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: </p><p><br></p><p>1.&nbsp;Talking points: What Jewish Tradition Teaches About Leaving a Lasting Legacy</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>2.&nbsp;This week’s quote is from Harvey Firestone on big houses.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>3.&nbsp;I planned to spend a few years learning in Israel and then a year in kollel, with financial support from my father and father in law. They both backed out. What should I do now.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>4.&nbsp;A money manager from my shul is soliciting me, claiming his returns far exceed those of my current advisor and pressuring me to switch. How should I evaluate this.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>5.&nbsp;A prospective advisor suggested keeping my home purchase funds invested and borrowing against the portfolio instead. Is that a smart strategy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>6.&nbsp;My son skipped college, spent time in Israel, and now sells appliances. He earned six figures last year and bought a car with cash. He could get into college but has no interest. Should we push him toward a degree or support his current path.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>7.&nbsp;I am financially successful. What key financial planning and investment considerations should someone with significant wealth prioritize.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>8.&nbsp;My colleagues mentioned NUA in relation to company stock in a 401(k). What is NUA and when does it make sense.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>9.&nbsp;My adult son is unmotivated, disengaged, and has no career direction. I want him off my payroll and am considering suggesting a job at the DMV. What other roles fit someone with his temperament.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>10.&nbsp;I am a newer financial advisor, and many friends with salaried jobs are condescending when I market my business. They do not understand what it takes to build a practice, and it is discouraging. How do I handle this dynamic.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>11.&nbsp;I am looking for an affordable home in a New York area suburb that feels friendly, inclusive, and somewhat out of town. How can I identify communities like that.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>12.&nbsp;Timely &amp; Actionable Idea: tax traps to avoid, in particular missing out on your cheapest tax years to do Roth IRA conversions.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>***Upcoming Live FALL Webinar:</strong> Get notified of upcoming LIVE webinars by signing up for my webinar distribution list here: <a href=\"https://www.parkbridgewealth.com/webinars\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.parkbridgewealth.com/webinars</a>*** </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>***<strong>My FIRST book:</strong> <em>D is for Diversification: The ABCs of Personal Finance</em> available on Amazon or at <a href=\"http://www.jonathanonmoney.com%2A%2A%2A/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>www.JonathanOnMoney.com</strong>***</a> </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Stay connected:</p><p>1) Questions?
