Retirement Isn't Rocket Science

Your Parents' Money: A Guide to Financial Caregiving

Dr. Chris Mullis, PhD, CFP® Episode 5

Is your retirement trajectory vulnerable to a family financial crisis? Join CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and former rocket scientist Dr. Chris Mullis as he provides your mission briefing on the unexpected world of financial caregiving.
This episode reveals the critical Estate Documents Gap—the lack of simple paperwork (like a Durable Power of Attorney) that can turn an emergency into a costly, dignity-stripping catastrophe. Learn how to secure the necessary "legal launch codes" now to protect your parents and safeguard your own hard-earned nest egg from financial contamination.
We also dive into the new Social Security COLA, decoding how this automatic anti-inflation shield impacts your guaranteed income, taxes, and Medicare premiums. Plus, Dr. Chris shares an inspiring lesson from space about a rebellious young star -- a powerful reminder that you need the right tools to see clearly through the financial dust.
