Kevin Esler is Back!

Kevin Esler is the creator of ⁠⁠tipsladder.com⁠⁠, a free website that helps you purchase TIPS -- Treasury Inflation Protected Bonds. Back on July 18th, Kevin joined Economics Matters - the Podcast to walk everyone though his tremendously valuable tipsladder.com website. Kevin's spent the last few months making the tool far more accessible and versatile. You can now use a slider bar to see how much a ladder will cost that produces a given amount of annual real income over your specified number of years. You can also adjust the cost to determine how much real income will be forthcoming over your specified interval.

I think watching / listening to this new podcast, either on its own or in combination with the prior podcast, will leave you an expert on the tool. In particular, you'll see that it's truly no big deal building (by purchasing) a tips ladder that can match up with the withdrawals of regular and retirement account assets needed to sustain your living standard. These withdrawal amounts are calculated by MaxiFi Planner. Just look for the red withdrawal amounts in the saving reports for both regular and retirement accounts.Kevin is a retiree from Australia with an extensive background in software and technology, which he leveraged into a series of top software engineering jobs at a range of leading companies including IBM, HP, and Disney Plus. After moving to the US he settled into a series of roles that saw him specializing in evolving technology and software development. Kevin is uniquely positioned as an authority due to his multifaceted expertise in tech and finance, particularly in understanding and managing investment strategies involving Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS).
