  • Fiduciary vs. Broker: What’s the Difference?

    Fiduciary vs. Broker: What’s the Difference?
    Oct 9 2026
    Financial advisors and brokers can operate under different regulatory standards, compensation structures, and service models. Greg Welborn explains what investors should understand about fiduciary advice, brokerage relationships, fees, conflicts of interest, and the questions to ask before choosing a financial professional.Episode NotesWhat does it really mean when someone says they’re a fiduciary—and how is that different from working with a broker?In this episode, Greg Welborn of First Financial Consulting looks at some of the important differences between investment advisers and brokers, including how they are regulated, how they may be compensated, the types of services they provide, and the potential conflicts investors should understand before choosing an advisor.A fiduciary investment adviser has a duty of care and a duty of loyalty that apply across the advisory relationship. That means the adviser must act in the client’s best interest and cannot subordinate the client’s interests to its own.Broker-dealers operate under a different regulatory framework. When making securities recommendations to retail customers, they are subject to Regulation Best Interest, which requires them to act in the customer’s best interest and address conflicts of interest. The scope and timing of those obligations, however, differ from the fiduciary duty governing an ongoing investment-advisory relationship.Greg also discusses why compensation matters. Financial professionals can be paid in several ways, including asset-based fees, hourly or flat planning fees, commissions, or combinations of these methods. Understanding exactly where an advisor’s compensation comes from can help you identify potential incentives and conflicts before entering into a relationship.The episode also explores the distinction between fee-only and fee-based advice. Fee-only firms are compensated directly by their clients and do not receive commissions for selling financial products. Fee-based firms may receive both advisory fees and certain forms of transaction- or product-related compensation. Understanding the difference can make it easier to evaluate how an advisor is paid and where potential conflicts may exist.Beyond compensation, Greg emphasizes the importance of understanding the depth of the relationship you are actually receiving. Investment management alone is different from comprehensive financial planning that considers retirement cash flow, taxes, Social Security, Roth conversions, estate planning, liquidity, risk management, and other areas of your financial life.Cost is another factor worth evaluating. Even relatively small differences in investment expenses can compound over long periods of time, so investors should understand both the cost of the investments being recommended and the compensation being received by the professional making those recommendations.Greg also discusses risk in broader terms than simply assigning someone a label such as “moderate” or “aggressive.” A good planning process should consider how an investor may actually react during significant market declines, what level of liquidity may be necessary, and whether the investment strategy is likely to remain sustainable during difficult periods.Toward the end of the episode, Greg provides several questions investors can ask when evaluating a financial professional:In what capacity will you be working with me?Are you acting as a fiduciary throughout our advisory relationship?How exactly will you and your firm be compensated?Do you receive commissions or other third-party compensation?How do you approach investment costs and taxes?How do you define and manage investment risk?What does “comprehensive financial planning” mean at your firm?Who will actually be responsible for my relationship and financial plan?What happens if my primary advisor retires or leaves?Can I review your Form ADV, Form CRS, fee schedule, and examples of the planning work you provide?Understanding these questions can make it easier to compare firms based on more than titles or marketing language and determine what type of advisory relationship best fits your needs.Topics discussed in this episode include:Fiduciary financial advisorsInvestment advisers vs. brokersRegulation Best InterestFiduciary dutyFee-only vs. fee-based financial advisorsAdvisor commissions and compensationFinancial advisor conflicts of interestInvestment fees and expensesComprehensive financial planningTax-aware financial planningInvestment risk and liquidityQuestions to ask a financial advisorForm ADV and Form CRSChoosing the right financial advisorTimestamps00:00 — Fiduciary advisors vs. brokers02:09 — How advisor compensation can affect advice03:58 — How fee-only financial advisors are compensated05:30 — Understanding fee-based advice07:35 — Questions to ask about compensation and conflicts08:29 — Why investment costs matter10:03 — Products, taxes, and planning depth11:38 ...

  • When Is the Best Time to Do a Roth Conversion?

    When Is the Best Time to Do a Roth Conversion?
    Oct 7 2026

    When is the right time to do a Roth conversion?

    It’s a question that comes up frequently, but the answer isn’t as simple as waiting for a particular tax rate or assuming that a Roth is always better than a traditional retirement account.

    In this episode, Greg Welborn of First Financial Consulting explains how to think about Roth conversions as one part of a broader retirement and tax-planning strategy.

    Greg begins by comparing the different places investors can hold their savings: Roth accounts, traditional tax-deferred retirement accounts such as IRAs and 401(k)s, and regular taxable investment accounts. The decision isn’t simply whether to use a Roth—it’s how each type of account fits into your overall financial plan.

    A Roth conversion generally involves moving assets from a traditional IRA, 401(k), or other eligible pre-tax retirement account into a Roth account. The taxable portion of the conversion is generally included in income in the year of the conversion. In exchange, future qualified withdrawals from the Roth may be tax-free.

    That creates one of the central questions in Roth conversion planning: Is it preferable to pay taxes today or potentially pay them later?

    Greg explains that comparing your current tax situation with the tax situation you expect in the future is an important part of that decision. If you expect to face significantly higher tax rates later, paying tax on a conversion today may be attractive. If you expect your future tax rate to be substantially lower, converting today may be less compelling.

    But tax rates aren’t the only consideration.

    The amount of time the assets can remain invested in the Roth can also matter. A longer investment horizon provides more opportunity for assets to compound within the Roth structure, which can increase the potential value of the tax-free treatment over time.

    The broader investment strategy matters as well. Different accounts can play different roles within a retirement plan, and decisions about what assets to hold in each account should be coordinated with your time horizon, liquidity needs, risk tolerance, future income needs, and overall tax strategy.

    Ultimately, Roth conversion planning is not a one-dimensional decision. The appropriate strategy depends on your current and projected income, future tax exposure, investment horizon, retirement income needs, and the other accounts and planning tools available to you.

    Rather than making a Roth conversion simply because tax rates appear attractive today—or avoiding one because you hope rates may fall—the decision should be based on how the conversion affects your overall financial plan over time.

    Topics discussed in this episode include:

    • What a Roth conversion is
    • Roth vs. traditional retirement accounts
    • Paying taxes now versus later
    • Current and future tax rates
    • How investment horizon affects Roth planning
    • Tax-free growth and qualified Roth withdrawals

  • What Is High Net Worth Financial Planning?

    What Is High Net Worth Financial Planning?
    Oct 6 2026
    High net worth financial planning involves more than simply managing a larger investment portfolio.As assets grow and financial situations become more complex, decisions involving investments, taxes, estate planning, businesses, real estate, and future generations can increasingly affect one another.In this episode, Greg Welborn of First Financial Consulting explains what high net worth financial planning is, how it differs from traditional financial planning, and some of the challenges families may encounter as their wealth grows.Greg begins by discussing who may benefit from a more comprehensive wealth-planning approach. This can include families with significant investment assets, business owners, executives with equity compensation, people with concentrated stock positions or multiple real estate holdings, and families facing increasingly complex estate-planning decisions.One of the most common problems is uncoordinated advice. High net worth families often work with several professionals, including financial advisors, accountants, estate attorneys, bankers, and insurance professionals. Each may provide valuable advice within a particular specialty, but recommendations made independently can sometimes conflict with decisions being made elsewhere in the financial plan.Greg explains why high net worth planning can benefit from having someone act as a financial “quarterback”—developing the overall strategy and helping coordinate the different professionals involved so that investment, tax, estate, retirement, and family decisions are working toward the same goals.The episode then looks at two real-world planning examples.In the first case study, a couple approaching retirement had approximately $6 million in investments. Their retirement projections indicated that only part of those assets would likely be necessary to maintain their lifestyle, while the remaining assets could potentially be positioned for children and grandchildren.Rather than treating everything as one investment portfolio, Greg discusses using an investment policy statement to identify different goals, time horizons, target returns, risk levels, and liquidity needs. Assets intended to support retirement could be invested differently from assets intended for children or grandchildren decades into the future.That distinction allowed the retirement assets to emphasize liquidity and risk management while longer-term family assets could pursue different growth objectives. It also opened opportunities for coordinating investment decisions with longer-term tax and Roth planning.The second case study involves a family with investment accounts, substantial real estate holdings, and a privately owned business. In this situation, the issue wasn’t simply generating enough retirement income—it was considering how continued growth of the business and real estate could affect the family’s future estate and their ability to eventually transfer those assets to their children.Greg discusses how advanced planning strategies, including family limited partnerships and dynasty trusts, may be considered when appropriate to help address estate-planning, asset-protection, and multi-generational goals. These strategies are highly dependent on the family’s circumstances and require careful coordination with legal and tax professionals.Ultimately, high net worth financial planning is about coordinating the different pieces of a complicated financial life. Investments, retirement income, taxes, businesses, real estate, estate planning, and future generations should not be treated as completely separate decisions.Topics discussed in this episode include:What high net worth financial planning meansWhen traditional financial planning becomes wealth planningCoordinating multiple financial professionalsLifetime tax planningEstate and legacy planningInvestment policy statementsMatching investments to different financial goalsRetirement liquidity and investment riskPlanning for children and grandchildrenBusiness and real estate ownershipMulti-generational wealth planningFamily limited partnershipsDynasty trustsChoosing a financial advisorThe role of a fiduciary wealth advisorTimestamps00:00 — What is high net worth financial planning?00:50 — Common high net worth planning mistakes02:04 — Coordinating multiple financial professionals03:38 — Tax planning and high net worth families07:09 — Case study: Planning investments for multiple generations09:39 — Using an investment policy statement13:00 — Case study: Business, real estate and estate planning15:00 — Family limited partnerships and dynasty trusts16:34 — Choosing objective financial advice18:38 — When high net worth planning may be appropriateLearn more about First Financial Consulting: High-Net-Worth Financial Planning The information discussed in this episode is intended for educational purposes only and should not be considered individualized financial, investment, tax, or legal ...

  • How Trusts Can Help Reduce Estate Taxes

    How Trusts Can Help Reduce Estate Taxes
    Oct 2 2026

    Having a trust does not automatically mean your estate will avoid estate taxes.

    In this episode, Greg Welborn of First Financial Consulting explains how trusts work, why revocable living trusts and irrevocable trusts serve very different purposes, and how certain specialized trust strategies may help families reduce the amount of wealth ultimately exposed to estate taxes.

    Greg begins with the basic structure of a trust. A trust involves a grantor who creates the trust, a trustee who manages the assets according to its terms, and beneficiaries who ultimately receive the benefits of those assets. The amount of control retained by the person creating the trust can have a major impact on how the trust functions for estate-planning purposes.

    One important distinction is between a revocable living trust and an irrevocable trust. A revocable living trust can be extremely useful for managing assets, providing instructions for beneficiaries, and avoiding probate. However, because the creator generally retains control over the assets, a standard revocable living trust does not by itself remove those assets from the taxable estate.

    Greg then discusses three more specialized trust strategies that may be used in estate-tax planning:

    Irrevocable Life Insurance Trusts (ILITs)
    An ILIT can be structured to own life insurance outside of an individual’s taxable estate. This can make life insurance an important tool for families looking to create liquidity or transfer wealth to beneficiaries as part of a larger estate plan.

    Charitable Remainder Trusts (CRTs)
    A charitable remainder trust may be useful when someone owns highly appreciated assets and also has charitable goals. Greg discusses how appreciated assets can be transferred to a CRT, sold and reinvested within the trust, while creating an income stream for the donor and ultimately benefiting a charitable organization.

    Grantor Retained Annuity Trusts (GRATs)
    A GRAT can be particularly relevant when someone owns an asset they expect to appreciate significantly in the future. Greg explains how a GRAT can provide payments back to the grantor during the trust term while potentially transferring appreciation above certain IRS assumptions to beneficiaries in a more estate-tax-efficient manner.

    The larger lesson is that the specific trust matters. Life insurance, highly appreciated assets, rapidly appreciating investments, real estate, and family businesses may each call for different planning strategies.

    Just as important is the trade-off between tax planning and control. Different irrevocable trust structures require different levels of control to be given to a trustee, so estate planning isn’t simply about minimizing taxes. It also requires thinking carefully about cash flow, future asset growth, family goals, beneficiaries, and how much control you want to retain during your lifetime.

    Because these strategies involve complex legal and tax rules, they should be coordinated with qualified financial, tax, and estate-planning professionals and tailored to the specific circumstances of the family.

    Topics discussed in this episode include:

    • Federal estate taxes
    • How trusts work
    • Grantors, trustees, and beneficiaries
    • Revocable vs. irrevocable trusts
    • Living trusts and probate
    • Irrevocable Life Insurance Trusts (ILITs)
    • Charitable Remainder Trusts (CRTs)
    • Grantor Retained Annuity Trusts (GRATs)

  • The Investment Mistake of Putting Too Much in One Place

    The Investment Mistake of Putting Too Much in One Place
    Oct 1 2026

    One of the most common investment mistakes isn’t necessarily choosing the wrong investment—it’s putting too much money into a single one.

    In this episode, Greg Welborn of First Financial Consulting discusses concentration risk and why even an investment that appears attractive can become dangerous when too much of your portfolio depends on its success.

    Greg uses filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola and his investment in the movie Megalopolis as an example. Coppola had decades of experience, an extraordinary track record in the film industry, and invested heavily in a project within an industry he knew extremely well. Yet the project still resulted in significant financial losses. The broader lesson: expertise and past success do not eliminate risk.

    That leads to the central issue of the episode: concentration. Greg explains why putting a large percentage of your assets into a single stock, business, project, or other investment can expose your financial future to the outcome of one decision. Even experienced professionals make mistakes, which is why diversification can be so important.

    Greg also discusses some of the advantages professional money managers may have over individual investors, including dedicated research teams, industry specialization, greater access to information, economies of scale, risk-management tools, and a disciplined investment process.
    Diversification is about more than simply owning several different investments. Greg explains how a portfolio can be diversified across asset classes and investment categories—including large-cap growth, large-cap value, small-cap stocks, international investments, bonds, and other areas—with the goal of balancing expected return with the amount of risk an investor is willing and able to accept.

    The episode also looks at the difference between index and actively managed investment strategies. Index managers generally seek to replicate a particular market index, while active managers select a subset of investments they believe can outperform that benchmark. Greg explains that either approach can have a place in a diversified portfolio depending on the investor and the role that particular investment is intended to play.

    Ultimately, the lesson is straightforward: avoid allowing one investment to determine the success or failure of your financial future. Build a diversified portfolio designed around your goals, risk tolerance, and overall financial plan.

    Topics discussed in this episode include:

    • Concentration risk
    • Diversification
    • The risks of individual stock investing
    • Why experts can still make investment mistakes
    • Portfolio allocation
    • Risk management
    • Professional money managers

  • Mega Backdoor Roth: How It Works for High-Income Earners

    Mega Backdoor Roth: How It Works for High-Income Earners
    Sep 30 2026

    For high-income earners looking for additional ways to build tax-advantaged retirement assets, a Mega Backdoor Roth may be worth exploring.

    In this episode, Greg Welborn of First Financial Consulting explains the basic mechanics of the Mega Backdoor Roth strategy and why it can be especially useful for people who have already reached the standard contribution limits in their workplace retirement plan.

    Greg begins by reviewing the difference between traditional and Roth 401(k) contributions. Traditional 401(k) contributions may provide a tax benefit when the contribution is made, while qualified Roth withdrawals can provide tax-free income later in retirement.

    The Mega Backdoor Roth strategy takes the planning a step further. Greg explains how employees may be able to make additional after-tax contributions to their 401(k) after accounting for their regular contributions and any employer contributions, up to the plan’s overall contribution limit.

    Those after-tax contributions may then be converted into the Roth portion of the retirement plan, depending on what the employer’s plan allows. Greg walks through the basic process of making the additional contribution and then arranging for the funds to be converted to Roth.

    The potential benefit is the ability to move additional retirement savings into a Roth account, where future qualified growth and withdrawals may receive favorable tax treatment. For people already maximizing their regular retirement contributions, that can create another opportunity to build tax-advantaged assets for the future.

    However, not every workplace retirement plan supports this strategy. The plan generally needs to permit the necessary after-tax contributions and Roth conversion features, making the details of the employer’s 401(k) plan an important part of determining whether the strategy is available.

    As with any tax and retirement planning strategy, the Mega Backdoor Roth should be evaluated in the context of your overall financial situation, cash flow, tax strategy, and retirement goals.

    Topics discussed in this episode include:

    • What a Mega Backdoor Roth is
    • Traditional vs. Roth 401(k) contributions
    • Retirement plan contribution limits
    • After-tax 401(k) contributions
    • Converting after-tax contributions to Roth

  • High Net Worth Retirement Planning: 4 Key Areas to Consider

    High Net Worth Retirement Planning: 4 Key Areas to Consider
    Sep 29 2026

    High net worth retirement planning often involves more than simply determining how much you need to save or how much income your portfolio can generate.

    In this episode, Greg Welborn of First Financial Consulting discusses four areas that can become increasingly important as a family’s financial situation grows more complex: tax optimization, alternative investments, succession and legacy planning, and multi-generational wealth planning.

    The first area is tax optimization. Greg explains why tax planning shouldn’t necessarily focus on minimizing taxes in a single year. Because tax rates and financial circumstances can change over time, effective planning may require looking across multiple years—and potentially across an entire lifetime—to understand the broader impact of financial decisions.

    The second area is investment complexity. High net worth families may own more than traditional stocks and bonds. Businesses, real estate, hedge funds, and other illiquid or alternative investments may already represent a significant portion of a family’s wealth. Greg discusses why these assets need to be considered as part of the overall financial and retirement plan rather than treated separately.

    Third is succession and legacy planning. Wills and trusts can provide an important foundation, but more complex family situations may require additional planning to help manage how assets are protected and eventually transferred to future generations.

    Finally, Greg discusses multi-generational planning. Income taxes, capital gains taxes, estate taxes, and other considerations can affect family members differently depending on when and how assets are transferred. For families looking beyond their own retirement, planning may need to account for the financial impact across multiple generations.

    The broader point is that high net worth retirement planning often requires coordination across investments, taxes, estate planning, and family goals. These areas can overlap significantly, which makes it important to evaluate them as part of one integrated financial strategy.

    Topics discussed in this episode include:

    • High net worth retirement planning
    • Tax optimization over multiple years
    • Alternative and illiquid investments
    • Business and real estate holdings
    • Portfolio diversification
    • Estate and succession planning
    • Wills and trusts
    • Multi-generational wealth planning
    • Capital gains and estate taxes
    • Coordinating financial decisions across generations

  • How to Retire at 50: 7 Steps to Plan for Early Retirement

    How to Retire at 50: 7 Steps to Plan for Early Retirement
    Sep 29 2026

    Can you really retire at 50?

    For many people, early retirement can feel out of reach. But retiring earlier than the traditional retirement age starts with understanding what you want retirement to look like, what it will cost, and what needs to happen financially to get you there.

    In this episode, Greg Welborn of First Financial Consulting walks through seven key areas to consider when planning for retirement at age 50.

    The first step is defining your retirement goals. Retirement looks different for everyone, so your plan needs to account for your normal living expenses as well as the things you hope to do with your time—whether that means traveling, giving to family or charities, pursuing hobbies, or simply maintaining your preferred lifestyle. Where you plan to live can also have a significant impact on how much retirement may cost.

    Greg then discusses assessing your current financial position and comparing it with where you need to be in the future. That includes looking at your assets, income, cash flow, and the size of the nest egg you may ultimately need to support your retirement.

    Building that nest egg is only part of the equation. Your retirement plan will also depend on the investment returns you assume along the way, which makes diversification and an appropriate mix of investments an important part of the planning process.

    Once you retire, those assets need to help generate a sustainable income stream. Greg explains why general withdrawal rules can be useful as a reference point, but shouldn’t replace planning based on your own circumstances, spending needs, portfolio, and retirement timeline.

    Healthcare is another important consideration for someone retiring before traditional Medicare eligibility. Greg also emphasizes the value of bringing the different pieces of your plan together, monitoring your progress over time, reducing inappropriate debt, and keeping expenses aligned with the retirement plan you’ve created.

    Early retirement requires coordination across savings, investments, income, healthcare, debt, and spending. The earlier you begin putting those pieces together, the more clearly you can see whether retiring at 50 fits your financial situation.

    Topics discussed:

    • Setting goals for an early retirement
    • Determining what retirement may cost
    • Assessing your current financial position
    • Calculating the nest egg you may need
    • Investing and building retirement assets
    • Creating sustainable retirement income
    • Retirement withdrawal strategies
    • Planning for healthcare before Medicare
    • Managing debt and expenses
    • Monitoring and adjusting your retirement plan
