A crackdown on salespeople posing as advisors, a widow who needs an income strategy, plus questions about a reverse mortgage, an RMD, and Social Security.

Allworth Financial‘s Money Matters

On this week’s Money Matters, Scott and Pat weigh the pros and cons of the Labor Department’s looming crackdown on so-called advisors who sell financial products. A Utah man seeks guidance on how to help his widowed mother navigate her financial life. A California caller wants to know whether it makes sense to take out a reverse mortgage. A retiree with a surplus of money asks for help with an RMD strategy. Finally, a 63-year old wonders whether he should take Social Security early.
