Podcasts about Accumulation

In this episode we answer emails from Anonymous from New Jersey, James, and Brad.  We answer a donor's six-part retirement plan, from mortgages and liquidity to 403(b) constraints, ETF trading, asset location, asset swaps, and tax‑savvy withdrawals. Then we discuss the risks of staying in an accumulation portfolio for too long and the options for obviating a crash before transitioning. And THEN we our go through our weekly portfolio reviews of the eight sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.Additional Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page:  Donate - Father McKenna CenterHow To Do An Asset Swap Video from Risk Parity Chronicles:  How to Do an Asset SwapTax Planning Book:  Amazon.com: Tax Planning To and Through Early Retirement: 9798999841599: Garrett, Cody, Mullaney, Sean: BooksBreathless AI-Bot Summary:Ever wonder whether paying down a mortgage before retirement is actually the safest move? We make the counterintuitive case for liquidity first: keep cash flexible during the messy early retirement years, when housing changes, college timelines, and new expenses collide. With a real listener case study, we show how a mortgage can be a tool, not a trap—and why you can always accelerate later once the dust settles.From there we dig into a pain point for many educators and nonprofit pros: weak 403(b) lineups. We break down why insurance-driven menus lag, how to advocate for better providers and funds, and when it makes sense to roll to an IRA for full control. You'll also learn how to keep tracking simple, why monthly check‑ins beat daily dashboards, and how consolidating at a service‑oriented custodian streamlines everything. On execution, we explain why ETFs beat mutual funds for rebalancing speed and precision, plus how to convert Vanguard mutual funds to ETFs without tax surprises.Taxes and withdrawals get the spotlight too. We clarify asset location—shelter ordinary income, let capital appreciation work in brokerage and Roth—and outline “asset swaps” that let you sell what's up while managing tax impact. For those still accumulating, we talk strategy for a smoother glide into a risk parity portfolio to reduce sequence risk, and the trade-offs between earlier protection and maximum growth. We wrap with a market scoreboard across stocks, bonds, gold, REITs, commodities, preferreds, and managed futures, and report on sample portfolios including Golden Butterfly, Golden Ratio, Ultimate, and leveraged variants.If you value actionable, no-nonsense guidance for DIY investors, you'll find ideas you can use right away—whether you're five years from retirement or still building your base. Subscribe, leave a review, and share this with a friend who's wrestling with 403(b) choices or planning a tax-smart withdrawal strategy.Support the show

In this Australian Retirement Podcast episode, your hosts Drew Meredith, from Wattle Partners, and James O'Reilly, from Northeast Wealth tackle one of the most complex parts of Australian retirement planning: the superannuation tax system. How many different tax rates apply to super? The answer might shock you - it's around 20 different rates, depending on your situation! Drew and James break down every tax that can hit your superannuation at different stages: – Contributing to super: From the standard 15% contributions tax to Division 293's extra 15% for high earners – Growing your super: Investment earnings, capital gains, and the new Division 296 tax on balances above $3 million – Accessing your super: The zero-rate sweet spot after 60, and the traps if you access it earlier – Leaving super behind: Death benefit taxes that can hit your beneficiaries with rates up to 32% Plus, in the opening banter, James shares stories from his Disney cruise weekend and the eye-watering cost of Oasis concert tickets.

Most retirees don't realize that the strategies that served them well for 30–40 years of saving can work against them the moment they stop working. In this episode, Brian Decker and Arrin Wray break down why accumulation and distribution require two completely different approaches—and why misunderstanding that distinction can jeopardize your retirement. Brian explains: Why market losses in retirement are far more damaging than losses during your working years How drawing income from fluctuating accounts accelerates losses and compromises long-term results Why bond funds haven't acted as “safe money” in today's rate environment—and the interest-rate risk most retirees overlook What makes the 4% rule unreliable in flat or volatile market cycles How momentum strategies and dividend sleeves fit into a modern risk-reduction plan Why your asset mix should flip at retirement—with only 25–35% of assets exposed to market risk How a laddered, principal-guaranteed income plan provides stability, clarity, and true distribution discipline You'll also hear how Decker Retirement Planning builds math-based distribution plans, updates them annually, and helps retirees maximize net-of-tax income while minimizing exposure to unnecessary risk and fees. If you're within 5–10 years of retirement—or already retired—this episode will give you a clearer picture of what a real retirement plan should look like.

Strong Economy and Rate Cuts — Elizabeth Peek — Peek documents that the U.S. economy remains robustly strong, with aggregate consumer spending outpacing inflation rate accumulation, indicating sustained purchasing power and economic vitality. Peek acknowledges that labor market sentiment remains weak despite aggregate employment statistics, reflecting worker anxiety regarding job security and wage growth relative to cost-of-living increases. Peek predicts the Federal Reserve will reduce interest rates in December responding to softening employment indicators and deflationary pressures. Peek highlights ongoing uncertainty regarding potential emergency tariff implementation pending Supreme Court constitutional review and validation of executive authority over international trade policy. 1907 NYSE

Bill Dafflon is Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Wondera.AI, an AI music company backed by leading Silicon Valley venture capital firms. Bill is currently an investor in WebX, the world's first Bitcoin Accumulation Company (BAC). Why you should listen WebX International Holdings Limited began its journey in manufacturing — transforming raw materials into value. Today, that same spirit of transformation drives the company towards a new frontier: computation power. Around the world, computation resources are abundant yet scattered — powerful, but often idle or misallocated. WebX saw an opportunity: to turn this fragmented infrastructure into a connected, efficient, and finance-enabled network. Evolving from a textile innovator into a computing-power pioneer, WebX builds the systems that convert energy and computation into digital value — redefining how infrastructure powers growth in the digital age. Backed by world-class partners across finance, technology, and blockchain, WebX connects global capital with computation power — unlocking transparent, sustainable, and enduring value creation. Digital asset treasury companies are booming, but WebX is taking a very different path. Instead of raising capital to buy and hold Bitcoin, the company accumulates BTC directly through operational revenue and targeted investments—feeding value back into the Bitcoin ecosystem over time. After securing an account with a regulated Hong Kong crypto trading provider, WebX recently completed its first Bitcoin purchase, fully funded from internal resources. The company's strategy addresses a major problem in the Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) sector. More than 100 publicly traded firms now hold Bitcoin and other digital assets, but most do so passively. Without income-generating operations tied to their treasury, traditional DATs rely heavily on external fundraising—often at inflated market prices—which dilutes shareholders and collapses in bear markets. WebX's active accumulation model avoids these pitfalls by using its own operating business to steadily buy BTC.

Welcome to the Precious Metals Summit in Zurich! We kick off our coverage with major news as Summit Royalties begins trading publicly.In this exclusive interview, we sit down with Drew Clark, CEO of Summit Royalty Corp., on the eve of the company's debut on the TSX Venture under the symbol SUM as a Tier 1 issuer. Drew Clark discusses the journey of building the company, which involved a takeover transaction with Eagle Royalties and transitioning from "an idea on May 29th" to a cash-flow-positive, publicly traded entity

In this episode we answer emails from Luc and Nick.  We discuss the four levels of investors, the fundamental problems with identity that terms like "saver" and "Boglehead" cause per Morgan Housel, fallacious reasoning often applied to investing and portfolio construction, equity core with growth–value balance and small-cap value tilt, VTI vs VUG trade-offs and tax considerations, tax efficient asset location for bonds, equities, gold, considerations about alternatives like managed futures, and using risk parity portfolios for intermediate term savings during your accumulation phase.Links:Luc's Boglehead Forum Link:  Golden Ratio Portfolio - Frank Vasquez - Bogleheads.orgMindy Jensen's Risk Parity Style Portfolio:  We Built a 5% SWR Retirement Portfolio Using Fidelity in 48 Minutes (Golden Ratio Portfolio)Breathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:Want a portfolio that funds your life, not your identity? We dig into the fuss around the “Golden Ratio” name and get to what actually matters: principles that increase safe withdrawal rates and reduce stress when markets turn weird. Instead of defending a formula, we show how to use uncorrelated assets, thoughtful macro-allocation, and enough simplicity to keep you invested without blinding you to risk.We break down four investor levels—from money hygiene and shiny-object traps to the comfort of low-cost indexing—and then the jump to level four, where professional-grade ideas get translated for DIY investors. That's where uncorrelated assets like Treasuries, gold, and managed futures earn their keep, not because they're trendy, but because they lower correlation to stocks and smooth cash flows across regimes. We also call out common fallacies that derail portfolio debates: past performance cliches that prove nothing, irrelevant metrics used as cudgels, and cherry-picking that erases the 1970s and 2022 as if rare events never recur.Then we get practical with a young FI couple: how to build a durable equity core by pairing total market or large-cap growth with a small-cap value tilt, why VTI is usually fine while VUG may diversify better against value in tax-deferred accounts, and how to avoid tax pain when transitioning. We map smart asset location—ordinary-income generators in traditional, long-term growers in Roth, tax-efficient equities in taxable—and set realistic ranges: 40–70 percent stocks, 15–30 percent Treasuries, under 10 percent cash, and 10–25 percent alternatives. No dogma, just ranges that historically support higher withdrawal rates.We close with a versatile idea: an intermediate risk parity “slush” portfolio you can tap for big purchases without riding the all-stock rollercoaster. Add to laggards, sell winners, keep it simple, and stay focused on the only scoreboard that matters—sustainable spending. If you're ready to trade identity for outcomes and marketing for math, this one's for you.If this resonated, follow the show, leave a review, and share it with a friend who's rethinking their allocation. Your future self—and your future spending—will thank you.Support the show

In Episode 140 of Safer Retirement Radio, Brian Decker and Arrin Wray reveal the critical distinction between accumulation and distribution strategies—and why using the same approach in both phases of life can be financially devastating in retirement. They unpack: Why traditional pie chart portfolios are not retirement plans The danger of using the 4% rule without accounting for sequence of returns risk How a distribution-first strategy helps ensure reliable income—even in volatile or flat markets Why Decker Retirement Planning uses laddered principal-guaranteed accounts instead of bond funds How momentum and dividend strategies provide growth potential in flat or declining markets Real tax strategies to reduce future liabilities, enhance Roth conversion efficiency, and preserve more of your wealth You'll also learn how Decker's math-based planning integrates real returns, tax minimization, and fee transparency to help you retire with clarity—not guesswork.

In this episode, we speak with Iker Suárez, who authored a searing piece in the Monthly Review titled "The Migrant Genocide: Toward a Third World Analysis of European Class Struggle." In it, he challenges the dominant humanitarian framing of migrant deaths at sea, arguing that it isn't a moral crisis but a structural necessity of late imperialism. What unfolds on Europe's shores, he contends, is but a violent expression of global capital's unraveling. Further, diving into the works of scholars like Ali Kadri and Samir Amin, we explore how unresolved agrarian contradictions in the Global South, the accumulation of waste, and the labor-capital contradiction are converging in the form of the systemic genocide of migrants. We unpack why immigration is not a peripheral issue, but the return of capital's deepest contradiction to the imperial core—and how this rupture shapes Europe's ideological terrain, from the failures of social democracy to the rise of fascism. Iker Suarez is an author and doctoral researcher. He studies neocolonialism in Europe and organizes in socialist, anti-racist and anti-imperialist movements in Madrid and New York. His work revolves around European borders, class struggle, and immigration politics from a political economy perspective grounded in the Third World. He co-authored a book on Spain's southern border enclave in northern Morocco (Melilla), focusing on the neocolonial dynamics that undergird European social democracies. His current research focuses on linking European state racism with a holistic understanding of imperialism to better think through strategy. You can follow his work at @ikersuarz.

Most people wait for perfect conditions and call it “planning.” That's just stuck.  In this conversation, Mark Young, an entrepreneur, educator, author, and functional doctor, joins Jim to break the addiction to comfort, reframe failure, and get back to ownership. We hit health, wealth, and work: why public goals matter, why cashflow beats accumulation, and how to use AI as a collaborator (not a crutch). If you're serious about building your Wealth Engine, this one's about action, not consensus. What You'll Learn: Why momentum beats “getting ready to get ready”, and how to act before everything is perfect The real fear behind inaction: public failure and tying your value to others' opinions How “do hard things” compounds in health, business, and wealth—discipline creates predictable outcomes Cashflow > accumulation: stop outsourcing your financial future to Wall Street narratives How to treat AI as a collaborator to upgrade decisions in health and money (without letting your brain atrophy) Action Steps: 1. Own One Hard Thing Today Pick a single uncomfortable action (call the prospect, publish the post, book the consult). Do it before noon. Momentum is a decision. 2. Make It Public Choose one measurable goal and share it with your circle (deadline included). Public commitments kill excuses and create follow-through. 3. Shift from Accumulation to Cashflow Audit your plan: Where does monthly cashflow come from? Map one move to increase it (IBC policy design, a small real-estate cashflow play, or a skill that raises your floor). Mark Young's Final Word: “Curiosity begets curiosity. Ask better questions, do hard things, and use AI as your collaborator. The harder I worked, the luckier I got—and proximity creates opportunity.” Connect with Mark Young: Instagram: www.instagram.com/themarkyoung Website: ryzeagency.com Website II: themarkyoung.com

Join the conversation: The Investor Lab Community So you’ve built wealth in real estate and you’re approaching retirement… now what? This week, we’re exploring the different ways property investors might think about turning a portfolio into retirement income. Should you sell and redeploy into higher-yield assets? Refinance and draw on equity? Pay down debt to free up cashflow? Or move some capital into other assets for flexibility? Instead of theory, we’ll treat this like a live portfolio strategy session - walking through scenarios and considering how the balance between growth, income, leverage, and risk can shift as you move from the accumulation years into retirement. What we’ll cover: When selling makes sense vs when to hold How refinancing, restructures, and top-ups could help fund retirement Why debt strategy in retirement often flips the script from the accumulation phase Balancing cashflow, equity growth, and risk in later life Whether you’re 5 years away or 25, this is exploring ways to build wealth that doesn’t just look good on paper, it funds the lifestyle you actually want. See you on the inside! IMPORTANT: The Investor Lab is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.

DIY retirement income often fails not because of market drops—but because emotional selling, poor tax planning, and wrong withdrawal timing silently drain your savings.For many DIY retirees, the fatal five are market corrections, shifting from accumulation to income without a strategy, lack of access to durable income instruments, mismanaged tax implications, and uncertainty about whether their money will last through retirement.

Adam Rozencwajg, managing partner at Goehring and Rozencwajg — a fundamental research firm that focuses on making contrarian natural resource plays — says that the rally in gold is far from over, and that "until it gets to at least the long-term average [of its value relative to the market], you are in an aggressive bull market, an aggressive accumulation phase." That average would take gold to about $8,000 an ounce, meaning the asset has room to double. Rozencwajg also talks oil and why he likes it despite status as "the most hated asset class in the world." Ryan Redfern, chief investment officer at Shadowridge Asset Management, says that correlations are so high that "you stick with the big stuff, the S&P and Nasdaq," rather than diversifying into small-caps and international stocks, which have had occasional runs but which haven't gained long-term edges on the classics. He sees the market as having a "knee-jerk reaction to news" like potential rate cuts this week, but says that sets up the market for a seasonal run into the end of the year. John Dorfman, chairman of Dorfman Value Investments, brings his class price/earnings-driven style to stocks in the Market Call.

This is an episode recorded this week with Tara Alami to talk about a piece she wrote about Jordan for Vox Ummah last Spring. The essay's title is “The Price of Peace” and it delves into Jordan's role within the US-Imperialist led world system. And Alami discusses the history of the Hashemite monarchy, and the political legacy of Jordanian rulers with respect to Palestinians, Zionist colonizers, and western imperialism. This discussion gets into many of the contradictions of the history of Jordan, Tara's own family history as Palestinians living in Jordan, as well as her personal history as a student there. And she talks about the ideology promoted by the state, the enticement to maintain fealty to the monarchy, and the role Jordan plays as a buffer state in the region.   Tara Alami is a Palestinian writer & researcher from occupied Jerusalem and occupied Yafa. Check out Tara's substack as well. A reminder that on October 1st we launch our study group on Dr. Ali Kadri's The Accumulation of Waste: A Political Economy of Systemic Destruction.

In this discussion we talk with Professor Corinna Mullin who is a member of the Anti-Imperialist Scholars Collective.  Corinna Mullin is an anti-imperialist academic who teaches political science and economics. Her research examines the historical legacies of colonialism and the role of capitalist expansion and imperialist imbrications in producing peripheral state “security dependency,” with a focus on unequal exchange, super-exploitation, resource extraction, and other forms of surplus value drain/transfer as well as resistance. Corinna has also researched and published academic works on border imperialism, struggles around the colonial-capitalist university, fascism, multipolarity, and national liberation, with a focus on the Maghreb, West Asia, and Turtle Island. Corinna was a member of the Steering Committee for the International Peoples' Tribunal on U.S. Imperialism and organizes with CUNY for Palestine and Labor for Palestine. She serves on the Steering Committee of the Professional Staff Congress (PSC)-CUNY's International Committee and is a member of the Delegate Assembly. Full bio from AISC. In this discussion we primarily discuss her piece, Zionism, Imperialism, and the Struggle Against Global Fascism: Palestine as the ‘Hornet's Nest' of US Empire from the Anti-Imperialist Scholars Collective blog The Pen Is My Machete  And a little bit on her piece The ‘War on Terror' as Primitive Accumulation in Tunisia: US-Led Imperialism and the Post-2010-2011 Revolt/Security Conjuncture from Middle East Critique  Also I say more about this in the episode, but Dr. Mullin was fired from CUNY as a result of her stance and organizing with respect to Palestine. We will include a statement from AISC on this and a Statement in Solidarity with CUNY Faculty and Students Facing McCarthyite Retaliation for Palestine Solidarity which we have signed.  There are also a number of other calls to action for faculty and students at CUNY that we will include in the show description. Corinna talks about those at the end of the episode and we strongly encourage folks to support those calls to action it only takes a minute of your time. In this discussion Dr. Mullin talks a little bit about Dr. Ali Kadri's The Accumulation of Waste: A Political Economy of Systemic Destruction and it just so happens that we have a study group on that exact book starting on October 1st, it's available to everyone who supports the show, whether through patreon, BuyMeACoffee or as a YouTube member of the show. Details on that study group and how to join it are linked in the show description. But just to note that there are only about 40 spots left in the group as we publish this, so if you want to join us, make sure you do so ASAP to reserve your space. Calls to Action:  "Hadeeqa Arzoo Malik is being made an example of for the sake of setting the tone across the nation at public universities, as they seek further control over the student movement for Palestine. City College President Vincent Boudreau has already denied her appeal for a drop to the charges, without even an acknowledgement to the 2,000+ calls and emails from the community that demanded her reinstatement. Now, it is time to escalate both our tactics against CUNY and whom we pressure— Take it to the Board of Trustees.

All we have is today. As they say, “Yesterday's history & tomorrow's a mystery.”  Join Norb and Al as we explore the fascinating concept of “The Law of Accumulation” and how, by taking life one day at a time, and living in the all-powerful present, we can achieve more than we've ever dreamed.   The Magic of Positive Thinking is brought to you by Americaneagle.com Studios; follow today for exciting new episodes!

I'm opening up about a big shift in how I see decluttering and downsizing. For years, I shared tips like “set a timer” or “start small”. But what happens when even those steps feel unreachable? I am learning that it's about our nervous system. Together, we'll talk about why clutter can leave us feeling stuck, what survival mode looks like in everyday life, and how finding calm and safety first can change everything. If you've ever felt behind or ashamed that you “just can't get it done,” this episode is for you.

Mt. Iliamna is an active cone-shaped volcano located one hundred and forty miles (225 km) southwest of Anchorage and seventy miles (113 km) northwest of Homer. It is part of the Chigmit Mountains and rises from its base near Cook Inlet to 10,016 feet (3052.9 m), one of the highest peaks in the volcanically active area of the Alaska Peninsula. Ten glaciers radiate from the volcano's slopes. Iliamna last erupted in 1867, and observers have occasionally seen smoke wafting from the summit since then. However, it is the weather surrounding the mountain, not the volcanic activity, that makes Iliamna dangerous. Clouds frequently cloak the mountain's peak, and turbulent winds buffet this mountainous region, creating some of the most hazardous weather on the planet. Coastal fog and rain often create restricted visibility and a low ceiling. For aviators, flying in this area of the state can be challenging, dangerous, and sometimes deadly. Between 1958 and 1977, four mid-sized planes either crashed into Mt. Iliamna or were destroyed by the turbulence near the mountain, killing a total of seventy-nine people.

The world constantly tells us, “You just need a little more.” But what if real peace isn't found in having more, but in learning to need less?What comes to mind when you hear the word “wealth”? For some, it means freedom. For others, it brings anxiety and pressure. Today, Jeff Manion joins us to explore how we can cultivate contentment in a culture that always craves more.Jeff Manion is the Teaching Pastor at Ada Bible Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where he has served for over 40 years. He is also the author of several books, including Satisfied: Discovering Contentment in a World of Consumption.Why Wealth Confuses UsIn a world that constantly urges us to acquire more, climb higher, and chase the next upgrade, contentment often feels elusive. But what if true satisfaction isn't found in accumulation, but in learning—learning to trust, to remember, to let go, and to live fully in the present? Contentment is not something we're born with—it's something we must learn. And we're learning it together.Let's be honest—wealth can be confusing. One day, we're living simply out of necessity, and the next, after years of doing the right things—avoiding debt, saving diligently, and giving generously—we find ourselves in a season of financial stability. You'd think contentment would come naturally at that point. But surprisingly, it doesn't.Learning contentment in a season of sufficiency is often more challenging than in a season of scarcity. When we experience financial security, the temptation to trust in our own strength rather than God's provision becomes a real concern. This isn't new—it's the same struggle the Israelites faced in Deuteronomy 8. After years of daily dependence on manna in the wilderness, God warned them not to forget Him once they entered the Promised Land. He reminded them: “Remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you the ability to produce wealth” (Deut. 8:18). That warning is for us too.The Danger of the “There and Then” MentalityContentment is rooted in the present, not the future. And yet we often believe we'll only be at peace "there and then"—when the vacation arrives, the mortgage is paid off, or the kitchen is finally renovated. But if we can't be fully alive to God and the people around us now, there's no guarantee we will be later.We don't stumble into contentment—we learn it. The Apostle Paul, writing under house arrest, said, “I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances” (Phil. 4:11). His circumstances didn't determine his joy. His peace wasn't tied to his comfort. And ours doesn't have to be either.Sometimes the path to contentment starts by taking inventory—literally. For many of us, stuff multiplies without our awareness. A drawer of unworn t-shirts, a shelf of unused dishes, boxes of forgotten CDs…they add up. We can begin the journey toward contentment by shedding excess.A simple practice, like giving away five items a day for seven weeks, can bring clarity and peace. Not because we're pursuing minimalism for its own sake, but because we're reminding ourselves that joy isn't found in our possessions—it's found in a life uncluttered by distraction, filled with God's presence and purpose.Escaping the Comparison TrapComparison is a thief of joy. Whether or not Teddy Roosevelt actually coined the phrase, it's undeniably true. In our digital age, we don't just compare lives—we compare carefully curated highlight reels. This distorts our view, convincing us we're missing out when in fact, we're richly blessed.Comparison shifts our focus from gratitude to scarcity. And scarcity suffocates generosity. When we believe we never have enough, we become unable to see the abundance God has already given us—abundance meant to be shared.Generosity is one of the most effective ways to break money's grip on our hearts. Paul's charge to Timothy echoes through the centuries: “Command those who are rich… not to put their hope in wealth… but to put their hope in God… to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share” (1 Tim. 6:17–18).When we give, we reflect the heart of our generous God—first in creation, then in Christ. And as we open our hands, we discover joy not in what we keep, but in what we release for the sake of others and the glory of God.Passing on the Legacy of ContentmentWe long for our children and grandchildren to experience true satisfaction. But contentment isn't just taught—it's caught. When our families see that our greatest joy is not in acquiring new and better things but in reflecting the generosity of Christ, they begin to understand that there's a story far bigger than material success.We want them to see us delight in giving, not just spending. To notice our peace when things don't go our way. To recognize that the content life isn't a small life—it's a deeply rich one, rooted in grace and lived with open hands.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have around $1.5 million in total assets and $500,000 in available funds. Given the current tax environment, I'm considering whether now might be a strategic time to withdraw from my pre-tax retirement accounts and pay the taxes. I'm currently living on Social Security and pension income and haven't needed to tap into my savings yet.I'd like to open an account for my great-grandchildren, who are currently 3 years old and 18 months old. I've been looking into a universal life insurance policy, but would appreciate guidance on the best way to save for their future—possibly to help with education expenses.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Satisfied: Discovering Contentment in a World of Consumption by Jeff ManionSavingForCollege.comWisdom 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.

In the latest episode of The Money Reckoning series, I speak with a next-gen wealth holder about the uncomfortable journey of questioning privilege and purpose.THE IMPACT. Patrick Knodel:Is the founder of impact investing fund Innovation for ImpactIs the CEO of the philanthropic Chancemaker FoundationTHE JOURNEY. In our conversation, we explore:Working for purpose and not for money. "I want to feel useful for the world, not just for myself. Let's be honest, in the current system, the best paid jobs are the ones that ruin the world. That's a systemic problem at the moment."Next gen wealth. "The baseline is always how can you keep the wealth in your family over generations? That's the bottom line. The standard is: can we accumulate and keep it? There's not even a question whether that's a good thing to do. That's just a given." "I only have one life. There is an exchange between time and additional accumulation of money. "The inner fight. "How much do I wanna accumulate, to provide a safety net for my own family. And to what extent do I just wanna spend my time working so that it doesn't happen."Planning for the future.  "You can have all those scenarios,  own property and land in different parts of the world that you can reach anytime. And that's what rich people do. Do I want to be like that? No. Let's work really hard toward community and togetherness, so this doesn't happen."Wealth redistribution. "Climate change, biodiversity loss.  You go to the root cause then you have to talk about wealth and about wealth distribution, and nobody who really looks at the world from an outside perspective without taking his own privileged position can deny that the accumulation of wealth is the main root cause of all our problems."

Dr. Jose Lime is a Professor at Southern Illinois University and the principal investigator in the Cannabis Biology and Cultivation Systems lab. He and his team focus on determining how to leverage environmental controls (light intensity, duration, quality, temperature, and CO2), plant nutrition, biostimulants, and hormones to improve plant production. Moreover, the research group is developing techniques to optimize plant yields and quality based on key crop steering traits that increase sustainability and efficiency via plant physiological, biochemical, and agricultural approaches. During our conversation, we discussed several recent studies that Jose and his team have published, including: Using mechanical stimulation and high stress training to increase production of secondary metabolites Applying plant hormones to increase trichome density Assessing how drought stress affects plant yield and potency Standardizing cloning methods for plant propagation Developing standards for measuring trichome density Thanks to This Episode's Sponsor: Advanced Nutrients Founded in 1999, Advanced Nutrients was the first to develop a complete nutrient system that unlocks the true genetic potential of the cannabis plant.
