  • Ever feel like Uncle Sam is reaching too deep into your pockets? We've got you covered! On today's lively episode, we're unraveling the complex world of taxes for our ADHD community, tackling a tough question from Yvonne in our ADHD Money Talk Facebook group. She's got a state pension and a 403(b), but no 401(k)—so how can she keep a tight grip on her hard-earned cash? Fear not, because we're not just spewing generic advice; we're serving up educational insights that just might spark some genius tax planning strategies for you.

    We kick things off with a candid reminder to look at the big financial picture—because tunnel vision on tax reductions can lead to missed opportunities elsewhere. It might sound paradoxical, but we explore why paying more taxes now could actually save you a bundle in the future, especially if you're eyeing a higher tax bracket with a looming promotion. We'll guide you through the ins and outs of Roth IRAs, 403(b)s, and the often overlooked aspect of tax planning over mere tax minimization. Whether you're juggling a state pension or just trying to outsmart the taxman, this chat is locked and loaded with the financial firepower you need to potentially lower your taxable income and secure a wealthier tomorrow.

  • In this episode, we dive into the brain's role in financial decision-making, with a special focus on individuals with ADHD. We follow the story of Jordan, who grapples with typical financial decisions, such as whether to make an extra mortgage payment or invest in stocks. Experts like E Sonuga-Barke, G Fairchild, and A Stringaris provide insights into the unique challenges faced by those with ADHD.

    We examine how the default mode network, essential for planning and self-reflection, and the amygdala's reward-seeking behavior contribute to impulsive financial decisions that can impact long-term stability.

    The episode explores the workings of the ADHD brain, particularly the prefrontal cortex's role in controlling attention and impulses, and the interactions of the frontostriatal and frontoparietal circuits. We also discuss the crucial functions of the anterior cingulate cortex in emotional regulation and the orbitofrontal cortex in error detection, offering a glimpse into the ADHD brain's approach to financial planning.

    By the end of this episode, listeners will have a deeper understanding of the complexities of the ADHD mind and the strategies that can assist in navigating the financial challenges associated with it.

  • Are you someone with ADHD who's struggling to get a handle on your finances? Well, you're not alone. Many people with ADHD find it challenging to manage their finances, leading to financial stress and anxiety.

    But fear not! There is a way out of this financial mess, which could start with making sacrifices.
