James Lange is a CPA/Attorney and the author of ten best-selling financial books that help IRA and retirement plan owners get the most of what they’ve got. The Wall Street Journal has endorsed Jim’s tax and estate planning strategies 36 times. Jim’s daughter, Erica, has a disability. Jim’s expertise with Roth IRA conversions and the impact of the SECURE Act on IRAs, disability planning, and legacy planning was critical in developing a long-term plan to secure his daughter’s financial future and improve his family’s quality of life. He was quick to realize that his solution, with modifications tuned to each family’s circumstances, could benefit all parents of a child with a disability. Using his family’s journey as the base, Jim authored a new book, Retire Secure for Parents of a Child with a Disability, with two experts in the disability field. Jim and his co-authors believe the book is the best comprehensive financial resource for parents of a child with a disability. Jim would like to offer my listeners two invaluable resources without cost. The first is a copy of the book, Retire Secure for Parents of a Child with a Disability. The co-authors and Jim genuinely believe it is the best financial resource available for parents at any price, let alone free. It has received glowing reviews on Amazon and represents thousands of hours of work from the top experts in their respective areas of planning for parents of a child with a disability.

Diagnosed with bipolar type one at seventeen, Oliver Seligman has battled with euphoric manias, suicidal depressions and bewildering psychoses, as well as the side effects of psychiatric medication. Having spent time in mental hospitals in Norway, Australia and the U.K, he has experienced a range of approaches to bipolar and has tried many forms of alternative treatment and a variety of medications.
