When is the best time to retire—during a bull market or a BEAR market? Studies show that every one percent gain in the S & P increases the likelihood of those considering retirement to take the plunge and retire, by a factor of 2.5%. In other words, hard data shows that a person on the verge of retirement is 25% more likely to go ahead and retire if the S & P is up by 10%. If it is up by 20% the likelihood of deciding to retire rises by 50%. So, most people choose a bull market to retire into. Here’s the problem—retiring near the end of a bull market increases the risk of income failure in retirement-- dramatically! On today's show, we'll share data on just how risky it is to retire into an aging bull market, especially with these low interest rates. Steve will then explain how clients are retiring on a six figure income even if they don't have a million dollars.   MASTERING MONEY IS IN THE AIR!!

There are a number of ways to approach managing investments in retirement... You can choose from growth strategies, value strategies, market timing strategies, technical trading, or simply put money in cash and wait for the next market crash—which is in itself a form of market timing.  Intuitively, market timing seems the most sensible to the amateur investor. Its so simple—just get in the market when its going up, and then get out just before it starts going down. After all, what could be so hard about that? Well, we all know that kind of strategy is very difficult and doomed to fail! So, what is the secret to figuring out the best way to manage your money. Step one is to ask yourself whether you are an investor looking for systematic long term growth, a speculator, or a SAVER--not interested in losing a penny of your money! On today's show, we will help you get completely clear on the best way to manage your investments. MASTERING MONEY is on the air!!

One of the simplest ways for companies to communicate financial well-being and shareholder value is to say "the dividend check is in the mail." Of course today, dividends don’t get mailed—they simply get deposited into your brokerage account every quarter, giving you the choice to spend the cash for income or reinvest the dividend into more shares.   But do you know the biggest mistake you can make when buying dividend stocks? Amateur investors who invest without a defined strategy are lured by a fool’s game known as a “dividend trap.”  You can buy a high dividend stock today, and lose ten percent tomorrow! We’ll show you exactly how it works and how to avoid it. Then commodity expert Terry Shveda joins us to discuss how Tariffs and trade wars are affecting commodities.

Retiring can be the most exciting thing you ever do, but it can also be one of the scariest. Right when you thought you had everything figured out, questions can arise. Doubt can set in.  It’s quite normal for example, to be asking yourself questions like “have I set aside enough money?”  “How will I make my income last?” and “What if the stock market falls right at the beginning or in the middle of my retirement?” But there is another question that many people have been asking—and maybe you have, too….“Will Social Security always be there for me?”  Well, the news that just came out from the Social Security and Medicare trustees recently isn’t pretty. The official Trustee's report says that Social Security’s trust fund is still on pace to go completely insolvent in 2034.  Medicare is in worse shape. Trustees say Medicare will become insolvent in 2026! — less than eight years from now!. What do these huge events mean to you and how can you protect yourself?
