  • HerMoney Classic: An Insider’s Guide To Cars: Buying and Selling

    HerMoney Classic: An Insider’s Guide To Cars: Buying and Selling
    Sep 20 2024
    It finally happened…the Fed lowered interest rates, by a greater-than-expected half a percentage point when they met on Wednesday. This was the first time rates were cut in more than four years, and it’s expected that the Fed may continue cutting the rate at its two remaining meetings before the end of this year. We’ve heard from many of you who have been waiting to drive off the lot in a new — or new-to-you — car until rates fell. That’s why this week, we’re re-releasing one of our most popular car-buying episodes, all about buying, selling, and the surprising places where you can and can’t negotiate at the dealer. We’re joined by Scotty Reiss, founder and CEO of A Girls Guide to Cars, a website that’s empowering women to be smarter, happier car owners by arming them with car information. Don’t forget to drop me a note at mailbag@hermoney.com if you used one of Scotty’s tips when you negotiated at the dealer!

  • Ep 441: The New Rules For Retirement

    Ep 441: The New Rules For Retirement
    Sep 18 2024
    A few months ago, AARP released a survey that found that one in five Americans over 50 reported having no retirement savings, and over half don’t think they'll have enough money to keep them going in retirement. While many of us used to have pension plans to keep us afloat in retirement, now the vast majority of us rely heavily on Social Security and 401(k)’s. Our system and our life expectancy are just different now…which means we need to plan differently. (And yes, this means we need to actually make a plan.) Christine Benz, author of How To Retire: 20 Lessons For A Happy, Successful, And Wealthy Retirement, shares her top strategies for planning the retirement of your dreams. Chapters: 00:00 The Retirement Crisis 02:00 Planning for Longer Lives 04:01 The Shift in Retirement System 06:50 Challenges of Retirement 10:01 Cognitive Decline and Long-Term Care 13:46 The Bucket Approach to Retirement 22:14 How To Calculate Retirement Needs 26:24 The Impact of Taxes on Retirement 29:04 Non-Financial Aspects of Retirement Have a question for us?

  • A “CD Tsunami” Is Coming: Are You Ready?

    A “CD Tsunami” Is Coming: Are You Ready?
    Sep 16 2024
    CDs (Certificates of Deposit) often get dismissed as "your parent's savings plan"—safe but, let's be honest, a little boring. But in today's high-interest-rate environment, they're making a strong comeback as a smart choice for short- and medium-term savings. With inflation cooling and the Fed expected to cut rates soon, these great rates won’t last forever. Joining us today is banking veteran and CEO of CD Valet, John Blizzard, to break down what CDs are, who should consider them, and whether now is the perfect time to invest. Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 03:14 How To Find the Best CD Rates 05:21 Retail CDs vs. Broker CDs 09:12 Locking in High CD Rates in a Decreasing Interest Rate Environment 11:24 CDs: A Savings Option for Savvy Savers, Retirees, and Event Savers 13:26 Shopping Around and Being Aware of CD Rollover Options 16:24 Considering Digital Capabilities When Opening a CD Takeaways CDs are a long-standing investment option that offer higher interest rates than savings accounts. Finding the best CD rates can be challenging as many community banks and credit unions are not searchable on popular rate comparison websites. With interest rates expected to decrease, now is a good time to lock in high CD rates. Savvy savers, retirees, and event savers are the primary audience for CDs. Shopping around for the best rates and being aware of CD rollover options are crucial. Have a question for us? Write to us at mailbag@hermoney.com. While you’re at it, join the HerMoney community!
