The Stacking Benjamins Show

You have money in an old 401k and would prefer to have that money in your Roth IRA. Should you make that move? How do you accomplish that goal? That's one of the many letters we tackle on today's podcast! We'll also talk about investing in other countries, differences in investing for men and women, talk through how pensions work, and much more. Our listener letters are always some of our most entertaining and wide-ranging episodes, and you don't disappoint today.

Want to know which of your friends is healthiest? Ask an actuary how much they're going to charge them for life insurance. Matt Wolf, an actuary for Haven Life Insurance Agency, joins us on today's show to talk about how insurances are priced. Think an insurance company is ripping you off? Matt will explain how pricing works so you'll have a better idea about all the things that go into deciding how much you'll pay. Even more important? You'll be able to better understand how insurance works so you'll be able to better insure yourself and avoid types that are really wastes of your money. Even more, you'll understand how insurance decisions are very different depending on your age, assets, and family situation.

Plus, in our headlines segment, we discuss another 401k lawsuit. How does this change the way you save for retirement? Should it change the way you save for retirement at all? Also, we'll talk to our social media correspondent, Jamie Wise from the BUZZ Index (ticker: BUZ). What's going on with financial stocks, Domino's Pizza and biotech? We'll cover all of that and more.

We'll of course have more from the world of financial planning, throw out the Haven Life line to lucky listener Rachel, who wonders about stuffing more money into savings, score with some of Doug's delightful trivia, and more.

They're awesome companies and if you're not using them, I'm not sure you know what you're missing!

Are there more pros or cons to retiring early? A new Investopedia piece says there are definitely more cons than pros. Does our roundtable team agree? We kick off today's show by asking them, and man, are Paula, Greg and Colton opinionated! We don't stop with a raucous discussion about retirement, though...we then ask the question, "Can you 1% your way to your goals?" Not sure what we're referring to? We'll explain. Finally, when it comes time for Halloween, how do you dress as a money nerd? We'll ask for our roundtable team's hard-hitting opinions.

In our Friday career segment, we talk to Kathryn Minshew, CEO of TheMuse.com and co-author of the New Rules of Work about personal branding. How do you ensure that you're able to put your best foot forward online and offline? We'll have details on today's show!
