When taking out your retirement income, it’s important to consider the source. New statements may make it easier to see what you have, but what should you focus on when making a retirement income plan? Your 401(k) statements might look a bit different starting next month. Quarterly statements will be required to include numbers on lifetime income. This will tell you what your monthly income would be based on your current balance.

AVC has been around for nineteen years and it has evolved over the years from a place I’d post multiple times a day to once a day to now once a week. There was a time when there was a vibrant comment community at AVC with many posts getting over a hundred comments and replies. That’s long gone and now it is just me posting here with some chatter occasionally on Twitter.

We have experienced quite a start to the year. The equity markets have had a difficult start to 2022, with the S&P 500, the Dow Jones Industrial, and NASDAQ all seeing double-digit losses. Many of the bond indexes have seen historically bad beginnings to the year as well. The year-to-date losses in the equity and bond markets, coupled with rising inflation rates and a persistent war in Ukraine, have greatly increased the likelihood of a recession.

This isn’t some made up crap because I want to sell on something. Here are real accounts of what a day in the life of a financial advisor entails, from real professional financial advisors. Why I wrote this blog. Why did I find it necessary to write about the day in the life of a financial advisor? Well… Because there is so much smoke-and-mirrors about the profession, nobody is given a clear picture of what an advisor actually does.

Local searches remain a significant source for people looking for products and services in their area. Inquiries with local intent, particularly those with “near me” or “where to buy,” doubled in 2019, according to tech giant Google. Additionally, over half of these searches led to an actual office visit–72% for those within five miles of a user’s location.

In a Nutshell: Mastering the “soft stuff” isn’t just the hard part about building a dynamic culture — it’s the best part. The companies that are winning the ongoing battle for top talent have absolute clarity on their values, morals, ethics, commitment to diversity and inclusivity, and performance standards. And they use that clarity to create a culture by design, not by default, that the brightest and the best want to be a part of.

By Sandy Schussel I’ve given some thought about how not to grow a successful financial services practice or increase your income. I came up with these guidelines of what you do not want to do: Message someone because you need a client instead of asking questions, adding value and helping solve their problems. Market in a way that’s inauthentic to you, such as by following the 26-year-old financial advisor crushing it on TikTok and building automated funnels, even though you’re 50 years old, happ

Some companies offer the benefit of employees owning stock in the employer company through 401(k) plans, profit-sharing plans, stock bonuses and employee stock ownership plans (ESOP). Anyone who owns company stock will eventually have to decide how to distribute those assets when leaving the company or entering retirement. One major thing to consider when doing so is the tax bill that may come along with it.

Investment Writing

JULY 5, 2022

When you’re writing a heading, headline, or title using title case , when do you use initial capitals for prepositions? Simple rule for when to capitalize prepositions. Some sources simply lower-case any shorter preposition. I like the approach taken by Jan Venolia in Write Right! She says, “Capitalize prepositions if they consist of four or more letters, or if they are connected with a preceding verb ” (emphasis added by me).

Let's chat about the backbone of the business, client relationships. Client relationships are fragile. As soon as their money's exposed to volatility, clients are on an emotional roller coaster ride and they need a lot of attention. And all too often, we get caught up in the details of products and services we're offering to notice that our attention may have slipped.
