I recently joined Brandon Goswick and Nate Dean on the Cashflow Legendz Podcast for a fun and wide-ranging conversation about the modern reverse mortgage and how housing wealth can become the “fourth bucket” of retirement planning.

We talked about growing HECM lines of credit, eliminating a mandatory monthly mortgage payment, coordinating housing wealth with life insurance, creating a potential volatility buffer during market downturns, and why a reverse mortgage isn’t right for everyone. Pasted text

And yes, I even got to share one of my favorite stories: “Did Jesus do the first reverse mortgage?” Jump to 5:19 for that one.
