Most advisors focus on the accumulation of money - how to grow and reduce risk. We want to pay attention to distribution - when it is time to use your money.
What you need money for is more important than how much money you have.
It is true - you need lots of money to make it in today's world. Different financial tools do the different financial jobs of life better than others.
In accumulation, if you have 15-20 non-correlated assets you theoretically reduce your risk to zero on the way up.
The same is true on the way out. If you have 15-20 different types of financial tools operating you reduce your lifetime financial risk to zero.

The One, Big, Beautiful(?) Bill
We take a look at this massive piece of legislation signed into law in early July 2025.
Key Question: Does this legislation help us in regards to The Future Poor or does it only make it worse?
The end of income tax on Social Security? Not exactly. You might get a tax credit, but the tax is still there.
Medicaid? The Bill will move almost 11 million seniors and children off Medicaid in the next few years.
CHIP? Child Health Insurance Program is part of the $1 Trillion reduction of benefits.
16 Million - Estimate of the number of people that will be uninsured after the OBBB goes into effect. Most of this number is the elderly, children, disabled, and other vulnerable communities.
Food? 20% of the people on SNAP (food stamps) are seniors over the age of 60 that depend on the program for food and up the age for work requirements.
Social Security runs out sooner? Many estimate that this will speed up Social Security's insolvency from 2035-6 to 2032-3.
