A life well lived is not measured by the size of the number you leave behind.

This week, we’re reflecting on what Dolly Parton got right about money, generosity, family, time, and the moments that make wealth meaningful.

Read more:

Dolly Parton spent more than six decades building the kind of career most people could hardly imagine. But after her death on August 25, 2026, at age 80, much of what people remembered and celebrated about Dolly had surprisingly little to do with how much money she made.

Back-to-school expenses are adding up, but your 529 may be able to do more than you think.

This week, we’re looking at what’s changed and the bigger question: when does it actually make sense to use those funds?

Most parents know what a 529 plan is. Fewer realize the rules around what that money can pay for have changed.And beginning in 2026, the list got meaningfully longer.

Having a will is important, but it may not control where **all** of your money goes.

Retirement accounts, life insurance policies, and certain bank or investment accounts can pass directly to the beneficiaries listed on the account. That means an old or forgotten beneficiary designation could lead to a very different result than what your will says.

This week’s blog explains why beneficiary designations matter and why reviewing them periodically can help make sure your estate plan reflects your wishes.

Read the full blog here:

Sitting inside an old 401(k), IRA, or life insurance policy may be a beneficiary form you filled out 10 or 20 years ago. And that little form may matter more than you think.

A great year in the market can still come with a not-so-great tax surprise.

This week’s blog explains why planning before year-end matters.

Read more:

Suddenly, the investment return and the amount you actually keep look like two very different numbers. This does not mean gains are bad. Making money and paying some tax is generally better than not making money at all. But it does mean a good investment year can create a tax surprise if nobody ...

Your cash may be earning more, but how much are you actually keeping?

This week’s blog looks beyond the headline yield and asks a better question: Does every dollar still have a job?

Cash can provide stability. It can create flexibility. It can help cover an emergency, fund a purchase, or keep you from selling investments at the wrong time. But there is another side to the story. The interest showing up in your account may not be the amount you actually keep.

We track our sleep, steps, productivity, spending, investments, and just about everything else.

But not every part of life needs to be perfectly optimized.

Sometimes paying down debt, holding extra cash, taking the family trip, or choosing more time over more income is the right decision, even when the spreadsheet says otherwise.

A financial plan should not turn your life into a set of numbers. The numbers should support the life you actually want to live.

Read this week’s blog: **We’re All Tired of Optimizing Everything**

At first, all of this information feels useful. Data gives us a sense of control. It helps us notice patterns, make adjustments, and understand whether we are moving in the right direction.But at some point, optimization stops feeling like control.It starts feeling like another job.

Why wait until an inheritance to help the people you love?

Giving while living may allow you to see your wealth help your family buy a home, reduce stress, or build a stronger future.

Read more:

The inheritance still matters. But it may not matter in the same way it would have 20 years earlier.That raises an important question. What if part of the wealth transfer happened when the family could actually use it most?

Most people wait until December to review their finances. By then, some of the best planning opportunities may have already passed.

July gives you something better: enough information to see where you stand and enough time to make meaningful adjustments.

This week’s blog covers eight areas worth reviewing before summer slips away.

Most people think financial planning happens in December. That is when retirement contributions get topped off, charitable donations are made, and everyone starts asking the same question: "Is there anything I can still do before year-end?" The honest answer is often, "Maybe."

Everyone is traveling right now.

The pictures look great. The hotels look nicer. The dinners look better. And before you know it, your vacation starts competing with everyone else’s.

That is where the spending gets dangerous.

This week’s blog is about taking the trip, enjoying it, and not letting someone else’s vacation make yours more expensive.

AAA projected 72.2 million Americans would travel at least 50 miles from home for Independence Day between June 27 and July 5. That includes 61.4 million people traveling by car and 5.85 million flying domestically.That tells us something important.Even after years of higher prices, higher rates, an...

Most people don’t think of themselves as AI investors.

But if you own a 401(k), index fund, or target-date fund, you may have more AI exposure than you realize.

That’s not a reason to panic. It’s a reason to look.

Read this week’s blog:

Most people do not think of themselves as AI investors. They think they own a 401(k). Or an index fund. Or a target-date fund. Or "the market."
