Public dollars. Private schools. Political firestorms. In this episode, Kevin talks with long-time school choice advocate John Schilling about what happens when education funding follows the student instead of the system. They dig into the proposed federal scholarship tax credit: what it is, who it helps, and why supporters say it's about opportunity—not ideology. Opponents fear it's the beginning of the end for public schools. Advocates say it's already helping students, especially those in underserved communities. From Florida's model programs to Washington's sharp divisions, this conversation reveals how political will, policy design, and real family needs are shaping the future of school choice. If education is supposed to be about students, then maybe the money should be too. This might be what you want to know.

Tilden Moschetti, an investment fund and syndication attorney, discussed Regulation D (Reg D) exemptions for raising capital. Reg D allows unlimited funds from accredited investors without advertising, with 98% of deals using it. Rule 506(b) allows non-accredited investors, while Rule 506(c) requires accredited investor verification. Accredited investors must earn $200K annually or have $1 million in net worth. Moschetti emphasized the importance of communication to mitigate risks and maintain investor trust. He noted that only 1-2% of cases lead to legal action if proper documentation is in place. His firm's turnaround time for Reg D filings is two weeks. https://www.moschettilaw.com/

In this episode, the Payments Professor, Kevin Olsen, speaks with Ashley Mustico from Nacha about the AAP (Accredited ACH Professional) accreditation. They discuss the importance of the AAP in the electronic payments industry, the journey into electronic payments, the benefits of obtaining the AAP for both individuals and organizations, the format and preparation for the AAP exam, and what to do after passing the exam, including maintaining the accreditation. The conversation emphasizes the value of education and professional development in the payments industry. Takeaways: Nacha governs the ACH network and offers accreditations. The AAP accreditation signifies expertise in the ACH network. Individuals should pursue AAP after gaining at least two years of payment experience. Getting an AAP can enhance career prospects and salary. Organizations benefit from having AAPs on staff for compliance and risk management. The AAP exam consists of 120 multiple-choice questions, with 100 scored. Candidates can find out if they passed the exam on the same day. Preparation through Payments Associations significantly increases the chances of passing. Continuing education is required to maintain AAP accreditation every five years. Celebrating the achievement of AAP is essential for personal and professional growth.
