Current volatility in the market, and the basics of reverse mortgages.

Scott and Pat begin this week’s show with a conversation about the current volatility in the market. They then take a call from a man who inherited $60,000 and wants to know where to invest the money in a low-risk investment. A caller who has worked for a company for a number of years must deal with a big change to his 401(k). A disabled couple who own their home wants to know if a reverse mortgage is a good idea. And, finally, a caller who filed for bankruptcy due to medical expenses has a couple of complex financial questions.

The Impact of a Forced Retirement

On this week’s Hanson McClain’s Money Matters, Scott and Pat talk about forced retirement and the impact it can have your financial plan.

Scott and Pat take a call from a woman who became disabled and had to retire: She’d like advice on how to adjust her portfolio. A caller wants to know if applying for disability now will impact his Social Security benefit later. A man wonders if he can lose his pension once he’s vested. Lastly, Scott and Pat welcome Hanson McClain advisor Justin Wilson, who recalls a client who wanted to retire young but wasn’t sure he could afford it.
