What's scarier than a haunted house? Looking at your retirement account after ignoring it for five years. Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Doug welcome back Chuck Jaffe (Money Life with Chuck Jaffe) for his legendary annual Halloween visit—and this year, he's bringing two treats to the basement. First up: Chuck's Halloween Money Game for kids. Picture this: trick-or-treaters can take one piece of candy and walk away... or they can play a game where they might win more candy, actual money, or lose it all. It's economics wrapped in a Snickers bar. Chuck breaks down how each choice teaches kids (and parents) about risk, reward, delayed gratification, and why sometimes the safe bet is actually the smart bet. If you've got kids—or just want a genius way to gamify money lessons—you'll want to steal this. Then things get spooky. Real Stackers share their most bone-chilling financial horror stories: the credit union error that nearly cost someone their house, the coworker's "advice" that turned into a disaster, and the procrastination that haunted someone for years. These aren't fictional frights—they're real mistakes that real people are still recovering from. And every story comes with the lesson that could've prevented it. Plus: Doug's trivia takes a Halloween turn (naturally), and Joe and OG debate whether government incentives are more trick or treat. What You'll Walk Away With: Chuck Jaffe's brilliant Halloween Money Game—how to teach kids about risk, reward, and smart decisions using candy The economic principles hiding in every trick-or-treat choice (and how to explain them without killing the fun) Real Stacker horror stories: the financial mistakes that haunt people for years The red flags that could save you from starring in your own money nightmare Why the scariest financial advice often comes from people who mean well This Episode Is For You If: You want a creative way to teach kids about money that doesn't involve a boring lecture You've ever made a financial decision you wish you could take back You want to learn from other people's mistakes instead of making them all yourself You've got a money skeleton in your closet and want to know you're not the only one FULL SHOW NOTES: https://stackingbenjamins.com/frightening-halloween-stories-with-chuck-jaffe-1753 Deeper dives with curated links, topics, and discussions are in our newsletter, The 201, available at https://www.stackingbenjamins.com/201 Enjoy!

Labor Day might be about rest, but in the basement, we're getting to work on busting some of the most persistent myths in personal finance. Joe Saul-Sehy and OG welcome insurance pro Tony Steuer to unpack the shiny marketing around infinite banking and velocity banking. Spoiler: sometimes “be your own bank” really means “make your insurer rich.” From permanent life insurance pitfalls to the real math behind these strategies, Tony helps separate clever sales pitches from solid financial planning. Then we shift gears to a conversation every parent, grandparent, and future gift-giver will love. Renowned financial journalist Chuck Jaffe joins the crew, fresh from becoming a grandfather, to share how he's setting his new grandchild up for a strong financial future. Think stock portfolios for toddlers, early Roth IRA strategies, and simple systems that keep family generosity from getting lost in the shuffle. His practical, battle-tested tips will have you thinking differently about the best ways to give kids a head start. Whether you're looking to avoid costly detours or create generational wealth, this episode is equal parts cautionary tale and inspiration. You'll walk away ready to dodge financial traps, build smarter for the next generation, and maybe even rethink your own long-term giving plans. Why infinite and velocity banking aren't the slam-dunk solutions they're often sold as How to spot the red flags in permanent life insurance pitches Smart, tax-efficient ways to save for children and grandchildren Creative strategies for gifting assets that grow with the child The importance of balancing generosity with your own long-term goals Ideas to Ponder During Today's Episode Have you ever been pitched an “innovative” financial strategy that didn't feel quite right? What tipped you off? What's the most meaningful financial gift you've ever given—or received—as a child? If you could give one piece of financial wisdom to the next generation, what would it be?
