Take Back Retirement

109: Remarriage & Money: Janice Guinn Joins the Conversation on Love, Legalities, and Life Planning


Listen Later

Congratulations on your remarriage! How do you ensure that your finances are in order as you step into this next phase of your life?

 

Our hosts Stephanie McCullough and Kevin Gaines explore the vital legal and financial considerations of remarriage, from beneficiary designations to tax implications, with guidance from fellow Financial Planner at Sofia Financial, Janice Guinn!

 

There are legal considerations aplenty when deciding between cohabitation and remarriage. Money talks can often be the elephant in the room, but they're essential for maintaining harmony in marriage. A partner's reluctance to engage in these conversations could be a red flag. Financial transparency is key to building a healthy and lasting partnership.

 

Our hosts also get into the nitty-gritty on taxes and retirement plans, trusts and long-term care, as well as pre and post-nuptial agreements!
