Layin’ It on the Line: The raise arriving Oct. 14 comes with fine print (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On Oct. 14, the Social Security Administration will announce the 2027 cost-of-living adjustment, and for one news cycle, everyone in America over 62 will know exactly one number. The estimates have been circling between 3.4% and 3.6% which would beat this year’s 2.8 and be the largest bump since 2023. On the average retired worker’s check of $2,071 a month, the high end works out to roughly $75 more. Take the raise. You earned it, and it’s the only inflation-adjusted income most retirees have. B
Layin’ It on the Line: The birthday the IRS has been waiting 40 years to celebrate (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you blew out 73 candles at some point in 2026, congratulations twice over. Once for the birthday, and once because you’ve officially reached the age the IRS has been circling on its calendar since your first 401(k) contribution back in the Reagan years. This is the year required minimum distributions begin. The four decades of “save now, we’ll settle up later” are over. Later is now, and the paperwork has a deadline that’s closer than it looks. For your first RMD only, the government offers w

Layin’ It on the Line: The pension decision — take the lump sum, the lifetime check, or build your own? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Here’s a question I ask folks who walk into my Bountiful office: Does your retirement come with a monthly pension check? For most people retiring today, the answer is no. The traditional pension, the guaranteed check your parents may have retired on that arrived every month until they died, has all but vanished from the private sector. In its place, we got the 401(k): a pile of money and a hearty “good luck.” Let me lay it on the line, that shift quietly moved every risk in retirement off the co
Layin’ It on the Line: The 30-percent pay cut thousands of Utahns choose on purpose (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Somebody asks me a version of this every week: “Lyle, should I just take Social Security at 62 and be done with it?” I understand the pull. You’ve paid in for forty years, the money is sitting right there, and somewhere in the back of your mind is a worry that if you wait, the rules will change and you’ll never see a dime.
