Losing weight has its limits. Looking at this guy and his dog, I think they may have taken it a little too far!

There’s a difference between getting healthier and losing more weight than you need to.

With Halloween coming up, how do you keep yourself from eating too much candy and “Monster Cereal” this time of year? 🎃 Do you have a strategy for enjoying the treats without going overboard, or do you just rely on willpower?

What works for you?

Did you know that putting your retirement accounts into a living trust doesn't automatically mean you'll get the best tax outcome?

A living trust can offer valuable protection for your loved ones, but specific federal tax rules determine how retirement account benefits can be distributed over time. The wrong approach could mean missing out on important tax advantages.

Your retirement planning shouldn’t stop at deciding who gets your money. It should also consider how that money will benefit the people you love and what protections they may need.

Because leaving an inheritance is one thing. Making sure it serves your loved ones the way you intended is another.

BLOG: What happens to your retirement accounts when you die? Will your loved ones receive them the way you intended?

Your Will may not determine who inherits your retirement accounts. Your beneficiary designations often do.

In my latest blog, I explain four ways your retirement accounts can pass after your death and how the right planning can help protect your family's inheritance from financial missteps, creditors, and even future divorces.

Because estate planning isn't just about who inherits your money. It's about protecting what you've worked hard to build.

Can your child’s inheritance be at risk if they get divorced?

Even if your daughter is financially responsible, life can take unexpected turns. If you leave a $1 million retirement account directly to her, the way that money is managed over time could make protecting it during a divorce more complicated.

An IRA trust may provide an additional layer of protection for an inheritance, depending on how it’s structured and the circumstances involved.

Could an IRA trust give your retirement accounts an added layer of protection?

A specialized retirement benefits trust, often called an IRA trust, can be designed to work with inherited retirement accounts such as IRAs, 401(k)s, and 403(b)s.

Unlike simply naming a beneficiary, this type of trust can provide greater oversight and protection. A trustee can help manage the inherited retirement assets, investments, and required distributions while controlling how the money is distributed to beneficiaries.

The goal is to combine retirement account planning with trust protections particularly when protecting a significant retirement account is a priority.

Of course, everyone has their own routine.
