Your Next Dollar: Money Management for High Earners

by NerdWallet Wealth Partners

NerdWallet Wealth Partners’ Your Next Dollar podcast helps high earners learn how to build wealth while still spending on what they value most. At this stage, you can afford anything, but not everything. When is it okay to splurge on your dream vacation or luxury gym? And how do you grow your wealth while doing it? Host Andrew Giancola digs into the decisions that come with a growing income: equity compensation, investing, housing, benefits, taxes, and every big life moment in between. Whether your top priority is family, financial freedom, health, or the experiences that make life worth living, this video podcast helps you think through where your next dollar should go.  Join host Andrew Giancola, with regular appearances from NerdWallet Wealth Partners' fiduciary financial advisors, as they tackle many of the biggest financial questions facing high earners, including: – Investing and wealth building: Tax-aware investing, diversified portfolios, index funds and ETFs, tax-loss harvesting, Roth IRA conversions, mega backdoor Roth contributions, real estate investing, and maximizing tax-advantaged accounts like 401(k)s, IRAs, and HSAs. – Equity compensation: Making informed decisions about restricted stock units (RSUs), incentive stock options (ISOs), non-qualified stock options (NSOs), employee stock purchase plans (ESPPs), vesting schedules, and when to sell versus hold company stock. – Financial planning and big decisions: High-income tax planning, charitable giving, donor-advised funds, retirement planning, financial independence (FIRE), cash flow management, buying a home, paying down debt versus investing, benefits selection, and when to consider hiring a fiduciary financial advisor. – Values-based spending and lifestyle trade-offs: How to splurge without derailing your financial goals, budgeting for travel and experiences, aligning your spending with what matters most, and balancing enjoying life today with building wealth for tomorrow. – Wealth protection and legacy: Estate planning, trusts, 529 plans and college funding, life and disability insurance, umbrella insurance, and what it takes to build generational wealth for your family.
