Life gets busy when you have a new baby, so Chris Hutchins is on a quest to learn all the hacks, optimize his life, and share what he’s learned with you in his new podcast, All the Hacks. The goal of the podcast is to help listeners upgrade their lives by living more exciting, fulfilling lives without spending a lot more money and optimizing it all along the way. Life hacks tend to fall into one of three camps. It clicks with and becomes second nature, you find a way to automate it so you don’t even have to think about it, or it’s too much work and you never do it again. If you can find where optimization and excitement intersect, it’s a huge win for you and your family. When Chris thinks about life hacks, he thinks about different aspects of his life and what the important parts are, such as family, work, finances, shopping, travel, and self. Categories may also be broken down into multiple subcategories. Jonathan says the idea of life hacks and living his life in a slightly more optimized way is what led him to financial independence which he says is the ultimate life hack as it helps us reclaim our most precious non-renewable resource, our time. Coming out of a year of lockdown, it seems like everyone is planning to travel somewhere. Chris recommends using Google Flights to get quick insight into flight prices with flexibility on airports and dates. For hotel planning, Chris says it’s often a choice between a better price or a better experience. Trip Advisor recently launched Trip Advisor Plus, a paid membership service that allows them to offer hotel rates around 7-8% off because the rates are not available to the general public. However, booking directly with the hotel will likely get you a better experience. In addition to booking directly, reaching out to someone on the sales team or the general manager will often get you an upgrade or some sort of amenity. You may be able to find the names of individuals by seeing who is responding to reviews on Trip Advisor. Having status with the hotel can help as well. A family life hack Jonathan and his wife began doing is creating a shared family photo library and build a slideshow of their favorites from the year. Brad believes another life hack is just being a good person and making personal connections because it makes others want to go to bat for you. A lot of customer service reps have the discretion to do things for you that they wouldn’t if you get angry with them. Website account hacks are becoming more commonplace and passwords are frequently stolen so using the same password for everything can be trouble. Check to see if your account has been part of a data breach at Haveibeenpwned. A password manager makes it easier to use unique passwords for all your accounts. Increasing security with two-factor authentication helps make your accounts even more secure. Chris has a fireproof box in his home where he keeps important documents and the one password he uses with his password manager 1Password. In the event of death or incapacitation, a legacy binder has all the information loved ones need to manage your affairs. As mentioned on the show previously, Brad uses ToDoist to track all his tasks. Chris says that you can’t use any software system like ToDoist for an hour and see the magic. Commit to it. When it comes to renting cars, Chris rents with Avis using a Costco discount. He says to make sure if you’re a member of something, you find out if they have deals for you. Autoslash and Turo are additional ways to possibly save money on rental cars. Chase and American Express credit cards have offers to save many when using their cards. Listener Jessica asked about life hacks for type A career women and mothers on the path to FI. Chris thinks there is power in being incredibly passionate about a company you want to work for. He also says you can negotiate your salary all of the time especially if you present data that you are being underpaid. Before having their baby. Chris was able to find almost half of the items on their baby register in the second-hand marketplace, which allowed them to have everything they wanted and not skimp out on their savings rate. Similarly, Brad’s wife Laura is able to plan ahead for the future and buy seasonal clothing for their daughters at tremendous discounts. Another life hack, meal planning, is something that Chris and his wife just purchased for introducing their baby to solid foods. He says there is a bare minimum of what your time is worth. While they could have done it for free, buying the meal plan freed up a lot of their time making the cost worth it. Jonathan says for baby clothes, his wife was able to make out like a bandit using local buy nothing groups. Plus, she has been able to arrange a neighbor exchange to keep kids in clothing as they grow. And within their home, they rotate toys to keep them interesting. Another resource Jonathan has for Jessica is Dour and Carol’s book, Raising Your Money-Savvy Family, while Chris recommends moms’ groups, who share information and recommendations with each other Chris says meal planning is his biggest hack when it comes to cooking. He uses Paprika to save recipes, meal plan, and grocery shop. Steven Boyer from CampFI recommends if you cook something often, keep all of the items you use physically together. Brad used a little hack like that to remove the pain points he was experiencing make his morning smoothie prep go more smoothly. Holly says if you have a separate freezer, you can buy meat in bulk when they are on sale and then have them whenever you need them. Although Jonathan and his wife tried once a month meal prep, they have moved to cooking two to three meals a week and eating leftovers. Chris says he intentionally scales his meal sin Paprika up so that they have leftovers. Brad likes to reduce the paradox of choice by eating the exact same meal every day for breakfast and needs a system for lunch. To reduce her paradox of choice and frustration, Leslie created a capsule wardrobe for her closet by pretending she was packing for a three-week trip. Chris has been culling his wardrobe by separating the clothing he has worn and washed from what stays in his drawers. The things that have remained in the drawers he can get rid of. Karen’s daughter hates the idea of college and has an entrepreneurial mindset. Chris says there are so many opportunities to learn these days but the hardest thing is to tangibly identify something you can do. Get experience. Starting something doesn’t mean it has to be your full-time job. You can explore the entrepreneurial side while doing something else. Learning new skills is valuable. Try a bunch and see what lights you up. You don’t need to go to college anymore to earn an above-median income which is something he discusses in the Talent Stacker podcast. Jonathan and Bradley Rice built a job placement program around Salesforce which might be something Karen’s daughter would be interested in. Chris says automation is magical and one of the things that drew him to work at Wealthfront was financial automation where he works on automation that directs your money where you want it to go automatically.

Rental car prices are crazy right now, and it's almost impossible to find a car, but it might not be for the reason you think! Jonathan Weinberg is from Autoslash.com, and he spoke to Anna and Raven about the surprising reason it's so difficult and expensive to find a rental car right now.
Anna's feeling nervous. She keeps asking Raven every 5 minutes if she looks ok. What's got her all worked up? The same thing that has millions of people feeling stressed all over the country… (00:30) Prince Phillip has passed away, and Britain is getting ready for the first royal funeral since Princess Diana. Due to covid restrictions though, the official funeral will be small, only about 30 people. Anna was wondering how the Queen picks out her mask? Is it a royal mask with the Union Jack on it, or maybe just a regular blue surgical mask? That's when she suddenly had a brilliant idea… (2:50) Are you up to date on this week's news? Well Anna has three crazy news stories you might not have heard yet, and Raven is gonna pick one to talk about! His options are; How your dog can get paid to get drunk, Harvey Weinstein talking to his lawyers about air fryers, or a feel good story about a dog possessed by demons! (9:37) Red lights are a big inconvenience, especially when you're running late, but if you do this every time you're stopped at a red light that's all I need to know about you! (13:05) Rental car prices are crazy right now, and it's almost impossible to find a car, but it might not be for the reason you think! Jonathan Weinberg is from Autoslash.com, and he spoke to Anna and Raven about the surprising reason it's so difficult and expensive to find a rental car right now. (16:47) What inappropriate question has someone asked you at work? Anna and Raven got an email saying that asking about someone's vaccine is an invasion of privacy and not appropriate for the workplace. So, naturally, they sent Producer Jon around the office to ask other inappropriate questions! (20:15) What weird thing do you write off on your taxes? Tax season is Raven's favorite time of year, he takes deductions on everything! But one person called in who has him beat. You won't believe how this person justifies writing off food! (25:57) Couples Court: Dominque and Mark bought a new house and Dominque wants to borrow from their 401K to buy new furniture and to fix some things. Because of Covid, you don't have to pay a tax penalty, so she thinks it's the perfect time. He says that money is just for retirement, and they shouldn't touch it. What if there's an emergency in the future and they need it? Whose side are you on? (33:18) The Can't Beat Raven jackpot is one of the highest every at $2800! Does Regina have what it takes to beat Raven in pop culture trivia and claim the prize? (40:00)
Episode Notes Today's show features Jonathan Weinberg of AutoSlash talking about the massive current shortages in rental cars, and Victor Prince, author of The Camino Way: Lessons in Leadership From a Walk Across Spain
Jonathan Weinberg, CEO of AutoSlash discusses What to Do if You Hit a Deer in a Rental Car See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
I go through a couple of suitcases a year due to my travel. My current suitcase is a white Day of the Dead bag – I've had people stop me to take it's picture. It's kinda cool. I got it because my bag died in between crazy travel, and I only had one day to buy a new one. I couldn't even wait for Amazon so I went to Ross. As I'm looking at bags, they announced that the store was losing power in 5 minutes. I didn't have time to come back, so my friend pointed out a cool bag with a pretty picture, and I grabbed it. Turns out it was a Day of the Dead bag. This week I'm talking about travel tips, and today's tips are a few things that you should and shouldn't pay for when traveling. Pay for TSA pre-check - $100 for 5 years. Even if the pre-check line is longer than the regular line, it goes faster because you don't have to take your shoes off or pull your laptop out. Buy it now. If you're renting a car then go to Autoslash.com. That's spelled out autoslash.com. My friend Chip at ChipsMoneyTips.com gave me this advice. Subscribe to his ezine and go to autoslash to book your car. Once booked, then register it at Autoslash. They track it, because rental car companies have periodic one day sales, and if your car company has a sale, they will send you an email and you can re-book at the cheaper price. You can register a car you didn't book through autoslash, but autoslash is GREAT. I've saved THOUSANDS of dollars doing this. If you're flying on Southwest for a flight more than 2 hours, when you book your ticket, buy the early bird check in. You will avoid sitting in the middle seat. It's only $25 bucks. It is worth it. And finally, get a roller bag with DOUBLE wheels. Single wheel bags tend to tip over and aren't as sturdy. You should have 8 wheels – 2 per corner. It makes a big difference. If you want a peak behind the scenes of my comedy career, and all my travels, check out my book on Amazon – "Convention Comedian: Stories and Wisdom From Two Decades of Chicken Dinners and Comedy Clubs" That's it for today. Take care and enjoy your journey.

Saving on Summer Air Travel - Nicholas Kralev The Not Old Better Show, Travel, Food & Health Interview Series Welcome to the Not Old Better Show, Travel Series I'm Paul Vogelzang and this is episode #372. Today's show is brought to you by AutoSlash Today's Travel Series guest is Nicholas Kralev, who as many in The Not Old Better Show audience will know is a globe-trotting author and entrepreneur who has visited almost 100 countries and flown more than 2 million miles. How does he travel that distance, that many miles, and still stay solvent? Well, Nicholas Kralev decided 15 years ago that knowledge is the most effective key to affordable and comfortable travel. Since then, he has mastered the system and learned how to beat the airlines at their own game, using their own rules. As you're finishing up your summer travel planning, you may find that booking a flight is like playing roulette — you never know what you'll get. Then there are the fees for everything from luggage to food to your seat assignment. Nicholas Kralev has felt that pain. Nicholas Kralev is a former US State Department staffer, and foreign correspondent for the Financial Times. In those roles, Nicholas Kralev has learned how to navigate the secrets of the airline industry and get the travel he wants at the price he wants. He shares those secrets in a new book, Decoding Air Travel: A Guide to Saving on Airfare and Flying in Luxury. Kralev tells us today that he once saved $5,000 on an international business class ticket. Just how did he manage that? OMG! Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better Show via internet phone, Nicholas Kralev.

We've spoken to Marc previously, and today we're catching up to Marc at his home in Ajiici, (AH-ha-hic) Mexico. It's always wonderful speaking with my friend, Marc Miller. Marc is so upbeat, so positive and Marc has learned much in his move, now as ex pat, to Mexico. Marc has much to share and has done a great deal of experimentation with telecommunications, video, mobile and cloud based technologies to make our interview today work, and his own work work, while living outside of the US. Of course, we'll have lots of links to find and connect with Marc Miller online, and where to find the newest edition to his excellent book, “Repurpose Your Career” which I've asked Marc to read from now… That of course is our guest today, Marc Miller. Marc founded CareerPivot.com to help the baby boomer generation create successful and fulfilling professional lives. Marc's books, his workshops, his speaking, resources, podcasts, and Marc's stated strategy is to work with those of us “in the 2d half of life,” who want to change. Now, for my audience, let's answer some questions: * Does the idea of career change overwhelm you? * Do you feel trapped in your career? * Do you fear it's too late to make change?

CEO Interview - Jonathan Weinberg, Founder AutoSlash The Not Old Better Show, Interview Series Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, I'm Paul Vogelzang, and this is episode #364. Today's show is brought to you by AutoSlash. As part of our Business Buildout Interview series, today's guest is the CEO of AutoSlash, Jonathan Weinberg. Jonathan Weinberg, AutoSlash's 42-year-old co-founder. Jonathan Weinberg got his start in technology when his father who worked in technology for United Airlines took young Jonathan to the Kennedy Airport in New York to lay cable under the international arrivals building. Jonathan Weinberg's career also includes a management role at Radio Shacks and a near-death experience directly below the airplane impact zone in the South Tower of the World Trade Center, I'll put up a link to Jonathan's account of his very real 9/11 experience, which is eerie because I was in Philadelphia, on that day and remember well the pandemonium. Back to Jonathan Weinberg, the idea to start AutoSlash came from his mother in Florida, who thought there was a business in all of the auto rental rate sleuthing he did before visiting her. Today, AutoSlash is a website dedicated to saving people money on car rentals, but they now offer hotel services, too. AutoSlash is the only site that applies the best coupons/discounts from AAA, AARP, and many others, and then tracks rental price changes right up until the pickup date, and re-books users to capture these savings automatically—ALL FOR FREE! I had the chance to ask one of the utmost experts, AutoSlash CEO Jonathan Weinberg, some questions about car rentals and the car rental industry. You guys know that I am far from an expert on this subject so I was very excited that he was willing to help out. Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better Show, AutoSlash CEO, Jonathan Weinberg. Thanks to AutoSlash for sponsoring the show today.

Jefferson and the Meaning of Religious Freedom - Dr. John Ragosta Smithsonian Associates Art of Living Interview Series Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, I'm Paul Vogelzang and this is episode #358. Today's show is brought to you by AutoSlash. As part of our Smithsonian Associates Art of Living author Interview series, we are joined today by historian, best-selling, award winning author Dr. John Ragosta. Dr John Ragosta will be appearing at the Smithsonian Associates program, June 17, 2019, and the title of his presentation is Jefferson and the Meaning of Religious Freedom For 200 years, Thomas Jefferson and his Statute for Establishing Religious Freedom have stood at the center of our understanding of religious liberty and the First Amendment. Jefferson's expansive vision—including his insistence that political freedom and free thought would be at risk if we did not establish a strict separation of church and state—enjoyed a near consensus of support at the Supreme Court and among historians until 1985 when Justice William Rehnquist called reliance on Jefferson “demonstrably incorrect” as a matter of history. But, the Statue for Establishing Religious Freedom is quite powerful, persuasive and even, as Dr. Ragosta points out, “Poetic.” Let's listen as Dr. Ragosta reads briefly from Jefferson's statute about why Jefferson felt that freedom of religion is so essential to establishing a functioning American republic.

As an adaptogen, it’s great at combating stress and preventing the release of excess cortisol.

Certainly more research should be conducted, but the more this wonder-herb is being studied the more promise it shows. As a suspected potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, it’s effects on the brain and body have been touted to help support everything from thyroid function, to adrenal fatigue, energy levels, brain cell activity, and immune system virility, to name a few.

As an adaptogen, it’s great at combating stress and preventing the release of excess cortisol. By regulating the body’s physiological response to stress, ashwagandha is believed by a number of researchers to be able to stave off the anxiolytic effects of day-to-day, and even acute stress. In one very impressive, double-blind, placebo-controlled study conducted in 2000, 88.2% of all participants who took a form of the ashwagandha herb saw a marked improvement in their anxiety levels after 2 and 6 weeks, the pre-determined follow-up times of observance. Certainly more research should be conducted, but the more this wonder-herb is being studied the more promise it shows. As a suspected potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, it’s effects on the brain and body have been touted to help support everything from thyroid function, to adrenal fatigue, energy levels, brain cell activity, and immune system virility, to name a few. And if you’re excited like I am about this herb, I’ve got fantastic news… It’s our latest Elite Life Nutrition product!

If not, listen up because they are INCREDIBLE and the single best car rental booking site I’ve come across when it comes to finding the best deal on renting a car. If you’re like me and you travel a lot, Autoslash can be a lifesaver! Unlike other car rental booking sites which offer up "standard rates", AutoSlash searches hundreds of coupons and discount codes for all the major rental companies to find you the lowest rate possible taking into account discounts you are already eligible for based on your membership affiliations. This includes discounts for members of AAA, Costco, AARP, credit cards and various frequent flyer programs that are free to sign up for. Instead of searching all over the place, and comparing rates, AutoSlash does all the work for you to find the lowest rate possible. Best of all, it's a free service. Once booked, you can track pricing on your reservation and AutoSlash will keep on looking for better deals right up until your pickup date. Rates often drop as the pickup date approaches, so you can often save a significant amount of money this way. Not only will they check the company you're currently booked with, but all other companies as well. If they find a lower rate, they'll email you so you can re-book and save. Many customers re-book multiple times as rates drop and AutoSlash finds better deals. AutoSlash searches all the major rental companies including many discount brands. Renters on average save 30% or more using AutoSlash and AutoSlash saves customers millions of dollars per year. I used to spend hours and hours trying to look up all sorts of coupons from so many different sites. I’ve literally wasted numerous days of my existence trying to save money on getting a nice but affordable rental. But now, I don’t have to worry about that at all! Why? Because AutoSlash has my back and they take care of all this for me! And quite honestly, I kind of love the fact that they get to help me, and you, the regular hard-working man, save some extra cash, instead of having to fork it over to the massive corporate rental companies. Always a plus! And did I mention it's totally free? Yup, if you travel regularly, or make even one trip this year for that matter, make sure you check out AutoSlash now. They will definitely save you a boatload of money, and get you the best deal possible. Go to AutoSlash.com right now to start saving! Again, that’s AutoSlash.com!

Our guest today is Umbrex member Whit Pidot, an independent consultant who was formerly a Partner in the Travel practice at McKinsey. His clients include the CEOs of some of the top travel companies in the world including airlines, rental cars, and hotels. Whit has been fascinated by the world of travel from an early age. As a hobby, he has been running a travel agency on the side since college. In today’s episode, we first explore some of Whit’s favorite travel hacks for business travelers, such as: For finding the best rates on rental cars, Whit likes Autoslash.com. For hotels, if you aren’t going to book directly on the hotel brand’s website, Whit’s current favorite sites are Upside.com and Rocketmiles.com. For all travel properties, ask what the Triple A rate is: sometimes the AAA rate is better than the corporate rate. Whit once had an entire McKinsey team get AAA memberships because the AAA rate at the hotel they were staying at was better than the McKinsey rate. We discuss Whit’s travel agency, and how being in the business himself with his own Sabre subscription has given him a pulse on the business that informs his consulting work. We also discuss Whit’s consulting work, which has a strong focus on loyalty programs. I love hearing Whit’s stories about the travel industry, and I hope you find this episode helpful.
On this episode of the podcast, we sit down with Josh and Jenna of the Nomad Yoga Family to discuss being on the road, traveling with kids and the Digital Nomad life. After traveling separately during and after university and deciding that having a family wasn't going to affect their love of travel and adventure, Josh and Jenna decided they wanted a different lifestyle to the one they were living in Canada. Rather than stemming from unhappiness in their stable lifestyle, their desire to sell their yoga business and take their family on the road two years ago came from a desire for adventure and something different, and they haven't looked back since! Traveling through the west coast of Canada, and parts of the United States and Mexico, Josh and Jenna have taken their business online and have adapted to day to day life traveling in a camper van, including traveling slower to allow their kids to enjoy their downtime, and making the most of 100 square feet of living space! We chat with Josh and Jenna about all things overland travel, including the specs of their camper van and how they chose it, some of the factors they consider when choosing a place to camp for the night, and their feelings on safety and security driving through countries like Mexico with two young children. We also talk to them about what caused them to want to travel long-term in the first place, and some of the changes they've seen in their kids' personalities since hitting the road two years ago. With the wide range of topics Josh and Jenna cover with us, this is definitely not an episode to miss! Enjoy! This episode of The World Wanderers is sponsored by AutoSlash.

BEST TRAVEL APPS & SITES A recent study found that buying your flight tickets online on a Sunday is when you tend to find the cheapest fares. It is also great to use other sites or apps to research prices but if the price is the same on the airline site you may be better off just getting you ticket there in case there are any issues it may help if you are able to contact the airline directly instead on through a third party seller. Booking on Cyber Monday can also get you great deals that are only for that day! DOSH is a great app to book hotels because you recieve money back to your account and you can then either use that money through the app or you can transfer it to your bank account. This app will also let you know of restaurants nearby that are affiliated with DOSH. Hostels have come a long way. The site Hostel World is great because they give ratings and have a detailed listing of what each place offers. It may seem like it is only for one or two people to just grab a bed for the night. But now this may be a great option for you family. Autoslash is a great site to book a car rental. One great reason to use this site is because the site will alert you if there was a price drop and then you can rebook the car and save some money. The money you save may just pay for a dinner out! You can save your phone battery from draining so quickly if you download offline maps of the area before you are out there that way you can use wifi to download and you won't have to use up your battery by using the location and map apps on your phone. FAVORITE TRAVEL GEAR Shellie likes to wear her Kuhl cargo pants that way she has plenty of pockets to keep things. There must be at least one zipper pocket though that way she can keep her license or passport and her phone safely tucked away.
