The Trump administration has created an incentive for Americans to have more children within the next three years. Any baby born between Jan. 1, 2025, and Dec. 31, 2028, is eligible for $1,000 of seed money in a tax-advantaged investment account known as a “Trump Accounts,” though any parent with a child under 18 can open an account for their son or daughter. The account operates similarly to an IRA, and parents, relatives, and friends can contribute up to $5,000 annually, though they do not have to make regular contributions. “Your child's funds will automatically be invested in American companies,” according to the Trump Accounts website. When the child turns 18, they can either allow the account to continue to grow, or they can withdraw the funds for education costs or to purchase a home. If the maximum amount is contributed to the account annually from the time the child is born, the account will have grown to over $270,000 by the child's 18th birthday. Between the rapid increase in the cost of living over the past 20 years, and many young people in debt with student loans, true financial freedom is a distant dream for many in their 20s and 30s, but “Trump Accounts” could change that for the next generation. If Americans take advantage of the program to its full extent, Generation Alpha, born between 2010 and 2024, and Beta, born between 2025 and 2039, can hope to avoid the financial situation many millennials and Gen Z young people find themselves in today. On this week's edition of “Problematic Women,” we discuss the potential financial and political implications of Trump Accounts. Plus, we celebrate the day of love and romance with our favorite hot takes on Valentine's Day. Enjoy the show! Trump Unveils New Initiatives to Bring Real Food to Americans Robert F.

What does it truly take to build generational wealth that endures for decades? While many families rely on traditional strategies like 401(k)s, IRAs, stocks, and real estate to grow and transfer wealth, few are aware of a time-tested strategy quietly used by affluent families for more than 200 years. In this episode of the Private Banking Strategies Podcast, Vance Lowe and Seth Hicks walk through a real-life inspired case study showing how families can create a private family banking system designed to grow wealth, improve cash flow, and maintain financial control. Learn how one family strategically plans for college funding, business opportunities for their children, and a tax-efficient legacy — all while protecting their capital from market volatility, inflation, and traditional banking limitations.

Buy Our Simplified Budget System Now!Hey budget besties — today we're hanging out with Jamie (Twin Cities, MN!) to talk about what it actually looked like to go from “shooting from the hip and hoping for the best” to having a real plan, real peace, and real progress.Jamie and her husband Kevin have been together since they were teenagers (married 23+ years), and like a lot of us, they weren't raised with money skills modeled clearly. They'd do “a program” for a while, fall out of rhythm, and then drift back into chaos. Add in big-life curveballs (home repairs, medical stuff, kids getting older, college around the corner), and it hit a breaking point: the stress and uncertainty started feeling too expensive to ignore.So they brought in coaching — and everything changed.Let's Take Our Relationship To The Next Level:1️⃣ Facebook Group ➡︎ budgetbesties.com/facebook2️⃣ Be on the Podcast ➡︎ budgetbesties.com/livecall3️⃣ Private 1-on-1 Coaching. ➡︎ budgetbesties.com/coachingThis podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not personal financial, legal, or tax advice.This description may contain affiliate links, meaning we may get a commission at no cost to you if you click & purchase.Click here to view our privacy policy.

Steve Bannon has consistently downplayed his proximity to Jeffrey Epstein, but the available reporting and documented overlaps suggest that distance was more rhetorical than real. Bannon was not some passing acquaintance who brushed shoulders once at a cocktail party; he moved in the same elite donor, media, and political-adjacent circles Epstein inhabited for years. Epstein's well-established habit was to embed himself where influence was forming—think tanks, political strategists, financial power brokers—and Bannon fit squarely inside that ecosystem. Accounts placing Epstein around figures close to Bannon, and Bannon's own shifting explanations about the depth of those interactions, raise red flags. When someone spends years insisting a relationship was “minimal,” yet the surrounding evidence keeps surfacing, it invites a basic question: what exactly is being minimized, and why?That question becomes far more consequential when you consider what Bannon's role meant in relation to Donald Trump. As a senior strategist and gatekeeper during a critical phase of Trump's rise, Bannon was not just another advisor—he was a conduit to power. If Epstein had meaningful access to Bannon, even intermittently, it naturally raises concerns about whether Epstein gained proximity to Trump's orbit through that channel. Epstein specialized in leveraging intermediaries, not necessarily meeting principals directly, and Bannon would have been an exceptionally valuable node in that network. The issue isn't whether Epstein and Trump sat down together because of Bannon; it's whether Epstein had insight, influence, or soft access to a future president via someone who was shaping strategy and messaging at the highest level. That possibility alone undercuts years of casual dismissals and forces a harder reckoning with how close Epstein may have been to the machinery of American political power.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Today, Paul and Evan answer a listener's questions about Trump Accounts and how the investments get managed. Listen along as the two advisors cover the restrictions on investments, the low contribution limits, and the tax implications of using one of these accounts to invest for minors. Then they pivot to a question about a possible rule change to the order in which you can make retirement and catch-up contributions. After the break, Paul discusses how adding private equity investments to your portfolio puts your future in the hands of companies that don't have to provide basic reports about the health of their business.

In July, American parents will be eligible to open Trump Accounts on behalf of their children. The administration touts these investment accounts as a way to help the next generation achieve the American dream. But are they the best way to save for college, home-ownership or retirement? And who stands to benefit most? On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg’s Ben Steverman walks host Sarah Holder through the advantages — and criticisms — of this new program. Plus, economist Darrick Hamilton, whose federal “baby bonds” proposal inspired the Trump Accounts, weighs in on the immediate and long-term impacts the accounts could have on families and on the US economy.

2 Plattformen, 4 Klagen: Ist TikTok ein rechtswidriges Geschäftsmodell? Verfolgt TikTok seine Nutzer nicht nur innerhalb der eigenen Plattform, sondern auch darüber hinaus, um umfassende Verhaltens- und Persönlichkeitsprofile für Werbe- und andere kommerzielle Zwecke zu erstellen? Geschieht das im Verborgenen, ohne dass sich die Betroffenen der Tragweite dieser Datenverarbeitung bewusst sind? Gefährdet TikTok bewusst und systematisch Kinder und Jugendliche? Ist die App bewusst so gestaltet, dass sie süchtig macht? Klares "ja" aus einer Kanzlei, die gerade TikTok - und X - verklagt. Diesmal geht es also nicht um Klagen eines Einzelnen auf Löschung diffamierender Beiträge, Löschung von Fake-Accounts oder auf Freischaltung zu Unrecht gesperrter Accounts. Das hier, Leute, ist größer. Richtig groß. Und natürlich lasse ich mir für Euch aus erster Hand erklären, was es mit den Klagen auf sich hat. Und niemand könnte das besser, als Peter Hense, Partner einer Kanzlei mit digitaler DNA, Spirit Legal. Peter erläutert nicht nur die Klagen, sondern gibt auch einen Überblick über die Regulierung im Rest der Welt. Wusstet Ihr, dass die "Schwester-App" in China ziemlich krassen Jugendschutz implementiert hat? Dort sind Kinder schützenswert. Und in Europa?

It's Q&A Wednesday: You ask 'em, we'll answer—and today's episode covers the questions investors actually wrestle with when markets get noisy. Lance Roberts & Danny Ratliff start with a preview of upcoming economic reports and what recent data may be signaling about slowing growth and the next bout of market volatility. From there, we dig into real portfolio decisions—especially for investors heading into retirement—including how to think about allocation changes, managing risk, and avoiding the behavioral traps that derail long-term outcomes. Lance & Danny also hit the big evergreen topics: recency bias, whether there's truly a "one stock to own forever," what buffered ETFs do (and don't) protect you from, and the mechanics behind the bond yield / interest-rate relationship. We also tackle timely portfolio choices like metals, tax-deferred vs. taxable accounts, seasonality, foreign currency trades, and how to invest in individual bonds. We wrap with practical tradeoffs around high-yield savings, the reality of beating the market consistently, and a broader discussion on growth modeling—plus a curveball question: Is AI going to take our jobs? 0:00 - INTRO 0:19 - Economic Reports Preview: More Weakness? 4:59 - Markets Do What They Do - More Volatility? 11:04 - How Should I Change My Portfolio Going Into Retirement? 17:48 - Dealing with Recency Bias 21:04 - The One Stock to Own Forever 24:20 - The Thing About Buffered ETF's 28:19 - Inverse Relationship Between Bond Yields vs Interest Rates 34:10 - Metals: Selling Today? 35:50 - Tax-deferred vs Taxable brokerage Accounts 39:16 - Using Seasonality When Investing 40:48 - Dealing with Foreign Currency Trades 44:00 - How to Invest in Individual Bonds? 47:01 - The Pro's & Con's of High Yield Savings 48:11 - Do You Consistently Beat the Market? 53:36 - Defining Magnitude and Modeling Growth 55:31 - Is AI Going to Take Our Jobs?

A product of the “Big Beautiful Bill,” Trump Accounts give American children — sorry, illegal aliens, this one is for us — a “tremendous” financial head start on life, providing the means to pay for college or put a down payment on a home, along with exposure to equities, something roughly 1 in 3 Americans currently do not have. If you make the maximum annual contribution of $5,000 to a Trump Account, it could be worth: At age 18: $300,000 At age 28: $800,000 At age 55: $10 million All courtesy of the power of compounding returns, argues Heritage Foundation Chief Economist E.J. Antoni in this special video commentary.
It's a beautiful phrase, compound interest. And that's what Trump Accounts are built on. Economist Stephen Moore shares how he actually suggested this same principle as a way to fix Social Security.
-On Friday, New York State Senators Liz Krueger and Kristen Gonzales introduced a bill that would stop the issuance of permits for new data centers for at least three years and ninety days to give time for impact assessments and to update regulations. -Apple is gearing up for a slew of hardware announcements that will include upgrades for the entry-level iPad, iPad Air, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, according to Mark Gurman's Power On newsletter. -Lyft has officially introduced teen accounts for ages 13 to 17.

You’ve got a champion. Someone inside the account who gets it. They love your solution, they’re fighting for your proposal, and they’re feeding you intelligence about the decision-making process. So you’re golden, right? Wrong. One reorganization, one promotion, one departure, and your deal could vanish overnight. Research from LinkedIn Sales Solutions analyzed thousands of enterprise deals and found something most salespeople refuse to believe: sales teams that build relationships with multiple stakeholders inside an account are 34% more likely to win. That’s the difference between hitting quota and missing it. Between a banner year and a brutal one. Why Single-Threaded Deals Die On average, 4-7 people influence a complex B2B buying decision. Even if you nail the pitch, you’re still just one voice in a conversation happening behind closed doors. A conversation where people you’ve never met are raising objections you’ll never hear. Where priorities you don’t know about are shifting the criteria. Your champion can be dismissed as “the person who likes that vendor.” But when you’ve got three advocates from different departments? Consensus wins deals. Your Champion Won’t Stick Around One in five of the people you’re counting on right now won’t be in their role twelve months from now. They’ll get promoted, reassigned, poached by a competitor, or laid off in the next restructuring. When that happens to your sole contact, your deal doesn’t just stall. It dies. The new person in that role has zero relationship with you, zero context on your solution, and zero incentive to champion something their predecessor started. But if you’ve built what top performers call “account insulation”—relationships with two, three, or four people across different departments and levels—the web flexes when someone leaves. It doesn’t break. Weak Ties Matter More Than You Think We’re trained to go deep with our primary contact. Build trust. Understand their pain points. Tailor every message to their specific needs. That’s not wrong. It’s just incomplete. In complex selling scenarios, influence often spreads through what researchers call weak ties—the casual, adjacent connections that link clusters of strong relationships. These are your amplifiers. A brief introduction. A shared article. A helpful insight that makes someone in operations remember your name when your solution comes up in a meeting you’re not in. These loose connections become the difference between a deal that stalls and one that scales. Think about how deals from referrals close. They close twice as fast as deals that start cold. Accounts with multiple contacts grow larger, stay longer, and refer more business. The pattern is clear. Get enough internal referrals, and you stop being the vendor someone works with. You become the partner everyone trusts. Five Mistakes That Keep You Single-Threaded Account multithreading fails most often before it ever really begins. Not because it is hard, but because salespeople sabotage it with impatience, poor judgment, or misplaced effort. If you recognize any of these behaviors, they are costing you leverage inside the account. Trying to build fifty superficial relationships instead of multiple deep, meaningful connections. Spray and pray doesn’t work in prospecting, and it doesn’t work in account multithreading. Asking for referrals before you’ve built credibility. You can’t extract value before you’ve created it. Failing to nurture the relationships you’ve already initiated. You can’t plant seeds and never water them. Ignoring the law of reciprocity. If you don’t offer value first—business insights, useful data, relevant introductions—people won’t feel any obligation to help you. You’ll burn through goodwill and get nothing back. Wearing out your welcome. If you’ve reached out multiple times with relevant insights and gotten silence, that’s a signal. Move on. How to Build Your Account Web With Multi-Threading Start by mapping the web of people connected to your account. Decision makers, influencers, skeptics, the quiet analysts whose opinions shape what the decision makers think. Write it down. Visualize the relationships you have, the ones you need, and the blank spaces in between. Then ask questions that open doors and show you recognize the decision is bigger than one person. “Who else on your team would have a point of view on this?” “Would it be helpful if I shared what other departments are doing with similar tools?” “Is there someone else who should see this?” Or use my favorite: “I need your advice on this.” That phrase invokes reciprocity and dramatically increases the probability they’ll give you the referral. When trust is formed, asking for a direct referral becomes an act of generosity rather than an intrusion. Frame it around value, not obligation. “Would you be willing to introduce me to your colleague in operations? I think she’d have an interesting take on what we’re talking about.” “If anyone else on your team might benefit from this, would you mind sharing my name?” People say yes far more often than you think when you ask this way. The Quiet Chorus That Closes Deals The more people who trust you, the faster and further your message travels inside the account. You’ve got accounts in your pipeline right now sitting on a single thread. One job change, and that deal you’ve been nursing for months vanishes overnight. Stop searching for the one perfect contact. Start building a small community inside every account. It’s not a single voice that carries your deal through. It’s three voices in three different departments saying the same thing about you when you’re not in the room. Protect Your Pipeline with Discipline Account multithreading isn’t complicated, but it requires discipline and a shift in how you approach relationship-building. If you’re ready to protect your pipeline, increase your win rate by 34%, and build accounts that grow instead of churn, start mapping your key accounts today. Identify the blank spaces. Ask better questions. Build the web before you need it. Ready to close more deals? Explore Keith Lubner’s courses on Sales Gravy University.

Kamala Harris drops her “big announcement” — relaunching her old HQ as a youth organizing hub (more failed Democrat energy). Trailer drop for the new Michael Jackson documentary.

In this joint episode with the Personal Financial Planning (PFP) podcast, hosts Cary Sinnett, CPF, CAP, CFT-1, CExP, and April Walker, CPA, CGMA, Senior Manager — AICPA & CIMA, are joined by is joined by Sebrina Ivey, CPA/PFS to explore Trump accounts, also known as Sec. 530A accounts. These accounts are a new tax-advantaged savings vehicle for children created under H.R 1, P.L. 119-21, the law known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). The episode focuses on what CPAs need to know now to advise families on coordinating these accounts with broader tax, estate and financial plans. NOTE: Gift tax return/GST tax return requirements for contributions to a Trump Account: At this time, Treasury and the IRS have not provided guidance under Sec. 530A clarifying that contributions to Trump Accounts are considered a completed gift of a present interest in property eligible for the annual gift tax exclusion ($19,000 per recipient for 2026 gifts). Without further guidance, it appears any contribution to a Trump Account will be considered a taxable gift of a future interest and therefore subject to both gift and GST tax — effectively reducing a taxpayers' federal estate tax lifetime exclusion ($15M for deaths occurring in 2026). What you'll learn from this episode: What Trump Accounts are and how they fit alongside 529s, Roth IRAs and custodial accounts Understand who can contribute and how much to Trump Accounts Key contribution, investment and compliance rules for these accounts How to plan ahead for key transition points Resources Trump Accounts under Sec. 530A — Timeline and insights IRS Trump Accounts IRS Notice 2025-68 Keep your finger on the pulse of the dynamic and evolving tax landscape with insights from tax thought leaders in the AICPA Tax Section.

When Bureaucracy Kills You on Paper and the 1906 exorcism of Clara Germana Cele. What if you woke up one morning and discovered the government had already buried you—on paper? In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro explore the quietly terrifying phenomenon of bureaucratic death: real cases in which living people were officially declared dead due to clerical errors, missing-person rulings, or database failures—and then found it nearly impossible to prove they were alive again. Bank accounts frozen. Benefits canceled. Identities erased. All because a system designed for finality has no process for resurrection. From Social Security records that spread like digital wildfire to court rulings that insist you missed the deadline to object to your own death, this story exposes the absurd and Kafkaesque consequences of modern bureaucracy. We look at documented cases including men who stood in court, breathing and speaking, while judges acknowledged their physical existence—yet refused to reverse their legal death. Then, just when you think reality has regained its footing, we pivot into one of the most chilling possession cases on record: the 1906 exorcism of Clara Germana Cele, a young orphan raised in a South African mission school. Accounts describe violent behavior, alleged levitation, sudden fluency in multiple languages, and a prolonged exorcism sanctioned by the Catholic Church. But viewed through a modern lens, the story raises unsettling questions about trauma, power, colonialism, and what happens when fear becomes doctrine. Is possession supernatural—or is it what happens when vulnerable people are given no language for their suffering? As always, we separate documented facts from speculation, explore credible historical sources, and sit comfortably in the discomfort where certainty breaks down. Also included: dangerously compassionate lizard-warming strategies, the unexpected poetry of snowplow names, and the reminder that sometimes the scariest thing in the room isn't a demon—it's a system that refuses to see you. Because being alive, it turns out, is not always enough. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Have you ever fallen victim to a RAT attack? No, not the furry kind, a Remote Access Trojan attack. I'm discussing how cybercriminals use social engineering to target victims, and the real-world impact these threats can have on your investment accounts and personal information. I reveal the latest tactics scammers use, and, most importantly, offer practical tips to help you recognize warning signs, safeguard your accounts, and minimize your risk, whether you're an individual managing your retirement nest egg or a business owner overseeing company assets. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] What is a RAT attack? [02:45] Avoid clicking unknown links. [06:28] Preventing fraud through active monitoring. [09:44] Enhancing network security strategies. [10:48] Tips for staying secure online. The Escalating Threat of RAT Attacks There are an estimated 2,200 cyberattacks every day, or one every 39 seconds. Global financial damages from cybercrime are projected to rise from $9.5 trillion (2024) to an estimated $10.5 trillion in 2025. It's no longer a matter of if, but when, the next attack will happen. How a RAT Attack Unfolds Most RAT attacks begin with "social engineering", that is, psychological manipulation designed to get you to act against your best interest. This can look like an email or text from what appears to be a trusted company (think Schwab, Amazon, or EZ Pass), urging you to click a link or download an attachment. Do not click these links or download unknown files, even if the message creates a sense of urgency or familiarity. Even a simple PDF can be the Trojan horse that installs malware without you noticing. Once delivered, the RAT malware quietly installs itself, evading your detection. It can come bundled with software downloads, or even through "drive-by" downloads, just visiting a compromised website can infect your device without any clicking at all. More Than Just a Headache Recently, cybercriminals hacked a client's phone and attempted to transfer money from their investment account. Because my team actively monitors accounts and receives real-time alerts from Schwab, we caught the fraudulent activity before funds were lost. But not everyone is so lucky, if hackers compromise your credentials and accounts aren't closely watched, money could be transferred out, leaving you to face a lengthy investigation to recover your hard-earned savings. Simple Habits for Preventing Attacks Most successful attacks don't involve sophisticated hacking, they leverage human error. Train yourself (and if you're a business owner, your staff) to recognize phishing emails and suspicious texts. Verify unexpected requests directly with the company, never through the provided links. Lock Down Access Implement "least privilege" access, using strong, unique passwords and two-factor authentication for every account. For investment platforms and email, enable notifications for any account activity, so you're alerted instantly to suspicious changes. Secure remote connections with a Virtual Private Network (VPN) and avoid unsecured public Wi-Fi. If you must work remotely, use your cell phone's secure hotspot rather than free Wi-Fi at a coffee shop. And never log on to bank or brokerage accounts on shared or public networks. Monitor and Layer Security Constant vigilance is your shield. Regularly monitor account activity and set up a system of alerts. Layer your security by combining access controls, firewalls, and regular updates. Always verify new contacts or software installations, adopt a "zero trust" mindset: trust, but always verify. Stay One Step Ahead No single solution can prevent all RAT attacks, but a combination of awareness, good digital habits, and layered security makes a world of difference. Being informed is your best defense. Activate two-factor authentication, review your notifications and account alerts, and approach every digital interaction with a healthy dose of skepticism.
