Marc: A lot happened in 2025, big political swings, stubborn inflation, new tax rules, and an historic government shutdown. But we're going to talk today about the biggest headlines and what they actually mean moving forward, if at all. So, stick around and let's get into this conversation here on Retirement Planning Redefined. Everybody, welcome into the podcast with John and Nick and myself here to talk investing finance and retirement, and a little year-end review going on this week here on the podcast, guys. A lot happened this year, so a lot to break down, but we'll jump in and say hey to the guys. And congratulations, Nick, on being a married fellow this time around. Nick: Thank you. I appreciate it. Marc: Yeah, everything go smoothly? Nick: Yep, everything went smooth. We had a little rain scare, which doesn't usually happen too much this time of year, but it all worked out. Marc: Nice. Very nice. John, did he behave himself? Was he good? John: He was good. I pulled up to the venue. He looked very relaxed in shorts and a t-shirt and I was all decked out and there was a problem with the situation here. He was very chill and I was dressed up way too early. Marc: Nice. John: So, no, he was excellent. He was very happy and it was a good day all around. Marc: Awesome. Well, very cool. Congratulations to you again, and the misses. And then with that, let's jump in and roll back the clock a little bit, guys, to April of 2025. Here we'll start there with the Liberation Day, right? So, the market didn't like it at first. So, let's talk about that. Nick: Yeah. So, this is all kind of in reference to when the main tariffs were announced earlier this year. And really, kind of the thought process is to kind of look back and in retrospect in a somewhat recent time, look back and see things that may have freaked people out over the past year when it was kind of an acute situation, and then kind of the short-term results and then slightly longer term result. And so, when the tariffs were announced, there was massive drawdowns in the market. There was really a substantial pullback. There was dealing with inflation, market volatility, etc. And in retrospect, looking back over this year itself, as we approached the end of the year, from a market perspective, ended up being a very positive year. And then when you look at it from the point in time at which we kind of bottomed out after the tariff news and there was a substantial drawdown, there was really a big run-up. So, it's just kind of the perspective of what went down and how it happened is interesting to look back on. Marc: Well, John, if you think about it, right, much like the COVID response, it was very much a V, right? So, it was a lot of sky is falling, doom and gloom, down 20% some indices, but then what, by May or June at the latest, it was back. John: Yeah, it's a little bit of a kind of yo-yo type thing. I remember that month it was down, kind of some potential news came out that happened wasn't real news, kind of came up a little bit and then went back down. And ultimately, the big takeaway as you compare it to COVID is stay of the course. We harp on having the plan in place and that goes on top of your investment plan. So, if you have a specific allocation, if you're moderate, aggressive, conservative, income based, whatever it might be, you really want to not panic when things like this happen because ultimately, especially with media nowadays, there's a lot of knee-jerk reactions. So, I think a big takeaway from this is stay the course, don't panic, just trust in your plan if you've actually taken those steps to do a comprehensive plan for overall planning and also investment planning. Marc: And granted, it's ...

    Big Beautiful Bill Myths Debunked
    Dec 18 2025
    Big tax law changes always bring big rumors. But before you assume Social Security is now tax-free or that you’re getting a $40K deduction just for breathing, let’s set the record straight on what this new bill didn’t actually do.

Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Insurance products and services are offered and sold through individually licensed and appointed insurance agents. Speaker 1: The big tax law changes always bring rumors, so before you get too hyped up or worried about anything, we thought we'd have a little fun and debunk some of the Big Beautiful Bill myths this week on the podcast. Let's get into it. Hey everybody, welcome into Retirement Planning - Redefined with John and Nick from PFG Private Wealth. And one more time, we thought we would revisit the Big Beautiful Bill, the OBBBA conversation. I like saying OBBBA, it's just fun. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Guys, just kind of hopefully maybe dispel some of these things, continue to have questions all throughout the year as we're closing out the year we're just trying to knock down some of those worries or some of those fears that people still have. So let's set the record straight a little bit. We'll have some fun with this. You guys can be myth busters on this episode, if you will. John, what's going on my friend? How are you? John Teixeira: Not too much. Just wondering if Nick gave my phone number to a list because all of a sudden today I'm getting bombarded with, "Do you need a driveway cleaned?" And some random stuff. So I think I'm getting punked. Speaker 1: Oh man, it's that time of the year. It seems like spam calls have gone just through the roof for the last couple of months, so I don't know. Nick McDevitt: My hypothesis on that is I feel like businesses are slowing down and they're kind of going back to their- Speaker 1: They're getting creative too. Nick McDevitt: Yeah, they're going back to their list client lists or different marketing tools. I feel like I've gotten re-added or added to a hundred new email lists in the last three weeks. So it's interesting. Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a weird thing. And the text thing and the email, it's like they have so much access to you. Constantly getting stuff and of course the phones are always listening, so you just get all this weird stuff. But I'm with you, John, same thing. Would you like to sell your house? John Teixeira: No. Nick complained about it a couple of weeks ago and I was like, "I'm not getting too much." And all of a sudden I think he's like, "Well, if I got to deal with it, John's got it too." So. Speaker 1: Either that or your phone was listening and said, "Oh, you're not getting it? We'll get one, then. Here it goes." John Teixeira: It could be that one too. Speaker 1: All right, let's jump into a few myths. We'll have some fun here. Myth number one, Nick, Social Security is no longer taxed. Nick McDevitt: Kind of for some. So just like most things, there's nuance to it. If your income falls within the threshold of where single or married filing jointly and singles, I think the 75,000 married filing jointly is the 150, then you actually get a $6,000 tax credit to help offset taxes that you may owe on your social security income. But it's not something that line item wise is gone. So for most people, up to 85% of their social security income is includeable in their overall taxable income. So this is a way that that amount can get reduced dependent upon the overall situation. Speaker 1: So technically no, they did not remove social security tax, but they're for certain brackets in certain age groups for a couple of years, you can definitely reap a benefit. So do that. But yeah, it didn't go away unfortunately. Myth number two, John, the new tax law means tax cuts for everybody. John Teixeira: Unfortunately not for everybody. Like we talked about in the last episode, the senior citizen tax deduction above the age of 65 is those single will get six, joint will get 12, but that's not even for everyone above 65. Well, because if you income level's too high, you also don't qualify. So not for everybody. And then even the SALT deduction, which Nick went into last ...

    What The “Big Beautiful Bill” Means For Your Retirement Plan
    Dec 4 2025

Speaker 1: This week on Retirement Planning Redefined, still a lot of questions out there about the Big Beautiful Bill and what happened earlier this year and some of those changes. So, we thought we would talk about that and touch on that as the year is winding down here on the podcast. So, stick around. Let's get into it. Hey, everybody. Welcome into Retirement Planning Redefined with John and Nick from PFG Private Wealth. Find them online at pfgprivatewealth.com. Guys, I know it's been around for a couple of months now, half a year or whatever, but still a lot of questions and things going on with the Big Beautiful Bill changes, especially as it affects retirees and pre-retirees. So, we thought we would dive back in and have a conversation on some of this and just maybe touch on some of the things you guys are still hearing a few months later and see if we can break this down a little bit for folks and help them out. John, how are you doing this week? John: Hey, I'm doing all right. Just getting ready for Thanksgiving here and just looking for some downtime right now. Speaker 1: Yeah, it's right here upon us. Nick, you're double whammy. You got Thanksgiving and then you got a wedding right after that. So, congratulations and happy holidays. Nick: Thanks. Yeah, it's going to be a busy end of the year. Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. Well, speaking of, let's get into our topic here because there's lot of stuff that's happening and changes and whatnot. So, let's just dive into some of the things and break some things down. The big piece obviously was that the tax brackets that we were under the TCJA since 2017 got extended. All year, we were wondering if that was going to happen as the year was winding down. This stuff was going to wrap up at the end of this year, but they extended it and they made it permanent. So, talk to me about that, whoever wants to take this. That's interesting language and confusion for some people, but what's your thoughts on the tax brackets being extended? John: Yeah, so the tax brackets from 2017 now remain in place where they were set to expire. So, they're as permanent as I guess you could be when it comes to tax brackets- Speaker 1: To Washington. John: ... to Congress. Yeah, exactly. So, obviously, Congress can make some changes at some point, but for right now, this is where we are. For retirees, important to take a look at historically where tax brackets have been and if you really pay attention where in some pretty low tax brackets if you look throughout time. So, now could be advantageous to some people to really develop some strategies to take advantage of this low tax bracket period for themselves because permanent doesn't mean too permanent as we just discussed. Depending on what happens, the next administration, things could not become permanent. Speaker 1: So I mean, one of the things Roth conversions has been really on the radar for many people for the last number of years because to your point of the historical tax lows, so now you do have some time to Roth over time for at least a couple more years anyway, until what, '28 or '29 potentially. John: Yeah, so Roth conversions is definitely something we implement for clients, and while this is going to be in place for the next few years. Maybe we get a little bit more aggressive and I think we're going to touch on it a little bit more in the podcast. We'll talk about some of the pitfalls to avoid with that because there are some new deductions that you want to remain below. Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for sure. Well, Nick, let's have you just jump in ...
