The Worst of the Free Financial Advisor Podcast – Episode 1: A Big Reveal, College Planning Tips & Tricks & Meet the Roundtable

March 12, 2012 by Average Joe 11 Comments

NOTE: We’re learning “how to do this podcast thing” as we go. Right now we’ve not figured out how to get an RSS subscription started. Finally, we aren’t signed up with iTunes or other services yet. Thanks for your patience!

Update: We’re now LIVE on RSS (it’s probably a lot easier than we made it out to be…) and you can subscribe by clicking here.

Update #2 – iTunes now has us LIVE as well!  So…pretty please with sugar on top, stop by iTunes by clicking here (subscribe if you want to) and write a nice review.  It sure helps us out !  Thanks!

 

To kick off our debut episode, the anonymous blogger at YourFinancesSimplified reveals his real name…and tells us why he’s doing it.

How’s that for a scoop, huh?

TheOtherGuy and I deliver college planning advice and talk about estate planning taxes maybe changing.

We also have introductory interviews with our Roundtable members:

Dr. Dean from the Millionaire Nurse Blog,

Carrie Smith from CarefulCents,

YFS (above)

and of course….wielding the Magic 8 Ball…Len Penzo from LenPenzo dot Com.

Thanks to Buck from the Buckinspire Podcast and Shannyn from the FrugalPreneur Podcast for their help on the episode.

All of our music on the show is from Kevin McLeod’s Incompetech.com.

 

Important Stuff Mentioned in the Show:

  • Peterson’s – Joe’s favorite college guide online
  • FinAid.org – All of the financial aid information you can stand, and much more
  • SavingForCollege.com – A great site to compare 529 plans
  • Fastweb – FinAid’s sister site tobegin your scholarship search

I didn’t mention it on the podcast (but should have). A great blog for college planning help is Money For College Project. Check it out.

  • Our college planning resource page.
  • Our discussion on possible inheritance IRA law changes.

Our Facebook page is here. (If you don’t know why I’m linking to this, you’ll want to listen to the podcast again…..)

We don’t talk about it on the podcast, but link to us on Twitter here for more witty-free banter.

    Great start, even if your panel is a little suspect…

      I forgot that “really good looking” doesn’t translate to a podcast.

      You’re way too nice, Buck. You’re the one with that awesome announcer guy and the great links every week.

      We are going to have a new show every week, except for the several weeks a year that we don’t. Our goal? …about 40 of the 52 weeks a year.

    Very cool show, guys! Just got done listening. Trying to figure out how to leave you a positive review on iTunes. I don’t have FB so I can’t “like” you. I will tweet instead.
