📬 FFA October Newsletter: Is Your Retirement Plan Ready for Q4?
Dear Chamber Members,
As we move into the final quarter of 2026, there are a few financial decisions worth putting on your radar.
Our October Financial Newsletter covers several topics that could directly impact your retirement, taxes, healthcare costs, and investment strategy.
📊 This Month’s Highlights
- Social Security: Taking benefits at 62, 67, or 70 can produce very different outcomes. The right answer depends on your income needs, health, work plans, and overall retirement strategy.
- Your 401(k) May Not Be as Diversified as You Think: A target-date fund can make investing simple, but it doesn't know your full financial picture. We look at what is actually inside your 401(k) and why that matters.
- The Triple-Tax Advantage Most People Overlook: If you're eligible for an HSA, it can do much more than cover today's medical expenses. It can also become a powerful long-term retirement planning tool.
- Medicare Open Enrollment Is Coming: October 15 through December 7 is an opportunity to review your Medicare coverage before next year. Changes in premiums, coverage, providers, and prescriptions can make a review worthwhile.
- Q3 Market Review: The market hit new highs, but the story underneath was more complicated. We break down what drove the quarter and what we're watching heading into the end of 2026.
- The bigger takeaway: Your financial plan isn't just about how your investments perform. It's about how your retirement income, taxes, healthcare, investments, and major financial decisions work together.
For a quick overview, the key takeaways are also summarized in the latest LinkedIn post.
