Why Retirement Planning Gets More Difficult With Every Year You Wait

Dec 30, 2025

What’s the most expensive retirement mistake people make—without even realizing it? Waiting too long to start.

In this episode, the team dives into why starting early matters more than how much you save, and how the power of compounding can quietly do the heavy lifting over time. From jaw-dropping examples of small contributions turning into seven figures, to real-life stories that bring investing to life, this conversation makes the math (and the motivation) feel real.

You’ll hear why longevity is changing the retirement equation, how inflation complicates “safe” savings choices, and what to do if you feel behind—whether you’re in your 30s, 50s, or even closer to retirement than you’d like. The discussion also explores smart ways to take advantage of employer matches, catch-up contributions, and flexible options for self-employed individuals.

One of the biggest takeaways? It’s never too early—or too late—to build better habits. Starting now, staying consistent, and letting time work for you can completely change the outcome.

If you’ve ever thought, “I’ll get serious about retirement later,” this is the episode you’ll want to hear before another year slips by.

How Smart Investors Close Out 2025!

Dec 23, 2025

As we close the books on 2025, the entire WWM crew comes together for a fast-paced, insightful, and occasionally hilarious year-end market recap. From strong equity returns and surprise leadership from international markets to the continued dominance of AI, this episode breaks down what actually mattered and what investors may be underestimating heading into 2026.

There’s also a reflective pause in this conversation because the end of the year isn’t just about numbers. It’s about perspective. After navigating uncertainty, policy shifts, rate debates, and emotional market swings, this episode acknowledges what many investors are feeling right now: gratitude for resilience, relief after volatility, and cautious optimism for what’s ahead. It’s a moment to step back, take stock of progress, and remember why planning matters beyond performance.

We unpack:

How U.S. markets finished the year (and whether a Santa Claus rally still has legs)
Why international and emerging markets quietly stole the spotlight
The real story behind rate cuts, inflation data, and why lower rates aren’t guaranteed
Gold, commodities, and what fear, geopolitics, and central banks have to do with it
Key tax and planning takeaways after a year of uncertainty—and what moves still matter before the calendar flips

Plus, practical year-end reminders around Roth conversions, charitable giving, retirement contributions, and why early-January market volatility wouldn’t be surprising.

Thoughtful, candid, and grounded in real-world planning this is the kind of conversation worth ending the year with.

What Investors Miss When Markets Stabilize But Policy Changes!

Dec 19, 2025

Markets may fluctuate week to week, but long-term planning requires a much wider lens. In this episode, the WWM team discusses how inflation, interest rates, and longer lifespans are reshaping retirement strategies and why investors may need to rethink traditional portfolio assumptions to stay ahead.

You’ll hear a clear update on year-to-date market performance, the latest CPI inflation reading, and what shifting rate-cut expectations could mean for 2026 and beyond. The conversation dives into why CDs and money markets may feel safe but could quietly erode purchasing power after inflation and taxes. The team also explains why volatility isn’t the same as risk and why being too conservative later in life can be one of the biggest retirement mistakes.

Highlights include:

Why inflation still matters even when markets are up
The hidden downside of sitting in cash and CDs
How longer lifespans are changing retirement portfolio design
What tax strategies like Roth conversions and tax-loss harvesting really mean
Why innovation, growth, and optimism still matter for long-term investors

A timely, practical conversation for anyone navigating today’s uncertain markets while planning for a longer financial future.

The Inflation Strategy Most People Don’t Realize They Need!

Dec 12, 2025

Markets may look calm on the surface, but underneath, powerful shifts are already underway. While headlines focus on “flat” weeks, quieter parts of the market are breaking out, inflation is behaving in unexpected ways, and investors are starting to reposition for what could be a very different 2026. In this episode of WWM Talks, the guys dig into what’s really driving returns right now, and why paying attention to the wrong signals could mean missing the next phase of opportunity.

You’ll hear why smaller stocks, equal-weighted indexes, and overlooked sectors are quietly making new highs, how falling interest rates are reshaping market leadership, and why this doesn’t look like a replay of the 2000 tech bubble. The conversation also dives into inflation’s stickiest drivers housing, food, labor, and services and what they mean for Fed policy going forward.

The group explores rising M&A activity, the massive AI spending boom, energy constraints, and why business investment could be a powerful tailwind heading into 2026. Plus, a candid discussion on taxes, profit-taking, and why paying more in taxes often means you’re doing something right.

A thoughtful, forward-looking episode for investors focused on the bigger picture, not the daily drama.
