As 2025 winds down, the Noles family breaks down your essential year-end financial checklist—from budgeting and retirement contributions to RMDs, tax-sensitive moves, insurance reviews, Medicare updates, emergency savings decisions, and more.
We also spotlight the latest holiday scams (based on new AARP data), explain how retirees and pre-retirees can stay safe, and take a lighthearted look at the 2025 PNC Christmas Price Index—including which gifts from the “12 Days of Christmas” skyrocketed in cost.
Plus, the Noles Group delivers a heartfelt message for anyone who thinks they’ve “waited too long” to retire. Using inspiration from JFK’s moonshot speech, the team explains why financial planning is a challenge worth taking—and why it’s never too late to start.
