Episode Overview: In this conversation, Chris Thomas discusses the need to update financial metrics that families use to measure their success. He argues that many individuals are using outdated benchmarks that do not reflect the current economic environment, leading to a false sense of stability. Thomas emphasizes the importance of adopting new metrics that focus on resilience, sustainability, and the ability to absorb financial shocks. He calls for a shift in mindset from legacy thinking to future-oriented strategies that prioritize protection and stability over mere income figures.Takeaways:Most families are not failing financially; they are using outdated metrics.Old money metrics do not reflect today's economic realities.Legacy thinking can hinder financial progress.Families need to measure their financial health accurately.Clarity in financial metrics is essential for protection.Income resilience is more important than job security.Home ownership must be sustainable, not just a status symbol.Bills being paid does not equate to financial stability.Comparison with others can obscure true financial risks.Families should focus on their financial trajectory, not just their current position.Tempo exists to inform, empower, and invest in people shifting how they think, live, and build wealth through knowledge, media, and actionable opportunities.“Own your Tempo, Move with Purpose, and Build with Power.”Join the Tempo Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/pacesetnetwork/?ref=share_group_link

As the old Treasury Minister faced the Cannan guillotine a new Treasury Minister rose back up from the political abyss. So what can Chris Thomas really achieve in the relatively short eight months he has as new Treasury Minister? And was departing Treasury Minister Alex Allinson naively persuing his personal ideology or pragmatically implementing what Tynwald thought it wanted? Find out on this evening's extended Agenda. Are we heading to a political winter of despair or is a spring of hope just round the corner?

The new DoI Minister is Tim Crookall (this is his third time as Infrastructure Minister since the 2021 election) and as Chanelle Sukhoo was getting Lawrie Hooper's reaction to the departures we learned that Chris Thomas takes over as Treasury Minister.

The months of October and November are anniversary periods of many INXS albums, and as such, we pay tribute to both Listen Like Thieves and Full Moon Dirty Hearts in a unique but fitting way. Released in 1985, Listen Like Thieves was a guitar-crunching, live-sounding and Chris Thomas-produced tour de force that broke the band in America and set the template for the juggernaut of Kick, only two years later. Full Moon Dirty Hearts, released in 1993, was an overlooked gem, coming hot on the heels of the critically acclaimed Welcome to Wherever You Are, which had been released only 14 months earlier. This was an experimental and hook-laden musical soundscape that was sadly overlooked in the marketplace as the grunge movement took over the planet. So Bee and I stack these two albums up track by track in an album “face off” where we compare, rank and rate 1-12 each song against one another with a collective lens on how these two fine albums connect with our ears, hearts and minds in 2025. And before you INXS nerds (like me) share the fact that Listen Like Thieves only has 11 songs, not 12 as FMDH does, we add a red herring to balance out the contest! With a bumper news section and a unique tribute track, it's time to forget about the problems in your life and enjoy the gift that is INXS: Access all Areas! Love and peace https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/
