Welcome to So Money.

Hey friends, it's November 7th, 2025.

Welcome back to Ask Farnush Fridays. We're going to do something a little different today. We have a guest. My friend and financial planner, Georgia Lee Hussie, founder and

CEO of Modernist Financial, is joining me. And together, we're going to unpack the big, beautiful

bill. Remember that? And what it's going to mean

for our taxes this year and in years ahead. We're going to get into how this new legislation

could impact everyday taxpayers, what it says about our national priorities, and how we can align

our money decisions with our values. That's where Georgia Lee helps a lot of our clients.

And so we're going to get a little political. So just a forewarning, if you're not into that,

you can skip this one. But as Georgia reminds us, taxes are political, whether you like it or not.

Before we dive in, though, a quick recap in case you missed our episodes this week. On Monday,

I marked So Money's 1900 episode with my friend and longtime colleague Tracy Burns, a certified

divorce financial analyst who helps women in midlife regain control of their finances after divorce.
