When Dennis O’Keefe was growing up, his family called him “Mr. Perfect” and “The Shell Answer Man” because he always had an answer for everything. Decades later, that nickname still fits, especially when it comes to the complicated, frustrating world of healthcare costs in America.

In this episode, Dennis dives into one of the most confusing and emotionally charged questions in retirement planning: Why is healthcare so expensive, and where is all that money going? From drug pricing myths to the ripple effects of private equity, Dennis brings over 30 years of financial wisdom to help you make sense of what’s really driving healthcare inflation (and what you can and can’t do about it).

What to expect:

  • A personal story that explains why Americans are wired to demand choice and how that affects cost
  • A breakdown of the real drivers behind rising expenses, including specialization and advertising
  • The truth behind generic vs. name-brand prescriptions
  • Why private equity is quietly reshaping the healthcare landscape and what that means for you
