Real Money Pros

Do you ever look at your yearly premiums paid for insurance and wonder why you even pay that much for something that may never happen? But what if it does? Brian and Jeremiah talk about risk management, but not the kind you mitigate within your investment portfolio. They discuss the importance of life insurance, explain the differences between whole and term life policies, and give real-world examples of why our families absolutely need it. Plus, as we all start to finish up our taxes, they make a point as to why it's probably worth it to pay a tax preparer. Why? The same reason you may need an advisor.

The rise in interest rates has already started to slow. In turn, we’ve seen an increase in home listings, but can buyers even afford the mortgages? Dave Perry with Guild Mortgage (formerly Academy Mortgage) joins the show to help talk about credit scores and how they are evaluated when applying for a mortgage. Can you still get a home with a low credit score? You might not be dinged as much as you used to.

We then talk about death, a topic we don’t like to talk about, but one we should always be planning for. What you should have in your “binder” and common holes in people’s financial plans that absolutely need to be filled. Do you need a will, trust, or both? We answer those questions.
