      <title>Preserving Your Legacy: The Power of Family Storytelling - Part 1</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Family history, recorded in video, audio or written formats, can make an immeasurable impact in the lives of our loved ones. Taylor Smith interviews Jamie Younger, founder and CEO of Storykeep, to discuss her company's work in creating bespoke films and audio-based media to capture family history and values for high net worth families. Jamie shares her journey from studying folklore to founding Storykeep, and her structured discovery and co-creation process. </p><p>Jamie says, “a family’s story, is part of their estate.” Explore the power of storytelling in estate planning, family transitions, and making compelling legal documents. One of Jamie’s keys to success is to emphasize the importance of human connection and inclusivity in capturing family stories across generations. </p><p>Jamie gives an example of a Japanese American family who never spoke about the elder generation’s WWII internment camp experience–and it opened up the family conversations, providing value in countless ways.</p><p>As a quick reminder, the Expert Network Team provides free consultations. We would love the opportunity to be of service to you or someone you care about. Just scroll the liner notes to contact one of our experts or today’s guest.

      <title>Charitable Giving: A Gratitude State Of Mind</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The world needs more impactful, local charitable giving, says Nathan Merrill. Giving without an expectation of anything in return, this is the subject today. And this act provides more benefits than many people think. We discuss the physiological effects of service, and how this helps the mind and the body. Think about how to help people within your circle, including the people you work with. You may be able to help people in ways you had never imagined. Nate and Karl discuss three ways of giving, by showing up, by delivering the high-level skills that made you wealthy, and by just plain old writing a check or using other financial tools. And what about the single people, and/or people without children? Finally, some deep thoughts about the tax deductions and how they test a person's conviction about the charities...would we give without a tax benefit?</p><p>Resources mentioned in today's podcast:</p><ul><li>Foundation Source</li><li>More than Money 360</li><li>Die with Zero</li><li>Go Tax Free with a Charity White Paper</li></ul><p>As always, it is good to have an expert on your side.</p>

      <title>Charity With Purpose</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to the ENT!</p><p>Embrace a little more gratitude, give a little more to the causes you are passionate about, with Nathan Merrill and Karl Frank. A lot of charitable planning centers around tax planning--if I give this, then I will save that in taxes. But rather than thinking of it as a quid pro quo, Nathan encourages us to come back to a higher level. "Detached or disinterested generosity," and the other legal definitions of charitable giving, is a good way to begin. And to whom do I want to make a gift? For many business owners, their team-mates are among the most important people in their lives. The laws make it hard to give to an employee any gift over $25. Buying a table at a charitable event is another way to make a gift, that is important. But the "how" we give is not as challenging as the why we give. Asheville, NC, is a part of the world that is struggling today, perhaps this is a great way to organize your thoughts. It is important to line up your impact with your tax deduction, and not plan around the tax benefits. You may want some recognition today even if the charity does not receive money until a later date. Included in our discussion are some of these strategies, including trusts, qualified distributions, etc. Learn about where to go to get an idea of charities to donate to.

      <title>Trumps&apos; Economy: What Does It Mean For You?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Buying a home is harder than ever before. Young people are waiting longer and longer. What does that mean for our economy? Wage growth is being outpaced by housing costs, so where are we really? Oh by the way, cars and healthcare and other costs are expensive too! The data is skewed by Covid, so what is really going on? Are the next generation potential homebuyers really all that worse off or are they culturally different, with different values? And what is going on with DOGE—does government spending cuts hurt the economy? What are the states doing? What are the numbers, not the prognosticators, saying? Prognosticators talk about inflation so often, it may lead you to ask, “Is anything disinflationary (and is that good)?” Where are we at with the unemployment number and is that a reliable number? And learn why jobless claims, produced weekly, are a reliable indicator, as volatile as they are. And the ultimate question, maybe, is America OK? Expert Network team provides free consultations. Just mention that you

      <itunes:summary>Big changes going through with the Trump administration. How will our investments do in this environment? We don’t know the rules of the game. Modestly slowing economy, unclear regulations, threats of tariffs and war. Consumers are the economy, and how are they doing? 3 million out of 170 million work for the Federal government. What about Federal layoffs? Inflation? Look at the Fed’s Teal book and other numbers (that are not boring). See what the numbers show about what this might mean for you. How to look at the years with the administration ahead of us. What is the outlook for equities? Is this the time to be a little more active or is it “time in the market that matters?”   Hint: spoiler alert: the tariffs may not last and their effects may not be long-term.</itunes:summary>

What about Federal layoffs? Inflation? Look at the Fed’s Teal book and other numbers (that are not boring). See what the numbers show about what this might mean for you. How to look at the years with the administration ahead of us. What is the outlook for equities? Is this the time to be a little more active or is it “time in the market that matters?”   Hint: spoiler alert: the tariffs may not last and their effects may not be long-term.</itunes:subtitle>

      <description><![CDATA[<p><i>Is business going to go well in 2025?</i> A question from a listener gets the guys talking about reasons for optimism in 2025.

      <title>100 Episodes of Expert Team Advice in Retrospective</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In the 100th episode of the Expert Network Team Podcast, Nathan Merrill, Jeff Krommendyk and Karl Frank reflect upon some of their favorite podcasts, lessons learned from each other, and deliver the messages they feel business owners and successful people need to hear.</p><p>Some technical episodes include episode 1: estate planning essentials, episodes 58 and 59: When to take an estate into probate and guardianship and conservatorship. </p><p>Books of interest, episode 33, and least favorite words, episode 11, are favorites. </p><p>Company culture, episodes 29 and 32, particularly managing the next generation of workers, episode 60.</p><p>We love the 80’s! Episodes beginning with the 80’s include good inheritor of wealth, wealth is a disruptor, and many discussions about more than just maximizing money and reducing taxes. Overall discussions of meaning, purpose, and transferring to our loved ones more than just money are the best podcasts, in the our opinion. </p><p>And so that is a trend we will continue. Constancy, says Nate, requires change. One incredible differentiating benefit we each bring to each of our clients is the Expert Network Team and additional resources of each other’s teams, says Jeff.

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the 100th episode of the Expert Network Team Podcast, Nathan Merrill, Jeff Krommendyk and Karl Frank reflect upon some of their favorite podcasts, lessons learned from each other, and deliver the messages they feel business owners and successful people need to hear.</p><p>Some technical episodes include episode 1: estate planning essentials, episodes 58 and 59: When to take an estate into probate and guardianship and conservatorship. </p><p>Books of interest, episode 33, and least favorite words, episode 11, are favorites. </p><p>Company culture, episodes 29 and 32, particularly managing the next generation of workers, episode 60.</p><p>We love the 80’s! Episodes beginning with the 80’s include good inheritor of wealth, wealth is a disruptor, and many discussions about more than just maximizing money and reducing taxes. Overall discussions of meaning, purpose, and transferring to our loved ones more than just money are the best podcasts, in the our opinion. </p><p>And so that is a trend we will continue. Constancy, says Nate, requires change. One incredible differentiating benefit we each bring to each of our clients is the Expert Network Team and additional resources of each other’s teams, says Jeff. And Karl says, we want to make a significant impact in the lives of people who are making an impact, and want to make an even bigger impact in the future.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[Almost All In on Political Civility and Why Delaware May be Dangerous
Recorded June 19, 2024

Podcast All In Episode 183 is the subject our experts engage in today. All In is a popular podcast run by four successful tech executives in Silicon Valley; some of them are politically progressive, some of them conservatives. The Silicon Valley guys, in a traditionally liberal progressive political haven, hosted Donald Trump into their home and had some insights. So that led two of our experts, Nate and Jeff, to engage in a civil discourse with our guest, Chris Schmidt, about politics. They challenge all our listeners to get to know the candidates beyond the posturing and the messages that pummel us with negativity.

Also on the docket, the lawyers discussed the importance of jurisdiction for business owners. Tesla is a prime example of what can go wrong. Learn some of the drama going on and what you may want to discuss with your own expert team. Finally, the economy is looking pretty good…or is it? The experts deliver their opinions and what they are hearing from their clients.

      <title>Feds Make Noncompetes Illegal</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Importantly, since the date of recording, a Supreme Court ruling may invalidate the entire "non-compete" argument entirely as executive branch over-reach. Make sure to talk with your attorney or one of our experts for up-to-date information!

Are noncompete agreements now Federally illegal? 

A recent law has been issued by the Federal Government that makes it impossible for employers to limit their former employees from competing with them. John Sauer, expert attorney at Goodspeed and Merrill, gives it about a 10 percent chance of not being overturned in court. But employers need to know what is happening now, before the court cases go through. And in today’s world, who knows what is really going to happen?

      <title>Almost All In</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Today the experts talk back to the guys in the All In podcast. All In is one of the most popular podcasts in America The four hosts are each successful big, technology business founders, funders, and executives in California. Our perspective is from the POV of small business owners in Colorado, and we think a lot more people think more like we do. Decide for yourself. 

In the All In Podcast number 175, they discuss topics that affect small business owners. First on the docket, a tax increase which is being ignored by many people but could hurt a lot of companies, particularly small technology companies. Next, we give our take on the firings of 28 Google employees who are protesting their employer’s involvement with Israel. Are they just entitled and naive? Nate takes us on a tour of Mideast history and we take issue with one of the points made in All In, which is that maybe Gaza is to Israel as the 1960’s and 70’s Vietnam War was to the USA. We respectfully disagree.

We open up and share dreams about what we want to do now. As adults, we do safe things. Having put aside, delayed, dropped or otherwise ignored our dreams for decades while we raised children and built businesses gave us an opportunity today. Now we have a little more time, talent and financial assets to achieve even more than what we used to dream about. But in some ways, we are afraid. Why? What next? What next!

      <title>Episode 86: Practical Advice on Creating a 5 Generation Family Legacy Part 2</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode Nathan Merrill and Jeff Krommendyk interview Monroe "Roey" Diefendorf, who is a member of a 5 generational family legacy business.  Roey discusses many of the challenges which multi-generational families (or those desiring to transmit family business and wealth among multiple generations) face.  He talks about the challenges his family had to overcome to make it to 5 generations, and observations he made of the counsel that affluent families are receiving which is not necessarily in harmony with their concerns and goals, specifically "how to prepare the family for the money".  From this he pioneered a "3D" portfolio management approach to advising clients, as well as being instrumental in developing the "Fam Tec" foundation for More Than Money 360, which is his admitted final career but utmost passion.  Part 2 of a 2 part series with Roey.  </p>

      <title>Episode 84 - A Family Reunion Can Help Prepare the Heirs</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>A Family Reunion Can Help Prepare Your Heirs</p><p><a href="https://www.goodspeedmerrill.com/">Nathan Merrill</a> and <a href="https://www.assetsandincome.com/">Karl Frank, CFP</a> talk about a fun way to help prepare the heirs–the family reunion! Here are a handful of fun and practical ideas to turn an event that has been the butt of many jokes, and funny movies, and turn it into something that could be impactful. Plus, it could prepare the heirs by giving them the stories and sharing the legacy of your family.</p><ul><li>First, ask why?

Legacy is often discussed but rarely acted upon. Shawn shares some of the history of legacy conversations:</p><ul><li>How Shawn got into the business, and created the technology and processes.</li><li>What the process looks like for new clients. This includes 30 minutes of homework for each and every family member, each and every month, for the first six months.</li><li>The research on families who have successfully transferred the financial and non financial assets over generations.</li></ul><p>Shawn shares practical advice and offers a way to facilitate communications about the topics that are most important to many people. What does this money mean? What stories do you want to share? What are the values? </p><p>By creating a shared values list, Shawn’s team helps families create a family values mission statement. And make sure to listen to the end of the podcast when we discuss how Shawn can help disinterested, intimidated (bored?) new generations get interested, involved and feel like they are making a difference. He also offers advice about how to get an older patriarch who wants to maintain control involved, and willing to be vulnerable.</p><p>Learn more about Shawn and his company, More than Money 360, at his website,  <a href="http://www.morethanmoney360.com">www.morethanmoney360.com</a> , or email him at <a href="mailto:shawn@mtm360.com">shawn@mtm360.com</a>. Make sure to schedule a free discovery meeting, here: <a href="https://www.assetsandincome.com/our-process-our-promise/">https://www.assetsandincome.com/our-process-our-promise/</a></p><p> </p>

      <title>Episode 79: Facilitating Important Family Conversations (Part 1)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.assetsandincome.com/">Karl Frank, CFP</a>, <a href="https://www.securityfirstia.com/staff/name/jeff-krommendyk/">Jeff Krommendyk</a> and <a href="https://www.goodspeedmerrill.com/">Nathan Merrill</a> interview Shawn Barberis, JD, who is an expert on facilitating important family conversations about legacy. As Shawn says, legacy is often discussed but rarely acted upon. Shawn shares:</p><ul><li>How legacy is not quantitative, it is not measured in dollars. A legacy is qualitative. Shawn shares what he means by this and how he helps people find meaning.</li><li>Why everyone, even the young people in a family, deserve a seat at the table during a family conversation about legacy.</li><li>Everything goes wrong when the family goes wrong, the money, the businesses, health and wealth. All of it depends upon transparent conversations.</li></ul><p>Shawn and his team have developed processes and technology to make conversations productive and families feel confident and safe.

As Shawn says, legacy is often discussed but rarely acted upon. Shawn shares:</p><ul><li>How legacy is not quantitative, it is not measured in dollars. A legacy is qualitative. Shawn shares what he means by this and how he helps people find meaning.</li><li>Why everyone, even the young people in a family, deserve a seat at the table during a family conversation about legacy.</li><li>Everything goes wrong when the family goes wrong, the money, the businesses, health and wealth. All of it depends upon transparent conversations.</li></ul><p>Shawn and his team have developed processes and technology to make conversations productive and families feel confident and safe. He says there are three stages to the financial legacy, first you have to make it. Then you have to prepare the money for the family. These are where many people stop–this is the traditional estate plan for a financially successful family. But a wealthy family, says Shawn, takes the next step: prepare the family for the money.</p><p>Learn more about Shawn and his company, More than Money 360, at his website, <a href="http://www.morethanmoney360.com">www.morethanmoney360.com</a>  or email him at </p><p><a href="mailto:shawn@mtm360.com">shawn@mtm360.com</a> .

      <itunes:duration>00:30:00</itunes:duration>
      <itunes:summary>Special guest John Sauer joins Karl Frank, CFP and Nathan Merrill and teaches us about the new gotcha laws that Colorado employers need to obey if they want to use a non-compete agreement for hiring employees. In this episode, John teaches us how employers can enforce a non-compete agreement under Colorado’s new laws.
●	What is the usual manner in which a non-compete agreement is enforced.
●	How does a temporary restraining order expedite the process?
●	How long does this take and how much does it cost?
●	What is the usual response from a former employee, and what can the employer do maximize the chance of success? 
●	Employers may face civil and criminal charges for attempting to enforce invalid non-compete agreements!
John warns, “Before you throw the bomb, you better make sure you are bulletproof.” 
As an employment attorney, John Sauer deals with 10 or or more non-compete agreements on any given week. This podcast gives employers a quick way to plan for the unexpected and avoid confusion in the event that a non-compete agreement needs to be enforced.

      <itunes:author>Nathan Merrill attorney, Karl Frank CFP, John Sauer</itunes:author>
      <itunes:duration>00:31:28</itunes:duration>
      <itunes:summary>Special guest John Sauer joins Karl Frank, CFP and Nathan Merrill and teaches us about the new gotcha laws that Colorado employers need to obey if they want to use a non-compete agreement for hiring employees.
●	What is a non-compete and how do the new laws help employees?
●	What are an employer’s new requirements?
●	What happens if an employer misses the notice requirement? Or does not provide a non-compete document that is separate from an employment contract?
●	Learn about the civil and criminal risks for employers for attempting to enforce invalid non-compete agreements.
And what does all this have to do with Jimmy John’s sandwiches anyway? In an informative podcast, attorney John Sauer boils down the complications and exposes the trap doors that employers face when protecting their businesses from harm.

      <title>Episode 55: Inflation in 2022 Part 2 of 2</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this 20 minute episode, we discuss what we can do about inflation:</p><p>Reasons we have inflation. Are they just monetary? Are they policy related?</p><p>How the Federal Reserve can help and likely has not helped, but hindered, inflation over the previous decade.</p><p>We take a special look at mortgage rates and make a prediction—it may not be like the past. In fact, in the past, after a mortgage increase, the next few quarters have seen a decline in mortgage rates. Is this time different?</p><p>And finally, learn three things we can do in an inflationary world.</p><p>This is a time to recalibrate our lives.

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this 20 minute episode, we discuss what we can do about inflation:</p><p>Reasons we have inflation. Are they just monetary? Are they policy related?</p><p>How the Federal Reserve can help and likely has not helped, but hindered, inflation over the previous decade.</p><p>We take a special look at mortgage rates and make a prediction—it may not be like the past. In fact, in the past, after a mortgage increase, the next few quarters have seen a decline in mortgage rates. Is this time different?</p><p>And finally, learn three things we can do in an inflationary world.</p><p>This is a time to recalibrate our lives.

      <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>We don’t want imagine a retirement like our parents’ retirement. Their employer said something like, “give us the best 40 years of your life and we will give you what is left over.” Is there something better?</li><li>We don’t “remove ourselves from service” like we “retire” an old piece of equipment. No, instead we want to reboot!</li><li>Go back to the first day you started your business. Remember the challenges you overcame, and likely you think of these things fondly. Similarly, starting retirement <i>today</i> is like that–a new journey with challenges you can enjoy!</li><li>Review the stages of business. Today’s conversation is about the final two stages, 6 and 7. In Stage 6, you are the visionary and provide guidance. For stage 7, you are passing on the legacy, perhaps while you are still there!</li><li>There is such a thing as an ideal work lifestyle that may be more fulfilling than a flat-out quit everything and then figure-it-out way to go!</li></ul><p>We discuss some of the key attributes that a successful “figurehead” leader has and wants to cultivate.

Jeff has clients among the more than 1,000 homeowners who were devastated by the fires near Boulder at the end of 2021. Learn:</p><ul><li>What happens to the homeowners whose home were underinsured? Or who had no insurance at all?</li><li>Who pays the mortgage and the car payment for a burnt-down home? </li><li>How does the government help? </li><li>What will insurance companies pay for?</li><li>What about a total loss–what happens to the more than 900 homes burned to the ground?</li><li>What are the three or four things we can all do today to get ourselves prepared just in case.</li></ul><p>The Marshall fires hit a suburban area similar to where many Americans live. In Colorado, we hear about forest fires but not grass fires–and certainly not a fire of this size.

      <title>Episode 43: Two Ways to Get Free Money from Colorado to Pay for College and Other Hacks</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Special guest Cameron Morgan joins Karl Frank, CFP, Jeff Krommendyk, Mike Miller, CPA and Nathan Merrill and gain a couple of great ideas to save money, or just plain old get free money, to pay for college.

Colorado families lose the unlimited State income tax deduction for contributions to 529 plans in 2021. However, there are two little-known secret ways to get free money from the State of Colorado to help pay for college. One helps parents and grandparents with younger age kids or grandkids, and the other helps pay for kids already in college.

First, learn about the $1,000 matching grant from Colorado for kids 8 and under. Learn how this can become up to $5,000!

Second, learn about a $2,000 annual scholarship for current college students. This can be repeated up to four times, for a total $8,000 possible gift!

      <title>Episode 43: Real Estate for Retirement Income</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Real Estate for Retirement Income Liner Notes

Join Karl Frank, CFP as he interviews Mike Miller, CPA and Nathan Merrill to talk about a very popular retirement income strategy: real estate. Today we are  talking about the pros and cons and the ins and out of passive rental income. Karl is a rookie at owning commercial real estate and asks the experts, both of whom are income-producing real estate owners and have decades of experience counseling real estate investors. Here are just a few of the questions you can get answers to:
Should I own it or try to fix and flip the real estate? Pros and cons for different real estate strategies, especially during retirement.
How do I transfer it to another real estate--the 1031? And some advanced questions and answers about these tax rules.
What is the deal with long-term capital gains? What is “boot” and why do I care?
Pros and cons of hiring a property management company compared to doing it myself.
And what is this talk about trusts--and other complicated ways to own real estate?

Real estate has particular risks and offers potential rewards for the investor. Learn more about Real Estate Investment Planning. Expert Network team provides free consultations. Just mention that you
listened to the podcast.

      <title>Episode 36: How You May be Affected by the Tax Proposal called “American Families”</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Join all four members of the Expert Team: Nathan Merrill, Karl Frank CFP, Mike Miller CPA and Jeff Krommendyk. We discuss the recent tax plan and how this may affect regular people, not just the billionaires.</p><p>Importantly, the proposal has not yet passed Congress so everything is subject to change. </p><p>We discuss a few of the tax increases and losses for individuals. Some of the lost tax benefits include the after-tax Roth contribution, and subsequent Roth conversion. This way to go tax free is made illegal for all people regardless of income by the American Families tax proposal. Most of the rest of the changes affect individuals who make $400,000 or more or families who make $450,000 or more. Income taxes, long-term capital gains both go up. If you make more than $5 million in a year—even if it is from a one-time transaction like selling your family business, farm or the estate—you could face over a 50% tax burden. We talk about the government’s plan to monitor all transactions over a certain dollar amount. We talk about how small business owners face paying the biggest portion of the taxes. The possible loss of the 199A deduction and a 3.8% surtax for small-business owners are two notable examples. We talk about what a person can do at the end of the year to deal with these possible tax increases!</p>

      <title>Episode 30: Qualified Charitable Distributions</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this brief but informative podcast, Karl Frank, CFP, Mike Miller, CPA and Nathan Merrill, JD, discuss the QCD: Qualified Charitable Distribution. Learn the benefits and drawbacks of pulling money out of a retirement account and giving it to a charity. The Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) is a great way for someone to give money directly to a charity and avoid taxes. For people who file a Simple 1040 tax return, the QCD is often a great decision. It saves having to file a more complicated tax return and then itemize your tax deductions. Learn why wealthy people also enjoy the QCD, including some benefits to their beneficiaries. Learn about the annual gifting limit, the types of charities, and more. Get some good ideas about how you might implement this in your financial plan. Expert Network team provides free consultations. Just mention that you

      <title>Episode 28: Biden&apos;s Big Estate Tax Plan- How Do You Anticipate and Plan for These Changes?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Karl Frank CFP® and Nathan Merrill discuss Biden’s proposed estate tax plan changes. We describe what the President proposed and what this means for Americans. The increase may affect more people than ever before. The tax rate may be higher. And the loss of a benefit called the step-up in basis could be very expensive for families who have real estate, a family business, farm, or other assets. Nathan will talk in some detail about what we can do before the laws take effect. Learn about the risks that the laws will not change. And learn about ways to reduce the risks in these uncertain times. Ideas include sales, gifts, trusts, companies, foundations and more. Plus, you will learn about how a dollar may be worth a dollar when it goes into a trust. These legal strategies have been around for decades and will become more popular if tax rates go up.

Learn about how even $50 in a kid’s college fund might be able to increase their chances of going to college.
Learn how you can get your money out of a 529 plan if your student gets a scholarship or other financial aid.

      <title>Episode 22: Captive Insurance Part 2</title>
      <description><![CDATA[The experts continue their conversation with Rich Ericson and Nathan Merrill about captive insurance companies. Learn alongside Jeff Krommendyk and Mike Miller about the big benefits, and key risks, of setting up a privately-owned insurance company. Continuing the conversation, Rich dives into more details about the three matrices of captive insurance: revenues, employees and current commercial insurance premiums. He discusses the big tax advantages and some of the legal details business owners want to know as they consider these advanced planning strategies. Learn about self-funded health insurance plans, and some of the benefits including increased transparency and lower costs. Learn also about some risks, and how to mitigate them (hint: a stop-loss policy). Integrating a captive policy with health insurance can reduce the risks and reduce the taxes and benefit the business owner. And how do you wind-down, exit, the captive insurance company? And what are the tax consequences? Learn how to gain more control and flexibilty over when and how much to pay in taxes.

      <description><![CDATA[Jeff Krommendyk, Mike Miller, the experts, interview Rich Ericson from ALINK and Nathan Merrill with Goodspeed and Merrill to learn how to set up an insurance policy that covers risks not covered by traditional business insurance. Plus, the tax advantages can be huge. The perils of a pandemic can be covered by captive insurance, and that could have provided companies a lot of protection. Learn how a business owner can set up a captive insurance company of their own. Learn about the benefits. Learn about the tax benefits. Learn about the two fundamentals required by any insurance company. Learn about pooling risk with a group captive, series captives, single parent captives. Learn about sections of the IRS code, including 831a and 831b. Learn about low-frequency, high-severity risks we all face, and how we can form a company specifically to cover these risks. And, if the risks never occur, how the owners of the captive company can still get access to the premiums paid to cover that risks. Some of the risks include coverage for a pandemic, loss of business income, supply chain interruption, bed bug coverage, earthquake coverage, loss of a license, key account loss, accounts receivable losses, and cyber security threats. Most companies do not want to pay premiums for insurance. But if the business owner was a recipient of these premiums, by owning a captive insurance company, then what was informally insured before might become a profitable endeavor instead. Learn about how the IRS tax code is an incentive system, and how it gives tacit approval to an insurance company, like this. Many business owners want to know the maximum tax-deductible contributions to captive insurance companies. Learn about the companies that benefit most from this planning idea: how much in revenues, how many employees, in what industries, and more. Expert Network team provides free consultations.

      <title>Episode 20: Pivoting in the Pandemic-Creating New Opportunities with Mike Miller, CPA</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Mike Miller, CPA, explains how today's economic shutdown can actually help a business owner find new and profitable opportunities. In his own company, Mike is pivoting towards providing business owner advice. Many companies were overwhelmed with the work required to maintain their businesses during the economic shutdown. Some business owners lacked financial statement literacy. Many owners want a financial dashboard, so they can pull the right levers and get the biggest return on their invested dollars. Mike's team provides consultation that explains things in an easy-to-understand way. His goal is to help owners make business financial planning enjoyable and productive as opposed to tax preparation, after the fact, when it is too late. Learn about the new ways he is doing business, including managing people remotely, and new service packages Mike provides--saving taxes across state lines. Learn how Mike hired a coach, and some advice for hiring a business coach. 
As the economy recovers, some businesses will come out roaring!

      <title>Episode 14: Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<h1>Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 and What it Means for You</h1><p>Karl and Nathan Merrill, attorney at Goodspeed and Merrill, discuss the most recent HUGE tax reform passed through Congress at the end of 2020. Many people know about the $600 sent to families. But we discuss other details that may not have made the news. Some of the highlights include:</p><ul><li>Business expenses paid with PPP loan are deductible : For business owners who used their PPP loan properly, the loan is not taxable. This had been in doubt until this act passed. There are also four new types of expenses that qualify.</li><li>PPP loan part 2 : Business owners who have a downturn in revenues may be able to apply for a second loan.</li><li>PPS loan simplified forgiveness : If the loan was less than $150,000, a one-page simplified forgiveness document is all that is necessary now.</li><li>$600 charitable deduction instead of $300. Married people who do not itemize their tax returns may claim $300 each for their charitable deductions. In 2020, it was only $300.</li><li>Medical expenses above 7.5% of adjusted gross income (AGI) are now deductible, for all future years.</li><li>Lifetime learning credit instead of a deduction : Going forward, tuition and related expenses will no longer be tax-deductible. However, the lifetime learning credit helps people with higher incomes, up to $180,000 income for a married couple.</li></ul><p>Securities provided through Geneos Wealth Management, member FINRA, SIPC.
