In this eye-opening session, college planning experts Beth Walker and Joe Messinger will show financial advisors how even high-income, high-asset families — including business owners — can implement sophisticated strategies to optimize financial aid outcomes. Using real-world case studies, they will demonstrate how strategic income timing, asset positioning, and business planning decisions can meaningfully reduce out-of-pocket college costs, even for clients who assume they won’t qualify for aid.Jonathan Sparling of Private 529 Plan will join Beth and Joe to present sophisticated 529 plan strategies many advisors overlook. Jonathan’s review will include the power of grandparent-owned 529 plans, how funding 529 accounts during low-income years can create meaningful state tax arbitrage opportunities, how ownership structuring can position 529s as a powerful financial aid asset strategy for divorced or remarried families, and how deliberate beneficiary “generation shifting” can extend tax-free compounding across decades.

Charitable Giving with Purpose: Mastering QCDs and the IRA-to-CGA RolloverFor many retirees, Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) create unintended tax burdens — especially for clients who no longer itemize deductions or don’t need the income from their IRAs.  Join CPA Larry Pon to enhance your knowledge of one the most powerful charitable planning tools available to these clients: the Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD).Attendees will gain a deep understanding of how QCDs allow individuals age 70½ and older to direct up to $105,000 annually (2025 limit) from their IRAs directly to qualified charities — satisfying RMD requirements without increasing taxable income. We’ll compare the tax efficiency of QCDs versus traditional cash donations and highlight key compliance rules that ensure contributions qualify under IRS standards.The session will also cover an exciting, lesser-known opportunity: the once-in-a-lifetime IRA rollover to fund a Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA). This provision allows eligible taxpayers to transfer up to $53,000 (indexed for 2025) from an IRA to create a lifetime income stream for themselves or a spouse — while making a meaningful charitable impact. Advisors will learn how to evaluate when this strategy is most beneficial, how it fits into overall retirement income planning, and what pitfalls to avoid in execution.

Across the globe, interest in leaving the United States has surged — driven by political uncertainty, rising living costs, and the promise of a different lifestyle. Yet beneath the allure of life abroad lies a complex mix of financial, legal, and deeply personal challenges that can make or break the long-term success of an international move. Join Matt Goren, CFP®, PhD, Director of Curriculum for the Global Financial Planning Institute, to learn what truly determines whether clients thrive or struggle when they cross borders. Drawing on global data, cultural psychology, and real-world case studies, Dr. Goren reveals why the biggest risk in international relocation isn’t tax mistakes or a bad exchange rate — it’s the psychological shock that leads many Americans to move back home, often at tremendous financial cost.What You’ll Learn✔ The three types of expat clients — and why their intentions fundamentally shape planning strategies.✔ Outbound, inbound, and cross-border planning differences — and why the wrong approach can expose clients to severe financial pitfalls.✔ How cultural distance, language, and “acculturation style” predict long-term adjustment abroad.✔ Why 25% of Americans living overseas eventually return — and the financial shocks that follow them home.✔ The skyrocketing interest in expatriation in 2025 and the social, cultural, and political trends driving it.✔ Key financial risks: tax residency traps, FX volatility, healthcare uncertainty, property decisions, U.S. reporting requirements, and more.✔ How advisors can help domicile-uncertain clients maintain flexibility without derailing their long-term goals.✔ When a “permanent” move isn’t really permanent — and what causes even deeply rooted expats to reverse course.

With the new OBBB introducing changes to tax laws and retirement planning, understanding the opportunities and potential pitfalls of Roth conversions has never been more crucial.

In an environment of heightened policy uncertainty and increased client anxiety around retirement income, former SSA Director Kurt Czarnowski will begin with a concise update on the current state of Social Security and a practical refresher on foundational claiming strategies. Drawing on decades of experience inside the Social Security Administration, Kurt will ground the discussion in what advisors need to know today before challenging one of the most entrenched pieces of conventional wisdom in retirement planning. Derek Tharp will then examine why the standard advice to delay Social Security until 70 may not apply as broadly as conventional analyses suggest. Many Social Security claiming studies use a 0% discount rate, treating a dollar of benefits at age 62 as equivalent to a dollar at age 95 — an assumption that systematically favors delayed claiming while overlooking important real-world considerations. We’ll explore factors typically absent from standard analyses: mortality risk, sequence of returns risk, policy uncertainty, health span limitations, and the well-documented behavioral reality that retirees spend Social Security income far more readily than portfolio withdrawals. Using dynamic programming models that account for these empirically documented preferences, this session will demonstrate how personalized discount rates adjusted for each retiree’s circumstances can shift optimal claiming strategies meaningfully earlier than conventional guidance would indicate, and why early claiming often reflects rational decision-making rather than financial mistakes.

When a client’s business is their largest asset, succession planning becomes essential. Join tax & estate attorney Andy Weinhaus and insurance advisor Kevin Kimbrough to learn how life insurance safeguards business continuity through buy-sell funding, key-person protection, and family transition strategies—while addressing the valuation, liquidity, and tax complexities that can derail a succession plan. Advisors will leave with actionable guidance on integrating life insurance into cross-purchase, entity, and trust-owned buy-sell arrangements that ensure fairness, liquidity, and tax efficiency for all stakeholders. A special emphasis will be placed on the 2024 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Connelly v. United States, a landmark case that held that corporate-owned life insurance proceeds used to redeem a deceased shareholder’s stock increase the corporation’s value for estate tax purposes—potentially inflating the taxable estate and undermining liquidity planning. Advisors will learn how Connelly affects valuations, the design of buy-sell agreements, and choices between cross-purchase and entity-purchase structures. The discussion will include practical steps to avoid inadvertent estate tax exposure, such as aligning redemption obligations with fair market value, documenting valuation methodology, and considering alternative funding structures.Learning ObjectivesUnderstand how life insurance supports cross-purchase, entity, and hybrid buy-sell agreements in light of Connelly.Evaluate coverage amounts and ownership structures that align with business valuations, statutory requirements, and succession goals.Identify how key-person insurance protects both company and successor interests.Guide clients through tax, funding, and timing factors that impact business continuity and post-death liquidity.Case Study: A family-owned business navigating succession between 2 siblings, balancing liquidity for buyout funding, estate equalization, and management continuity—all through strategic use of permanent insurance

This two-hour IRA CE-eligible ethics program, led by RIA lawyer Richard Chen, examines the ethical, regulatory, and supervisory risks arising from the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in advisory practice. Investment adviser representatives will explore how commonly used AI applications—such as large language models, AI meeting notetakers, and content-generation tools—can create heightened risks related to client confidentiality, accuracy of advice, marketing compliance, and recordkeeping.Through practical examples and realistic case studies, participants will evaluate how improper AI use may lead to violations of fiduciary duty, Regulation S-P obligations, advertising standards, and books-and-records requirements. The course emphasizes the ethical responsibility of advisors to understand, supervise, and critically evaluate AI-generated outputs, reinforcing that human judgment and professional oversight remain essential when integrating AI into client-facing activities.

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) have quietly become one of the most powerful—and most misunderstood—planning tools available to financial advisors.

Financial planners are trained to design technically sound recommendations, yet many experience frustration when clients fail to follow through. This presentation reframes so-called “resistance” not as client defiance, but as meaningful data about trust, anxiety, ambivalence, and readiness for change.Drawing from financial therapy, behavioral science, and counseling psychology, Dr. Megan McCoy introduces practical tools planners can immediately apply in client conversations.

The focus is on helping planners reduce conflict, strengthen commitment, and build durable client relationships without abandoning professional boundaries.Ideal for financial professionals seeking to deepen client engagement, improve retention, and confidently navigate emotionally complex planning situations.

Raising financially capable teens isn’t about teaching spreadsheets or rules — it’s about shaping how young people think, feel, and relate to money before habits harden. In this webinar, Certified Financial Therapist Adam Kohl approaches financial education for teens and older kids through a behavioral lens, helping advisors understand how parents’ beliefs, anxieties, and communication styles quietly shape their children’s financial behaviors — often more than the lessons themselves.Advisors will explore what constructive, age-appropriate money conversations actually look like at different stages of adolescence, and how parents can move from lecturing or rescuing to coaching and collaboration. The session will also introduce practical ideas and prompts that invite teens to engage actively with money: making plans, weighing trade-offs, contributing value to the household or beyond, and experiencing the real consequences of financial decisions in a safe, supportive way.The goal is not to turn teens into miniature adults, but to help families build confidence, agency, and healthier financial relationships — skills that compound long after allowances and college tuition are behind them.
