Patrick explains how modern consumer lending learned from 2008 to create better underwriting, clearer compliance, and properly distributed risk, all in service of enabling commerce in the real economy.–Full transcript available here: www.complexsystemspodcast.com/home-improvement-lending/–Sponsor: MercuryThis episode is brought to you by Mercury, the fintech trusted by 200K+ companies — from first milestones to running complex systems.

Doncaster, Newbury, Cheltenham — three courses, one mission: finding the weekend's best bets.Emmet Kennedy, Andy Newton, George Gorman, and Peter Michael return with the sharpest data-led analysis in racing.

In this episode, we dive deep into the life and legacy of Martin Luther—the monk who sparked the Protestant Reformation and shook the foundations of Rome's power. From the thunderstorm vow that led him to the monastery, to the 95 Theses that exposed indulgence corruption and the money machine behind it, we follow Luther's rise as both reformer and lightning rod. We'll unpack his core doctrines of Sola Fide and Sola Scriptura, his raw and unfiltered Table Talk, his rejection of Copernicus's fraudulent heliocentric model, and even his later writings that mainstream historians twist or hide. Was Luther a lone man of conscience, or also a tool in the larger struggle between elites, bankers, and princes? Emaul: thefacthunter@mail.comMartin Luther The Jews And Their Lieshttps://archive.org/details/martin-luther-the-jews-and-their-lies

1929, 1987, 2025 - wieder sorgt der Oktober für Gänsehaut an den Börsen. Medien warnen, Banker reden von "Kakerlaken an den Märkten" und viele Anleger fürchten den nächsten Absturz. Schon im Frühjahr schauten alle in Panik, als gleichzeitig aber ein seltenes Kaufsignal zündete, das fast niemand beachtet hat: das Raketenschubsignal. Nur "Brichta & Bell" nahmen es damals ernst - jetzt zeigt sich, ob es wirklich gezündet hat.Bei Fragen und Anregungen: brichtaundbell@ntv.deUnsere allgemeinen Datenschutzrichtlinien finden Sie unter https://datenschutz.ad-alliance.de/podcast.html Wir verarbeiten im Zusammenhang mit dem Angebot unserer Podcasts Daten.

“An estimated $124tn is expected to change hands (globally) under the so-called ‘great wealth transfer', with women set to inherit nearly 70% of that amount. Combined with rising educational attainment, stronger diversity and inclusion efforts, and ongoing progress in closing the gender pay gap, this moment signals a transformative rise in global female affluence… What does it mean to be wealthy in this world? What are the type of behaviors? How do we put into practice the values that we have?” Silvia Bastante de Unverhau on Electric Ladies Podcast You might not have heard about “the great wealth transfer” but it promises to change, well, everything. As part of my research for a book I'm writing about it, I had an in-depth conversation with Silvia Bastante de Unverhau about their new research about the impact of this transfer and how women use their wealth differently. Listen to Silvia Bastante de Unverhau of LGT Private Bankers International on this important phenomenon – happening under the radar– in this enlightening conversation with Electric Ladies Podcast host Joan Michelson.   You'll hear about: ●        What “the great wealth transfer” is and how it works. ●        How women and men see “wealth” differently – as do Gen Z'rs and Millennials, who are also inheriting this largess. ●        How wealthy women are investing, spending and donating aligned with environment-social-governance values around the globe. ●        Plus, career advice, such as:   “Create your wealth in a space where you can already have impact….(W)e all spend so much time working, so it's much better if it's aligned to what you actually care for. And then the other piece of advice that I would give is that I think there's always a way of balancing between the need to make an income because we all have that need, with the impact. And very importantly…mid-career women are precisely in this inflection point where I think prioritizing and even thinking very consciously about this could be helpful…The value of your worth does not lie in your net worth.” Silvia Bastante de Unverhau on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.

In the world of white-collar crime, it's not always the man holding the gun who does the most damage. Sometimes, it's the man holding the pen. Russell Laffitte, the former CEO of Palmetto State Bank, has officially been sentenced—state and federal—for his pivotal role in enabling Alex Murdaugh's sprawling fraud schemes. From court-appointed conservator to criminal co-conspirator, Laffitte turned trust into a weapon and helped siphon over $1.8 million from vulnerable clients—victims of injury, trauma, and death. In this explosive breakdown, we dive into Laffitte's calculated choices, the financial mechanisms he exploited, and the chilling pattern of betrayal that turned him into the enabler behind South Carolina's most infamous legal dynasty. This isn't just about a banker gone bad. It's about systemic failure, small-town power, and what happens when legacy becomes liability. We unpack the stolen settlements, the broken promises, and the legal fallout that followed. From the exploitation of Hakeem Pinckney's estate to the stolen trust funds of Natarsha Thomas and the Badger family, this episode exposes how Laffitte kept the Murdaugh machine humming long after it should have shut down. If you thought the Murdaugh case was just about murder—you haven't seen the money trail. And Russell Laffitte was the guy laying down the tracks. #MurdaughMurders #RussellLaffitte #TrueCrime #WhiteCollarCrime #MurdaughFraud #SouthCarolinaScandal #PalmettoBank #ConservatorFraud #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Banker Behind Murdaugh: Russell Laffitte Sentenced for Fraud & Conspiracy Russell Laffitte was once the golden boy of South Carolina banking—CEO of Palmetto State Bank, “Independent Banker of the Year,” heir to a century-old family dynasty. Now, he's headed to federal prison. In this episode of Hidden Killers, host Tony Brueski takes you inside the courtroom and beyond, unpacking the full story behind Laffitte's five-year federal sentence for bank fraud, conspiracy, and wire fraud—all committed to prop up none other than convicted killer Alex Murdaugh. This isn't just about dirty money—it's about the quiet power that makes crimes like Murdaugh's possible. Laffitte didn't pull the trigger. But he moved the money. He signed the loans. He drained trust accounts meant for injured clients and grieving families. And for years, he helped Alex Murdaugh steal from the people who needed protection most. We break down how the scheme worked, who got hurt, and why Laffitte finally pleaded guilty—despite originally fighting the charges. We also explore what his downfall says about the toxic loyalty, unchecked privilege, and small-town dynasties that enabled Murdaugh to wreak havoc for over a decade. Was Laffitte a victim of charm and pressure—or was he always this willing to betray the public trust? And how many more accomplices are still hiding in plain sight? With new details from federal documents, court transcripts, and expert analysis, this is the story of what happens when the people who are supposed to protect the system… become part of the rot.
