Ric explores the personal decision of whether to pursue heroic medical interventions at the end of life, highlighting contrasting views on resuscitation from a patient's perspective. It emphasizes the importance of clear communication about Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) wishes and understanding the realities of medical interventions. Plus, the tax implications of converting mutual funds into ETFs, highlighting that selling mutual funds in taxable accounts triggers capital gains taxes, while IRAs allow for a tax-free transition.
