Join Jonathan I. Shenkman, President and Chief Investment Officer of ParkBridge Wealth Management, this week as he discusses a variety of timely investing and financial planning topics, including:
1. Talking points: Nine Days, Nine Lessons: What Our Period of Mourning Teaches Us About Money
2. This week’s quote is from Abigail Disney on flying private
3. I rolled over my old 401(k) to my advisor years ago and now cannot do backdoor Roth contributions because of the pro rata rule. What is this rule, and should I be upset that this limits my options?
4. Thoughts on single‑stock ETFs?
5. I am 63, financially independent, and still working because I find it moderately rewarding. I do not need more money, but I am unsure what I would do if I retired. When is the right time to stop working?
6. My money is at Schwab in very low‑cost funds, but Fidelity offers some zero‑fee funds. Should I sell my Schwab funds and move to Fidelity to avoid ongoing expenses?
7. The wealthiest people in history often became rich by concentrating in one stock rather than diversifying. Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Gates all did this. Are finance textbooks wrong, and are index funds simply a path to average returns?
8. My parents in Los Angeles need a new advisor. Would you travel there to meet them?
9. Are all‑inclusive resorts worth it?
10. I transferred my account to a new investment firm and believe I missed an $80 dividend during the transition. My account is $500,000, but I still want that dividend reimbursed. How do I resolve this?
11. Timely & Actionable Idea: Avoid big investment decisions during the Nine Days.
