Is retiring at 55 with a $2M nest egg realistic? On this episode of Money Matters, Scott and Pat break down the numbers with a caller aiming for an early exit from the corporate grind. They discuss how to balance pre-tax 401(k)s, Roths, RSUs, and taxable brokerage accounts—plus how to front-load 529 plans without triggering unnecessary taxes.
Scott and Pat also dive into:
The Rise of Private Equity: What proposed SEC changes mean for everyday investors, and the hidden risks, lack of liquidity, and valuation pitfalls of alternative investments in 401(k) plans.
Building a Multi-Generational Legacy: A caller asks how to pass down a $2M estate efficiently. The hosts discuss asset location, when Roth conversions make sense across generations, and navigating RMDs.
Family Wealth Conversations: Why talking to your adult children about trustees and estate planning today prevents headaches tomorrow.
