Should You Still Follow Yesterday’s Financial Advice?
Financial advice often gets passed from one generation to the next, but not every rule is built for today's economy. The “Henssler Money Talks” hosts take a fresh look at some of the most common rules of thumb and discuss how they fit into modern financial planning.

Inside the Mortgage Process
Buying a home can be exciting—but the mortgage process often feels anything but simple. Even if it's been a few years since you bought a home, chances are you've forgotten just how much of a process it can be. This week, Shanna Squires of Henssler Mortgage Advisors walks us through what actually happens between getting pre-approved and closing on your new home. We'll explain why lenders ask for so much paperwork, what can delay your closing, and the costly mistakes to avoid before you get the keys.
Aging in Place—or Living Larger?
Retirement doesn't always mean downsizing. In fact, many Baby Boomers are buying larger homes designed for entertaining, multigenerational living, and aging in place. At the same time, millions of Gen X families are facing the financial and emotional challenges of caring for aging parents. We'll discuss the costs of long-term care, powers of attorney, family conversations, and how thoughtful planning can help everyone prepare for the years ahead.
A Tale of Two Credit Economies
Credit tells two very different stories in today's economy. While more Americans—especially younger consumers—are achieving top-tier credit scores and taking advantage of premium borrowing opportunities, others are struggling with record credit card balances and rising interest costs. We'll discuss what's driving this divide, what your credit score really measures, and how to use credit as a financial tool rather than a financial burden.
We discuss financial planning encompassing spending, saving, taxes, investments, insurance, retirement, estate plans, and more.
