  • How Financial Advisors Add Value

    How Financial Advisors Add Value
    Jul 17 2025

    In this episode of Unsolicited, Keith Wilson and Anthony Ruffalo break down what real financial advising looks like—beyond just managing investments.

    We dive into how great advisors bring value year after year through strategic tax planning, estate guidance, navigating life events, and helping you avoid costly mistakes.

    It’s not about a one-time transaction. It’s an ongoing relationship built to adapt, adjust, and support your goals through every season of life.

    If you think a financial advisor just “manages money,” think again.

  • Annuity Awareness Month

    Annuity Awareness Month
    Jul 1 2025

    🎙️ It’s Annuity Awareness Month… or at least it was when we hit record.
    In this episode of Unsolicited, we dive into the world of annuities—yes, all of them. From immediate and fixed annuities to MYGAs, variable annuities, and fixed indexed annuities, we break down what they are, how they work, and where the confusion often begins.

    We don’t sugarcoat it. You’ll hear the good, the bad, and the “what were they thinking?” of annuities. Most importantly, we walk through where annuities might make sense in a plan—and when they absolutely don’t.

    No sales pitch. Just real talk. Because that’s how we do it here.

  • RSU's and Equity Comp: What You Really Need to Know

    RSU's and Equity Comp: What You Really Need to Know
    Jun 17 2025

    In this episode of Unsolicited, Keith Wilson and Anthony Ruffalo break down the often misunderstood world of RSUs—Restricted Stock Units—and what equity compensation means for executives and employees alike.

    We walk through the three key events every RSU holder needs to understand: grant, vest, and pay—and how each impacts your taxes and planning. Then we tackle the big question: Should you sell or hold? The answer, as always, depends on your goals.

    Whether you're swimming in stock from a recent vest or just trying to make sense of your latest grant letter, we’ll help you figure out how an RSU fits into your broader financial plan.

    No fluff. No sales pitch. Just straight talk. Unsolicited, of course.
