Jay is quoted in an article in CNBC Personal Finance February 17, 2022 "The cost of long-term care is rising amid staffing shortages.  How to cover these expenses" 

 


 

 

Jay is quoted in an article in CNBC Personal Finance January 6, 2022 "How rising interest rates may affect muni bond investors" 

 

Municipal bonds are subject to availability and change in price. They are subject to market and interest rate risk if sold prior to maturity. Bond values will decline as interest rates rise. Interest income may be subject to the alternative minimum tax. Municipal bonds are federally tax-free but other state and local taxes may apply.  If sold prior to maturity, capital gains tax could apply.

Jay is quoted in an article in CNBC Smart Tax Planning January 5, 2022 "Should you max out your IRA early in 2022?  Here's what advisors say" 

 

 

Dollar cost averaging involves continuous investment in securities regardless of fluctuation in price levels of such securities. An investor should consider their ability to continue purchasing through fluctuating price levels. Such a plan does not assure a profit and does not protect against loss in declining markets.
