    6.   If the market flatlines like it did from 2000-2009 and returns 0%, what’s the best way to prepare for this scenario?

    7.   How much money should I put down on a new home?

    8.   I got very sick, but was able to rollover the life insurance policy I had from my previous employer. This policy is suboptimal. Expensive and not the best product. Should I drop coverage or continue paying premiums?

    9.   Should I buy a boat in retirement?

    10. Should I borrow money from my 401k to invest in real estate?

    11. Any strategies you would recommend on how and when to deploy capital?”

    12. My husband and I got out of debt using Dave Ramsey methods. We have a high household income, but our only debt is a 15 year fixed at 2.7% with about 450k left on our mortgage. Should we pay it off in the next few years, per Dave's line of thinking?

  • Join Jonathan I. Shenkman, President and Chief Investment Officer of ParkBridge Wealth Management this week as he discusses a variety of timely investing and financial planning topics, including:


    1) Should You Buy Nvidia?

    2) This week’s quote is from John D. Rockefeller on the importance of giving.

    3) AI is the buzzword these days, but I’m generally concerned that it will replace humans. Do you believe that will happen?

    4) My insurance broker said a 401(k) is a scam and instead I should “be my own bank” and “invest in myself”. What does he mean by that, and does he have a point?

    5) How do I know when I have enough money?

    6) I have profits in my investment portfolio. I like to use part of these profits to fund other aspects of my life. My advisor told me this isn’t helpful, but I’m not using all the money, so what’s the big deal?

    7)  I’ve been handling my finances my entire career. I think I’ve done an adequate job. I’m on the fence if I should hire a financial advisor. Do you have any guidelines when someone should work with a financial advisor and when it doesn’t make sense?
