Brian connects it all back to planning, explaining the BetterBuckets™ strategy for building liquidity, stability, and long-term growth. He also explains why having at least three years of cash reserves can turn chaos into confidence! Plus, Brian discussed more on the rise of AI and job security risks, offering practical steps to stay financially adaptable no matter what comes next.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————    

Brian and Jeremiah pull back the curtain on what's really driving the markets—and investors themselves. From the emotional highs of stock speculation to the discipline required for sound planning, they explore why behavior often matters more than economic headlines. The guys unpack how market optimism and consumer frustration can coexist, what it means when valuations outpace fundamentals, and why following "the herd" can lead to regret. They also dive into practical, real-world planning topics: a listener's question about COBRA vs. ACA health insurance, LLC deductions, and tax-smart strategies for the self-employed. Finally, they tackle risk from a new angle—how to see it not as something to fear, but as something to understand and manage. It's a blend of market analysis, financial insight, and straight talk about the psychology behind money decisions.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Hosts: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

Çalınan parçalar ve müzenin sanat tarihi açısından önemi neydi? Fransa'da yaşayan sanat tarihçisi ve müzeci Ekin Akalın Pencere'de anlatıyor. NEDEN PENCERE? Sinemadan müziğe, çizgi romandan dijital sanata, sokak oyunlarından uçurtma uçurmaya, gölge oyunlarından illüzyon gösterisine, tiyatrodan plastik sanatlara, romanlardan masallara, çocuk şarkılarından operaya, geçmişten bugüne, geleneklerden modern zamanlara kültür, sanat... Unutulmasınlar, kuşaktan kuşağa aktarılsınlar, diye... Zeynepgül Alp'le Pencere cumartesi 09.30, pazar 19.10'da NTVRadyo'da.

C dans l'air du 23 octobre 2025 : Quatre jours après le spectaculaire cambriolage du Louvre, l'enquête se poursuit et une nouvelle vidéo, filmée par un témoin, est apparue sur les réseaux sociaux. Deux hommes y sont filmés en train de descendre calmement par un monte-charge de la galerie Apollon, tentant de mettre le feu à l'engin — en vain — avant de s'enfuir en scooter. Les malfaiteurs, au nombre de quatre, auraient laissé dans leur fuite deux disqueuses, un chalumeau, de l'essence, des gants, un talkie-walkie, une couverture, ainsi que la couronne de l'impératrice Eugénie et un gilet jaune, selon des sources policières. Un casque aurait également été retrouvé sur place.Auditionnée au Sénat mercredi, Laurence des Cars, présidente-directrice du Louvre depuis 2021, a reconnu des failles dans la sûreté du musée : notamment un manque de caméras sur les façades de l'établissement. « J'assume totalement que nous avons une faiblesse dans la protection périmétrique du Louvre », a-t-elle affirmé. « Nous n'avons pas repéré suffisamment à l'avance l'arrivée des voleurs », a-t-elle concédé. « Les faiblesses de notre protection périmétrique sont connues et identifiées », a indiqué Laurence des Cars, assurant que le futur plan de sécurité permettrait de couvrir « l'ensemble des façades ».La ministre de la Culture, de son côté, a dénoncé les fausses informations circulant à ce sujet :Le dispositif de sécurité « a fonctionné ». « Les systèmes d'alarme ont été déclenchés à chaque effraction, et dès l'intrusion dans la salle, de la fenêtre aux vitrines ! Aucun système n'a été défaillant », a expliqué Rachida Dati. Pourtant, a-t-elle ajouté, « non », tout n'a pas été parfait et « oui », des choses sont à améliorer. Emmanuel Macron a demandé mercredi, en Conseil des ministres, une « accélération » des « mesures de sécurisation » du Louvre. Le président de la République attend sur son bureau une liste de propositions « pour la semaine prochaine », alors que les critiques se multiplient.Ainsi, l'ancienne ministre de la Culture Aurélie Filippetti (2012-2014) estime qu'« il y a aujourd'hui un défaut majeur dans le pilotage du ministère de la Culture (...). On a fait des choix de prestige, de communication souvent tape-à-l'œil, au détriment de l'entretien de base du musée (…) L'argent n'a pas été mis au bon endroit. Par exemple, depuis 2014, il y a eu une diminution de 14 % des personnels d'accueil et de surveillance du musée », a-t-elle expliqué mercredi sur le plateau de C dans l'air.Un rapport de la Cour des comptes pointe un retard « persistant » et « considérable » dans la mise en conformité des équipements de sécurité dans l'enceinte du Louvre. Il révèle notamment que 60 % des salles de l'aile Sully et 75 % de celles de l'aile Richelieu ne sont pas équipées de vidéosurveillance.Mais au-delà du Louvre, ce sont les débats autour de la sécurité des musées en France qui sont relancés. Nos journalistes sont allés à la rencontre de la directrice du musée du Hiéron, à Paray-le-Monial. Le 21 novembre 2024, ce musée d'art a été victime d'un braquage à main armée. Après avoir tiré des coups de feu, quatre individus, casqués, encagoulés et gantés, avaient fait main basse sur de précieux objets comportant de l'or, de l'ivoire et des pierres précieuses. Une partie seulement du butin a été retrouvée dans un sac, au fond de la rivière Arroux, en plein centre-ville de Gueugnon. Douze hommes ont été mis en examen jusqu'à présent dans cette affaire.LES EXPERTS :- Laurent Valdiguié - Journaliste d'investigation à Marianne- Christophe Barbier - Editorialiste politique, Conseiller de la rédaction Franc-Tireur - Didier Rykner - Directeur-fondateur, la Tribune de l'art- Caroline Pigozzi - Journaliste et écrivain- Anne-Elisabeth Moutet (en duplex) - Editorialiste au Daily Telegraph

C dans l'air l'invitée du 22 octobre 2025 avec Aurélie Filippetti, ancienne ministre de la Culture et directrice des affaires culturelles de Paris.Cet après-midi à 16h30, la commission des affaires culturelles du Sénat auditionne la présidente-directrice du musée du Louvre, dont huit joyaux ont été dérobés dimanche matin lors d'un cambriolage spectaculaire. Le préjudice est estimé à 88 millions d'euros selon l'établissement, qui a rouvert ses portes ce matin, exception faite de la galerie Apollon où a eu lieu le vol. Alors qu'un pré-rapport de la Cour des comptes, dont la version complète doit être publiée début novembre, pointe des retards "considérables" et "persistants" dans la mise aux normes des installations techniques du musée le plus visité au monde, Emmanuel Macron a demandé ce mercredi en Conseil des ministres une "accélération" des "mesures de sécurisation" du Louvre. Quant au ministre de l'Intérieur Laurent Nuñez, il a assuré ce matin sur CNews et Europe 1 que l'enquête "progresse" et avoir "toute confiance, ça c'est sûr, dans le fait que nous retrouverons les auteurs". Reste la question de la responsabilité. Le Figaro a affirmé mardi que Laurence des Cars avait présenté sa démission après le vol, mais que cela lui avait été refusé et qu'elle avait reçu le soutien d'Emmanuel Macron. Rachida Dati, la ministre de la Culture, assure de son côté que "les dispositifs de sécurité ont fonctionné" et qu'"ils n'ont pas été défaillants".Une commission d'enquête sur la protection du patrimoine est envisagée par les députés, mais sa création a été reportée.Aurélie Filippetti est ancienne ministre de la Culture et directrice des affaires culturelles de Paris. Elle reviendra sur le cambriolage du Louvre et les questions de sécurité et de responsabilité que ce spectaculaire incident soulève.

Nesta quarta-feira, o Museu do Louvre em Paris, reabriu as suas portas, após três dias de encerramento para dar tempo à investigação de recolher todos os dados sobre o espectacular assalto de que foi alvo no domingo. O que se sabe para já é que  indivíduos invadiram pelo exterior a galeria onde se encontravam as jóias da Coroa de França. Para tal, utilizaram um elevador de carga, cerraram uma das janelas da sala, partiram os mostruários, levaram as jóias e fugiram de lambreta. Tudo isto em sete minutos. Até ao momento, não se conhece o paradeiro dos assaltantes e muito menos das jóias avaliadas em 88 milhões de Euros mas cujo valor patrimonial é considerado "inestimável". Tanto o Presidente da República como o próprio governo ordenaram o reforço da segurança deste museu que apesar da sua importância e apesar do número impressionante de visitantes -9 milhões em 2024- mostrou as suas fragilidades. Esta problemática, aliás, mereceu recentemente um relatório interno e as autoridades estavam cientes de que existiam falhas na segurança. Philippe Mendes, galerista luso-francês em Paris, considera que apesar do seu carácter espectacular, o assalto de domingo não foi tão minuciosamente preparado como parece à primeira vista. RFI: O que se pode dizer sobre o assalto ao Museu do Louvre no domingo? Philippe Mendes: Em termos de rapidez, eu acho que foi um assalto bem organizado, embora me pareça que não é de grande banditismo. Tenho a impressão que foi mais um roubo de bandidos mais básicos. Sabem que têm que ser muito rápidos porque os seguranças e a polícia, em menos de dez minutos, podem chegar. Portanto, eles fizeram isso muito rápido. Mas ao mesmo tempo, há muitas coisas que mostram que não são aqueles bandidos, tipo CNN. Toda a gente pensou que isto foi um roubo tipo Arsène Lupin. Não foi. Deixaram cair uma coroa importantíssima. Ao fugir, deixam os elementos que utilizaram para poderem entrar, a serra para o vidro, não conseguiram deitar fogo ao elevador que usaram para os levar até lá acima. Isto tudo mostra um bocadinho que isto está desorganizado. Foi pensado, mas não foi organizado. Eu acho que foi mesmo um assalto, um roubo de oportunidade. Sabiam que ao domingo há pouco trânsito em Paris, era muito fácil de fugir. Sabiam que havia falhas, porque isto já foi comunicado várias vezes nos jornais franceses. A presidente do Louvre, ela mesmo -acho que foi o grande erro dela- há um ano ou dois, alertou, mas alertou publicamente sobre as falhas, sobre os problemas de segurança no Louvre. Tendo feito isso, claramente que indicou a quem poderia pretender um dia a fazer um assalto ao Louvre, que era o momento. Devia ter alertado claramente o Ministério da Cultura, devia ter alertado a Procuradoria de Paris, mas não devia ter alertado, indo aos jornais, e fazer uma coisa pública, porque isso aí era o sinal que eles podiam lá ir e que havia várias falhas. E claramente que aquela janela da galeria de Apollon era um dos pontos fracos do Louvre. É uma janela que dá para aquela rua que ao domingo não tem trânsito. Sabia-se mais ou menos que as jóias estavam todas ali, que era o primeiro andar. Não é assim tão alto, portanto tinha ali tudo mais ou menos certo para eles. Portanto, nesse aspecto, acho que foi um assalto pensado mas pouco organizado. Conseguiram. Agora o que é gravíssimo é que atacaram não só o património francês ou a história de França. Atacaram não só o Louvre, mas atacaram também todos os franceses. Ao roubar o Louvre, roubaram a França. RFI: Isto acontece no Louvre, que é um dos mais conhecidos e prestigiados museus a nível mundial. É uma espécie de montra da França, praticamente ao mesmo título que Notre-Dame. O que é que isto significa para a França? Philippe Mendes: O Louvre, como Notre-Dame, é um dos monumentos principais de Paris, de França e um dos mais conhecidos no mundo. Portanto, falando do Louvre, estamos a falar ao mundo inteiro. Toda a gente sabe o que é o Louvre e o que é Notre-Dame. Portanto, claramente que é muito mais sensível e que o mundo inteiro está atento ao que se passa em monumentos como este, que é o maior museu e o mais visitado do mundo. Claramente que choca. O choque é muito maior e tem uma repercussão internacional muito forte e dá um mau sinal claramente do que se está a passar no património francês e a nível da cultura em França. Isso é uma pena, mas podia ter acontecido noutro museu qualquer. Os museus agora são muito vulneráveis. Eu acho que este roubo dá para reflectir sobre uma coisa muito importante: é que a economia internacional está mal, vai haver cada vez mais assaltos deste tipo e claramente que, por exemplo, na Praça Vendôme, em Paris, onde estão todas as grandes lojas de joalharia mais importantes, eles têm um sistema de alarme de segurança muito mais forte e bem organizado do que os museus franceses que não apostaram completamente na segurança, porque não têm meios para isso. Porque embora a França tenha um Orçamento de Estado para a cultura importante, não é assim tão importante como isso para ter a segurança que pretendia. Portanto, é muito mais fácil atacar um museu hoje em dia do que atacar uma joalharia em Paris. Foi o que aconteceu, porque estamos agora a falar do Louvre. Mas não se esqueça que há um ano e meio foram roubadas e falou se muito menos, sete ou oito caixas de rapé do Museu Cognacq-Jay, que é um museu não muito longe do Louvre. Duas delas pertenciam ao Louvre, outras duas, à Coroa Real inglesa, e foram roubadas por quatro pessoas, exactamente com o mesmo método. Quatro homens entraram mascarados em pleno dia, partiram os mostruários e fugiram com as caixas. Não houve tanta repercussão nos jornais internacionalmente, porque o museu, embora seja um muito um bom museu em França, não tem aquele impacto que teve o Louvre. Mas isto mostra que os museus são muito frágeis e são vulneráveis e são atacados regularmente. Foi atacado (no mês passado) o Museu de História Natural de Paris, onde roubaram pepitas de ouro. Desapareceram, foram derretidas. Claramente que agora nunca mais as vamos encontrar. Foram roubadas do Museu de Limoges, há alguns meses, porcelanas chinesas de grande valor que certamente foram -desta vez- uma encomenda para a China. Portanto, há assaltos regularmente nos museus, porque os museus não têm essa protecção, como devia ser. RFI: Disse-o há pouco, apesar da própria directora do Louvre ter alertado publicamente que havia falhas na segurança e apesar de ter havido inclusivamente um relatório interno referindo que o facto de se prescindir de 200 funcionários, nomeadamente na área da segurança, sobre um efectivo de 2000 funcionários nestes últimos 15 anos no Louvre, podia também representar um problema para a segurança do museu e apesar de as próprias autoridades terem sido alertadas, nada foi feito e só agora é que está a pensar em reforçar a segurança do Museu do Louvre. Philippe Mendes: Sim, já devia ter sido feito. Depois, só agora é que se está a pensar. Sim, mas é sempre assim. Agora estamos a falar porque houve um assalto. Mas imagine que amanhã há uma inundação em Paris e o Louvre fica inundado. Vai se criticar porque não foi feito nada antes para proteger o Louvre das inundações e outros. Embora haja um plano, eu acho que ele não é o melhor. Há sempre razões para criticar a falta de fundos para isso. Mesmo que houvesse mais guardas no Louvre, os guardas não podem intervir. Portanto, o que é que eles poderiam ter feito? Não sei bem se é uma questão só de falta de pessoal no Louvre. Acho que não. Eu acho que se podia pensar melhor na segurança do Louvre, a nível de organização, menos humana, mas mais técnica. RFI: Estão a monte três ou quatro assaltantes com jóias estimadas em 88 milhões de Euros e sobretudo com um valor patrimonial "inestimável". As jóias são conhecidas, as fotografias destas jóias andam por todo o lado, no mundo inteiro. O que é que eles vão fazer com essas jóias? Philippe Mendes: Eu acho que a única possibilidade que eles têm é de desfazer as jóias todas e vender diamante por diamante, safira por safira. Não podem vender as jóias tal e qual como obra de arte, porque em si elas têm um valor de 88 milhões de Euros, porque são obras que ainda por cima foram compradas pelo Estado para o Museu do Louvre nos últimos 30 anos. Portanto, tinham já um valor de mercado. Mas entrando no Louvre, têm um valor inestimável histórico, agora patrimonial. Portanto, esse valor de 88 milhões de Euros no mercado de arte é zero, porque as peças tal e qual não podem ser vendidas, ninguém vai comprar. Portanto, eles vão desfazer completamente peça por peça e vão tentar vender no mercado. RFI: Está prestes a abrir mais uma edição da Feira Internacional de Arte Contemporânea de Paris (a Art Basel no final da semana). Como é que se pode avaliar o ambiente em que decorre este evento este ano? Philippe Mendes: Tendo acontecido o que aconteceu, vão certamente reforçar a segurança à volta deste evento. É um evento que acaba por ser equivalente a um dos maiores museus do mundo, durante os dias de abertura, com obras de uma importância financeira muito, muito, muito alta. Mas quem é que se vai atrever a entrar agora num assalto no Museu do Grand Palais? Ninguém. Eu acho que não é propriamente um problema nesse nível. Recordo-me que há três ou quatro anos, na Tefase, em Maastricht (nos Países Baixos), a feira internacional mais importante do mundo onde eu participei, houve um assalto, ainda por cima num stand da joalharia. Foi exactamente a mesma coisa. Eram quatro mascarados. Entraram em pleno dia. Chegaram, roubaram as jóias, fugiram e nunca mais apareceram. Nos dias seguintes, nunca houve um problema na Tefase. Foi um roubo de oportunidade. A Tefase reforçou a segurança e nunca mais houve nenhuma preocupação até agora a esse nível. Portanto, eu acho que vai correr muito bem a Feira Internacional de Arte Contemporânea, a Art Basel em Paris. Não é porque houve um assalto no Louvre que Paris está fragilizada a este nível. Acho que não. Não podemos entrar numa paranóia agora de que 'Paris está perigosa e há assaltos'. Não é por aí. Foi bem pensado. Foi uma ocasião que eles perceberam muito bem que estava ali. E aproveitaram.

This week, Brian and Jeremiah unpack one of the biggest forces shaping today's markets—fear. They talk about how investor emotions can cloud judgment, why so many people are sitting in cash despite record market highs, and what “waiting for the right time” actually costs over years or even decades. They also dig into the Fed's latest comments, interest rate expectations, and how inflation psychology keeps consumers—and investors—on edge. Plus, listener stories about retirement regret and post-pandemic investing lessons prove one thing: discipline beats drama every time.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

Over the weekend, Jeremiah and Brian go into the realities of America's rising debt and why politics alone won't fix the problem. The hosts challenge common assumptions about government spending, inflation, and taxation—breaking down how these big-picture issues actually trickle down to everyday households. Instead of waiting on Washington, they focus on what individuals can do now: understanding the real impact of debt, how taxes may shift depending on policy changes, and why relying solely on campaign promises is a dangerous financial strategy. Plus, Their conversation also explores investing in uncertain times, from opportunities in technology and AI to evaluating where future growth could come if the U.S. reduces its reliance on foreign goods.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

This week, Brian and Jeremiah tackle some of the toughest money choices listeners face. Should you use an inheritance to pay off a low-interest mortgage or invest for growth? Is gold really the “safe haven” people believe it to be or just another speculative bet? And how do you plan ahead for long-term care costs without draining your family's savings? Real-world calls drive the conversation, with questions about paying down debt, structuring investments, and balancing family responsibilities. The guys break down the math and the mindset, showing why the “obvious” answer isn't always the best financial move. Plus, they also zoom out to cover big-picture topics: the role of insurance in retirement, why cash alone isn't a strategy, and how to think about risk when the markets feel uncertain.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

This week, Brian and Jeremiah draw a line straight from the California Gold Rush to today's Wall Street. Why? Because the way people chase wealth really hasn't changed. From miners risking it all for a nugget of gold to investors jumping on the latest market trend, the patterns of greed, fear, and opportunity repeat over and over. The guys break down what history can teach us about investing today: why discipline outlasts hype, how to balance risk and reward, and how to avoid letting emotion wreck your financial plan. They also touch on the bigger picture—like what “wealth” really means and why legacy and values matter just as much as returns.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

Artificial intelligence is moving faster than most people realize, and it's about to change everything from jobs to investing. Over Labor Day weekend, Brian Wiley and Jeremiah Bates open up the topic of the AI revolution and ask the big question: is this the next great wealth-building opportunity, or another dot-com style bubble? From massive data centers and trillion-dollar tech investments to the risk of widespread job disruption, the hosts break down what AI means for markets, the economy, and everyday investors. They highlight how companies like Nvidia, Microsoft, and Meta are positioning themselves, and how government policies could shape the outcome.

This week on The Real Money Pros, Brian and Jeremiah take on some of the hottest )and trickiest) money questions hitting households today. They unpack the pros and cons of investing in gold, the reality of inflation's impact on retirement, and why “gig work” is changing how people save for the future. Listener questions bring the conversation to life, covering everything from the risk of holding too much cash, to how small business owners can build wealth without losing tax efficiency. The guys also highlight common traps investors fall into when chasing safety, and why long-term planning still beats short-term reactions—even in unpredictable markets.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

Bonjour à toutes et à tous, et bienvenue dans Anime No Melody, votre podcast dédié aux musiques qui ont marqué (ou pas) l'histoire de l'animation. Le 09 août 2025, le décès de Nobuo Yamada (NoB) a profondément attristé les fans du monde entier. En premier lieu les japonais bien sûr ayant suivi sa carrière depuis ses débuts avec Grand Prix puis grâce à la renommée du groupe MAKE-UPet les chansons pour la série culte Saint Seiya (Les Chevaliers du Zodiaque) et ses autres collaborations pour le Tokusatsu. Mais Nobuo Yamada n'était seulement un chanteur, il était musicien, parolier, arrangeur... beaucoup d'artistes ont pu profiter de sa créativité.NoB se battait depuis 8 ans contre le cancer (on ne lui donnait pas 5 ans à vivre). Alors qu'il travaillait la veille encore sur de nouvelles chansons, son combat s'est terminé. Je revois encore la scène de fin du film Tenkai-hen josō: Overture de Saint Seiya, où Seiya blesse Apollon comme dans un dernier souffle de vie et s'envole dans le noir profond et je ne peux m'empêcher de penser à NoB ... Je remercie Alex du site HEROSHOCK pour avoir participé à cette émission pour la partie Tokusatsu.Bonne écoute à tous et on se donne rendez-vous à la rentrée !!Pour voir ses émissions Twitch et Kick :https://kick.com/la-taverne-sakura/https://www.twitch.tv/la_taverne_sakura

This week, Brian and Jeremiah break down three issues that are hitting Americans the hardest right now: inflation, housing, and the future of money. They talk through why prices keep climbing, how higher rates are shaping the housing market, and what it all means for families trying to balance today's costs with long-term planning. The conversation then shifts to stablecoins and new legislation in Congress that could bring digital dollar-backed assets into the mainstream—changing how we bank, invest, and even make everyday payments. Plus, listener questions spark discussions on retirement withdrawals, whether holding too much cash is really a smart move, and how to sidestep the emotional traps that can derail a portfolio.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/  

This week, we break down what the Fed's latest rate pause really means and why the market's reaction isn't always the full story. They dig into the ripple effects on mortgages, credit card rates, and borrowing costs, and talk about how “higher for longer” might stick around when it comes to interest rates. The guys also tackle listener questions on everything from annuity pros and cons to the best time to start Social Security. Plus, they share why cash can be a dangerous long-term strategy, how to use volatility to your advantage, and why market pullbacks aren't always bad news. Whether you're worried about inflation eating your savings, wondering how to invest in a weird market, or just trying to make sense of mixed economic signals, this episode is one to tune into.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

Puntata a cura di Untimoteo. Arrivato su Netflix nel 2025, Kids on the Slope è un anime del 2012 diretto da Shin'ichirō Watanabe, il celebre autore di Cowboy Bebop. Ma se là dominavano il ritmo frenetico e la fantascienza hardboiled, qui siamo agli antipodi: un racconto intimo e realistico di formazione, amicizia e amore, ambientato nel Giappone degli anni '60. Al centro della storia – tratta dal manga Sakamichi no Apollon – ci sono le jam session jazzistiche tra due liceali molto diversi. La musica, curata da Yoko Kanno, accompagna e scolpisce i momenti chiave: da Coltrane a Chet Baker, da Bill Evans a Gershwin. Un'opera breve (12 episodi), raffinata e nostalgica, che racconta la giovinezza con grazia e profondità.“Animazione” è il format del podcast di Mondoserie dedicato alle diverse scuole ed espressioni del genere, dall'Oriente alla scena europea e americana. Parte del progetto: https://www.mondoserie.it/  Iscriviti al podcast sulla tua piattaforma preferita o su: https://www.spreaker.com/show/mondoserie-podcast  Collegati a MONDOSERIE sui social:https://www.facebook.com/mondoserie https://www.instagram.com/mondoserie.it/   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwXpMjWOcPbFwdit0QJNnXQ  https://www.linkedin.com/in/mondoserie/ 

This weekend, Brian and Jeremiah go into the realm of estate planning, focusing on the misunderstood but crucial tool: the revocable living trust. They answer listener questions from California to Florida, explaining step-ups in basis, trust-based ownership, and how titling mistakes can send your estate straight into probate. The real-world implications of leaving property outside of a trust, the legal difference between revocable and irrevocable trusts, and why funding your trust matters just as much as setting it up. They also address common misconceptions, like whether trusts protect assets from lawsuits or divorce—and offer guidance on avoiding costly oversights. Estate planning isn't just for the wealthy—it's for anyone who wants their legacy to pass smoothly and privately to the next generation. If you've ever thought about leaving property to your kids, this conversation will change how you plan for the future.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

This week, Brian and Jeremiah dig into one of the biggest mistakes they see from investors—sitting in too much cash out of fear. They talk through why holding back might feel safe but often leads to regret, missed opportunities, and slower retirement progress. They also break down today's weird market conditions: strong indexes, mixed economic data, and why consumer confidence still feels shaky despite record highs. Plus, they take on common listener questions—like how to deal with rising insurance premiums, whether real estate still makes sense, and how to stop overthinking every market dip. They also take listener calls and dive into real-world planning questions: • Should you wait to invest until after the election? • When do Roth conversions make sense? • How should real estate affect your tax plan in retirement? • Are annuities a good idea for monthly income—or a trap?   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

Brian and Jeremiah cover what everyone's thinking: Why does the market feel fine if the public doesn't? They unpack the disconnect between bullish investors and frustrated consumers, and what the Fed's “higher for longer” stance really means for housing, inflation, and your portfolio. They also dive into a huge shift coming to our financial system—stablecoins. As Congress pushes new legislation to bring these digital dollar-backed assets into the mainstream, Brian and Jeremiah explain what it means for investors, the banking industry, and anyone tired of waiting 3 days for an ACH transfer. Other highlights this week: how regret can wreck a retirement plan, why cash isn't a long-term strategy, and how to avoid emotional investing traps that burned people during COVID-era markets.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

In this special episode of The Real Money Pros, Brian and Jeremiah are joined by Idaho Congressman Russ Fulcher to talk through one of the biggest pieces of legislation in years: the $4.5 trillion “Big Beautiful Bill.” Fulcher shares the story behind his popular addition—no federal tax on overtime pay—and how it could boost take-home income for millions of hourly workers. The crew also tackles where this bill fits into the larger economic picture, from growing federal debt to tariffs and trade resets with China, Mexico, and the EU. Later in the show, Brian and Jeremiah get personal with calls from listeners asking about the bill's impact on Social Security taxes, the future of crypto like XRP, and how to protect their families through estate planning and life insurance.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros

This week on The Real Money Pros, Brian and Jeremiah dive into the real (and wild) consequences of owning gold the wrong way—like when a client's self-directed IRA got caught up in a precious metals scam, leaving them with pennies on the dollar and a massive headache. From there, we unpack some crazy estate stories (think: gold in storage units, rifles hidden in floor vents, and a map-worthy backyard treasure hunt) that show why how you own something is just as important as what it is. And yes—Jeremiah shares his own run-in with the law in Hawaii involving drone fishing, a court date, and one very expensive lesson about checking the rules.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

In this tech-centered episode, Brian and Jeremiah explore the game-changing legislation pushing stablecoins into the financial mainstream. They break down what stablecoins really are, how they differ from volatile cryptos like Bitcoin, and why this move could disrupt legacy payment giants like Visa, Mastercard, and Western Union. From the impact on small business transaction costs to how this shift could eventually remove paper money from circulation, the guys dive deep into how blockchain technology might reshape personal banking, investing, and even how you pay your taxes. They also explore the potential investment angles—highlighting which companies might sink, and which ones could surge as adoption grows.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

Today I speak with Gabrielle Apollon and Pooja Bhatia about the histories behind the persecution of Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, and beyond. Targeted as exemplary “bad people” by demagogue Donald Trump, the stories of both the town and the people of Springfield are brought forward by Pooja Bhatia, who lived both in Haiti and as a journalist lived with the people in Springfield.  Complementing Bhatia's local stories of migrants, we have Gabrielle Apollon of the Global Justice Clinic, who tells of the complex “push” factors that drive Haitians from their homeland. We end on a hopeful note—showing how instances of transnational solidarity have succeeded where governments and international governmental bodies have failed.For more information on this topic, please check out our blog.Gabrielle Apollon is the Director of the Haitian Immigrant Rights project at NYU Law's Global Justice Clinic. She also coordinates the Hemispheric Network for Haitian Migrants' Rights, a coalition of Haitian activists, lawyers, and leaders, collaborating to combat the anti-Black racism, exclusion and cyclical displacement Haitians have faced as they've migrated throughout the Western Hemisphere.

In this second part of our two-part show, Jeremiah Bates takes the mic to share his perspective on one of our most powerful retirement planning tools: the bucket strategy. Building on Brian's introduction in Hour 1, Jeremiah breaks down the logic, math, and mindset behind organizing your assets into three core buckets—short-term liquidity, income, and long-term growth. Using real client examples, including one who retired just before the COVID crash, Jeremiah explains how the bucket plan can protect your retirement income, reduce emotional investing mistakes, and help you weather market downturns with confidence. He outlines how each bucket functions, what types of investments belong in them, and why timeline-driven planning is essential for lasting financial peace of mind.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

Brian Wiley dives deep into one of the most effective investment strategies for retirement: bucket-based investing. Using a fictional scenario, Brian explains how blending goal-based and cash-flow planning can help retirees organize their assets into three key buckets—stable, income, and growth. He walks through their $1.3M portfolio, their $6,000/month retirement income needs, and how to align investments with real-life goals like buying an RV or planning for early retirement. Brian shows how this simple system empowers investors to manage market volatility, reduce emotional decisions, and retire with clarity.

The dudes unpack the headlines that distracted investors all week—starting with the bizarre (and kind of surprising) public feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. But rather than get caught in the drama, they break down what these kinds of headlines actually reveal about market psychology, innovation narratives, and how investors often overreact to noise. Brian shares thoughts on Musk's focus on Mars, and how the biggest minds—and money—are increasingly concentrated in AI, robotics, and infrastructure. Jeremiah brings it back to reality with a discussion on emotional investing and why even the best plans get derailed by uncertainty and indecision. They also revisit the bucket strategy, explain how long-term planning can absorb market turbulence, and share a real-world story about a client who sold a home and finally put cash to work—reminding listeners that action, not perfection, drives results. We talk tech, politics, and personal finance in a way that helps listeners refocus on what actually matters: having a strategy that isn't swayed by social media, soundbites, or sentiment swings.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

Everything from market volatility and investor behavior to life insurance gaps and why simple planning still wins… Jeremiah and Nic unpack the latest tariff developments—what's real, what's politics, and how uncertainty is shaking Wall Street—and explain why emotional reactions to short-term headlines often lead to long-term regret. Jeremiah shares stories from client meetings, including a couple sitting on too much cash for too long, illustrating the cost of inaction and paralysis by analysis. The team stresses the importance of knowing your investment timeline and purpose—especially when volatility strikes. A key stat? The S&P 500 has rallied over 18% since April 8th—proof that missing just a few big days can wreck your long-term returns. They also discuss the AI-driven surge in NVIDIA, with caller insights and reminders about avoiding concentration risk.

Over the Memorial Day weekend, Brian Wiley and Alexandra Lundgren unpack the often misunderstood mechanics and risks of 401(k) plans—from overloading on company stock to the overlooked tax strategy known as Net Unrealized Appreciation (NUA). If your retirement plan is tied to your employer's stock, your paycheck, and maybe even a pension, you may be overexposed without realizing it… They walk listeners through how NUA works and when it might be smarter to move company stock out of a 401(k) instead of rolling it all into an IRA. Brian and Alex also dive into loan provisions, early withdrawals, and the in-service distribution option that can open the door to greater investment flexibility—if your plan allows it. They also break down why 401(k) plans are designed the way they are, what employers can customize, and how plan features like automatic enrollment, vesting schedules, and Roth catch-ups impact savers at different stages of life.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Alex Lundgren ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

Brian, Alex, and our callers dig into one of the most overlooked but urgent problems in personal finance: our retirement system is broken—and most people don't even realize it. The conversation opens with an honest critique of the current mess of savings vehicles: 401(k)s, SIMPLEs, SEPs, IRAs, Roths—all with different rules, limits, and levels of access. The hosts explain why these inconsistencies create a fundamental inequality: if you're self-employed, you can stash away $70K pre-tax, but if you're a W-2 employee? You're capped at less than half that. It's a system built with good intentions that's now a patchwork of inefficiency, confusion, and lopsided opportunity. The episode features a practical case study from a young entrepreneur trying to offer retirement benefits to a small team with limited resources. Alex breaks down the real math behind startup retirement plans and offers realistic paths forward. They also take a call from a college student who saved $10K and wants to invest it wisely—an unexpected reminder that real financial planning starts early, and opportunity favors the intentional.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Alex Lundgren ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

This last Saturday, Brian Wiley and Jeremiah Bates dug deep into the real-world impact of tariff policy, investor behavior, and why emotional risk tolerance matters as much as the numbers. The market feels chaotic—but as the guys explain, it's not just the economy reacting—it's the people. And like a game of musical chairs, the longer the music plays, the more irrational the behavior becomes! We open up with sharp commentary on market overreactions tied to tariffs and trade drama. From there, it zooms in on the behavioral side of investing: fear, confirmation bias, and the mental loops that drive emotional decisions. Brian and Jeremiah explain why many investors—especially retirees—feel stuck and how a simple framework like the "bucket strategy" can bring clarity. There's also discussion around overexposure to stocks like Nvidia or Tesla, and why it's easy to get caught chasing performance when a clear plan is missing. Real listener calls—like a business owner seeing reshoring effects from tariffs—round out the conversation with timely, ground-level perspective.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

The trio gang (Brian, Jeremiah, and Nic) goes into the real economic impact of tariffs, rising uncertainty, and how financial planning needs to adapt to both market volatility and emotional behavior. As headlines swirl about the administration's evolving trade strategy, the guys challenge listeners to examine their own “fortitude” for this economic shift—and whether they're reacting emotionally or strategically. Jeremiah emphasizes that personal impact matters more than GDP headlines, reminding listeners that preparation and liquidity are key to managing any downturn. Nic draws from his personal experiences to explain how unease around money often stems from deeper concerns—goals, family, and long-term plans—not just market performance. The episode also tackles estate planning with practical advice: when a will isn't enough, why trusts often make more sense, and how proper account titling and beneficiary audits can prevent probate delays. Plus, listener questions round out the hour, ranging from home buying decisions during economic uncertainty to the future of crypto and the Treasury's recent moves.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

Brian Wiley and Jeremiah Bates dig into how the latest tariff headlines, political pressure on the Fed, and fast-moving market swings—often triggered by fake news and social media rumors—are creating both chaos and opportunity for investors. Brian shares insights from a recent financial conference, pointing out a troubling generational gap in financial advisory leadership and highlighting how seasoned advisors are keeping clients steady through volatile times. The show also features real listener calls, including advice to a 26-year-old balancing debt repayment with future investing goals, and a deeper look at dealing with a financial scam tied to solar financing. The overarching message is clear: market volatility is nothing new, and emotional reactions are often the enemy of smart investing. Wiley and Bates emphasize strategy, education, and planning—urging you to position yourself for future opportunities rather than reacting to short-term fear.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

In this solo-hosted episode, Jeremiah Bates explores the week's financial news and practical planning strategies—anchored by real-world client conversations. While Wall Street processed more volatility, led by Nvidia's $5.5B hit and Apple's China-related struggles, Jeremiah explains how index weighting magnifies the market impact of tech giants and why understanding portfolio construction matters more than ever. But markets are only part of the story. Long-term care costs are skyrocketing—like a $12,000/month surprise bill for a client's mother—and how families can prepare. He discusses tools like Miller Trusts, Medicaid planning rules, and how some families might self-fund care without sacrificing their financial stability. Plus, tax-efficient strategies like Roth conversions and Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) for retirees facing RMDs they don't need. It's important to understand your tax brackets, filing status, and charitable intent when making these decisions.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Host: Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

After the crazy week, Brian and Jeremiah dissect what they call the most emotionally driven and predictable market sell-off of their careers. Brian shares how, mid-flight, he scrambled to access Wi-Fi—not to panic, but to buy—spotting a clear opportunity as investors dumped assets out of fear. The hosts emphasize a critical truth: emotional decisions, not strategy, drive most investment mistakes. Missing just the top 10 days in the market over decades can cut your returns in half. Timing matters—but only if you're prepared. Jeremiah highlights how uncertainty around tariffs, treasury yields, and economic policy triggered fear-based behavior, not grounded planning. The message is clear: strategy beats headlines, and emotion is your portfolio's worst enemy. For those still working, market drops are opportunities. For retirees, preparation—liquidity, proper asset allocation, and planning—prevents disaster.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Hosts: Brian Wiley & Jeremiah Bates ————————————————————— SPONSORS: Guild Mortgage: https://guildmortgage.com Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ Formations: https://get.formationscorp.com/real-money-pros —————————————————————

Dans la mythologie grecque, Apollon est l'un des dieux les plus vénérés et les plus complexes. Fils de Zeus et de Léto, frère jumeau d'Artémis, il incarne à la fois la lumière du soleil, l'harmonie musicale, la beauté, la médecine, la prophétie, et même la justice. Il est donc naturel que les attributs qui lui sont associés — notamment la lyre et le dauphin — reflètent cette richesse symbolique. Et ces deux symboles, pourtant très différents, racontent chacun une histoire profondément ancrée dans les récits mythologiques.La lyre, tout d'abord, est sans doute l'attribut le plus emblématique d'Apollon. Elle incarne son rôle de dieu des arts et de la musique, mais aussi sa capacité à instaurer l'harmonie entre les hommes et les dieux. Selon la légende, l'instrument n'a pas été inventé par Apollon lui-même, mais par Hermès, le dieu farceur, alors qu'il n'était encore qu'un nourrisson. Pour se divertir, Hermès aurait tué une tortue, tendu des boyaux d'animaux morts sur sa carapace et ainsi créé la toute première lyre. Peu après, il vole le troupeau de vaches appartenant à Apollon. Lorsque ce dernier découvre le vol, il s'apprête à punir Hermès, mais ce dernier, pour se faire pardonner, lui offre la lyre. Séduit par la beauté de l'instrument et par les sons qu'il en tire, Apollon accepte l'échange.Dès lors, Apollon devient le dieu de la lyre, celui qui inspire les poètes, les musiciens et les chanteurs. Il dirige les neuf Muses, qui représentent les arts et les sciences, et joue de la lyre pour adoucir les cœurs, apaiser les conflits, et exprimer l'ordre du monde. La musique d'Apollon n'est pas simplement un art : elle est une manifestation de la logique, de la beauté parfaite et de l'équilibre cosmique.Mais Apollon est aussi lié à un tout autre univers : celui de la mer. C'est là qu'intervient un second symbole : le dauphin. Cet animal est associé à l'un des grands récits fondateurs du culte d'Apollon : la création de l'oracle de Delphes. Selon le mythe, Apollon, cherchant à établir son sanctuaire, repère un navire crétois au large. Pour guider ses futurs prêtres, il se transforme en dauphin et nage jusqu'au navire. Fascinés par l'apparition, les marins suivent le dauphin jusqu'au rivage, où Apollon reprend forme humaine et leur annonce qu'ils serviront désormais dans son temple.Ce geste donne à Apollon une autre dimension : celle du guide spirituel, capable de mener les hommes de la mer vers la terre sacrée, du monde matériel vers le monde divin. Le dauphin devient le symbole de cette fonction de passeur, de protecteur, mais aussi de lien entre les éléments : la mer, la terre et le ciel.Ainsi, qu'il soit représenté avec une lyre ou un dauphin, Apollon révèle toujours une facette de son immense pouvoir : celle qui unit les arts, la sagesse et la guidance divine.
