As the holiday season approaches and the end of the tax year nears, it’s the time to make charitable giving decisions for the year. I know this can lead to many questions. What are your giving goals? When should you give – is it better to do it now or wait? And the question donors ask more than any other, where should you direct your donations? In Money Conscious Episode 12: Want to Make an Impact with Charitable Giving? It’s Easier than You Think, I’m excited to explore answers to these questions and more with my guest Nicole Hisler, the Senior Vice President and Director of Charitable Solutions at Raymond James Trust. Join us for this lively episode to learn more about trends and developments in charitable giving, some of which may surprise you. Nicole and I also share the many smart ways you can approach charitable giving today and how easy it’s become to do so. We highlight the fast-growing area of donor advised funds, because we think more of you may choose to participate if you know a little bit more about them. Among the many advantages, a donor advised fund (DAF) is extremely easy to set up, provides an immediate tax deduction, and allows you to donate to your favorite charities at the timing of your choice. Many people tell me they love having a special account that is designated just for charitable purposes – and we talk about why. This episode is especially timely since December 16 is the deadline to submit contribution of cash or securities held at Raymond James to a donor advised fund account. This deadline is for new account applications and all contributions. Please enjoy the episode and if you are interested in discussing this further, and possibly setting up an account, contact me and I’ll answer your questions and help you get started. Guest: This episode’s guest is Nicole Hisler, the Senior Vice President and Director of Charitable Solutions at Raymond James Trust. She is responsible for the team that provides general administration of Raymond James Charitable, a nonprofit established to give donors an easy and convenient way to support their favorite charities. Prior to her current role, Nicole worked with Raymond James Charitable for more than five years as a marketing director with Raymond James. Show Notes:
Please visit the Raymond James Charitable website (raymondjamescharitable.org), which is a great resource that provides simple and effective giving solutions for you, including more about donor advised funds and planned giving.

In Money Conscious Episode 11: The Story of Thornburg Investment Management’s Extraordinary LEED Gold Certified Headquarters, my guest is Sergio Silva, Facility Manager at Thornburg Investment Management’s 100,000 square foot certified LEED gold headquarters in Santa Fe. Sergio joined the company in 2015 and currently oversees all aspects of building and grounds maintenance, including physical infrastructure, security, testing and inspections, environment, and health and safety requirements. Recently at a conference hosted by Thornburg, Sergio gave me a tour of the headquarters. I was absolutely fascinated as he described the foresight and comprehensive planning that went into the design, construction, and ongoing maintenance of this green building, and how the development of new technologies means that over time the energy efficiency is increased, and the environmental impact of the building grows lighter. I asked Sergio to share with my listeners what makes this building such an excellent example of the extraordinary efficiency that can be achieved when businesses choose to make their buildings green. In today’s episode, Sergio and I share the highlights from my tour, including how:
The building was designed to use 47% less energy and 43% less water than a facility of a typical size.
This building has achieved 100% carbon neutrality. The rooftop installation of solar panels produces a surplus of energy annually, directing the unutilized power from the building back to the local power grid. This clean energy counters Thornburg’s carbon emissions and offsets its carbon footprint.
Passive water harvesting, an underground cistern and an outdoor porous paving system allow the headquarters to reduce outdoor water use and direct cleaner water back into the community.
Significant environmental elements are integrated into the interior and exterior of the building.
Noteworthy interior features include a highly efficient underfloor air delivery system, sensor-controlled T5 lighting, operable windows, low-emitting materials and extensive controlled daylighting to make use of solar energy.
The building honors the beauty of Santa Fe’s natural environment while incorporating the latest in building technology and design.
And much, much more!
Show Notes:
Please review the Thornburg Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Annual Report released in June 2022 - link: https://www.thornburg.com/pdfs/csr-annual-report-2022. It contains additional insight on the building and Thornburg’s approach to the environment and sustainability. Pages 20-21 are specific to the building, with additional details throughout the report.

In Money Conscious Episode 10: A Raymond James Expert Shares Why You Don’t Need to Fear Bear Markets, my guest is Mike Gibbs, Director of Equity Strategy and Director of Portfolio & Technical Strategy for Raymond James. I’ve known Mike for many years and there’s no one better to share fact-based analyses of the markets – including where we are and where we’re likely going. He’s a natural storyteller, so he explains it all in a personal and relatable way that will help calm your fears if you are concerned about the bear market and the volatility we’re experiencing. We explore in detail many key areas such as:
How economic factors are different compared to the last economic crisis that started in 2007. For example, corporate balance sheets are strong, and banks are overcapitalized, which means there is less risk in the system today.
Why the Fed’s rate hikes lead to market and economic contraction – and why we should see inflation start to moderate.
Why Mike predicts that if we dip into a recession, it will likely be shallow and relatively short. “Market bottoms have a tendency to come very violently and be over in a hurry.”
Market turnaround timing is tough to predict, and the market will likely go up a lot before news headlines turn positive.
Bear market history – e.g., the average decline in and length of a bear market are 33% and 13 months, respectively. The S&P 500 is now down about 25%. We have already been in this bear market for 8.5 months.
Bear markets are stressful, but history shows us that the economy heals, and the market reaches a new high every single time.
The fact is that stocks rise more than they fall; in bull markets, they go up an average of 152%.
Why sectors like green energy, healthcare, cybersecurity and software are booming and will continue to in the future; and
Bear markets offer strong buying opportunities.
Guest: This episode’s guest is J. Michael (“Mike”) Gibbs. Mike joined Raymond James in 2012 through the acquisition of Morgan Keegan & Co. He currently serves as the Director of Portfolio & Technical Strategy for the firm. He joined Morgan Keegan in 1986 as a financial advisor and became Senior Investment Strategist for the firm in 2003. In 2009, he assumed the role of Director of Equity Strategy. As Investment Strategist, his role is to guide financial advisors on market strategy and stock selection through the use of fundamental and technical analysis. Read his full bio.

You’ll also hear about YourStake, an extremely powerful new software that incorporates over 100 metrics around key areas of concern such as health, environment, human rights, and many more.

Hi all, If you or someone close to you has ever had to research Medicare healthcare coverage, you may be familiar with how overwhelming it can be. Huge numbers of letters, fliers, emails, and more suddenly arrive at your doorstep. How does one even start to sort through all the possibilities? The truth is, the more people understand about Medicare before turning 65, the better their ability to make excellent personal decisions with minimal stress. That’s why I’m excited to share with you my latest Money Conscious podcast - How We Help Clients Navigate Their Medicare Coverage. In this episode, we demystify one of the largest insurance programs in America. My guests are Giordano Rapati, Licensed Medicare Advisor with ClearMatch Medicare, and Toni Noto, our team’s Lifecycle Planning Specialist. Giordano and Toni offer a personal concierge service that The Millstone Evans Group provides to our clients, helping to make the Medicare process less daunting and more understandable, pre-age 65 and after. Some common questions and issues our personal concierge service addresses include:
Will you be able to continue with your current doctors?
Should you elect supplemental coverage and, if so, what kind, and when you should enroll?
Finding the best pricing for your medications and providers.
Clarifying what your yearly out-of-pocket expense will be upfront.
Although Medicare does not cover these, helping you select dental, vision, and hearing coverage. Note: many people think they cannot get these coverages once they are enrolled in Medicare, but that is not the case.
Happy listening! Sacha

In Part 2: How Sustainable Investing Leader Katharine Collins Finds Opportunity in Times of Change, the latest episode of the new Millstone Evans Group podcast Money Conscious hosted by President Sacha Millstone, Sacha and guest Katharine Collins share their views on how to manage the volatile markets. The stress during times of market volatility is real. At the same time, it is important to remember that crisis = opportunity. Today’s low prices are an opportunity for tomorrow’s investment returns. In this engaging and personal episode, the women focus on how to stay patient and even-keeled and why those attributes are so helpful in making sound, long-term decisions. Amplifying a sense of fear and scarcity almost always leads to poor decisions. They also share healthy habits to adopt when you’re feeling stressed about the markets, such as embracing outdoor walks, avoiding what they call “doom scrolling,” and increasing communication with your financial advisor if you have any questions or concerns about the market or your investments.

In Knowledge is Comfort: Why We Love Dividend-Paying Stocks, the latest episode of the new Millstone Evans Group podcast Money Conscious hosted by President Sacha Millstone, Sacha and Ben explore how the 2008 financial crisis was very different than what we are facing today. You’ll hear why the consumer is in a much better position now, including why the broad-based level of inflation that we're experiencing now is also quite different than what we had in 2008. You’ll get a brief and engaging glimpse into how a research expert analyzes and evaluates companies to find opportunities during down times and make investments for multi-year horizons. You’ll also find out why savvy investors should understand the importance of dividend-paying stocks, which are the best performing asset class this year. As Ben notes in the podcast, “Dividends are also called equity income and equity income has the really important feature of being able to grow over time. So as opposed to being fixed, dividends go up over time as the economy grows, as inflation happens. Good companies are able to share their profits with investors. And as those profits grow, they share more of those profits with investors.” Knowledge is power. Knowledge is comfort, too. We hope this episode brings you both.

Parents and grandparents alike often worry about how their families will be able to handle the high cost of higher education. One of the questions I hear a lot is: with tuition so high these days, how will we pay for our children’s college education? You may be surprised to learn how dramatically the choosing and funding landscape has changed! We are excited to share options and answers in How to Conquer the Complicated College-Funding Process, the latest episode of the new Millstone Evans Group podcast Money Conscious, hosted by President Sacha Millstone. In this episode, Sacha and her guest, Peg Keough, Director of Education at College Aid Pro, reveal how a powerful tool plus expert advice can help families plan for higher education and then start down the daunting road of applications. Listen and learn how to get the young people you love into a college that is a great choice for them, while creating a college-funding strategy that works. Key takeaways include how to be:
Prepared to explore a school’s financial fit as well as academic and social aspects.
Proactive about what to ask for, rather than reactive and resigned to initial offers.
More encouraged about options, possibilities and strategies, and finding the people within educational systems who can help you achieve your family’s goals.
It’s cliched but true: knowledge is power. Not only that, but knowledge is also a stress reducer. Most people drift through the complicated college-funding process stressed out, immersed in applications, and unaware of options. That’s a costly and largely avoidable mistake. This episode is a primer not only for parents considering tuition costs, but also for grandparents who want to help financially support a grandchild’s education and/or share options with their family. Show Notes: Podcast guest and financial planner/wealth manager Peg Keough became an expert in college funding when her twins hit high school and the thought of paying well into five figures each for college was daunting, to say the least. She jumped in headfirst and created her company Way to the Quad to build understanding of how the college system works. Her mission is to help families find the best financial fit college for their kids and maximize discounts available on the overall cost of college. More about Peg: https://waytothequad.com/about-peg

A little concerned about the current volatile stock market? Wondering what it could mean for your portfolio and what you can do about it? You are not alone. Welcome to the third episode of the new Millstone Evans Group podcast Money Conscious, hosted by President Sacha Millstone.

Welcome to the second episode of the new Millstone Evans Group podcast Money Conscious, hosted by President Sacha Millstone. In episode two, Sacha and her guest, bond market expert James Camp, explore in depth:
How the bond market works differently than the stock market. Everyone can get the same quote on a stock price (e.g., the price at which you buy and sell).
The innovation James led at Eagle to combine dividend stocks and bonds in the same managed portfolio and offer different proportions of each to match different clients’ risk tolerance levels.
Dividend rise over time and how stocks can be inflation fighters when they raise their dividends at a greater annual pace than inflation.
Why dividend paying stocks are the best performing asset class this year and why James is excited about the bond market right now.
Guest: James Camp, managing director of Eagle Asset Management’s Fixed Income and Strategic Income strategies. Before joining Eagle in 1997, James was a vice president in the Fixed Income Research and Mortgage Specialist groups at Raymond James & Associates following three years at ING Investment Management. He has appeared on CNBC, Bloomberg TV and FOX Business News and has been quoted in the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg News, Reuters, the Economist, Financial Times and other financial news publications.
