    Ivy Insights

    The Artistic Finance podcast is a valuable resource for artists looking to navigate the financial aspects of their careers. With a focus on providing practical advice and insights from successful artists, this podcast offers a unique perspective on how to achieve financial stability and success in the arts. It breaks down the stigma surrounding money in the industry and encourages open conversations about finance.

    One of the best aspects of The Artistic Finance podcast is its diverse range of guests. Host Ethan creates engaging and insightful interviews with artists from various fields, providing listeners with a well-rounded perspective on financial management in the arts. This allows for an exploration of different experiences, challenges, and strategies that artists can apply to their own careers. Additionally, Ethan's charm and relaxed approach make for easy listening, making complex financial concepts more accessible.

    However, while The Artistic Finance podcast does an excellent job addressing the need for financial education in the arts, it would benefit from including more practical tips and resources. While the discussions are informative and inspiring, some listeners may crave more specific guidance on budgeting, investing, or managing taxes as an artist. Including experts or professionals in relevant fields could further enhance the podcast's value.

    In conclusion, The Artistic Finance podcast fills an important gap in the arts industry by providing much-needed conversations about money management for artists. It offers valuable insights into how to build a financially stable career while dismantling misconceptions about poverty in the arts. Despite room for improvement regarding practical tips, this podcast serves as a source of inspiration and empowerment for artists seeking financial security and success.

    A chat with insurance broker Bruce Komarow about life insurance.    Topics: ⭐️ Term ⭐️ Whole ⭐️ Universal  ⭐️ Blending Types ⭐️ Health Screenings ⭐️ How insurance is regulated ⭐️ How much coverage to get ⭐️ Where and how to purchase ⭐️ Converting Term to Whole up until age 65 ⭐️ Variable Universal for those trying to get a higher return   Takeaways: ⭐️ Term is the least expensive ⭐️ Whole builds cash value and guarantees a payout but is more expensive  ⭐️ Universal is the least expensive way to access a whole life policy but as common as Term or Whole ⭐️ Variable Universal is for people who want to use life insurance as a vehicle to take advantage of stock market growth to get a higher value out of the asset. But, it comes with the risk that the market could take a downturn when the time arrives to redeem the policy. ⭐️ If you're looking at term with the idea you may switch to whole, be sure to check that the company is reputable and has that option.  ⭐️ Insurance is State Specific. I'm bringing this up because states like California and New York have stronger consumer protection laws. All else being equal, a company that can do business in New York might be a safer option than one that can't operate in New York.  ⭐️Hot take from Ethan … Life insurance, could be like a mortgage for people who don't "invest" in real estate. A life insurance policy is forced savings and low maintenance.    If you are looking for life insurance… ⭐️ Ask the people around you for recommendations ⭐️ Find a broker or non captive agent ⭐️ Make sure you can afford it   Bruce Komarow - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bruceallenkomarow/   How Much Life Insurance Should You Carry? https://www.investopedia.com/articles/pf/06/insureneeds.asp   Life Insurance Calculator: https://lifehappens.org/   Previous Episodes of Interest:   The Ultimate Guide To Finding A Financial Advisor - with Matt Kweller: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFEkgeQMYtk&ab_channel=ArtisticFinance   Part 2 - The Ultimate Guide To Finding A Financial Advisor - with Matt Kweller: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALwy55eZlTM&t=12s&ab_channel=ArtisticFinance   6k Investing Special: https://youtu.be/nh5fwQwIOBA   Carl Faber - Be Your Own Financial Advocate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdZI-plB6aU&ab_channel=ArtisticFinance   Book Club - A Cat's Guide To Money by Lillian Karabaic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtNmDVtJ6hM&t=707s&ab_channel=ArtisticFinance   ...

    A conversation with Claudia Hodgson, a Stage Manager turned Online Fitness Coach for backstage theatre professionals.  Her TheatreFit program has helped backstage theatre professionals increase their energy, get fitter and drop unwanted body fat in a sustainable way to ensure it doesn't interfere (negatively) with their career.   Topics: ⭐️ Finding exercises you enjoy ⭐️ Best time of day for working out ⭐️ Importance of eating 10g of fiber ⭐️ Health challenges for offstage workers ⭐️ How long it takes to establish a health routine ⭐️ Working out twice a week is better than not working out   What we don't talk about is mental health. While the physical fitness is what we focus on today, it isn't a wholesome solution unless it is paired with mental health.   According to the World Health Organization, good mental health is when you can: ⭐️ Work productively ⭐️ Realize your potential ⭐️ Contribute to the community ⭐️ Cope with normal stresses of life   Physical fitness and a healthy diet can complement a balanced life.

    An interview with lighting designer Christina Giannelli.   Topics: ⭐️ Freelancing in Houston. ⭐️ Teaching as a retirement plan. ⭐️ Putting all contracts through USA 829. ⭐️ A good accountant will keep you on track. ⭐️ Aging parents while growing older yourself. ⭐️ Real estate as retirement plan & COVID safety net. ⭐️ Focusing youthful energy toward retirement planning. ⭐️ Having an agent negotiate contracts is well worth the agent's fee.   Today's episode was recorded in person at LDI in Las Vegas.    We partnered with AYRTON Digital Lighting, who sponsored the Women In Lighting session to raise awareness and community for women in entertainment lighting.   Takeaways: ⭐️ If you're a part of USA 829, run everything through a USA 829 contract.  ⭐️ Get an agent. Not to help with work but to handle the financial and contractual details.  ⭐️ Getting older. Christina didn't shy away from the reality that YOU have less energy as you get older. Use the energy of youth to set up a financial retirement plan.  ⭐️ It is possible to be a freelance lighting designer in Houston. It's not New York, LA, or Chicago.
