There's been renewed protests and anger in Minneapolis following the fatal shooting of a man by federal immigration agents; the second such incident in the US city in three weeks. Also on the programme, a third and final stage of voting is taking place in Myanmar in what are widely viewed as sham elections; and, a new record for sailing round the world.(Photo: A federal agent fires a munition toward demonstrators near the site where a man identified as Alex Pretti was fatally shot by federal agents trying to detain him, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, U.S., January 24, 2026.REUTERS/Tim Evans)

That's the history that Andrew Paxman, lays out in his new book “Mexican Watchdogs: The Rise of a Critical Press Since the 1980s.” Paxman joined the “México Centered” podcast to discuss the various challenges to press freedom throughout modern Mexican history and what may lie ahead in the MORENA era, from the future of critical media to the growing role of the digital influencer.

In this chilling episode, Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube channel returns to share a haunting account that unfolds deep within the isolated Alaskan wilderness, where land, legacy, and something unknown collide. The story centers on James Junior and his uncle Oscar, whose connection is strained by years of unresolved family tension tied to a remote piece of inherited property.Once dismissed as nothing more than an unwanted reminder of the past, the land comes with unsettling warnings from their late mother—warnings that linger long after her passing.After years of neglect, Oscar decides to reclaim the property by building a small cabin in one of the most desolate regions imaginable. What begins as a practical decision quickly spirals into something far darker.During an unexpected visit years later, Oscar experiences an overwhelming sense of being watched, followed by strange sounds, rolling fog, and the sudden appearance of a massive, unidentified figure looming near the cabin. The encounter leaves him shaken and searching for answers.Determined to confront whatever may be lurking on the land, Oscar and James Junior return in the dead of winter, armed and on edge. What they encounter instead defies explanation—deep, guttural growls echo through the frozen forest, and a rare white raven appears, a symbol regarded in many Indigenous cultures as an omen or spiritual messenger.As tension mounts and the environment turns hostile, fear overtakes reason, forcing the men into a desperate retreat as piercing screams follow them through the fog. Fred breaks down the details of this encounter and explores whether the behaviors, warning signs, and environmental cues described in this story could help others avoid similar traumatic experiences in remote wilderness areas.Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTubeGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.
Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The Commonwealth has rested its case against Brendan Banfield — and the final witnesses may have sealed the prosecution's narrative. Blood stain pattern analyst Iris Dalley Graff delivered hours of testimony explaining why the forensic evidence at the crime scene doesn't match an interrupted home invasion. Instead, she told jurors, the blood patterns suggest deliberate staging.Graff testified that Joseph Ryan's blood flowed in multiple directions — indicating his body was moved after he was shot. Even more damning: Christine Banfield's blood appears to have been intentionally transferred onto Ryan's hands, pants, and forearm. Graff described "finger-like" transfer patterns and blood droplets consistent with someone dripping blood from above. This directly supports Juliana Peres Magalhães' testimony that Banfield moved Ryan's body and smeared his dead wife's blood on the man to frame him.Defense attorney John Carroll attacked Graff's conclusions and highlighted body cam footage showing Banfield with bloody hands on his wife's neck when police arrived — suggesting a husband attempting first aid, not a killer staging a scene. After the jury was dismissed, Carroll moved to strike all charges, calling the au pair an unreliable witness. Judge Penney Azcarate denied the motion.The defense now takes over with four to five witnesses planned. The question: can John Carroll fracture the prosecution's narrative enough to create reasonable doubt?#BrendanBanfield #AuPairAffair #ChristineBanfield #BloodEvidence #FairfaxCounty #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #JulianaMagalhaes #CrimeSceneAnalysis #DoubleHomicideJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Here’s a question that’ll make your head spin: You just inherited 50 neglected accounts, and your customers feel taken for granted. How do you reposition yourself as a high-value partner instead of just another transactional vendor who’s about to disappoint them? That’s the question posed by Scott Northway, and it’s one of the most common challenges I see in sales today. A new account manager takes over, inherits a book of business that’s been ignored, and now has to figure out how to rebuild relationships with customers who’ve been collecting dust. If you’re nodding your head right now, you’re not alone. Poor account management is quietly bleeding companies dry, and most leaders have no idea how much revenue they’re leaving on the table. The Brutal Truth About Why Customers Leave When we survey customers through our consulting projects with clients who are hemorrhaging accounts, here’s what we find: About 70 percent of the time, customers don’t leave because of price. They don’t leave because of product quality or service issues. They leave because they feel taken for granted. Let me give you a real example. I pay six figures annually for a software program that’s critical to my business. Every time my contract comes up for renewal, it’s like a circus. They fly people in. They wine and dine me. They promise the moon about how they’re going to support us and be our partner. Then once the contract is signed? Crickets. My account manager disappears for three years. If I don’t call them, they don’t call me. And here’s the thing: I actually like my account manager. I genuinely want to work with them. There are products I could buy, optimizations we could make, but I have to do all the work to make it happen. This is insane. And it’s costing companies millions. What Won’t Work: The Rookie Mistakes So you’ve inherited these neglected accounts. Here’s what you absolutely cannot do: Show up on their doorstep apropos of nothing and try to sell them something. If I’m an existing customer doing business with your company, and you show up trying to pitch me without acknowledging the elephant in the room, we’re probably done. It’s rude. It’s bad behavior. And it tells me you’re just like every other transactional vendor who doesn’t actually care about my business. The second mistake is spreading yourself too thin across all 50 accounts without any strategy. You’ll burn out, deliver mediocre service to everyone, and end up losing accounts you could have saved. The Human-to-Human Approach That Actually Works Here’s what does work: Be honest. Be human. Name the problem. Pick up the phone and say something like this: “Hey, I’m your new account manager. I recognize that no one’s contacted you in a while, and I’m sorry about that. I apologize. I’d like to do a fresh start. Would you give me the opportunity to get to know you better and learn about what’s important to you?” That’s it. Simple. Direct. Human. Now here’s the hard part: When you have that conversation, some customers are going to unload on you. If they really have felt taken for granted, they’re going to say some nasty things. They might complain about the last account manager. They might air grievances about problems that have been festering for months. And the most important thing you can do in that moment is shut up and listen. Don’t try to defend the past. Don’t talk over them. Don’t promise you’re going to be so much better than the last person. Just let them get it all off their chest. Let them talk it out, because people like people who listen to them. Then, if there’s something specific you can help them with, don’t make promises you can’t keep. Commit to one thing. Take care of that commitment. Honor it. Build trust slowly. That’s how you become a high-value partner through fanatical prospecting discipline applied to account management. The Smart Way to Triage 50 Accounts You can’t effectively manage 50 accounts with equal attention, so you need to segment fast. Use a simple A, B, C ranking by revenue and risk: A Accounts: Your largest customers or those at highest risk of churn. These get weekly or bi-weekly touchpoints. B Accounts: Solid mid-tier customers with growth potential. These get monthly check-ins. C Accounts: Smaller accounts that are stable. These get quarterly touchpoints. But here’s the secret weapon most account managers miss: Use AI and your CRM data to find the low-hanging fruit. Look for patterns like former buyers who’ve moved to new companies in your territory, customers who mentioned specific challenges in past conversations, or accounts showing signs of expansion readiness. One of the smartest things you can do is ask your AI tools: “Did anyone on this account ever mention their favorite sports team? Do they like to cook? What matters to them personally?” Those human details are gold for building real relationships in sales. The Retention Secret Nobody Talks About Here’s what kills me about account management: Retention is actually easy. If you’re just nice to people, for the most part, they’re going to be nice to you. It doesn’t take grand gestures. It takes consistency. A random text message: “Hey, just thinking about you. How’s everything going?” A quick video message once a quarter checking in. Remembering to ask how their kids’ soccer season went. Sending them an article relevant to their business with a note: “Saw this and thought of you.” Human beings at the core just want to be understood and they want to feel important, like they matter. That’s it. That’s the whole game. Your 30-60-90 Day Stabilization Plan If you’re inheriting neglected accounts, here’s your action plan: Days 1-30: Triage and stabilize. Reach out to every A account with your honest, human approach. Listen more than you talk. Identify immediate fires to put out. Days 31-60: Earn the right to advise. Deliver on your initial commitments. Start providing value without asking for anything in return. Build familiarity and trust through effective sales communication. Days 61-90: Focus on expansion. Now that you’ve proven yourself, you can start identifying opportunities to grow these accounts. But not before. Don’t bite off more than you can chew. Build familiarity, then trust, then earn the opportunity to expand the business. The Bottom Line Stop treating your existing customers like an afterthought. They’re your easiest path to revenue growth, but only if you actually treat them like they matter. Account management isn’t complicated. It’s about being human, being consistent, and actually caring about the people who are already paying you money. So pick up the phone. Send that text. Schedule that coffee. Make the small investments in relationships that compound into massive retention and expansion wins. That’s how you turn neglected accounts into your most profitable relationships. That’s how you build a book of business that actually grows. And that’s how you stop losing customers you already have.

Welcome to Day 2779 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2779– The Prophet of the Most High – Luke 1:57-80 Putnam Church Message – 12/14/2025 Luke's Account of the Good News - “The Prophet of the Most High” Last week, we continued our year-long study of Luke's Narrative of the Good News in a message titled: “The Day Mary Met Gabriel.” – Peace in the Unexpected. This week is the third Sunday of Advent, which is Joy, as we continue to build anticipation of the coming Messiah. Today's passage is the story of: “The Prophet of the Most High.” Joy to the World - Our Core verses for this week will be Luke 1:57-80, found on page 1589 of your Pew Bibles. The Birth of John the Baptist 57 When it was time for Elizabeth to have her baby, she gave birth to a son. 58 Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they shared her joy. 59 On the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they were going to name him after his father Zechariah, 60 but his mother spoke up and said, “No! He is to be called John.” 61 They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who has that name.” 62 Then they made signs to his father, to find out what he would like to name the child. 63 He asked for a writing tablet, and to everyone's astonishment he wrote, “His name is John.” 64 Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue set free, and he began to speak, praising God. 65 All the neighbors were filled with awe, and throughout the hill country of Judea people were talking about all these things. 66 Everyone who heard this wondered about it, asking, “What then is this child going to be?” For the Lord's hand was with him. Zechariah's Song 67 His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied: 68 “Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come to his people and redeemed them. 69 He has raised up a horn> of salvation for us in the house of his servant David 70 (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago), 71 salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us— 72 to show mercy to our ancestors and to remember his holy covenant, 73 the oath he swore to our father Abraham: 74 to rescue us from the hand of our enemies, and to enable us to serve him without fear 75 in holiness and righteousness before him all our days. 76 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him, 77 to give his people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins, 78 because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven 79 to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of...

Send us fan responses! What if courts act like banks, your all-caps name functions as a business, and the real game is learning to contract on your terms? We got together with Dom Kalam and Equity Mac to unpack the mechanics behind status, standing, and identity—and how those mechanics shape everything from traffic tickets to taxes to titles. The conversation moves from first principles to practical tools: Black's Law Dictionary, UCC 1-308 to reserve rights, and the shift from a default sole proprietorship to layered structures like holding companies, private family trusts, and 508(c)(1)(A) ministries. The aim is simple: separate identity from liability, keep clean records, and operate in the private with clarity and competence.Ownership becomes the bridge between law and technology. We dig into equitable vs legal title, deeds and MSOs, and why “possession” isn't ownership if the paper says otherwise. Then we connect it to the next wave: blockchain, tokenization, and ISO 20022 payment rails like XRP and XLM. With the DTCC exploring tokenized settlement, assets from real estate to equities can be represented on-chain—transparent, portable, fast. That demands better governance: who holds the keys, who writes the bylaws, who benefits, and how disputes get resolved. “Not your keys, not your crypto” reads like a 21st-century lesson in title law.We also share tactics for navigating taxes and capital in a system built on contracts: lawful tax avoidance via structure, cash-flow lending that beats weak credit, inter-entity trade lines, and using arbitration or audits to fix records. The throughline is education by action—read primary sources, learn the language, document your rules, and practice. Whether you're setting up a trust, opening a crypto wallet, or preparing for tokenized titles, this conversation lays out a path to hold what you build with true control.If this helped you see the matrix behind money, subscribe, share with a friend, and drop a review.

The controversy around AI tool Grok dominated proceedings. Elsewhere the Mercosur trade deal sparked outrage. And government overspending was once more on the agenda this week at the Public Accounts Committee. Host: Tabitha Monahan Guest: Mary Regan See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Harry McGee, Ellen Coyne and Mark Paul join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:· The Minister with responsibility for artificial intelligence (AI), Niamh Smyth, met with executives from social media company X on Friday over concerns about their Grok app. The app has been in the headlines because of its ability to produce non-consensual intimate images. Current law bans sharing of intimate images but does not appear to criminalise generating them – what is the Government's next step?· The level of energy needed to power a data centre was laid bare this week. An internal Government document showed that a single facility in west Dublin consumes 10 times the electricity of a nearby pharmaceutical plant employing 2,000 people, equivalent to enough power for 200,000 homes.· And more ‘psychodrama' for the Tories this week as Robert Jenrick, the Conservative shadow justice secretary, defected to Nigel Farage's Reform UK after being sacked from the Conservative shadow cabinet.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· The US and Denmark battle for control of Greenland, Inside Politics veteran Jennifer Bray is releasing a book (and it's rather good), a reader's letter questions how dog-friendly we should be as a society, and who is next for Donald Trump's crosshairs?Would you like to receive daily insights into world events delivered to your inbox?

It's the New Year and a lot of us are looking for a clean slate. So if you've been thinking about starting a fresh social media account, this episode is for you! Here's the thing: a new account is not magically going to fix problems that live in your brand identity, in your messaging, in your positioning. You don't need a new account, you need a new approach. When you think a new account will save you, that's just avoidance disguised as strategy. You may be feeling like your account doesn't represent who you are now or you've got a case of algorithm resentment. People often suspect they've been "shadowbanned" when their content isn't performing. Unfortunately, the cost of starting over is you lose that built in trust. When you go over to a new account, you're not taking the majority of your audience with you. Plus, you're losing valuable data! You may not know what to do with the data you currently have, but you can learn and it can hugely benefit yourself and your audience. When you look at influencers and creators, they're rarely doing the same thing they were doing when they started their account. It's completely natural for your presence to evolve! The ONLY time you should switch your account is if you have a completely different niche. Like, I'm talking about a totally new business, not just a different vibe!

Welcome to Day 2774 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2774– The Day Mary Met Gabriel - Luke 1:26-56 Putnam Church Message – 12/07/2025 Luke's Account of the Good News - “The Day Mary Met Gabriel” Last week, we continued our year-long study of Luke's Narrative of the Good News in a message titled: “A Baby at our Age? Get Serious!” This week is the second Sunday of Advent, which is Peace, as we continue to build anticipation of the coming Messiah. Today's passage is the story of: “The Day Mary Met Gabriel.” – Peace in the Unexpected. Our Core verses for this week will be Luke 1:26-56, found on page 1588 of your Pew Bibles. The Birth of Jesus Foretold 26 In the sixth month of Elizabeth's pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, 27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin's name was Mary. 28 The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.” 29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. 30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. 31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over Jacob's descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.” 34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?” 35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called[b] the Son of God. 36 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month. 37 For no word from God will ever fail.” 38 “I am the Lord's servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her. Mary Visits Elizabeth 39 At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judea, 40 where she entered Zechariah's home and greeted Elizabeth. 41 When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. 42 In a loud voice she exclaimed: “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you will bear! 43 But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 44 As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. 45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!” Mary's Song 46...
Hosts: Mark Cardone & Theron Feidt The Concept: Most people hit Monday head-on without a plan, leading to "Monday Blues" and reactive living. In this episode, Mark and Theron break down the Sunday Summit—a 15 to 20-minute process to audit your past week and strategically architect your next one so you can hit the ground running. The 3-Step Sunday Summit Action Plan: Step 1: The Rear-View Mirror Review (The Audit) Before moving forward, you must clear the deck of the previous week. Open Loop Sweep: Review unfinished tasks, emails, and to-do lists. If you haven't finished everything, don't sweat it—prioritize what carries over. Celebrate the Wins: Acknowledge your accomplishments, from difficult work tasks to meaningful time with family. The Delete Button: Be ruthless. If a task has been carried over for three weeks, ask yourself: "Am I actually going to do this?" If not, delete it. Step 2: The Big Three Anchor Theron emphasizes the power of threes. Instead of a 20-item list, focus on the Big Rocks. Identify Non-Negotiables: Choose three "must-do" items for the week that move the needle on your long-term goals. Schedule the Big Rocks First: Use the jar analogy—put your big rocks in the calendar before the "sand" (busy work) fills up your time. The Domino Effect: Identify which of your big three will make the others easier. Task buddies allow one action (like a walk with a spouse) to hit multiple goals (health, communication, and relationship building). Step 3: Friction Removal (Tactical Logistics) Logistics and tactics are where the rubber meets the road. Pre-Decide the Details: Lay out your gym clothes or pack your vehicle the night before. "Decision fatigue kills willpower." Don't waste morning energy on trivial choices. Calendar Conflict Check: Sync your digital and paper calendars. Account for travel time and recurring "habit" appointments that you might have overlooked. The Monday Launch Pad: Define your exact first move for Monday morning. Don't start your day reacting to email or "Wordle." Know exactly what task you are hammering out the moment you sit down. Core Wisdom from the Show "If learning isn't changing how you act, decide, or perform—you didn't actually learn it. Information changes nothing; applied information changes everything." Immediate Action Items 1. Perform a Sunday Summit: Dedicate 20 minutes this Sunday to the 3-step audit. 2. Define Your First Move: What is the one thing you will do at 8:00 AM Monday? 3.

Over the weekend, The Kennedy Center director claimed his X account was hacked… and that’s why his original tweet announcing ITS decision to end its partnership with the Washington National Opera was taken down. Richard Grenell was not happy with the media headlines that all read the Opera was leaving the Kennedy Center, making it the biggest departure yet in a growing number of artists who have cancelled shows or boycotted the center under Trump’s leadership. Many have commented it appears Grenell has found another excuse to blame hackers and the media for the fallout from Trump’s takeover. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kohler dive deep into Trump accounts, a brand-new savings vehicle launching in 2026. Mat explains why he believes Trump accounts can be a powerful long-term wealth-building tool for kids, while Mark pushes back, arguing parents may be overlooking better options already available.Together, they break down how Trump accounts work, who they are best suited for, and how they compare to Coverdell ESAs, kids Roth IRAs, and 529 plans. The conversation covers college planning, trade schools, retirement savings, Roth conversions, and how families can stack multiple strategies based on income and goals.They also explain the biggest game changer of all: how Trump accounts convert into traditional IRAs at age 18 and can later be converted into Roth IRAs, potentially creating millions in tax-free retirement wealth for the next generation.Whether you are a parent, grandparent, or business owner looking to give kids a financial head start, this episode lays out practical strategies, pros and cons, and real-world planning considerations to help you decide what makes sense for your family.Chapters:0:08 – Welcome And Topic Reveal0:48 – Politics Aside: Use The Law3:52 – What A Trump Account Is6:20 – Control Limits And Fee Cautions6:24 – College Needs vs Long-Term Wealth9:10 – How Early Withdrawals Actually Work12:02 – Parent Playbook: Stack The Accounts18:56 – Pay Your Kids Through Business21:07 – Rentals As A Small Business22:06 – The Roth Conversion Strategy24:20 – 529 To Roth: Sister Strategy26:18 – Pro Rata Rules And Math28:20 – The 8.8 Million Illustration29:55 – Mindset, Access To Education, ClosingDirected IRA Homepage: https://directedira.com/ Directed IRA Explore (Linktree): https://linktr.ee/SelfDirectedIRA Book a Call: https://directedira.com/appointment/ Other:Mat Sorensen: https://matsorensen.com & https://linktr.ee/MatSorensen KKOS: https://kkoslawyers.comMain Street Business https://mainstreetbusiness.com

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Our week in review examines the Brendan Banfield case — where digital forensics contradicted the prosecution's theory and two investigators were moved off the case.On February 24, 2023, Christine Banfield — a 37-year-old pediatric ICU nurse — was stabbed to death in her Herndon, Virginia home. Found beside her was Joseph Ryan, a 39-year-old stranger shot twice by two different guns. The initial story was self-defense against an intruder. Prosecutors say that's a lie. They allege Brendan Banfield created a fake FetLife profile using his wife's photo, spent months luring Ryan to the house under the pretense of a violent sexual fantasy, then conspired with the family's au pair to stage a home invasion and murder his wife.But the prosecution's own digital forensics expert reached a different conclusion. Officer Brendan Miller analyzed 60 devices and determined Christine — not Brendan — appeared to be running that FetLife account. His findings were peer-reviewed by the University of Alabama and confirmed. Miller was subsequently transferred out of digital forensics. The lead homicide detective who reportedly disagreed with command staff's direction was also moved.Defense attorney John Carroll called the prosecution's case "a theory in search of facts rather than a series of facts supporting a theory." Judge Penney Azcarate ordered prosecutors to produce communications related to those transfers.The case now hinges on Juliana Peres Magalhaes, who spent nearly a year facing murder charges before changing her story. Her plea deal: time served and deportation to Brazil in exchange for testimony against Banfield. Trial is January 2026. The jury will decide who was really behind the keyboard.#BrendanBanfield #ChristineBanfield #JulianaPeresMagalhaes #FairfaxCounty #DigitalForensics #AuPairMurder #FetLife #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #WeekInReviewJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Included among the provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed into law by President Donald Trump on July 4th of last year, is something called a Trump Account. This is an investment account that all American kids are eligible for—and very notably—any American child born after Jan. 1, 2025, is eligible to receive a $1000 thousand dollar deposit into their account.This is money that is not taxable; it's not a loan, meaning you don't have to pay it back, and also, because of the type of account that it is (an investment account that the child can't touch until he's 18) by the time your child is ready to take the money out, that $1,000 dollars might have grown substantially.If the market continued to have the same historical returns that it typically does—8 percent or 10 percent a year—it means that by the time your child is 18, they will have an account with as much as $6,000 in it. And by the time they're 28, that account could have upwards of $28,000 dollars in it. Meaning, that this is a fairly good opportunity, and something that you should definitely not miss.
Is the government really giving kids $1,000… or is there a bigger catch? In this solo episode of Without the Bank (WTB), Mary Jo breaks down the Invest America Act (sometimes called the "Trump Account") and explains why she believes it raises serious red flags, from misleading claims by politicians to hidden tax consequences and stock market manipulation.
How does the account compare to other plans like Ohio's "529 Plan," and other financial plans for children in the United States?
How to Trade Stocks and Options Podcast by 10minutestocktrader.com
Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.This one is a wild but important lesson, especially if you trade options or have ever been tempted by “easy” premium. In this video, we break down how an options trader managed to blow up $50 million on Christmas Eve using short-term iron condors. It sounds insane, but once you see how it happened step by step, it starts to make uncomfortable sense.The strategy looked great on the surface. High win rate. Fast payouts. Trades that could make money if the market went up, down, or sideways. That's the hook. And it's exactly why so many traders get pulled into selling short-term options without fully understanding what's lurking underneath.What really caused the damage wasn't one bad trade. It was what happened after. Losses led to bigger size. Bigger size led to narrower profit windows. Volatility dropped. Risk quietly exploded. And by the time the market made a totally normal move, the account was already cornered with nowhere to go.This video walks through why win rate can be one of the most dangerous metrics in trading, especially when risk and reward are out of balance. You'll see how collecting small premiums while risking larger losses creates a slow-motion disaster. Everything looks fine until suddenly it isn't.We also dig into why martingale-style thinking is so dangerous in options. Doubling down feels logical when you believe the market “has to” revert. But options expire. Time runs out. And markets don't care what feels fair. When volatility compresses and you keep forcing trades, you're not increasing your odds. You're just speeding up the inevitable.Here are some of the big takeaways covered in this breakdown:✅ Why a high win rate can still lead to massive losses✅ How iron condors quietly become more dangerous as volatility drops✅ The hidden risk of selling premium in calm markets✅ Why martingale position sizing fails in real markets✅ How small, normal market moves can wipe out oversized option positionsOne of the most important themes in this video is restraint. Sometimes the smartest move is doing nothing. Sitting in cash isn't boring. It's disciplined. A lot of traders blow up not because they're reckless, but because they feel pressured to always be in a trade, even when conditions are stacked against them.This isn't about dunking on anyone. It's about learning from a very expensive mistake so you don't have to repeat it. If you trade options, or you're thinking about selling premium because it looks “safe,” this is a must-watch lesson in how risk actually behaves.If this helps you slow down, rethink position sizing, or avoid forcing trades when volatility is low, then it's done its job. Share it with someone who needs to hear this before the market teaches the lesson the hard way.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

Welcome to Day 2769 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2769– A Baby at Our Age - Get Serious! Luke 1:5-25 Putnam Church Message – 11/30/2025 Luke's Account of the Good News “A Baby at our Age? Get Serious!” – First Sunday of Advent Last week, we began a year-long study of Luke's Narrative of the Good News in a message titled: “Only the Best -A Gospel of Excellence: Thanksgiving for the Truth.” This week is the first Sunday of Advent as we build anticipation of the coming Messiah. Today's passage is the beginning of a story titled: “A Baby at our Age? Get Serious!” “HOPE IN THE SILENCE — GOD STILL SPEAKS” Our Core verses for this week will be Luke 1:5-25, found on page 1587 of your Pew Bibles. The Birth of John the Baptist Foretold 5 In the time of Herod king of Judea there was a priest named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah; his wife Elizabeth was also a descendant of Aaron. 6 Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, observing all the Lord's commands and decrees blamelessly. 7 But they were childless because Elizabeth was not able to conceive, and they were both very old. 8 Once when Zechariah's division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God, 9 he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to go into the temple of the Lord and burn incense. 10 And when the time for the burning of incense came, all the assembled worshipers were praying outside. 11 Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing at the right side of the altar of incense. 12 When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and was gripped with fear. 13 But the angel said to him: “Do not be afraid, Zechariah; your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call him John. 14 He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice because of his birth, 15 for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He is never to take wine or other fermented drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit even before he is born. 16 He will bring back many of the people of Israel to the Lord their God. 17 And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the parents to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.” 18 Zechariah asked the angel, “How can I be sure of this? I am an old man and my wife is well along in years.” 19 The angel said to him, “I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news. 20 And now you will be silent and not able to speak until the day this happens, because you did not believe my words, which will come true at their appointed time.” 21 Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he stayed so long in the temple. 22 When he came out, he could not speak to them. They realized he had seen a vision in the temple, for he kept making signs to them but...

In this latest edition of The Epstein Files Unsealed we get a look at the sworn statement and recorded interviews of a teenage girl who became entangled in Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking operation after being recruited by another minor, identified in the records as “Haley.” The girl initially described being told she was simply going along to collect money and go shopping, with no clear explanation of what would occur. She recounted being taken to Epstein's Palm Beach home, passing through security, and being left alone upstairs with Epstein after Haley remained downstairs. Under pressure and confusion, she was instructed to undress and give Epstein a massage, during which he masturbated and made sexually explicit comments. She was then paid $300 and sent away, with Epstein acting casually afterward and encouraging her to return. The girl's testimony shows she did not understand the full nature of what was expected of her until she was already isolated and in the situation, a pattern consistent with grooming and coercion rather than informed consent.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein Part 08 (Redacted).pdf
Revenge trading is one of the most destructive habits in trading, and most traders don't even realize when they're doing it. Let's discuss 3 methods for curing this problem.

Another Epstein Files mystery solved. The reason the DOJ Official Social Media Accounts is suddenly, over night, preemptively CLEARING Trump of any wrongdoing related to his name in the latest tranche of Epstein Files, and calling all HIS documents but no others, “baseless” and “sensationalist” is because TRUMP and his White House have taken control of the DOJ social media accounts, according to new reporting. Michael Popok explains how the Trump DOJ and FBI could not possibly have conducted the required years long criminal investigations, including about purported “fake” Epstein letters pointing the finger at Trump, in 24 hours, and questions why no other person mentioned in the files is being similarly “cleared” and exonerated, including the Democrats inside the files.
