Capstone Review April 18, 2025

📊 In this Spring 2025 review, I invited students to send their questions — and then walked through real plans in RightCapital to answer them.

🔍 We focused on:

– Probability of Success 📈

– Cash Flow Issues 💸

– Excessive End-of-Plan Assets 💰

– Debt Strategies 💳

– Net Worth Overview 🏦

– Retirement Analysis and Plan Comparisons 👥 vs 👥

🧩 I also showed how to use the Retirement section to create side-by-side proposals and identify planning gaps.

✅ Watch this before you submit your Capstone Report to make sure you’re hitting all the key points.

🙏 A special thank you to all of you for your kind comments about the class, about me, and especially about my upcoming 2026 sabbatical. I will truly miss you all and I hope we stay connected on LinkedIn.

🌟 It’s been a great semester — you’ve done an amazing job diving into personal finance, and I’m proud of the work you’ve put in. Wishing you all the very best as you move forward!
