Episode Synopsis

Aaron Luttrull welcomes his guest Erik Goodge of uVest Advisory Group once again.
This time, Erik specifically addresses some investment concerns for Realtors and their "lumpy" income. Realtors seem to hold on to their cash (since their income can be up and down) until it causes a "cash drag" on their financial health. Other small business owners can fall into this category as well. If you want to end up with a "work optional life" there are a few things to help keep from getting that "cash drag".
1. Cash Management - Keep about 2 months of expenses in your regular checking. Have about 4 months of expenses in your savings and then get a brokerage account to use to invest your extra cash (this can still be an account that can be fairly liquid).
2. Retirement & Tax Planning - IRAs and Solo 401Ks are good for a stand alone business owner.
3. Unique Investment Needs - Make sure you have an appropriately diverse portfolio. Everything in one area of investment opportunities is dangerous. Having your employment income tied to your employment funds can make you a double loser if you lose your job.
