Send us a textMastering Financial Clarity with The Three Bucket System (Plus One!)In this episode of The Retire Early Retire Now podcast, host Hunter Kelly, a certified financial planner and founder of Palm Valley Wealth Management, discusses the importance of having a clear financial purpose and introduces a framework called the 'Three Bucket System' with an additional bonus 'Legacy Bucket.' Hunter explains how to categorize your money into spending, flexibility, and freedom (retirement) buckets, and adds a fourth bucket for legacy. The episode covers the roles and purposes of each bucket, common mistakes high-income earners make, and how to balance and fund these buckets to achieve financial clarity, confidence, and calm. Listeners are encouraged to focus on the purpose of their money rather than just the tax treatment of their accounts. Hunter also provides a self-assessment exercise to help listeners evaluate their current bucket allocations. The episode emphasizes the importance of aligning financial decisions with personal goals and values.00:00 Welcome to The Retire Early Retire Now Podcast00:33 Understanding Financial Stress and Purpose01:55 Introducing the Three Bucket System05:09 Bucket One: Spending and Cash Flow07:47 Bucket Two: Flexibility and Options10:32 Bucket Three: Long-Term Freedom12:42 Bonus Bucket: Legacy Planning14:50 Integrating the Buckets for Financial Balance17:16 Self-Assessment and Final Thoughts19:56 Conclusion and Call to ActionCheck out the Palm Valley Wealth Management WebsitePalmValleywm.comCheck us out on InstagramLinkedIn FacebookListen to the Podcast Here!

Mike and the guys discuss why difficult-to-reach courses like Landman, Dismal River, and Gamble Sands are worth the journey.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the escalating confrontation between Minnesota Democrats and federal immigration authorities, growing unrest tied to anti-ICE activism, new economic signals from the White House, rising global pressure on Iran and China, and a look at medical and technology developments heading into the weekend. Minnesota Democrats Escalate Against ICE: Minnesota media outlets and national Democrats are facing backlash after doxxing the ICE officer involved in the fatal shooting of activist Renee Good. DHS officials warn the move could put officers and their families in danger, echoing past incidents in Los Angeles where officers faced threats and harassment. Vice President JD Vance defended the ICE agent, stating that video and medical evidence clearly show the officer acted in self-defense after being struck by Good's vehicle. Radicalization and Anti-ICE Networks Exposed: Reporting reveals that Good was radicalized through a charter school that prioritizes political activism and later trained with a group called ICE Watch, which teaches tactics to obstruct immigration raids. Bryan explains how activists are instructed to use vehicles, barricades, and incendiary materials to block officers, behavior he says amounts to organized domestic extremism rather than peaceful protest. ICE Operations Expand Nationwide: President Trump is sending an additional 100 ICE officers to Minneapolis, bringing total deployments there to roughly 2,000. In Portland, Oregon, two Venezuelan migrants affiliated with the Tren de Aragua gang were shot after allegedly attempting to run over an ICE officer during a traffic stop tied to a prostitution investigation. Democratic leaders condemned ICE actions in both cities, while the administration argues officers are responding to lethal threats. California Loses Federal Transportation Funding: The Trump administration is withholding 160 million dollars from California after audits found that roughly one quarter of the state's commercial driver licenses were issued unlawfully, including to foreign-born drivers who cannot read or speak English. Advocacy groups representing migrant truckers sued to block the revocations, and Governor Gavin Newsom sided with them, prompting federal retaliation. Bryan warns that unsafe licensing practices have already contributed to deadly accidents nationwide. Trump Seeks Massive Military Expansion: President Trump is proposing a $1.5 trillion defense budget, up from $900 billion currently. He argues the increase is necessary for future conflicts and could be funded through tariffs. Budget analysts warn the move could add nearly $6 trillion to the national debt over a decade, raising questions about sustainability and congressional approval. Economic Signals Show Mixed Progress: Layoffs fell in December, trade deficits shrank to their lowest levels since 2009, and the White House announced plans to purchase $200 billion in mortgage bonds to lower interest rates. Federal employment continues to decline as agencies shrink outside of DHS. Bryan notes the strategy appears to be working so far, but court rulings on tariffs could complicate the outlook. Global Pressure Builds on Iran and China: Protests are spreading across Iran, including strikes at critical oil facilities, prompting a violent crackdown by regime forces. President Trump warned that further bloodshed could trigger U.S. intervention. Meanwhile, China is tightening its grip on rare earth exports, cutting off Japan and reminding the world that Beijing will weaponize supply chains whenever it chooses. Health and Technology Updates: New research suggests that certain cancer patients may need to reconsider high glutamine diets during treatment, while UK studies confirm that stopping GLP one weight loss drugs leads to rapid weight regain. Bryan closes with optimism about new lightweight exoskeletons showcased at CES, which may help older adults and injured individuals regain mobility and independence. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: January 9 2026 Wright Report, Renee Good ICE shooting Minneapolis, JD Vance self defense statement, ICE Watch activist training, Tren de Aragua Portland ICE shooting, California CDL audit funding withheld, Gavin Newsom migrant truck licenses, Trump defense budget one point five trillion, tariff Supreme Court ruling risk, Iran protests oil strike crackdown, China rare earth export squeeze Japan, CES exoskeleton mobility technology

Most executives think a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) is a lifeline. It's actually a tombstone. They believe if they just work harder, hit the impossible metrics, and play nice, they can turn the ship around. But here's the cold reality: A PIP isn't designed for your improvement. It's a paper trail designed for your termination. It's a paid interview period—and the clock is ticking. Why this matters There is a dangerous gap between what corporate policy says (HR is here to help) and how the game is actually played (HR protects the company). When you are being managed out, your natural instinct is to defend your performance or seek mediation. That instinct is wrong. By the time you spot the signs—nitpicking, the "cold shoulder," or a sudden shift in responsibilities—the decision has likely already been made. If you treat a PIP as a genuine coaching moment, you lose your leverage. If you don't know how to document the "buckets of wrongdoing" and build a counter-narrative, you walk away with damaged confidence and the bare minimum severance. But if you know the playbook, you can turn a forced exit into a negotiated victory. In this episode, we unpack: Why the "Performance Improvement Plan" is almost never about performance. The exact signs that you are being managed out (and why a new manager is the #1 red flag). Why HR is not your friend—and why going to them too early destroys your leverage. The "Buckets of Wrongdoing" framework: How to document toxic behavior to build your case. The "At-Will" employment trap: Why it's a one-way street that benefits the employer. How to negotiate a severance package even when they try to offer you nothing. The mental toll of gaslighting and why validation is the first step to recovery. A real transformation A professional facing a "Me Too" situation involving a CEO, dating back 20 years. She was wrongly terminated and then gaslit for seven months. Her family and friends told her she was crazy, urged her to drop it, and warned she was damaging her reputation. She felt isolated and powerless. She partnered with Dan Goodman to stop playing the victim and start building a case. They refused to accept the silence. They documented the timeline, identified the inconsistencies, and presented a "scathing, reputationally damaging" narrative back to the employer. After months of being ignored, she received a $50,000 offer out of the blue. But more importantly, the gaslighting stopped. The employer acknowledged the liability through their wallet. She moved from feeling "crazy" to being fully vindicated—and the negotiation is still ongoing.

If you are put on a PIP, the company has already broken up with you; they just haven't moved their stuff out yet. Don't internalize the gaslighting. Document the dysfunction. Turn their desire to get rid of you into your capital to walk away paid.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this final holiday edition of The Wright Report for the week, Bryan shares economic good news, responds to listener questions about immigration, judges, and American identity, and offers a deeper reflection on what it truly means to be an American in a time of division, foreign influence, and cultural strain. Economic Bright Spots After Christmas: New data from Visa, MasterCard, and American Express show holiday spending rose between four and six percent year over year. GDP growth for the third quarter came in at a strong 4.3%, beating expectations. Bryan notes that while wealthy Americans are still doing well, middle and lower-income families continue to struggle with affordability. He argues the data supports Trump's case that tariffs and deportations did not crash the economy, but instead helped stabilize growth and reduce crime. Crime Falls as Deportations Rise: More than seventeen thousand illegal immigrants have been arrested under the Laken Riley Act, with two and a half million deported or self-deported over the past year. Early crime data suggests declines in murder, robbery, and vehicle theft. Bryan cautions the data is still incomplete but says the trend aligns with common sense and historical experience. Military Recruiting Surges: The U.S. military reported its strongest recruiting numbers in fifteen years. Bryan credits leadership changes at the Pentagon and renewed focus on mission and standards, pushing back on critics who predicted chaos under Secretary Pete Hegseth. Judges, Bias, and the Rule of Law: Listener questions focus on Democrat Judge Hannah Dugan's conviction for helping an illegal immigrant escape her courtroom. Bryan explains why jury reluctance to convict shows the cultural divide remains deep. He also defends his practice of identifying which president appointed judges, arguing that judicial bias is real and supported by Supreme Court reversal data. What It Means to Be an American: Bryan expands on Monday's debate about American identity, pushing back on Vivek Ramaswamy's claim that no American is more American than another. Drawing on the Founders, George Washington's farewell address, and the presidency's constitutional requirements, Bryan argues that allegiance, time in the country, cultural assimilation, and freedom from foreign loyalties all matter. He warns that dismissing heritage and lineage risks turning the United States into a fragmented society similar to modern Europe. Listener Questions and Reflections: The episode closes with unscripted questions on Israel, artificial intelligence and future jobs, personal interests, and Bryan's path from the CIA into broadcasting. He encourages young listeners to pursue skills that require judgment and adaptability, citing careers like the Merchant Marines as one example in an AI-driven future. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: holiday economy consumer spending GDP growth, Laken Riley Act deportations crime drop, military recruiting surge Pete Hegseth, Judge Hannah Dugan conviction immigration, judicial bias Supreme Court reversals, what is an American Founders Washington farewell, Vivek Ramaswamy citizenship debate, assimilation heritage American identity, AI jobs future Merchant Marines
