Crypto Today’s sponsors: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website Have a question for Ric?

It's Tuesday, January 17th. Do you remember what I told you to do one year ago? Yeah, you don't remember. But I do. Because I was right. I told you one year ago to get out of bonds. I sure hope you did. The Federal Reserve, as you know, raised interest rates more quickly last year than at any time since the 1980s. And the result was that bonds ended up having their worst year ever . Yeah. 10 year Treasuries lost more money last year than in any year since 1788. Treasuries, in fact, not only lost a lot of money last year, they lost a lot of money the year before that. Two years in a row, the bond market fell in value. The last time that happened was 1959. Bitcoin can recover; your bonds can't. ----- Today’s sponsors: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website Have a question for Ric?

1/13/23: An Alzheimer’s Breakthrough – But Who Can Afford It?
Today is Friday, January 13. On today's show - The FDA has just approved a new drug called Leqembi. If you have early symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease, it can slow the cognitive decline. However, the cost makes it prohibitive for most people - at $26,000 per year! And to make matters worse, Medicare won't pay for it. This is bad news for the estimated six million people in the U.S. suffering from the disease. I'll also take a deep dive into crypto with Lex Sokolin. And finally, we'll hear Jean's word of the week. ----- Links from today’s show: FDA Approves Leqembi The Truth About Crypto by Ric Edelman Self-Care with Jean Edelman Podcast Ric's 4 Free Master Classes Today’s sponsors: Global X ETFs Invesco QQQ ----- Subscribe to podcast updates The Truth About Your Future website Have a question for Ric?

1/11/23: Why You Must Completely Rethink Your Approach to College Planning
It's Wednesday, January 11. I talked with you yesterday about Social Security. This is the real crisis that America's retirees are facing. Let me shift the conversation back a few generations to, not today's seniors, but to today's high school students, those who are aspiring to go to college. According to a new survey, 77% of households say college is difficult to afford. Three out of four families say they can't afford college. Half of them say it's not affordable at all. These days, you pay a ton of money to go to school. You're getting suckered into bad deals that are promoted by the school so they can earn even more money off of you than merely the tuition you're paying.

1/10/23: Why the 8.7% Soc. Sec. Cost of Living Adjustment is Bad News - The Real Figure is -23%!
It's Tuesday, January 10. On today's show: the gap between what Social Security was MEANT to provide when it was created and how it's actually being used today. When Social Security was created, there were a lot of workers and not a lot of retirees because life expectancy was so low - we're just not dying at 65 anymore like we are supposed to! Take a look at your current S.S. statement and what your benefit is supposed to be, and cut that number by 25%. The truth about your future is that in 10 years, that will be your reality if Congress doesn't act now.

1/9/23: My Tale of Two Medical Experiences
Today is Monday, January 9th. Welcome to The Truth About Your Future. I'm going to share with you a couple of very personal stories today. One of them horribly serious, the other one a little bit lighter, although still highly annoying, but with importance - both of these messages and lessons for all of us. You know, it's so often people, when they go through a personal medical experience, they share that story with an admonition: Don't let this happen to you... Be forewarned… Here's how you can avoid it…Here's what I wish I knew… that kind of thing… and those kinds of stories always kind of annoyed me because I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure. Well, I'm about to share a couple of those stories with you and with the hope that there will be a lesson learned for you. It certainly has been lessons learned for Jean and me for the past several days. Thank you to Inova Fairfax Medical !

It's Friday, January 6th. Welcome to the podcast. Long show, big show today. Really excited. A great interview with Dr. Ken Dychtwald, one of the world's leading experts on aging. Before we get into it, though, I want to talk about a new report that has been produced by Global X ETFs. It's their outlook for 2023 and beyond. It's a special report that they published in coordination with the Wall Street Journal. And I'm going to be talking with you about this report over many, many weeks, because it's got a huge amount of fabulous content and it's all in the subject of exponential technologies, also called thematic investing. And I just want to share with you one snippet from Global X's outlook for 2023. Personalized medicine. You know, I'm a really big fan of exponential technologies. I created an Exponential Technologies ETF myself years ago, and my last book, The Truth about Your Future, was all about exponential technologies. My personal portfolio is significantly overweighted in exponential technologies, and I am firmly believing that you should have 20 to 30% of your equity portfolio in exponential technologies. And the first one I want to focus on with you is personalized medicine. This is one of the most important new waves of technology. It's literally going to change and extend your life.

1/5/23: Why You Shouldn’t Care That We’re Headed to a Recession
Yes, inflation hit a 4-decade high in 2022, the cost of goods and energy is up globally, and half of economists say a recession is in our future. According to the IMF, 2023 will be the worst year for the global economy since 2001. But investors and advisors need to keep this fundamental truth in mind: there’s a huge difference between the stock market and the economy. You need to know the key indicators and not get overly pessimistic – there are opportunities here.

12/3/22: Disturbing trends hitting pension plans and stunning healthcare innovations
Some of the newest technological advances in healthcare are making news: there’s a new soft implantable cooling device that could provide pain relief on demand. This is a big deal because 20% of people suffer from chronic pain. Scientists at the Institute of Cancer Research have genetically modified the herpes simplex virus – that’s the virus that gives you a cold sore. And they're using this modification to attack cancerous tumors. It has apparently cured one person so far. A biotech company in New York has used 3D printing to make a body part with a patient’s own cells; they’re calling this a stunning advance in the field of tissue engineering. There is a disturbing new trend happening: IBM has been making some major changes to its pension plan. And you need to be aware of the message this is sending, especially if you rely on or plan to rely on your own pension. If you took advantage of one of the rules Congress enacted for the 2020 CARES Act that allowed you to withdraw money from your IRA or 401 (K) during the pandemic, even if you weren’t 59.5 years old, you have a really cool opportunity to get a refund on the income taxes you paid on that money.

11/12/2022: The Truth About the Collapse of FTX – What does this mean long-term for crypto?
FTX, the world's second largest crypto exchange, has announced that the company is broke, that they aren't able to handle withdrawal requests from their crypto exchange platform. Now you've probably heard of FTX. FTX slapped their logo on the uniforms of umpires in the World Series. They bought the naming rights to the stadium where the Miami Heat plays – they paid $212 million for that. The founder and CEO of FTX is Sam Bankman-Fried – 32 years old and worth $32 billion, at least until this week. And he not only was on the cover of Time Magazine, but he just recently contributed $39 million to Democrat Political Action Committees, making himself one of the largest political contributors in the country. Now, we need to unwind all of this and talk about what it means for crypto – the impact on Bitcoin and other digital assets.

10/15/22: More on President Biden's student loan forgiveness, a talk with CNBC's Bob Pisani, and the radical lifestyle change that is retirement
Recently you heard me talk about the president's student loan proposal , and you know that I strongly oppose the president's debt forgiveness plan. But all that said, there's no question that too many people owe too much money to student loans, and this dilemma is creating too much of a burden on them, as well as on our society overall, and our economy. So there's no question we do need to fix this situation. We do need to take action. But the loan forgiveness program proposed by the president isn't the right way to go about it; loan forgiveness should be offered, but for far fewer people, not 43 million who earn as much as a quarter of a million dollars each year. I'm really excited to bring on a very special guest to the program, my good friend Bob Pisani. You know him well. He's the senior markets correspondent for CNBC and he's just written a brand new book, Shut Up And Keep Talking: Lessons on Life and Investing from the Floor of the New York Stock Exchange . The book is out October 18. You can buy it right now on Amazon or your favorite bookseller. One of the things that we all kind of face with hesitation is our retirement. I mean, sure, we're going to age. We're going to eventually leave our job. It might be voluntary. On the other hand, it may be forced. Either way, we're facing one of the most radical lifestyle changes of our entire lives. I mean, think back to the last time you had such a radical change in lifestyle. Getting married certainly was one. Moving to a new home - that's a biggie. Having children - for sure. Getting a new job - that was a big one. But when's the last time any of those happened? Maybe decades ago. Well, now you're on the cusp of facing another lifestyle change: leaving your employment. And some folks enter this with the attitude of saying, my goodness, the best years of my life are behind me. I'm looking at a void. I'm looking at loss. What does this mean for my future? Is life over? And what am I going to be facing? Well, I've got two stories for you to demonstrate that life is just beginning as you age.

10/8/2022: Effects of the strong U.S. dollar around the world, Congress and insider trading, crypto market predictions, & who is TINA & why is she (or it) dead?
We've seen an incredible array of disarray in the financial markets on a global basis. The U.S. dollar is very, very strong right now, meaning the dollar is worth a lot more than other currencies around the world. That's really good news for the U.S., but it's really bad news for everybody else. Members of Congress -- 18% of them are engaging in insider trading, according to research from The New York Times. 183 senators or representatives did a stock trade in the past three years, and more than half of them sat on committees that gave them insight into the companies whose shares they bought or sold.

10/1/22: The impact of the world's energy crisis, buy a car - get an NFT, and the popularity of annuities
Coming up on the show today: What is the merge in crypto, a look at the impact of the world's energy crisis, your favorite automaker is now making NFTs, the mainstreaming of crypto, a new low cost MRI - it's a game changer - plus, our health and wellness segment with my wife, Jean Edelman. It is The Truth About Your Future, and one of the biggest truths we're all dealing with these days is the cost of electricity. This is a global crisis, particularly in Europe, where the cost of electricity is up 10X from a year ago. No, not 10% - 10X - which means what used to cost $10 is now $100. People who used to be spending $100 a month on their energy bill are now paying $1,000. The European Commission is trying to solve this dilemma. Energy prices are based on oil and natural gas prices, and we don't have enough oil or natural gas flowing into Europe, and it's all because of the war. The Russian government has shut down the oil pipeline there, strictly reducing the amount of natural gas that they're allowing to flow into Europe. And what they are providing, they're selling for too high a price. The CEO of Shell says Europe is going to have to ration energy for years to come. This is a huge issue, way more expensive than the decade long average in line with a 14 fold increase in the cost of gasoline. And the irony of all this - the horrifying part - is that Moscow is now making more money from oil than it did before the war. Russia's pumping almost as much oil as before and selling it for higher prices. Who are the buyers? Pakistan, India, and China predominantly. Russia has earned $20 billion a month this year selling its oil versus $15 billion before the war started. And they've got new markets: the Middle East, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, the UAE, and Egypt. They're all buying in addition to India, Pakistan, China, and Turkey. India, in fact, is now Russia's biggest customer. Russian exporters are often labeling their oil as coming from Iran or Venezuela to fool buyers who really don't want to support Russian oil exports. It's becoming a really big problem, and it's contributed to the fact that the Euro has fallen 15% in the past year. It fell to a 20 year low in August, and now investors are saying it's going to fall in value even more. Most contracts in the options market are against the Euro than at any time since the start of the pandemic back in March of 2020. In other words, most investors are betting that the Euro is going to fall even further than where it is now. And this is all because of the energy problem, which is sharply contributing to the inflation problem in Europe - the Euro inflation is running at 9%. So what are the countries around the world trying to do about it? Guess who has launched an NFT collection? The car company Kia. They've launched 10,100 NFTs, and they're not the only car company to have done that. Lamborghini, Mercedes, Chevrolet, Hyundai, Porsche, Bentley - all of them have launched NFTs.

Also, I'll discuss the question, Is college really worth it? You've seen the letters QQQ in ads -- I'll talk to Ryan McCormack from Invesco -- their flagship ETF is Invesco QQQ. Let's get started with where we all are and the turmoil you've been experiencing personally and observing in the economy. There's one segment that is doing incredibly well -- very, very strong -- the U.S. dollar. When we compare the value of the U.S. dollar to other currencies around the world, we discover that our dollar is going up in value and other countries' currencies are going down in value. Well, is that a big deal? Isn't that good news? Well, not necessarily. Johnson & Johnson just reported that its profits are going down because the dollar is going up. The company says it generates half of its sales outside the U.S., so think about this: if you live in Europe, and you want to buy a product from J&J, you have to use your Euro to buy something that is manufactured in dollars. So the lower your Euro, the more of them you have to spend. In other words, you've got a big price increase for Johnson & Johnson products, even without inflation. J&J says that the strong dollar is costing the company $4 billion in sales. Microsoft and IBM are saying the same thing. A dollar, so far this year, is up 12%, so a strong dollar is actually bad news for American businesses trying to sell overseas. Ask Ric a question on his show .

On today's show: How universities are saving money at the expense of students, the latest on municipal bonds, the college dropout rate, NFTs and the metaverse, the growth of CBDCs, and this week's health and wellness segment by my wife, Jean. You know, I'm a big critic of college and the college cost, and the challenge of getting our students the education they need at a price that they can afford. Now we've got new data from the Chronicle of Higher Education: a third of college students are thinking of dropping out. Faculty say a third of their students are absent from class or not participating when they're there. 76% of students say they're suffering emotional stress. That's the reason they're talking about dropping out of school. The rest say the coursework is simply too difficult. If you've got a student in college, you need to talk to them about their attitude about college. Are they thinking of dropping out? That could be $50,000 down the drain for you if they've done so. Universities, meanwhile, are trying to save money, lowering the cost of attending college; hundreds of schools, including Vanderbilt, Berkeley, and USC, they're now hiring companies to create and teach classes without the students knowing that they've been outsourced. These online education companies use .edu email addresses of the universities to recruit students into their courses. They also get phone numbers with university area codes. Are you sure that the tuition dollars you're paying are resulting in your student getting taught on campus by an actual member of the university faculty? Or are you being bamboozled? You need to talk with that university and that college to make sure you really understand who's teaching what to your child. Ask Ric a question on his show

On this week's show: a half billion dollars for Bob Dylan songbook, managing your money in today's economic environment, the growth of the metaverse, a conversation with SEC Commissioner Carolyn Crenshaw, free savings accounts for first graders, Gucci getting into NFTs, and Jean's Word of the Week. We all know the mess the world is in, so we're going to change it up this week and we're going to talk about the fact that the world's going digital. That includes the music industry and major retailers. DJ Justin Blau has teamed up with an electronic musician who goes by the name of Diplo. They created a song and sold 20% of the streaming royalties to fans via NFTs. Snoop Dogg sold an NFT attached to his latest album and generated $40 million in sales in five days. DJ Steve Aoki says he's made more money selling NFTs than he did from ten years of selling records. And at Universal and Sony, they paid $500 million to buy Bob Dylan's songbook. And just as I predicted they were going to do: They are now getting ready to sell Bob Dylan NFTs. Spotify is going to add blockchain technology and NFTs to its streaming service to boost artists earnings. Ask Ric a question on his show.

The challenge of buying a home in today's market, investing in electric vehicles, battery technology, and more
On today's show: The challenge of buying a home in today's market, investing in electric vehicles, and battery technology. Also, are we going to spend our way out of debt? We'll look at hard forks, and this week's health and wellness segment by my wife, Jean Edelman. There's more to talk about in the world of personal finance and the five subjects that matter most than merely what the markets did this week. 65% of all the people in the United States are in families that own a home. Home prices are now at an all time high, up 15% from last year. The median home price is now $375,000, meaning half of all the houses cost more. Half of them cost less. Homeowners in the last two years have gained $6 trillion in new wealth because of the increased equity in your house. The average homeowner over the past two years now has an extra $67,000 in new home equity that's available to you. You get a home equity loan or a home equity line of credit. You've got $67,000 at your fingertips that you can use for whatever you want to use it for. But at the same time, mortgage rates are now at 5% and rising. They're rising, in fact, at the fastest pace in 35 years. Mortgage rates a year ago were 3%. And as a result of all this, a quarter of homebuyers today are now paying cash. That's the highest percentage of homebuyers ever. Ask Ric a question on his show: https://www.thetayf.com/pages/ask-ric

Welcome to the truth about your future with Ric Edelman. You know, this show is all about personal finance, and that's the reason we talk about investing on this program.

Investing, not Speculating in Digital Assets
You're listening to The Truth About Your Future. I'm getting a lot of questions from folks, a lot of emails over the past several weeks pertaining to the war in Ukraine wondering, gee, the Russian stock market is closed. This occurred because the economic sanctions caused Russian stock prices to fall 40% in value, and then Putin shut down the exchanges. The financial markets are closed in Russia because of the economic crisis that the war has created, not just in Ukraine, of course, but also, in fact, in Moscow. And it has led to some folks writing to me asking Ric, could that ever happen here? Could our stock market ever close?
