The Retire to Abundance Newsletter

Stay Informed

As the presidential election approaches, I understand that many of you have questions about its potential impact on your investment portfolios. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the media hype and political drama, but it’s important to stay grounded. We've done our homework and explored how elections can affect the markets. Dive into my blog below for insights and guidance to help you navigate this election season with confidence.

Will the Election Impact my Portfolio?


It's tempting to want to make drastic changes in a portfolio prior to or in response to big world changes. Indeed, volatility is ever present in the market and our sensitivity to it tends to be heightened in times like this. We are hard-wired to worry when change is imminent, and finances are often at the top of that list. So where does that leave us when it comes to our portfolio over the next few months?

Here's what I suggest:
→ Stick to the plan
→ Remember timing the market is a fool's errand
→ Diversify, diversify, diversify
→ Tune out all of the noise (media, I'm looking at you!)
→ Focus on what you can control

June The Retire to Abundance Newsletter Harvest Time: The combines are just starting to roll here in south central Kansas, and every year it marks one of my favorite seasons. Every year, we try to get our kids out to ride along — partly for the fun, but mostly so they can see the work that goes into it...and as a bonus to learn where their food comes from. Watching harvest through my dad’s eyes, a fifth-generation Kansas farmer, reminds me that this season is about more than crops. It’s the...

May The Retire to Abundance Newsletter The Numbers of Life: School’s almost out, and like many families, we’re getting ready to shift into summer mode. Around our house, that means a full calendar of ball games, road trips, and time with extended family. It’s a busy season—but also one filled with the things that matter most. In a lot of ways, it’s not all that different from retirement. When the structure of the workweek fades, it opens the door to more travel, more time with family, and...

April The Retire to Abundance Newsletter Tariff-ic Opportunities in the Market: Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve likely heard about the recent turbulence in the stock market.

We’re currently in one of those inevitable downturns, and it’s no surprise that investors of all stripes are feeling a bit skittish. While it’s never fun to watch account values dip, this pullback doesn’t...
