With 28 years of military service—including 7 years on active duty and 21 years in the Reserve as a First Sergeant and Inspector General Superintendent—I understand firsthand the discipline, resilience, and adaptability required to lead and succeed. As a fourth-generation military Veteran and a Gold Star Brother, service and legacy are not just values—they are my family’s tradition. I focus on wor

Why athlete finances are different

Athletes deal with:
• Short earning windows
• Income spikes, not salaries
• Public pressure + private decisions
• People asking for “opportunities”

That’s why I pursued the Sports & Entertainment Accredited Wealth Management Advisor (SE‑AWMA®️) designation.

Athlete money needs a different mindset.

Follow for athlete‑specific financial education.

As investors look beyond Middle East tensions, U.S. economic fundamentals are coming into sharper focus, driven by an accelerating AI investment and robust corporate profit growth, reinforcing the constructive case for equities. However, elevated inflation may keep rate cuts off the table and limit near-term progress in bond markets.

Senior Economist James McCann explains what this could mean for investors in our Weekly Market Wrap.

The IRS just updated some important healthcare savings numbers for 2027 👇
Here’s what changed:

You can now contribute up to $4,500 (individual) or $9,000 (family) to an HSA

Health plans need higher deductibles to qualify

New rules allow direct primary care memberships alongside HSAs

Employers can offer up to $2,250 in certain health reimbursement plans

Why this matters:
HSAs aren’t just for medical bills anymore...they’re one of the most tax-efficient ways to save long term.

Most people don’t take full advantage of them.

If you’re not sure how these changes apply to you, I’m always happy to help you figure it out 👍

Being your own boss is empowering ... until you realize everything depends on you.

No pension. No automatic plan. No safety net unless you build it.

Retirement doesn’t happen by accident for entrepreneurs.

It happens with clarity, consistency, and a plan that fits uneven income.

To my fellow business owners: You spend all day working in your business.

When was the last time you worked on your personal wealth?

I help entrepreneurs turn their business success into long-term family legacies.

Let’s talk about exit strategies and wealth preservation.

Military training teaches you to plan before the pressure hits.

Business ownership requires the same mindset — especially for retirement.

If your exit plan is “I’ll figure it out later,” that’s not a plan.

Freedom favors those who prepare early.

Real estate agents and athletes have something in common:

✅ Peak earning years
✅ Variable income
✅ A short window to build long‑term security

The question isn’t can you earn.

It’s are you converting income into independence?

NIL income ≠ free cash

If you earn NIL income and don’t plan for taxes, you’re already behind.

Common mistakes I see:
• No estimated taxes
• No separation between personal + business expenses
• Signing contracts without understanding net pay

Income earned wrong can be lost just as fast.

If NIL is coming your way, let’s talk before tax season.

Veterans don’t shy away from responsibility.

You planned missions. You adapted under pressure.

Yet many veteran business owners tell me retirement planning keeps getting pushed down the list.

Structure + strategy creates freedom ... in business and beyond.

If you’ve served with intention, retire with intention too.
