Course Description

Unbeknownst to most people, economists have been working on personal finance for a century. This CPE webinar for CPAs will describe the state of economics-based financial planning advice. It will cover consumption smoothing, upside investing, safe ways to raise clients' living standards, new technologies for optimizing Social Security, retirement account contribution and withdrawal decisions, the value of Roth conversions, the gain to pre-paying mortgages, and many other topics.

The course will also contrast conventional financial planning with economics-based financial planning. Attendees will learn that everything economists recommend when it comes to financial decisions is at complete odds with conventional financial advice thanks to the ad-hoc and deeply flawed methodology underlying conventional financial planning software. Professor Kotlikoff will demo economics-based financial planning using the sole planning tool available that does economics-based planning.
