Money Matters
Weekends
Money Matters is the country's longest running live call-in investment and personal finance radio show. Money Matters is hosted by Wes Moss who is the Managing Partner and Chief Investment Strategist at Capital Investment Advisors (CIA).
From dissecting the latest financial news to offering personalized responses to listener questions, the goal of Money Matters is to keep you informed and empowered. Wes Moss is often joined by team members Jeff Lloyd and Connor Miller with a mission to provide clear, actionable guidance without the financial jargon and help one million families retire sooner and happier.
Wes Moss is the Managing Partner in Capital Investment Advisors (CIA), a fee-only investment firm with over $7 billion in assets under management (as of June 2025). Also serving as Chief Investment Strategist, he leads a team of financial advisors who share a zeal for helping families find happiness in retirement.
Wes is a firm believer in income investing as a means to build and manage retirement savings. He and his team at Capital Investment Advisors help individuals and families invest in assets that make regular cash payments in the form of dividends, interest, and distributions. During the investor’s wealth-building years that income stream is reinvested in the portfolio to help contribute to its growth. In retirement, those payments can be directed into the investor’s bank account as a “paycheck” to help meet monthly expenses.
A fervent financial evangelist, Wes utilizes media platforms to teach readers, listeners, and viewers how they can retire on their own terms. He bases much of his retirement planning philosophy on years of extensive research studying and surveying the financial and lifestyle habits of happy retirees, all of which can be found in his two books: What The Happiest Retirees Know and You Can Retire Sooner Than You Think. He is the host of Money Matters, and the host/creator of the nationally recognized Retire Sooner Podcast as well as a frequent resource for news outlets across the country.
Before joining CIA, Wes worked for UBS Financial Services in its Atlanta office. He holds a degree in economics from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He lives in Atlanta with his wife and their four boys. His core pursuits are golfing and coaching his boys’ lacrosse teams.
