For decades, the private equity world has been a velvet-roped party — only open to billionaires, pensions, and endowments. But that might be changing. This month, a new executive order made it easier for private equity (and other high-growth, high-risk assets) to land in your 401(k). On the surface, it looks like access. But Nicole breaks down what's really going on behind the scenes… and why private equity is suddenly rolling out the red carpet for retail investors like you.

All too often hard working people with good jobs are struggling to get by.These are the same people who are forced to take stressful promotions at work and spend a couple hours commuting each day. They come home to the house they think they own, but they are really just a slave to the mortgage company.These “good citizens” are victims of an engineered system to keep them investing in 401Ks, mutual funds, and stocks.This financial system is setup where the insiders are stealing the majority of your returns (and you take all the risk).The truth is the wealth who are investing in alternative assets and operating off a different financial framework and not using these traditional options from a financial planner, commission-based broker, or the retail 401k/mutual fund/stock route.Lane Kawaoka has been investing in real estate for over a decade and now controls 7,500+ units (1$ Billion plus in assets).

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” - Proverbs 22:6As parents, we often wonder when to begin teaching our kids about money. The simple answer? It's never too early. In fact, a study by Purdue University found that most of our lifelong money habits are formed by the age of seven. That's a sobering realization—but also a hopeful one. Because with intentionality and biblical wisdom, we can help our children become faithful stewards from an early age.Here's how to begin—step by step.Ages 3–5: Needs, Wants, and WorshipEven toddlers can begin to understand the basics of money. Start by teaching the difference between needs and wants. A home, food, and clothing? Those are needs. But that cereal with a cartoon character? That's a want—and a perfect conversation starter.As you shop, ask your child to name which items fall into which category. Then take the opportunity to remind them: God provides all our needs and blesses us with more than we deserve.Begin using the three-jar method—one for spending, one for saving, and one for giving. When your child receives birthday money or a small allowance, help them divide it equally. Let them drop their “giving” portion into the offering plate each week. It's a simple but powerful way to connect generosity with worship.Ages 6–10: Responsibility and Short-Term GoalsAt this stage, kids are ready to take on more responsibility. Assign small chores tied to a modest allowance. If they complete the job, they earn the money. If not, the allowance waits. It's a simple lesson in accountability and work ethic.If they want something beyond their current funds, help them create a short-term savings plan. Use sticker charts or visual trackers to make progress fun and tangible.Give your child a few dollars and let them plan how to spend it on snacks for the week. This is a great way to teach a foundational principle from financial teacher Ron Blue:“You always have more choices than money.”Encourage your child to give regularly to causes they care about. Ask why they want to give—and help them understand how giving reflects God's heart.Ages 11–15: Bigger Goals, Delayed GratificationNow your child may be babysitting, mowing lawns, or doing small jobs for neighbors. It's the perfect time to talk about larger savings goals—maybe a new bike or a camp trip.Consider opening a custodial savings account or using a kid-friendly money app. Walk through monthly statements together and celebrate milestones. Let them make decisions (and occasional mistakes) while you're close by to guide them.If they want to buy something online, encourage them to wait a few days, compare options, and pray before making a purchase. The lesson is clear: patience often leads to better decisions.Ages 16–18: Real-World Practice and Investing BasicsTeenagers who are working part-time jobs are ready for more advanced money management.Help them set up a formal budget with real income and categories for saving, spending, and giving. This is also a good time to introduce matching incentives: If they save $500, you match it, just like an employer's 401(k) might.Let them research a company and buy a fractional share through a custodial brokerage account. If they have earned income, consider opening a Roth IRA to model long-term investing.Remind them: Markets go up and down, but faithful stewardship builds wealth over time.The Ultimate Goal: A Faithful StewardReinforce this truth: Their worth isn't tied to their net worth. All we have is a gift from God to be managed for His glory, not our own.No matter your child's age, the goal remains the same: to raise someone who knows how to earn, manage, give, and grow what God has entrusted to them. You don't have to be a financial expert—you just have to be present and intentional.Keep the conversation going. Keep pointing them to biblical truth. And remember—this isn't just a financial lesson. It's a spiritual one.For more resources on biblical money management and to start budgeting as a family, check out the FaithFi app.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 58, single, and plan to keep working until I'm 70. I live frugally and want to ensure that my assets are managed wisely and passed on to my four children, especially my youngest. I'm considering setting up a trust, but the $2,000 cost seems steep. Is that the best option for someone like me who wants to ensure everything is protected and appropriately distributed?I'm looking to understand how reverse mortgages work.

Are there any upfront fees to get started?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Movement MortgageWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Your 401(k) is likely your largest retirement asset—so the decisions made about it can have a lasting impact. This episode explores the pros and cons of keeping a 401(k) versus rolling it over to an IRA.Learn when it makes sense to stay in a 401(k), especially for those retiring between ages 55 and 59½, when a special IRS rule allows penalty-free withdrawals not available in IRAs. Keeping pre-tax funds in a 401(k) may also support more efficient backdoor Roth strategies.Six key factors influence the decision: cost, control, investment options, account consolidation, ease of use, and coordination across accounts. The discussion also dives into advanced strategies—such as in-plan Roth conversions, the tax treatment of after-tax contributions, and Net Unrealized Appreciation (NUA) for company stock.The right choice depends on individual retirement timelines, tax strategies, and long-term financial goals.
