The Aaron Katsman Show

Is social media giving you a completely unrealistic picture of retirement?

From luxury travel to “living your best life,” Instagram and other platforms are filled with images of what retirement is supposed to look like. But for many people, trying to keep up with that version of retirement can lead to serious financial mistakes.

In this episode, I break down what I call the “Instagram retirement trap” and why comparing your financial reality to what you see online can be dangerous.

We spend decades saving and planning for retirement. The last thing you want is to undo that discipline by chasing a lifestyle you can’t actually afford.

Yes, you should enjoy your money. Yes, you should spend in retirement. But it has to be within your means.

To learn how to enjoy retirement without putting your financial future at risk, tune in now.

Can war and scary headlines derail your investment strategy?

With markets reacting to global conflict and nonstop predictions of financial disaster, many investors start wondering if it’s time to sell and get out.

History suggests otherwise.

In this episode, I walk through why market panic is nothing new, why predictions about crashes are usually wrong, and why investors with a long-term plan should stay focused on their goals instead of reacting to every headline.

To learn why tuning out the noise may be one of the most important investment decisions you make, tune in now.

Can fear-based frugality actually hurt your financial health?

I'm exploring the fascinating psychology behind why some people struggle to spend even when they're financially secure, from childhood scarcity wiring the brain to see spending as danger to the woman worth millions who couldn't afford a cup of coffee. Spoiler: there's a middle ground between financial anarchy and panic over your checking account balance.

To learn more about finding the balance between saving and actually enjoying your wealth, listen now!

Should you actually be spending more money as you get older?

Many retirement plans assume spending stays flat, but real life doesn’t work that way. I break down why spending often peaks earlier, why health matters more than account balances, and how to think about enjoying your money without risking your future or your family.

To learn how to spend thoughtfully without losing financial security, tune in now.

Is buying an investment property in Israel still a smart financial move?

Prices have risen dramatically, but low rental yields, higher interest rates, taxes, and concentration risk tell a more nuanced story. I walk through what the data actually says about Israeli real estate, who it may work for, and when other investment options might be a better fit.

To learn how to evaluate Israeli property as an investment, tune in now.

How do you build an investment portfolio that isn’t at the mercy of a single stock or sector?

Diversification is one of the most fundamental principles of long-term investing, helping spread risk across different asset classes and reduce the impact of any one investment losing value. I break down what diversification really means, why simply owning a few “great stocks” isn’t a strategy, and how balanced exposure can help you stay invested through ups and downs in the market.

To learn why diversification matters for your financial future, tune in now.

I'm sharing real conversations I'm having with clients right now about affording assisted living in Israel and why decades of disciplined, goal-focused investing makes all the difference when life happens.

To learn more about investing with purpose through every stage of life, give this a listen.
