2-6-26 The Wealth-Health Gap

Why do wealthier households tend to live longer and experience fewer chronic diseases? Richard Rosso & Jonathan McCarty break down the Wealth-Health Gap—how income, savings, and environment shape health through housing quality, access to care, and financial resilience. We also flip the lens: poor health can reduce earnings, drain savings, and create a vicious cycle that widens disparities across generations. Finally, we discuss systemic factors that amplify the gap and practical policy ideas aimed at improving both economic stability and health outcomes. 0:00 - INTRO 0:20 - Uncle Floyd & Chuy Intro 3:06 - The Health-Wealth Connect 6:05 - Diet, Lifestyle, & Spending Choices 7:32 - Kevin O'Leary's Health-Wealth Regimen 9:40 - Lifestyle Matters 12:48 - The Cost of Healthy Eating 20:02 - The Revolution in Health in Wealth Planning 22:02 - Younger Generations Want to Know 27:15 - Planning for Healthy Retirement 28:30 - Information for Better Health 31:56 - Planning for Healthcare Costs in Retirement 34:14 - Why Not Know? 38:40 - Stack the Odds in Your Favor 44:15 - Candid Coffee Teaser Hosted by RIA Advisors Director of Financial Planning, Richard Rosso, CFP, w Senior Investment Advisor, Jonathan McCarty, CFP Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Register for our next Candid Coffee, 2/21/26: https://streamyard.com/watch/Wq3Yvn9ny5GV ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/live/TynkcovRQIQ?feature=share ------- Watch our previous show, "Truflation vs CPI: What Inflation Is Really Doing Today," here: https://youtube.com/live/Ojlx_IPrDUg?feature=share -------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Markets Set Up for Rotation Trades is here: https://youtu.be/IKsm6U2CK8w ------- Visit our E-book Library (no library card required!) https://realinvestmentadvice.com/ria-e-guide-library/ -------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #WealthHealthGap #SocialDeterminantsOfHealth #HealthEquity #FinancialPlanning #WealthInequality
