Welcome. This is the personal blog of J. Barry Watts, founder of WealthCare Corporation and a Certified Financial Planner with more than 30 years spent helping people build tax-free retirement income they can't outlive. Barry grew up in the rural Missouri Ozarks, spent years as a minister before entering financial services, and has since appeared in the Wall Street Journal's SmartMoney Magazine and on NBC and CBS. Here he writes about what he knows best: taxes, retirement planning, and leaving a real legacy.
This blog comes back to one idea again and again: that tax strategy is personal, and most people have never seen the tax code work in their favor. Barry uses plain language, farm-grown storytelling, and hard-won client experience to help readers think differently about their money and their future.
