While we’re out of the studio this week, we’ve collected a selection of great discussions from the past few months. First, we look beyond the alarming headlines surrounding Social Security to explain what the projected shortfall could mean for Gen X — and how investors can prepare for an uncertain outcome without assuming their benefits will disappear.

Then we answer a listener’s question many homeowners are asking: If you’ve locked in a 3% mortgage, should you stay put or move anyway? Sometimes the best financial decision isn’t the right decision for your lifestyle.

After the break, we break down one of the newest savings opportunities for families: Trump Accounts. Who qualifies for the new government-funded accounts? How do they work? And where might they fit alongside other long-term savings strategies for children and grandchildren? We'll separate the headlines from the practical considerations.

Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C. Smith, CFP®, CEPA, and D.J. Barker, CWS®, and Kelly-Lynne Scalice, a seasoned communicator and host, on Henssler Money Talks as they explore key financial strategies to help investors navigate market uncertainty.
