Aerospace Employees (Lockheed Martin): You may be leaving 10% free money on the table. Between automatic 6% contribution and the 50% match on your first 8%, the salary savings plan pays you to show up — and most employees never max it.

Mike Allen, CFP® and Mitch Allen, CFP® of Security Financial Management break down the 6% + 4% math, why your emergency fund comes first, the Roth "tax insurance" move, RSU over-concentration, and the acronyms (NQSSP, SSP, DMICP, NUA) that actually matter.

They explain with simple examples why starting distributions during a market downturn can severely impact your nest egg and why having cash reserves and flexible withdrawal strategies matters.

This episode explains why life insurance alone isn't enough for trade business owners and contractors. Rob and Trevor discuss how a disabling injury can wipe out income and threaten a business within months.

They outline three protections: disability income insurance, business overhead expense insurance, and clear succession planning, and share statistics showing owners are more likely to be disabled than die before 65.

Practical advice on what to cover and why these guardrails are essential to keep the lights on and preserve your family's and business's financial stability.

Lockheed Martin changed its executive bonus structure from 75% RSUs and 25% cash to 100% RSUs. That shift reduces liquidity, creates new tax-timing challenges, and increases concentration risk in company stock.

This episode breaks down the implications for taxes and portfolio risk, and outlines practical planning steps—liquidity strategies, tax-aware selling, and diversification—to help executives protect their finances.

In this episode of the BA Podcast Guys, host Robert Lovaglio sits down with Dan Laforest, Senior Financial Advisor at SFM, to discuss an important but often avoided topic: family conversations around estate planning, retirement, and financial preparedness. Dan explains why families should not wait until a crisis happens to talk about wills, trusts, life insurance policies, bank accounts, beneficiaries, and financial documents. The conversation highlights how unclear planning can create stress, confusion, regret, and conflict for loved ones after someone passes away. This podcast episode is a reminder that estate planning is not only about money. It is about giving your family peace of mind, reducing uncertainty, and making sure the people you care about know what to do when the time comes. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ Timestamps: 00:00 – Estate Planning Problems Families Face 00:48 – Changing Family Dynamics 01:41 – Peace of Mind and Unknowns 01:57 – Regret After Family Conflict 02:31 – Asking Clients Their Greatest Fears 02:40 – Finding Accounts After Loss 03:07 – Starting the Family Conversation 03:55 – Bringing Children Into the Plan 04:18 – Financial Advice Disclaimer ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ 📈 Welcome to Best Advice Podcast Guys!
