Putting the Ten Year Rule to the Test
The stock market has experienced only two rolling 10-year calendar periods with negative returns since 1931. The “Henssler Money Talks” hosts revisit those challenging years to illustrate how the Henssler Ten Year Rule helps investors maintain liquidity for anticipated spending needs, avoid selling stocks during market downturns, and stay on track with their long-term financial plans.

Estate Essentials: Who's Really in Control of Your Estate Plan?
You've decided who inherits your assets, but have you given enough thought to who is responsible for carrying out your wishes? In this installment of Estate Essentials, attorney Kyle Rinaudo from Reeves Law, P.C., joins us to discuss the responsibilities and authority of executors, trustees, agents under powers of attorney, and guardians. We explore why choosing someone simply because they're your spouse, oldest child, or closest relative may not always be the right approach, how family dynamics can complicate these decisions, and what to consider when selecting the people who will play important roles in your estate plan.
Long-Term Care: When Life Tests the Financial Plan
A listener's family experience raises an important question: How do you prepare financially for the possibility of needing long-term care, and what happens when that need becomes a reality? Rather than revisiting the basics of long-term care, we're looking at how these situations fit into a broader financial plan, including the role of insurance, managing unexpected expenses, and balancing care needs with other financial priorities. We discuss why planning for long-term care isn't just about anticipating costs, but also about having the financial flexibility to navigate difficult decisions when circumstances change.
Money Between Friends: Who Picks Up the Check?
You're out to dinner with friends, and when the check arrives, someone offers to put it on their card. Sounds simple enough, until it's time to collect everyone's share. Why can asking a friend to pay you back feel so uncomfortable? We share our own experiences with splitting expenses, picking up the tab, and navigating the unwritten rules of money and friendship. From generational differences to the psychology behind generosity, we explore why even small amounts of money can create awkward situations between friends.
We discuss financial planning encompassing spending, saving, taxes, investments, insurance, retirement, estate plans, and more.
