Retired Lawyer & LawmanDoing GoodYou dudes not only make me feel smarter every time I listen to them, but I’d also be happy to drink a beverage with you - which is a rare combination. I work as a professional guardian now, and I sprinkle the wisdom of Devin and John on my clients and their families all the time. Thought you should know you’re doing Good with people in tough situations who haven’t even heard your podcast. Thanks guys.

AllAreTakenAlready!My favoriteThis is my favorite financial podcast! I listen to about 20 or more, and this one comes out on top. They are clear, relevant, and thorough. Just the right amount of personal chit chat to show their personalities and sense of humor, but not too much that I want to fast forward through it. Please keep doing what you’re doing!

Asian listenerHelpful informationLove their humor together and make the boring subject interesting to listen.

JMike50John Ross MissesI’m sure John Ross is a very fine lawyer but I believe he has missed his true calling. He should be doing stand-up comedy. John is one of the funniest people I’ve ever listened to. Very entertaining, keep up the great works Gents!

Interested bystanderOkThey try very hard.

guitarman_brianLong overdue review!This is what I consider the best podcast on financial planning out there, and I listen to a lot of them. You may, like me, have found it due to Devin’s expertise in the arcane rules of Social Security, and kept listening to learn more about retirement financial planning. But what really did it for me was an unexpectedly in-depth and eye-opening episode on trusts, where John really knocked it out of the park. I ended up hiring his firm to do my estate documents, and then (finally!) hiring Devins firm for “my very own Big Picture Retirement!”

greenemachGreat podcastUseful information. They’re both entertaining hosts. For all ages.
-
SensibleInvestorPretends to not be politicalDon’t believe it for a moment! I’m giving two stars, and not one, because some of Devin’s content is useful. John is a political wolf in sheep’s clothing.
-
Buy the print versionThis Podcast is one I never missAlways an excellent podcast! Today’s interview with Ed Slott was one of the best. Packed full of useful information and entertaining!

St Paul HopeRelaxed style, solid infoI’ve learned many things here that I haven’t on other retirement planning podcasts. They go deep into topics that are relevant for planning for aging and retirement, both for myself approaching retirement in the coming year, and for my Mom whose finances I managed until she passed away during the Covid epidemic. Thank you both for the immense amount of work that you put into keeping this podcast going and substantive. And I still love your relaxed style of chatting and joking about life in general, because it makes the head-exploding, detailed learning and information a little easier to absorb. I wouldn’t want you to change a thing. I often find myself backing up and listening to certain sections 2 or 3 times, because there is so much to understand and absorb.

Philat63Recently retired-Really enjoy this podcastI’ve begun to listen to this podcast on my daily walks .I’ve learned some very usable and actionable advice already.I just go through the episodes and listen to the topics that most interest me or apply to my situation.I like that there are so many to choose from.I also like the episodes that are all questions from viewers. Their content is informative and engaging with little filler and no commercials! Thanks

Eliot MitchellBroad subject matter with reasonable suggestionsWhat I like about this podcast is that Devin and John cover a lot of relevant topics and offer reasonable solutions to the common problems associated with the topic being discussed. The don’t get too geeky with the details (although I am ok with that too) that the issue at hand is lost. Some subjects are not relevant to my situation but knowing about them helps me avoid that land mind along my journey. They do not take sides and they do not preach politics. I do recommend that you check their library of shows and find the topic that speaks to your personal situation.
-
JBTXBHMeaty topics explained in understandable wayUnlike most personal finance shows which tend to be pretty basic this show gets into more difficult but relevant topics such was estate planning, trusts and social security. These can be tough topics but are explained very well in an entertaining way.
-
Animation SlowGreat Show!I really enjoy listening to Devin and John. I always learn a little something from every show.
-
Marty 71flhExcellent MaterialVery practical and actionable information for anyone interested in creating long term financial security. I wish that I had listened to something like this 25 years ago. Keep up the great work!
-
Du63keSell disciplineYou forgot to talk about the sell discipline approach to investing. Revere asset management. The best approach is only give advisor 100, 000 and dont share total savings. None of their business. Paying 1000 is better than paying 10,000.
-
ReftedAlways informative.Devin is very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of Social Security. As a result of listening to these podcasts, my wife and I have recently decided to engage in Devin‘s professional services. Together with John, they make for a very listenable and informative podcast experience. I highly recommend this!!

deborahtnHow handle retirementLoved the information about not panicking with market ups and downs. Needed to hear this advice. I’m 64, so getting close to retiring and am having the thoughts being discussed. Thanks for the great info❤️
-
One retireeWell presented with great retirement information!I’ve been a fan of this show as far back as 2019 I believe. Always interesting topics worth listening to.
-
bob0828Worth listeningWorth listening to. Always learn something new!
-
John RallsGreat information, no sales pitchSome retirement and investing podcasts have gone too far in terms of being a sales pitch for advisory services. This podcast does not do that but rather dispenses high-quality in-depth analysis from experts.
-
RcsjawGood podcastThis podcast is always entertaining and more importantly informative, thanks guys
-
All good nicknames gone!Ridiculing retireesI listen to several retirement podcasts and decided to give this one a listen. Most podcasters for retirees or people planning retirement speak kindly and supportively. The hosts of this show sometimes ridicule retirees in the name of humor, and there is an air of arrogance or elitism. I won’t be listening anymore.
-
TN PhilBig Picture Retirement is a great podcast!!The hosts present valuable information in an entertaining format! I look forward to each new episode.

MaryNashMaryThey Know Their StuffWhat are you paying for when you hire a “Wealth” Advisor or Financial Advisor. Mimicking the indices isn’t it! As we get older (I’m 66) you need insight and possibly advice on tax strategies to minimize your income in some years and take advantage of lower tax years. If you don’t know about IRMAA (Medicare additional payment for ‘high’ income earners; it’s time to learn). If you don’t know about Roth Rollover IRAs you might start learning. I’m a dusty Chartered Financial Analyst but the ins and outs of RMDs, IRMAA, and Roths is exhausting.

Ginger 60+Knowledge DuoKnowledgeable duo. Always learn something new.
-
UkrMikeLove itGreat information!
-
AnnArklaI have learned so much!Devon and John can make the most complicated subject easy to understand and always demonstrate how the issue could effect listeners. I am grateful for all the input they have shared. I highly recommend this podcast.
-
CpajdsOne of my favorites!This podcast is one of my favorites—my only complaint is that I have to wait too long between podcasts! Both hosts are very knowledgeable about retirement, social security, Medicare, and taxes. They deliver helpful information clearly, with real life examples and a sense of humor.
-
Bama9000Excellent PodcastYour podcast is one of my favorite retirement related podcasts. Great source of information on retirement, social security and disability, delivered with a dash of humor. I always learn something from every podcast. Thanks!!
-
TG3orIIIWeldon!I always look forward to D and J,IV,Esq! They are knowledgeable and fun.
-
Dave410My Favorite PodcastI listen to a lot of financial podcasts and this one is my favorite. Great hosts and great information. The other podcasts pile up until I have time to listen, but I make a point to listen to Devin and John as soon as a new podcast is released. Keep up the good work, guys!
-
Irv S.Big PicGreat show, love the variety of topics. If the day job isn’t working out you can always fall back on comedy, you guys are good! Thanks for the info. Irv in Minnesota
-
BornbredtexPractical advice with deep knowledgeLike others have noted, the info provided is excellent for those that handle their own portfolio and investment strategies.
-
ajdubeaHappy You’re BackGlad that u 2 are back on the air. I enjoy the diverse topics, insights, banter and humor. Keep up the great work.
-
Vosey2003Best retirement planning info!So glad you guys are back! You have taught me so much and I greatly enjoy your accents and banter. Not yet at retirement age, but I’m going to rock Social Security and retirement planning thanks to you! BTW, one of your best episodes was about the “Black Widow” scammers. Highly recommend you rerun it sometime!
-
Denver VolI’d hire these guysSensible big picture advice. If I lived in their area I would hire these guys! Informative and understandable
-
Pet Trust AdvocateEstate Planning for PetsThe flippant nature of this discussion was outrageous. Neither host can responsibly take care of their own pets and completely miss the importance of this topic. They agree to euthanize older pets that might be less than social. My father passed away 3 years ago and had an aggressive cat that would attack any visitor. No one wanted the feline. I took her home and after 4 months was able to socialize her enough so I wouldn’t be attacked every time I entered her room. She is now docile and living out her life in peace and comfort. You needed to emphasize how easy a trust is to set up for your animals. My trust has financial payments as well as medical coverage. My Trustee also receives yearly payments to monitor my animals. A more serious and sensitive discussion of this topic would have been greatly appreciated.

BigD'sBBQSo glad these guys are back!It’s been a long 2 years waiting on this show to return. So glad to hear they are back!
-
AuntDollySo interesting!!I love these two guys for 3 reasons: 1. As a good southern woman, I could listen to John & Devin’s Texas accents all day long. It’s like the Texas version of City Mouse (John) and Country Mouse (Devin). 2. They are great at explaining difficult situations in a down-to-earth way that 99% of the listeners can understand. 3. They manage to cover the subject of retirement with a little humor, on the side! So why can’t I download the podcasts anymore?!?
