  • Promoting someone convicted of fraud?

    In the most recent podcast, Peter Strauss was mentioned as an insurance expert, which I am sure he is, but also as a great guy, etc. This man has just pled guilty in federal court to fraud. Needless to say he also lost his license. Disturbing for the AICPA to promote such a person.

  • Very poor audio quality

    I really want to get the information contained in the podcast, but the audio quality is too poor. I am new to the profession I would love to include it as a resource in my growing education.

  • Hey accountants—Sound quality matters

    Every single episode sounds like it was recorded in a tin can. There is NO good reason for this. Please find a marketing person, or just any person with any sense, and ask them to help you find a decent microphone or way to record somebody remotely.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Andrea Millar, From Financial Expert to Trusted Guide
Q: What practical first steps can advisors take to bring life planning into their existing process?
Andrea recommends starting with building the space for clients to talk about their lives, using the WAIT framework, and gradually introducing simple questions like What's most important to you about your money? Then, follow the thread, listen, and connect insights to the financial plan while staying authentic and non-judgmental.
Andrea Millar, From Financial Expert to Trusted Guide
Q: What are some signs that a client is unclear about their goals, and how can a CPA financial planner shift the conversation toward meaning and purpose?
Andrea explains that if clients stop engaging in deeper conversations and the meetings focus only on technical details, it signals a need to re-center on the client's life meaning. Practitioners should listen, ask open-ended questions, and connect what matters most to financial choices, using a simple, space-giving approach.
Small Planning Conversations That Lead to Bigger Engagements
Q: What makes 72(t) withdrawals a practical elevator conversation for clients under 59 1/2?
72(t) provisions allow substantially equal withdrawals to access funds without the 10% penalty, and with updated rules since 2021 it's feasible to run numbers and discuss the trade-offs quickly with clients.
Small Planning Conversations That Lead to Bigger Engagements
Q: How should planners rethink education funding to unlock more flexibility and long-term tax efficiency?
529 plans can be used beyond college funding, including paying for credentials, K-12 expenses, and even seeding Roth IRAs; these uses open up conversations and long-term planning opportunities without sacrificing tax benefits.
The Ripple Effect: How Financial Literacy Shapes Generations
Q: Why should financial planning professionals care about strengthening the foundation of financial literacy rather than just focusing on strategies and products?
Because foundational knowledge enables people to understand basic concepts, ask meaningful questions, and make better, more informed decisions. It also helps individuals identify when a professional is a good fit and allows professionals to extend their impact beyond individual clients by educating broader communities.
