  • Here's When A Will Is Sufficient And Trust Isn't Necessary (Part 1)
    Estate planning doesn’t have to be complicated. This episode breaks down the essentials: wills, trusts, and what actually matters, so you can protect your assets and give your loved ones peace of mind.Wills determine where assets go after death. Trusts do that and more. They can manage assets during your lifetime and help avoid probate, offering more flexibility and control.In states like Texas, Arizona, and Florida, probate tends to be fast and affordable, so a will might be enough. But in places like California, New York, and Oregon, a trust can help you avoid long, expensive, and public court proceedings. Some situations call for extra planning regardless of location, such as blended families, special needs beneficiaries, or owning property in multiple states.This episode also explores the idea of a “dead box,” a digital folder that holds important documents, passwords, and instructions to make life easier for your family during a difficult time.Estate planning isn’t just about legal documents. It’s about creating clarity and making sure your family knows what to do when it matters most.Listen to Part 2: FAQs: Wills, Trusts, Power of Attorneys, and Other Estate Planning Tools -Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

  • Why I Love Retirement Planning At 29 Years Old
    What does soccer have to do with retirement? A lot more than you'd think. As a 5'5" former college soccer player turned financial advisor, I’ve learned it’s not about brute strength. It’s about smart decisions. That mindset guides the way I approach financial planning today.At 29, people ask why I care so much about retirement. The answer is simple: good planning gives you time. And time with the people you love is the most valuable thing there is. I've seen how a well-structured plan, from managing taxes to optimizing healthcare and using flexible accounts, can buy you years with aging parents, a spouse, or even just your own freedom.But there are traps, like being "qualified rich." That $2 million in your 401(k)? After taxes and penalties, it’s not what it seems. That's why I'm a big fan of what I call “superhero accounts” like brokerage accounts that let you retire on yourterms. And don’t get me started on the healthcare gap between early retirement and Medicare. It’s one of the biggest mindset hurdles we help people overcome.I got into this work after watching my own parents get burned by multiple advisors. Some were too fancy, some were too hands-off, and none truly planned holistically. That gap in the industry is what I aim to close.To me, the goal is recreational employment. Working because you want to, not because you have to.-Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

  • How to Know If You’re Ready to Retire (Hint: It’s Not Just About Money)
    The hardest part of retirement isn’t always financial, it’s psychological. For many, stepping away from work isn’t a light switch, but a dimmer that adjusts over time. This episode of Root Talks unpacks what makes the retirement decision so complex, especially for high-achieving professionals whose identity is tied to their careers.Through a real-life case study, the conversation explores how severance offers can become powerful “test drives” for retirement, offering space to reimagine life beyond work. Ari and James examine the impact of golden handcuffs— when financial incentives cloud what really matters: time, health, and meaningful connection.If retirement feels more like a mental block than a math problem, this episode offers a new lens. Learn how tools like Tim Ferriss’s fear-setting exercise can help unpack the real risk of not of leaving work, but of staying too long. -Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.
