Big deficits usually show up when the economy is under stress.

That’s what makes the current situation different.

We’re more than five years into an economic expansion, inflation is still elevated, and the federal deficit has already reached about $1.8 trillion with two months left in the fiscal year.

Add the huge capital needs of the AI buildout, and there’s a lot of competition for money.

See why that combination is putting more pressure on the cost of capital: https://fmiwealth.com/insights/blog/fiscal-deficits-are-exploding-and-thats-a-problem/

The plan with the lowest monthly premium isn’t always the one that saves you the most money.

A plan might look great on paper, but once you add in your doctors, prescriptions, and what you’ll actually pay out of pocket, the numbers can shift fast.

That’s why open enrollment is about more than just comparing monthly premiums.

A retirement budget can look solid on paper and still miss what your lifestyle actually costs.

More time at home can mean higher utilities. More free time can turn into more dinners out, projects, or trips. Those little extras can add up faster than expected.

Instead of starting with what you think you’ll spend, it may help to look at what your current lifestyle is really costing you.

See the tips that can help you build a more realistic retirement spending plan: https://fmiwealth.com/insights/blog/dont-blow-your-budget-tips-to-create-your-retirement-spending-plan/

Oil may be getting most of the attention, but the inflation story is broader than energy.

Prices are still rising across everyday services, while manufacturers are also dealing with higher costs for things like electronics, steel, and semiconductors.

That broader pressure is one reason Carson’s Investment Research team is taking another look at what the Fed may do next.

Retirement can last for decades, and chances are, you won’t spend every year the same way.

At first, you might find yourself traveling more, trying new things, or spending on experiences you’ve always wanted. Later, life might slow down a bit. Healthcare and support may start to play a bigger role, too.

That’s why it’s helpful to think about how your life and your spending could change over time instead of planning around just one version of retirement.

Take a look at what each phase could mean for the retirement you’re working toward: https://fmiwealth.com/insights/blog/getting-ready-to-retire-how-to-be-fully-prepared/

It’s hard not to notice that $1,000 federal contribution right away.

But there’s a lot more to Trump Accounts than just that first deposit. Parents, grandparents, and even employers can pitch in over time, but most of those contributions have to stay under the same annual limit.

And when the child turns 18, the account changes again.

If your family is thinking about opening one, here’s what to know about how it works now and what changes later on: https://fmiwealth.com/insights/blog/trump-accounts-what-you-need-to-know-about-eligibility-contributions-and-long-term-planning/
