Data Watch: Housing Market Recovery

Data Watch: Housing Market Recovery

While we don't usually record a podcast for every new piece of financial market data we come across, this one seemed especially important. Existing home sales rose in August for a third consecutive month, hitting a new high that hasn't been seen since 2006, before the financial crisis. Sales collapsed from February to May as Coronavirus panic set in, so this full recovery is a great sign of the housing market's resilience. Get all the data and more in episode 10 of the Money Management Podcast.

Thankfulness and The End of The Decade | Required Minimum Distributions (RMD) | 401K Contribution Limits

Thankfulness and The End of The Decade | Required Minimum Distributions (RMD) | 401K Contribution Limits

In this maiden voyage of the Money Management podcast, meet our host, Ed Newton, as he puts things into context to help us understand when and where we are. Reflecting on the technological and financial highlights and surprises of the last few decades, we are reminded that the future is not always predictable, but that we are living in one of the best possible times to be alive. 

Ed shares some best practices around required minimum distributions (RMD). RMDs can be tricky to navigate,  and if you are around the age of 70 you need to be aware of potential penalties for not taking your RMD. These RMD penalties can be as high as 50% of the amount not taken. 

Ed also has some good news about increases in 401K and profit-sharing plan contribution limits for the new year– most people will see an increase in allowed contributions. Find out if YOUR contribution limit for your retirement or profit-sharing plan has been increased!
