Bonds Explained: What Today’s Bond Market Means for Investors

Is your 401(k) protected from creditors in California, or is that just a myth? In this episode of Protect Your Assets, David Hollander discusses how California creditor-exemption rules may apply to retirement accounts and why protection can depend on individual facts and court interpretation. With recent updates under Assembly Bill 2837, effective January 1, 2025, many investors may be surprised to learn how courts actually interpret these protections. 

David reviews California Code of Civil Procedure Section 704.115 and key court decisions, including one well-known California case involving a 60-year-old executive in bankruptcy who argued that his retirement accounts should be fully protected from creditors. The court examined his age, income, expenses, and future earning potential before deciding how much, if any, of his retirement savings could be shielded. Through examples like this, David explains how factors such as your age, income, other assets, and proximity to retirement can determine whether your 401(k) is protected. If your retirement account is one of your largest assets, this episode clarifies what you need to know about 401(k) creditor protection in California and where potential risks may exist.

401(k) Creditor Protection in California: Is Your Retirement Account Really Safe? 

Choosing a financial advisor is one of the most important decisions you’ll make as you approach retirement. But how do you know if you’re hiring the right person? 

In this Valentine’s Day special of Protect Your Assets, David Hollander, The Sandman, explains why hiring a financial advisor is a lot like dating. Chemistry and trust matter, and asking the right questions upfront can help you avoid costly mistakes later. 

David covers the number one mistake people make when hiring a financial advisor, why focusing only on past performance can be misleading, and the key difference between a fiduciary and a suitability standard. He also discusses how to evaluate credentials, understand advisory fees, and determine whether an advisor truly aligns with your long-term retirement income and tax strategy.
