Medicare and healthcare costs are such a big part of your retirement spending, so it’s something that you definitely want to get right. That's why I'm interviewing Tim Becker in today's video.

Tim has been in the insurance industry for over a decade, with a focus on medicare, individual and family plans, and group benefits. His company, Prime Benefit Solutions is an insurance brokerage, meaning that he’s able to educate his clients on the most competitive and up to date solutions when it comes to Medicare plans and other healthcare coverage options.

In this interview, Tim and I will talk about what you need to know when signing up for Medicare for the first time, different Medicare plan options and the differences that distinguish each one, and what is the drug donut hole that everyone talks about.

Thanks for watching!

In today's video, I’m discussing a big question that is on the minds of many Americans these days: Is It Too Late To Buy Real Estate?

I sat down for an interview with Matt Mahaffey, principal broker with the Mahaffey Real Estate Group in Portland, OR. For over 18 years, Matt has had the opportunity to serve well over 500 families in the process of buying and selling real estate. He’s advised clients on everything from first-time home purchases, to rental properties, to selling a 74-acre farm stand business.

He’s a true professional and has a deep understanding of the real estate market. As a 4th generation Oregonian, most of his expertise applies to the Portland, OR real estate market, but as you’ll see, much of what we’ll discuss this week in our interview applies to real estate across the United States.

We discuss everything from the current environment, demographic shifts that could keep real estate prices higher for years to come, and special considerations for retirees and pre-retirees when it comes to real estate investing, downsizing, and whether or not now is a good time to buy that 2nd home....

Thanks for watching the video!

This week on the Retirement Quick Tips podcast, I sat down for an interview with Senior Portfolio Manager and co-founder at Washington Crossing Advisors, Kevin Caron. He’s a frequent speaker on markets and economy-related issues and comments regularly for media outlets like CNBC, PBS, Fox Business, Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal, Reuters, Forbes, CBS Radio, and Dow Jones.

He had some interesting insights to share with me on inflation. Kevin & I explored:
::: Why the massive increase in the supply of money is driving inflation more than the supply chain bottlenecks you hear about in the news
Whether or not inflation will last
::: How Kevin’s perspective on inflation being transitory has changed over the course of this year
::: Why politicians are drunk on using inflated dollars to pay for spending programs
::: Investments that work and investments to stay away from if higher inflation becomes entrenched
::: We also talk about minivans and why he hasn’t replaced his fence that’s currently in disrepair
