We want to answer your questions about money. Email us and you may hear yours on the air: [email protected]

This week on the Pete the Planner Show, we’re exploring three main topics: Can an emailer retire, whether or not you should be bothered by your advisor’s sports gambling, and how you can avoid the impending tax refund delay. Oh, and Pete may have been over-caffeinated.

Here’s a preview of what happened and when:

Show Notes:

Emailer asks questions, saves words for himself

Hi. We’re 55. 4.6m net worth, 1m of which is in our home. 2 private colleges funded

0 debt. 120k a year all in spending and we can easily cut back
Estimate 5k a month SS in 12 years or more waiting to 70.5.
Can we retire? P.S. 60/40 portfolio. 6% rebalancing bands.

Pete and Dame debate the relevance of a financial advisor’s sports gambling

  • As it turns out, it bothers both Pete and Dame. But they admit they’re likely way over-sensitive to this topic.
  • Gambling and investing are not the same, but sometimes people approach investing like they approach gambling, which is where things start to go horribly wrong.
  • The IRS is incredibly understaffed, which means tax refunds could be severely delayed this year

    In the first 6 months of 2021, 15,000 IRS employees tried to handle 240 million calls. Yeah, that didn’t work.
