There is a shift away from providing long-term care services in hospitals and nursing homes to proving them in individuals’ homes. This was happening before the pandemic, but the trend is now accelerating for several reasons. Many nursing homes did not allow visitors for months during the pandemic, understandably leading to many worried families and lonely older people. Many COVID-19 deaths have occurred in nursing homes and those who were not infected often experienced long periods of isolation. This pandemic will lead many people to question whether there’s a better way to provide care to [...]

There's evidence to suggest that we might be experiencing historically low tax rates right now. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act will expire in 2025 or possibly sooner if there’s a leadership change in Washington. By the end of the year, total government debt is expected to almost equal the size of the U.S. economy.[1] This is one trend to keep an eye on when planning for retirement since taxes could rise in the future to pay for increased spending now. One popular long-term tax minimization strategy is to use a Roth IRA. However, there [...]

We’ve all heard that exercise is good for us, but it can be hard to commit to when our normal routines are disrupted. Over the course of a career spent working countless hours and long nights, we may have gotten somewhat out of shape, and this trend is likely to continue if we’re stuck inside more than usual. We might think it’s too late to get back into shape by the time we’re retired, or pointless to carve out time for physical activity, but this isn’t true. For starters, it could help you stay active [...]

Regardless of who wins the election, Social Security will surely remain a hot button issue. The program currently pays out more than it takes in, and this trend is likely to continue. The Social Security trust fund was projected to run out in 2035, at which point about 79% of benefits would be payable.[1] However, that projection was made before the pandemic and increased unemployment hit. President Trump and Presidential Candidate Joe Biden have different ideas for how to change the program, and the outcome of the election could affect Social Security. The Financial State [...]
