If your parents are getting older, you've probably been putting off everything in this episode.

In his own family, Mark learned that even a joke about who got more can sting. In episode 2, he's talking to adult children.

So when do you bring up money, anyway? And how do you do it without it sounding like you're asking for something?

Nobody is talking about how far $1M actually goes when you split it across six different family financial emergencies over a retirement. After more than four decades in the industry, Mark Donohue has seen all the ways retirees rationalize those big borrows ... and he's seen what happens when parents can't hold the line.

You may want to be there for your adult children, but will the money be there when you or your spouse need it? We talk about how to say "no" (with love) and more on our first episode of The Realized Life, a podcast about the human side of wealth management.

On our next episode, we're talking to adult children and beneficiaries about just how much they should be involved in their loved one's portfolio.

“It is with a heavy heart that I share the passing of my father, John C. “Cooper” Petagna Jr. He founded American Municipal Securities in 1980 with Mark Donohue, a firm that would later become Amuni Financial, Inc. Although he retired 10 years ago, his vision, integrity, and personal character remain woven into the fabric of our company today.”

We just wrapped up a live online conversation with CNBC’s Joe Terranova and Amuni Co-Founder Mark Donohue about what investors should be watching as we head into 2026.

Here’s a quick look at some of the themes that stood out:

🔎 Strength is showing up in more corners of the market.
It’s not just a handful of big companies carrying the load anymore. That’s a healthier setup for long-term investors.

🔎 Headlines don’t always explain what markets are doing.
Joe highlighted how interest rates, earnings trends, and global central bank decisions often drive markets more than day-to-day economic news.

🔎 Behavioral habits remain a real risk. Letting politics influence decisions, getting too heavy in tech, or taking on leverage without understanding the downside were three of the biggest traps discussed.

💡 The bottom line: Investing well is less about predicting the next move and more about staying disciplined and balanced through cycles.

⬇️ Full summary is linked in the comments.
