The Gerri Willis Podcast

Welcome to Rich is Not a Four-Letter Word, the podcast for your wallet. I’m Gerri Willis with the Fox Business Network. Tax Day 2019 is fast approaching and this year, more than ever, you’ll want to take special care with your filing as this is the first year that tax reform takes effect. Kathy Pickering, executive director of the Tax Institute at H&R Block, says tax filers should be prepared for many changes. First off, tax rates were lowered across the board in every tax bracket. New marginal tax rates go from 10%, 12%, 25%, 28%, 33%, 35% and 39.6% to 10%, 12%, 22%, 24%, 32%, 35% and 37%. Check out https://taxfoundation.org/2019-tax-brackets/ for bracket details.Here are the takeaways: While many people were looking for a big refund, the reality is that refunds are about on par for a normal year. If you failed to change withholding to account for the tax rate changes, however, you could find yourself owing money to the federal government rather than getting that refund, she says. Pickering said it was easy to overlook the difference in income because the savings were spread out over the course of the year. A secondary goal of reform was to encourage filers to complete the short form rather than taking deductions. Any reliable tax software package can help you decide whether to skip the long form. Small business owners should be sure to take advantage of a new 20 percent deduction on qualified business income. Business owners with 2018 income below $157,500 if single or $315,000 if married and filing jointly may qualify.  The tax break applies to owners of “pass-through” entities, including sole proprietorships, S-corporations and partnerships. Finally, Pickering suggests watching the details of your filing. Avoid simple mistakes like failing to sign your form, or getting the incorrect names or social security numbers for members of blended families. If you can’t make your payment in full, file for an extension using IRS form 4868. This will give you until Oct. 15 to file, but even so, you’ll have to make at least a partial payment on your tax bill. H&R Block research, she says, shows that anxiety associated with tax season runs high. That may be why respondents in an H&R survey said their favorite companion when filling out tax forms is a glass of wine. Take a listen to the podcast!

Welcome to Rich is Not a Four-Letter Word, the podcast for your wallet. I’m Gerri Willis with the Fox Business Network. This week golf history will be made as the inaugural Augusta National Women’s Amateur event gets underway at Augusta National , the home of the season-starting PGA major, the Master’s Golf Tournament. It will be the first time Augusta’s famed park-like setting will be home to a women’s competition. It’s been just seven years since the club allowed women as members. Augusta is hosting 72 women ages 14 to 24 and representing 25 countries vie to win the 54-hole tournament. Competition will start at the Champion’s Retreat course and the final round is scheduled for Saturday on the course that hosts PGA legends. The event featured reprises of some of the classic events that made the men’s event famous, a Drive, Chip and Putt Championship as well as an opening tee shot ceremony. That event for the men is typically hosted by Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus, but the women’s event will be hosted by champions Annika Sorenstam, Nancy Lopez, Lorena Ochoa and Se Ri Pak. Lopez, a winner of 48 LPGA tour events and three championships, said, “What an honor. The best players from all over the world are playing there. It’s just a fantastic event for these young women.” Tournament contenders and amateurs, Sierra Brooks and Maria Fassi, said they were excited to participate in the inaugural event. Fassi said the tournament will be transformative not just for women’s golf but for all of the sport. Take a listen to the podcast!

Welcome to Rich is Not a Four-Letter Word, the podcast for your wallet. I’m Gerri Willis with the Fox Business Network. Ellen Latham is the co-founder  of Orangetheory Fitness, the highly successful gym franchise that is taking the country by storm. Latham, an Exercise Physiologist, is attempting to help members remake their bodies from the ground up to be healthier and better off. I spoke with her recently about building the business. Here are the takeaways: Focus on what you have, not what you don’t have. Starting the business was equal parts desperation and inspiration for Ellen, who started pursuing her own business after she was let go from a high-end Miami Beach gym, where she was manager. When that happened her father told her to focus on what she could do and what she had, and she soon got back into the fitness mix offering her own Pilates class. Start simple. At first, Latham was looking to develop a workout that she could offer a small number of clients. In the early years, she didn’t even dream of starting a company that would ultimately have 1200 franchised locations and a high profile around the country. Don’t just show up. Go out to perform the best you possibly can in everything you do. Take a listen to the podcast! Follow me on Twitter @gerriwillisFBN and on Facebook, where my handle is GerriWillis.

Welcome to Rich is Not a Four-Letter Word, the podcast for your wallet. I’m Gerri Willis with the Fox Business Network. This week, I’m talking to Rob Franek, Editor-In-Chief of the Princeton Review, about the college admissions scandal. Prosecutors announced that 50 people took part in a scheme that involved cheating on standardized tests or bribing college coaches and school officials to accept students as college athletes even if the student never played that sport. Two Stanford University students have also filed a federal lawsuit seeking class-action status against the universities named by prosecutors. Franek, who counsels students and parents about how to gain admission to highly competitive Ivy League schools, described the scandal as “despicable and deplorable.”Here are the takeaways: If you’re the parent of a student applying for admission for next fall, don’t despair. Seventy percent of the three million students applying for admission will get into their first-choice school. Statistically, college grads earn two million dollars over the course of their careers – much more than non-grads. What’s more, college grads have lower rates of unemployment. Watch for college admissions administrators to provide more clarity and transparency into admissions protocols. There will be changes to the systems to make sure such cheating cannot happen again.

Hello and welcome to Rich Is Not a Four-Letter Word, the podcast for your wallet.  I’m Gerri Willis with the Fox Business Network. Today my special guest is Veronica Dagher, Wall Street Journal wealth management reporter and the host of the podcast, Secrets of Wealthy Women, a series of fascinating conversations with successful women talking about how they made it and how they manage their money. Here are the takeaways: Financially successful women take an active role in their finances. They know what they own and what they owe. No one is going to pick you out and make you a star – you have to put your hand up and be able to ask for what you want. Another thing that really differentiates these women is that when they fall down, they get back up. Take a listen to the podcast!

Welcome to Rich is Not a Four-Letter Word, the podcast for your wallet. I’m Gerri Willis with the Fox Business Network and today I’m talking with Tom Zgainer, CEO and founder of America’s Best 401(k) about market volatility. What should retirement savers and 401(k) investors do when the market posts big swings? And, how can you identify the fees and costs that are robbing your precious savings? Zgainer knows a lot about this because his company advises small business about how to set up high quality retirement programs. Most small business operators don’t have the time or interest in fully vetting retirement programs and that is where America’s Best 401(k) comes in. Zgainer advises that savers who aren’t close to retirement — more than five years away — should forget the noise. And, everyone should continue investing, no matter what. Remember, if the market tanks, you’re buying assets on sale; always better than overpaying. Two things are critical for small investors, he says. Start early and make sure your costs are low.  He says that an investor who starts saving at age 25 and only continues saving for 10 years will have more money at retirement than someone who starts saving at 35 and saves til 65. Giving your money time to grow is essential. Reducing costs is also key. He says that 70 percent of participants in 401(k) plans believe they pay no investment related fees. That, says Zgainer, is wrong. To find out what your plan is charging, go to the providers’ website and get a copy of the fee disclosure. Even easier, check out the website Zgainer shares on the podcast to find out — pronto — if you are overpaying!   Take a listen to the podcast!

Hi, I’m Gerri Willis from the Fox Business Network and host of the podcast, Rich is Not a Four-Letter Word. I talked to legendary supermodel and businesswoman Christie Brinkley on the New York Stock Exchange floor about her new product Bellissima Bambini. As an entrepreneur and owner of multiple businesses, Brinkley is proud to offer the only zero sugar, all natural, certified organic prosecco in the marketplace. She reiterates the importance of offering a 100% natural product by sharing that there can be over 52 chemicals in your standard prosecco, including chemicals once deemed safe that are not considered so anymore. Brinkley also offers up a piece of advice for young women, something she writes on the neck of every Bellissima bottle: “Dream big Bellissima dreams and may they all come true.” Take a listen to the podcast!

Hi, I’m Gerri Willis from the Fox Business Network and host of the podcast, Rich is Not a Four-Letter Word. Volatility. That’s what we’ve got in the stock market these days and whether you’re an active investor in stocks or simply a set it and forget it 401(k) holder, you need to understand what to expect. Fortunately we have Lindsey Bell, CFRA investment strategist, in to talk about what you need to do during these volatile times. Navigating rocky markets can be frightening but as Lindsey will show, a little information can make the trip easier.Here are the takeaways: Understand the in insider market talk. It’s really not that hard. A pullback is a market decline of 5 percent to 9.9 percent. Pullbacks are common, happening once every nine months, and recovering takes a mere one and a half months. According to CFRA, we’ve had 56 bull-market pullbacks since World War II. A correction is a pullback of 10 percent to 19.9 percent and a bear market is a decline of 20 percent from highs. Lindsey says a bear market is usually caused by the economy falling into recession and, she says, that doesn’t appear to be in the cards, not now, anyway. Stay faithful to tech. According to Lindsey, technology stocks still have the best growth potential among major stock sectors. Even though so-called FANG stocks, Facebook, Apple, Netflix and Google, have led the markets for sometime now, their fortunes are more secure because their fundamentals are sound, she says. The biggest threat to the market? Lindsey says it’s the Federal Reserve, and higher interest rates. The Fed is on target for at least one more rate hike this year, and Lindsey says that over doing the rate hikes to wring inflation out of the economy is the biggest potential problem for markets. Higher rates clip stock performance as companies face higher operating costs. Take a listen to the podcast! Follow me on Twitter @gerriwillisFBN and on Facebook, where my handle is GerriWillis.

Hello, I’m Gerri Willis and welcome to Rich Is Not A Four Letter Word, the podcast for your wallet. One word to focus on today – volatility. That’s what the stock market has been all about and what traders down on Wall Street are talking about. I spoke to one of them on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, Stephen Guilfoyle, also known as Sarge, about what to make of the extreme ups and downs plaguing the market now. Here’s what he told me.Here are the takeaways: When the volatility becomes extreme – take a breath and step back. The truth is, this volatility is making traders with lots of experience nervous. The market these days moves more quickly and in larger waves than ever before largely because of computerized trading and algorithmic trading. Also, we are at higher levels in the market – so a 100 point swing isn’t as big a deal as it used to be. Algorithmic trading is not your friend. Guilfoyle says that this type of trading, automated and pre-programmed, aims to make money by anticipating what small investors will do. If the large moves both up and down have you unnerved, he suggests looking at dividend paying stocks because even if your stock plummets, you’ll still get a quarterly payment, a distribution that can make the pain of a lower stock price a little less hurtful. Guilfoyle says don’t bet against tech yet. He says that sectors like semiconductors and cloud computing will continue to grow. Take a listen to the podcast!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Fox Business Network’s Gerri Willis joined “The Story with Martha MacCallum” last night and opened up about her battle with lobular breast cancer, a type of cancer that represents just 10 to 15 percent of breast cancer cases. After being diagnosed in April 2016, Gerri underwent a mastectomy and chemotherapy treatments, but it took her a little while to fully come to terms with her diagnosis. Now, cancer-free, Gerri shares how she is happier than ever. Listen to more about Gerri’s inspiring journey below: Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Hi, I’m Gerri Willis from the Fox Business Network and host of the podcast, Rich Is Not a Four-Letter Word. Today, we’re talking to Jonathan Stein, the founder and CEO of Betterment, an online service that automates investing. Some folks call Jonathan’s business a robo-advisor. But as you are about to find out, his business does much more than that.Here are the takeaways: Betterment automates investing using an online interface that allows investors to make their own choices. This new age brokerage has no account minimums and charges a quarter of a basis point in fees. In other words, if you kept $100 at Betterment, you’d be charged a quarter for the privilege. These days, though, Betterment is doing more than just offering low costs, providing users with financial advice developed for their specific situation from certified financial planners. The key to Betterment’s business model is that it removes the conflict that was at the heart of many of the brokers’ businesses. Advisors were paid commissions for selling product, setting up a situation where commissions could drive advice. Stein says he has solved that problem by putting advisors on salary, freeing them up to recommend whatever makes sense to customers. Stein says that too many Americans are still shy of investing in the wake of the financial crisis ten years ago. In a survey conducted by betterment, two-thirds of folks said they were investing less now than before the crash. In the interim, stocks have embarked on the longest-running bull market in history and those that stayed home, well, they’ve missed out. Take a listen to the podcast!

Millennials coming to the rescue of the great institution of marriage — thanks to younger couples getting married later, say experts — the nation’s divorce rate is on the decline, dropping by 18 percent between 2008 and 2016. The researcher Philip Cohen says millennial marriages are more stable because their lives are in greater order when they tie the knot. “We see people getting married at older ages, people getting married with college degrees already. They are less likely to be already divorced or have children when they get married, both of which are risk factors for divorce.”Here are the takeaways: The University of Maryland study shows that a 35-year-old millennial today is more likely to hit his or her fifth wedding anniversary than a 35-year-old gen x-er was in 2008. The researcher Philip Cohen says millennial marriages are more stable because their lives are in greater order when they tie the knot. “We see people getting married at older ages, people getting married with college degrees already. They are less likely to be already divorced or have children when they get married, both of which are risk factors for divorce.” The divorce rate could decline even more in future years as marriages become more selective, rarer and more stable.

She’s the host of “The Daily Briefing” with Dana Perino, a co-host of “The Five” and mom of Jasper – Dana Perino – is an inspiration to many Americans because of her hard work and smarts. And, yet, as a former White House press secretary – she famously worked for George W. Bush – she’s not someone you think of as being interested in money. That’s all wrong. Dana has thought a lot about money and faced her own financial anxieties.Here are the takeaways: One of Dana’s earliest money memories is associated with her mom, a frugal woman, who bought a large “D” applique to sew on young Dana’s pants pocket so the grade-schooler could have a pair of “designer jeans.” Her parents both schooled Dana in keeping her spending under control. And, she saw women in her own family wrestle with financial issues. When her grandfather died, leaving behind her grandmother to cope alone, she didn’t even know how to write a check. By the time Dana was a young adult, her anxiety was such that she would stay three car payments ahead – just in case. That attitude would cause friction with her husband, Peter, who would time payments for the last possible minute before the deadline. The early years in Dana’s marriage weren’t easy financially. They moved to the West Coast with nothing but a dog. She remembers consulting her husband about whether they could afford a dinner out. These days, Dana allows her husband to handle money matters, turning over the checkbook to Peter. That, she says, allows her to focus on her job and hectic schedule. It’s an arrangement that seems to work well for both of them. But even today, Dana still talks about her concern about financial anxiety – especially among recent college grads and young families.

Women face unique financial challenges that men will likely never encounter. Consider that at retirement women have a third less in retirement savings than their male counterparts. That’s typically because women earn less and work less over their lifetime compared to men. In the 20th edition of “Smart Women Finish Rich,” author and Co-Founder of AE Wealth Management, David Bach sounds the alarm for women to alert them to this issue and incentivize them to make changes.Here are the takeaways: 80 percent of men die married; 80 percent of women die widowed. The average age that women are widowed is 59. That means women need to be better prepared financially for life on their own in old age. First steps first, couples need to share their financial information. Men need to let them know about any and all 401(k) plans, insurance policies, bank accounts. That information will be critical for women who may be on their own for the first time in their lives. Now’s the time to be conservative. Stocks (if you reinvest dividends) are up 400 percent since the end of the financial crisis in 2009. Take a listen to the podcast!

Last month the bull market officially became the oldest ever as it surpassed 3,453 days. But it raises the question, are you too late to the party to invest now? Are stocks too expensive? And of course, where should you put your money now? Those are some of the questions I put to Jack Otter, Associate Publisher of Barron’s and a long-time personal finance expert.Here are the takeaways: Yes, the market is up 320 percent from its lows, and that’s a concern for Otter, who reminds small investors that the market can stay irrational longer than the individual can stay solvent. What do you do if you’re worried that a sell-off is imminent? He says a well-balanced, diversified portfolio is the best defense. That means an allocation of assets appropriate for your age. In other words, the closer you are to retirement, the more your portfolio should be away from high octane investments like technology and other growth stocks. Like a lot of avid market watchers, Otter believes that it’s time to consider moving beyond the so-called fang stocks, big cap, high growth companies like Facebook and Netflix. Although, he says, a handful of these still have room to run because they aren’t that expensive compared to their earnings streams. Finally, Otter recommends two sectors for consideration – healthcare and commodities – as good options for investors worried about the inevitable fall market choppiness. Take a listen to the podcast!

If you are looking for a job with high pay, Glassdoor has your number. The employment website Glassdoor ranked job titles by average base salary. For a job to be considered it had to receive at least 100 salary reports. The company used a statistical algorithm to standardize base pay numbers, controlling for factors like location and seniority.Here are the takeaways: It’s all about healthcare and especially technology. Out of the top 25 jobs listed 13 were in technology, two more than last year. To be sure, some of these jobs require years of training, but many of these career paths are set to reward workers for years to come. Weigh the pay against the costs of education to be in that field. Physicians may earn a median salary of $195,000, but they typically are in school for eight years, internships add to the length of that education experience. Pharmacists and pharmacy managers earn top pay and their educational requirements are far less. Take a listen to the podcast!
