🚨 The ACA Cliff Is Back: How $1 Could Cost You Thousands in Health Insurance
About this episode
The episode discusses the financial implications of the Affordable Care Act on healthcare costs for early retirees.
Most people planning for early retirement focus on investments… But the real shock? Healthcare. Starting in 2026, a little-known rule under the Affordable Care Act could create a massive financial trap: earn just one extra dollar, and your health insurance premiums could jump by tens of thousands. 🎯 In this interview, Peter with Richon Planning and Erin Kennedy break down: • Why marketplace insurance is tied directly to your income—and how that catches retirees off guard • What changes as enhanced ACA subsidies expire • Who's most at risk for major premium spikes • Smart strategies to help avoid this hidden income trap • Why income planning is now just as important for healthcare as it is for taxes 💡 Bottom line: Income in retirement isn't just about what you keep after taxes anymore… It can determine what you pay for healthcare, too. If you'd like to retire before you're eligible for Medicare, start planning now.
