How Inflation Is Impacting Your Life and Investments

jeudi 15 octobre 2026 • Durée 16:09

Grocery bills are roughly 25 percent higher than they were a few years ago, and they are not coming back down. That is not a prediction. It is how inflation works. The spike you felt in 2022 and 2023 set a new floor. From here, prices continue rising, just hopefully more slowly.

In this episode of Financial Commute, Chief Investment Officer Meghan Pinchuk and Wealth Advisor Chris Galeski answer the questions everyone is asking: why prices are not going back down, what a K-shaped economy means for households at different income levels, and what investors can do to make sure their assets keep pace with rising costs.

*Questions this episode answers*

• Inflation is a growth rate, not a price level. Prices do not go back down when inflation moderates.

• Grocery prices are about 25 percent higher today than they were before the recent inflationary period.

• The K-shaped economy means inflation hits differently depending on whether you own assets.

• Roughly 40 percent of inflation is tied to housing costs.

• Owning real assets is the most reliable long-term hedge against inflation.

When Is Real Estate No Longer a Good Investment?

jeudi 8 octobre 2026 • Durée 18:55

For most of the past four decades, buying real estate in California was as close to a guaranteed win as investing gets. Prices rose. Interest rates fell. Demographics supported demand. People refinanced, pulled cash out, bought more, and built substantial wealth. That environment no longer exists.

In this episode of Financial Commute, CEO Jeff Sarti and Wealth Advisor Kevin Rex break down what drove real estate returns for 40 years, why those tailwinds have largely reversed, and what it takes to find genuine value in real estate today when the old playbook of closing your eyes and picking a property no longer works.

Questions this episode answers
- Is real estate still a good investment?
- What is a cap rate and why does it matter?
- Why did real estate appreciate so much from 1980 to 2020?
- Is it worth buying rental property in California right now?
- What is the difference between a public REIT and a private real estate fund?
- What are the real downsides of owning a rental property?

Lifestyle Creep vs. Lifestyle Design: How to Be Intentional With Your Spending

mercredi 30 septembre 2026 • Durée 24:19

Lifestyle creep is not a dramatic financial event. It is a food delivery subscription you barely use, a rent upgrade that felt reasonable at the time, a closet full of things you barely remember buying. It happens when income rises, and spending rises automatically to meet it, and sometimes exceed it, without anyone consciously choosing that outcome.

In this episode of Financial Commute, Priscilla Brehm and Kristin Dillon, a baby boomer and an elder millennial who have each spent decades watching this pattern play out from both sides, talk about what lifestyle creep looks like today, why the antidote is not deprivation but design, and the practical habits that help you live the life you want while building wealth.

*Questions This Episode Answers*

- What is lifestyle creep?
- What is the difference between lifestyle creep and lifestyle design?
- How do I stop lifestyle creep?
- Why is social media making lifestyle creep worse?
- How does a financial advisor help with lifestyle creep?
- What is the cart strategy for avoiding impulse spending?

What Alternative Investments Are (And Why They're Simpler Than You Think)

mercredi 23 septembre 2026 • Durée 21:25

Seven years ago, roughly $7 trillion was invested in alternative assets globally. Today that number is $18 trillion. By 2030, Fidelity projects it will exceed $30 trillion. The average institutional investor already allocates 25 percent of their capital to alternatives. The average retail investor allocates about 5 percent. That gap is not an accident.

In this episode of Financial Commute, Chris Galeski sits down with Jeff Sarti to break down what alternative investments actually are, why the industry's standard answer does not go far enough, and what the next 40 years of investing may look like for people who are still relying solely on stocks and bonds to get them there.

*Questions This Episode Answers*

- What are alternative investments?
- Why are alternative investments growing so fast?
- Do alternative investments actually reduce risk?
- Why are alternatives considered complex or risky?
- What is wrong with just owning stocks and bonds?
- What is a healthcare royalty investment?

Beyond the Midterms: What Investors Should Be Watching

jeudi 17 septembre 2026 • Durée 18:05

Every election cycle, clients ask the same question: should I be doing something different with my portfolio right now? The short answer, according to the data, is probably not.

But the longer answer is more interesting. In this episode of Financial Commute, Chief Investment Officer Meghan Pinchuk and Chris Galeski walk through what historical market data actually shows about midterm election years, why the bigger risk to the current market has less to do with which party wins and more to do with what both parties agree on, and how to think about sizing your stock exposure when markets are expensive, uncertainty is high, and the outcome of any given election is genuinely unknowable.

Questions This Episode Answers

- Do midterm elections affect the stock market?

- What would slow down AI spending and why does that matter for the stock market?

- Why is inflation described as a hidden tax?

- How should I invest before an election?

- What does the current price-to-earnings ratio tell us about future stock returns?

How to Take Money Out of Retirement Accounts Without a Big Tax Hit

mercredi 9 septembre 2026 • Durée 14:28

You saved into your 401 (k) for decades, reduced your taxes every year you could, and watched the balance grow. But the IRS doesn’t retire when you do.

Every dollar you pull from that account in retirement is ordinary income, and if it is your only account, you could end up in the same tax bracket you were in when you were working, or higher.

In this episode of Financial Commute, Wealth Advisors Ian Rennick and Mike Rudow break down the four types of retirement accounts, why the conventional withdrawal order most people follow might be a short-sighted strategy, and what it looks like to build a customized and flexible tax-smart retirement plan before you need it.

*Questions This Episode Answers*

How do I withdraw from retirement accounts without a big tax hit?
What is the right order to withdraw from retirement accounts?
What is a Roth conversion and when does it make sense?
What is the early retirement tax window?
Should I put all my retirement savings into my 401k?
How does having only a 401k affect taxes in retirement?

Build for Resilience, Not Prediction: The Healthy Skeptic Investment Approach

mercredi 2 septembre 2026 • Durée 23:46

Stocks are at all-time highs. Consumer sentiment just hit its lowest point since the Vietnam War. AI is going to transform everything. AI is going to eliminate your job. Gold is the only safe asset. Sell your gold immediately. If any of this sounds familiar, you have been inside the noise.

In this episode of Financial Commute, Chris Galeski sits down with CEO Jeff Sarti to walk through the twelfth edition of the Healthy Skeptic investment letter, "When Headlines Get Loud, Principles Matter More," and the core principles behind the way Morton Wealth builds portfolios when headlines are pulling investors in every direction at once. The principles are not new. The environment that makes them necessary has rarely felt more acute.

Questions This Episode Answers

What is the Healthy Skeptic investment philosophy?
Why is consumer sentiment so low when stocks are at all-time highs?
Is AI a boom or a bust for investors?
What is wrong with traditional stock and bond diversification?
How does Morton Wealth build portfolios differently?
Why does Morton Wealth's size matter for investors?

jeudi 27 août 2026 • Durée 13:38

On October 29th, we are hosting our fifth annual Investor Symposium, and this year’s theme is “Designed for Life.”

The Most Common Money "What-Ifs" Answered: Job Loss, Inflation, & Running Out of Cash

jeudi 13 août 2026 • Durée 19:10

What if I lose my job? What if inflation stays high? What if I run out of money? What if I get a raise and do not know what to do with it? These are the questions people type into Google and AI tools at two in the morning, and they rarely get a straight answer.

In this episode of Financial Commute, Chris Galeski and Mike Rudow pull the most common financial what-if questions and work through each one with the kind of honest, practical perspective that does not show up in a search result. The scenarios are different. The underlying framework that answers all of them turns out to be the same.

Questions This Episode Answers

What should I do if I lose my job?
What if inflation stays high for a long time?
What if I run out of money in retirement?
What should I do with a raise or a larger bonus?
What if I have a large unexpected expense like a medical bill or helping a parent?
How do the three buckets work in financial planning?
