Welcome to Cortburg Speaks Retirement

Now here is your host, Miguel Gonzalez.
HOST
Good morning and welcome to the CORTBURG SPEAKS RETIREMENT audio podcast.
As the year comes to a close, many of us are thinking about holiday plans and the new year ahead. But before December 31st arrives, there are some smart financial moves you can make to finish strong.
First, maximize retirement contributions if you can. Even small increases add up over time, and some may lower your taxable income.
Second, if you have a Flexible Spending Account, check your balance. Use those funds before they expire so you don’t leave money unused.
Third, review your tax situation. Charitable giving, adjusting withholding, or even tax-loss harvesting may be worth exploring with a tax professional.
Fourth, revisit your budget. Look at where your money went this year and set a more accurate plan for January.
And finally, take care of those financial housekeeping items—like updating beneficiaries, reviewing insurance, or scheduling a financial review.
Year-end is a chance to pause, reflect, and take action. By checking off a few simple items, you can wrap up this year with confidence and start the next one strong.
This is Miguel Gonzalez, Certified Retirement Counselor (CRC) and Managing Partner, with Cortburg Retirement Advisors signing off for this week’s educational podcast.
