Sometimes the smallest details make the biggest difference. This post reminds small business owners that retirement benefits aren’t just for big companies, and that something as straightforward as number of employees can determine whether a SEP-IRA or SIMPLE IRA is the better fit.

If you are interested in setting up either a SEP-IRA or SIMPLE IRA, contact us via the link in our bio or call/text us at 248-533-0015

Back-to-school season is bringing higher costs for many families.

A new analysis found that a typical basket of school items, including notebooks, lunch boxes, and index cards, is up nearly 8% compared with last year.

School lunches are also more expensive, with the cost of a typical packed lunch up 11%.

The analysis estimates families may spend roughly $4,000 per student on school supplies and lunches this year, including about $175 on school items and $3,800 on packed lunches.

Some items have seen especially sharp increases. Lunch boxes are up 27%, one-subject notebooks are up 23%, and index cards are up 22%.

Higher tariffs, imported school supplies, food prices, and energy costs are all contributing to the increase.

For families, back-to-school shopping is a reminder that seasonal expenses can add up quickly, especially when everyday costs are already stretching household budgets.

U.S. airlines spent more than $6 billion on jet fuel in May for the second month in a row.

According to government data, airlines spent $6.66 billion on fuel in May, up 84% from a year earlier.

The increase was driven mostly by higher fuel prices, not higher fuel use. U.S. carriers used slightly less fuel than they did a year ago, while the average price paid rose to $4.09 per gallon.

Fuel is typically one of the airline industry’s highest operating costs, which can make carriers especially sensitive to swings in energy prices.

In response to higher fuel costs, airlines have raised fares and fees in some cases and adjusted flight schedules.

For travelers and businesses, the broader takeaway is that energy prices can affect more than the cost of filling up a car. They can also influence airfare, travel budgets, company expenses, and inflation pressures.

What would you do with a windfall?

A business sale. An inheritance. A bonus that lands bigger than expected.

Most people assume they’d handle it well. But sudden money follows patterns. And the patterns aren’t always flattering.

Psychologists call it sudden wealth syndrome: the anxiety, decision paralysis, and relationship pressure that arrive alongside a large sum. It shows up whether the windfall was a complete surprise or something you spent years building toward.

The 5 most common mistakes we see:
⏳ Upgrading your lifestyle before a strategy exists

🤝 Giving to family under emotional pressure

📊 Attempting to make decisions without professional guidance

⚖️ Freezing and making no decisions at all

📋 Missing the critical deadlines in year one

All five can be managed, but only if you get ahead of the emotions before the decisions start piling up.

The most important thing you can do in the first 90 days? Maybe nothing.

Tell very few people. Then consider building a team of professionals who can offer insights and guidance.

There is rarely a cost to waiting. There is frequently a cost to moving too quickly.

Pullbacks and corrections. Are you familiar with these terms? They are a part of the investing cycle. When stock prices are trending lower, some investors can second-guess their risk tolerance. But periods of market volatility can be the worst times to consider portfolio decisions.
📈
Pullbacks:
A pullback represents the mildest form of a selloff in the markets. You might hear an investor or trader refer to a dip of 5-10% after a peak as a “pullback.”

Corrections:
The next degree in severity is a “correction.” If a market or markets retreat 10% to 20% after a peak, you’re in correction territory. At this point, you’re likely on guard for the next tier.
