In Episode 42 of the podcast I talked about how to use a particular type of savings account (referred to as a 529 account) to save for your children’s education. I gave some general information and urged people with children to look into them. However, I always wanted to revisit this topic later for a deeper dive.

That’s why on this episode of the podcast I talk with Michael Karwic, a Certified Financial Planner in Pennsylvania, to take a more in-depth look at educational savings accounts to help you get started in saving for your children’s future!

In this episode you will learn:

  • What is a 529 Fund?
  • How do you set one up?
  • Who can set one up?
  • Is a 529 plan right for everybody?
  • If not, what alternatives are out there?

The retirement plan for a self-employed individual is often different from those who work for someone else. If it is a small business, it usually doesn’t have a pension plan or a 401(k), although the owner can set up an IRA and an SEP to put money aside.

What the plan does include that makes it different is what that person does with their business upon retirement. Do they shut it down, pass it on to their children, or sell it to their partners or a third party? So in this episode of the podcast I talk to Australian podiatrist and entrepreneur Dr. Tyson Franklin for his tips on how to prepare your business for eventual sale, come up with a price, and find a buyer.

In this episode you will learn:

  • How to prepare your business for sale
  • How to set your price
  • How to find a buyer
