Podcasts about Credit

A conversation with friend of the show Will Harris got my wheels turning. He pointed out something he was seeing in the UK press — Trump getting credit for what many are calling Biden's Gaza peace deal. And yeah, I had missed that particular discourse, but it didn't take long to see that the split wasn't just overseas. It's right here too. Some are arguing that the framework for this agreement was already in place under Biden, but now it's Trump stepping in and sealing the deal. That's not an unusual pattern in politics — one team builds, another finishes — but the way the Biden side is reacting is worth exploring.Let's be honest: getting a Middle East peace deal done is about the hardest thing you can try to accomplish in diplomacy. Saying you have a plan is one thing — implementing it in a region with as much distrust and complexity as the Middle East is a whole different story. It's like drafting a diet and fitness routine and assuming the results will match the spreadsheet. Biden's people floated frameworks, sure, but they couldn't make the deal happen. I suspect that's because they thought it would require applying pressure on Israel to end the war — and they didn't want to be seen doing that. They wanted the outcome without owning the action.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Then there's the idea that Biden deserved the credit even if Trump got the win. And this is where I find it all a little rich. Because I remember 2020. The Trump administration rolled out Operation Warp Speed — arguably one of the biggest policy successes of his term — and when Biden took over, they went out of their way to discredit everything Trump did. The narrative was that Biden had to rebuild the whole vaccination effort from scratch, even when it would've been politically smart to share credit or even use it to jab Trump from the left on vaccines as that issue started to shift.Now the roles are reversed. The Biden team worked on the peace framework and now wants credit — even though the Trump administration finished the job. It's not that I think they deserve nothing. There's a case to be made that this deal, if it holds, spans both administrations. That the effort to find a resolution to an ugly, years-long war included meaningful contributions from both. But if you live by the sword of discrediting your predecessor at every turn, don't be shocked when you die by it too.I don't think we're about to see the Trump team break out the thank-you cards — and if a Nobel Peace Prize comes out of this, it's going to have Trump's name on it. Still, if they were smart, they'd acknowledge — maybe off the record — that having a working framework didn't hurt. But the real lesson here is that a plan is just that — a plan. The deal is what matters. And once again, it turns out being the closer counts more than drawing up the play.Chapters00:00 - Intro03:13 - Gaza Peace Deal11:47 - Update12:04 - NYC Polling13:58 - Letitia James18:18 - Texas21:14 - Interview with Kenneth Vogel54:28- Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Somewhere across the world, a woman is lying awake at 3am, staring at the ceiling while numbers spin through her mind. Bills. Mortgage. Credit cards. Her stomach churns with that familiar knot of worry that's become her constant companion. She's worked hard her entire life, done everything she was told would lead to security, yet here she is, trapped in a prison made of stress and sleepless nights about money. Tomorrow morning, she'll wake up exhausted, put on a brave face, and pretend everything is fine while that weight sits heavy on her chest. Sound familiar? But in another part of the world, a man walks to his mailbox without that tightness in his shoulders, opens his bills without his heart racing, and sleeps peacefully because money has become his friend instead of his tormentor. He wasn't born wealthy. He didn't inherit millions. He simply discovered something that changed everything - how to free himself from the invisible cage that money worry creates around the human spirit. Today, you discover that same freedom. We're going to dissolve those chains forever and awaken something inside you that's been waiting your whole life to be set free. 

Credit cards aren't the enemy—but how you use them determines whether they work for you or against you. In this episode, Paige breaks down how to build a healthy, empowered relationship with credit cards so they become a tool for your financial growth instead of a trap keeping you stuck in overspending, stress, and guilt. You'll learn: • The six essential habits of women who use credit cards responsibly (without slipping into debt) • Why paying your cards off in full doesn't always mean you're in the clear • How to spot if you're secretly living in the “credit card float”  • The mindset shifts that break emotional attachment to credit cards so you can finally feel free and in control again If you've ever told yourself, “But I pay them off every month,” or “I just use them for the points,” this episode will change the way you think about credit cards forever. It's time to use credit cards in a way that supports your goals, your peace, and your financial power.   Work with Paige: Join Crush Your Credit Card Debt Use code OOPOD50 at checkout to get 50% off your investment ONLINE MASTERCLASS: Why smart, successful women overspend - and what really works the break the cycle   Join Overcoming Overspending HERE Resources mentioned in this episode: Start a free 34-day trial with my favorite budgting software, YNAB (You Need A Budget) and get a free month when you subscribe   Connect with Paige Online: Her Website IG: @overcoming_overspending TikTok: @overcoming_overspending Subscribe to Paige's YouTube Channel

Kerry Lutz sits down with Patrick Mueller to break down the latest job numbers and what they really mean for the economy. Patrick highlights signs of strength in the natural resources sector and the return of major companies to U.S. soil, while also pointing to trade negotiations that could expand market opportunities. But behind the positive headlines, cracks are showing. Credit card debt is hitting alarming levels, interest rate cuts are fueling risky consumer behavior, and inflation continues to erode purchasing power. They explore how these pressures could worsen before they improve. The conversation also turns to the global economy and the disruptive role of AI in the job market. Even as tech companies post record profits, layoffs are reshaping the industry. Kerry shares details on a new initiative with Harvard aimed at promoting vocational education—an urgent step toward preparing workers for the future.

Tonight, somewhere across the world, a woman is lying awake at 3am, staring at the ceiling while numbers spin through her mind. Bills. Mortgage. Credit cards. Her stomach churns with that familiar knot of worry that's become her constant companion. She's worked hard her entire life, done everything she was told would lead to security, yet here she is, trapped in a prison made of stress and sleepless nights about money. Tomorrow morning, she'll wake up exhausted, put on a brave face, and pretend everything is fine while that weight sits heavy on her chest. Sound familiar? But in another part of the world, a man walks to his mailbox without that tightness in his shoulders, opens his bills without his heart racing, and sleeps peacefully because money has become his friend instead of his tormentor. He wasn't born wealthy. He didn't inherit millions. He simply discovered something that changed everything - how to free himself from the invisible cage that money worry creates around the human spirit. Today, you discover that same freedom. We're going to dissolve those chains forever and awaken something inside you that's been waiting your whole life to be set free.   

Two companies collapsed last month. One sold used cars, the other distributed brake pads and spark plugs. Both issued debt rated AAA. Now their bonds are trading at cents on the dollar—and Wall Street is pretending not to notice.In this video, we dig into down the bankruptcies of Tricolor Holdings and First Brands Group to understand what they reveal about private credit, and why supposedly safe securities are starting to look a lot less safe. We'll look at hidden leverage, double-pledged collateral, shadow banking, and the growing disconnect between risk and reward in today's credit markets.Patrick's Books:Statistics For The Trading Floor: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3eerLA0⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Derivatives For The Trading Floor: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://amzn.to/3cjsyPF⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Corporate Finance: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3fn3rvC ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ways To Support The Channel:Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinance⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/patrickboyle

When we do something good as Christians, who gets the credit? In this lesson from 2 Thessalonians 1, Paul says that God does. It's God who deserves the glory for these Thessalonian Christians, and it's God who deserves the credit for every good thing we do too.

Financial blunders aren't new. Consider this: the web portal Excite once passed on buying Google for just $750,000. Today, Google's parent company is worth over $2 trillion. That, my friends, is a legendary missed opportunity.Most of us won't miss out on trillions, but we've all made financial mistakes. The good news is that God's Word offers wisdom for recovery and direction when we stumble.Learning from FailureScripture reminds us that falling isn't the end for those who walk with God:“For the righteous falls seven times and rises again” (Proverbs 24:16).“For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you” (Psalm 86:5).“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God … and it will be given him” (James 1:5).Failure can be a stepping stone when we let God guide us forward. With that encouragement, here are 10 financial mistakes to avoid—and biblical wisdom to help you course-correct.1. Borrowing from Your 401(k)It feels like “borrowing from yourself,” but it often masks overspending or debt. While repaying, you may miss out on employer matches and the compounding growth that comes with them. Worse, leaving your job could trigger taxes and penalties.2. Claiming Social Security Too EarlyStarting at 62, benefits are reduced by up to 30%—for life. If possible, wait until full retirement age (or beyond) for a larger monthly check that lasts as long as you do.3. Only Paying the Minimum on Credit CardsA $5,000 balance at 20% interest can take nearly a decade to pay off with minimum payments, costing more than $8,000 in interest. Pay extra and utilize debt payoff strategies, such as the snowball or avalanche method.4. Delaying Retirement SavingsCompound interest rewards the early saver. Even small contributions in your 20s can grow into a significant nest egg. Don't panic if you're starting late—just start now.5. Overextending Yourself for Your KidsHelping with college, weddings, or down payments shouldn't jeopardize your own financial stability. Generosity is good, but if you sacrifice retirement now, you may depend on your kids later.6. Going It Alone Without Wise CounselMany sell low during downturns because they lack guidance. Proverbs 15:22 says, “Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.” Seek out wise, faith-based financial advice.7. Co-Signing a LoanScripture warns: “One who lacks sense gives a pledge and puts up security in the presence of his neighbor” (Proverbs 17:18). About 40% of co-signers end up paying the loan themselves. Be wise in your generosity.8. Quitting School Too SoonEducation—whether a four-year degree, trade school, or certification—equips you with marketable skills. Think of it as an investment in your future, not just a cost.9. Buying a TimeshareTimeshares are marketed as affordable luxury, but often come with steep fees, little flexibility, and low resale value. They're rarely the “investment” they claim to be.10. Falling for ScamsScammers prey on fear, urgency, and greed. Whether through fake calls, emails, or investment pitches, their goal is always the same—to separate you from your money. Be vigilant and discerning.Walking Forward in FreedomJesus warned His disciples: “I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves” (Matthew 10:16).Wise stewardship isn't about never failing—it's about learning, leaning on God's wisdom, and moving forward faithfully. With His help, you can recover from mistakes and grow into a more faithful steward of His resources.———————————————————————————————————————At FaithFi, we believe money is a tool to advance God's Kingdom.

On this week's episode of Passive Income Playbook, Pascal Wagner interviews Peter Sack. They dig into why Chicago Atlantic targets underserved private credit niches, especially state-by-state cannabis lending where limited competition can mean first-lien structures at lower leverage with mid-teens to ~20% returns, plus classic lender protections. Peter explains how regulatory moats, disciplined underwriting, and downside focus beat “sexy” equity stories, and how potential legalization would likely trigger refinancings, prepayment fees, and warrant upside rather than harm. They also compare private funds to public options through Chicago Atlantic's BDC and mortgage REIT tickers, LIEN and REFI, and outline what LPs should evaluate in credit managers from lien position to non-accruals and third-party administration.
