Podcasts about currencies

Join the conversation as we delve into the world of digital currencies and their potential impact on personal freedom. With the rise of central bank digital currencies and the increasing use of digital payment systems, are we heading towards a future where our financial transactions are constantly monitored and controlled? In this thought-provoking video, we explore the implications of digital currencies on individual autonomy and privacy, and ask the question: do digital currencies spell the end of personal freedom? From the benefits of convenience and efficiency to the risks of surveillance and manipulation, we examine the complex relationship between digital currencies and personal liberty. Whether you're a tech enthusiast, a financial expert, or simply someone concerned about the future of freedom, this video is for you. Tune in to learn more about the potential consequences of digital currencies on our personal freedom and what it means for our society.

What if everything you were taught about money is wrong?  Rob was in £50,000 of consumer debt by age 26, and learned the hard way, but today he exposes the nine money myths pushed by the system—from saving and investing to luck and hard work—and shares his personal SIM model for building wealth, arguing that not investing is more risky than investing, that money does not change you, and that anyone can create wealth with the right knowledge… BEST MOMENTS “Saving will never make you rich. It's impossible to save money and become wealthy and rich. Savers are losers. If you don't risk anything, you risk everything. If you think investing is risky, try not investing. The love of money is not the root of all evil. The root of all evil is evil” Exclusive community & resources:   For more EXCLUSIVE & unfiltered content to make, manage & multiply more money, join our private online education platform: Money.School →⁠ ⁠⁠https://money.school⁠   And if you'd like to meet 7 & 8 figure entrepreneurs, & scale to 6, 7 or 8 figures in your business or personal income, join us at our in-person Money Maker Summit Event (including EXCLUSIVE millionaire guests/masterminds sessions)  →⁠ ⁠⁠https://robmoore.live/mms⁠ 

Dr. Alex Pollock explains how monopoly money empowers the state to finance deficits and wars, and why legal tender laws should give way to free choice in money. He explores why genuine competitors—likely led by gold—would discipline issuers, noting central banks' renewed appetite for bullion as an emergent currency competition.Sponsored by Yousif Almoayyed.Recorded at the Mises Supporters Summit in Delray Beach, Florida, on October 17, 2025.

Tim Price of Price Value Partners (Citywire's #1 fund YTD & over 12 months) feels that the performance of gold this year is less a gold story than a currency one. Freezing Russia's reserves torpedoed the US's funding powers when it has $38tn debt to fund. Since then, central banks have been disinvesting US debt in favour of gold bullion. The fiat currency jig is up. We know what a kilogram is, but no longer what a dollar is. Tim also discusses the malign effect of over-regulation, a fantastic book by Dominic Frisby about gold, how investors can tell when gold and silver have gone high enough and why you should not put your faith in debt and cash.

MEEKNESS & HONOR — CURRENCIES OF THE KINGDOM | MAN OF PEACE

In this Week 42 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we review another turbulent week in the global ship recycling markets, shaped by volatile currencies, a softening steel market, and shifting regional sentiment across India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey. Global Market Overview Freight markets strengthened slightly as the Baltic Dry Index gained just over 1%, supported by Capesize, Panamax, and Dry segments. Oil prices continued to slide, closing near USD 57.38 per barrel, down 8% month-on-month and 18% year-on-year. Currencies stayed under pressure across the Sub-continent: the Indian rupee hovered near Rs 88.02 per USD, the Pakistani rupee weakened to PKR 283.6, the Bangladeshi taka slipped to BDT 122, and the Turkish lira traded close to TRY 42. Steel plate prices fluctuated across regions, with India around USD 389 per ton, Pakistan steady near USD 614, and Bangladesh holding around USD 519. Bangladesh After brief optimism, Chattogram slowed again. Local recyclers paused new purchases despite steel holding near USD 519 per ton and the taka weakening to BDT 122 per USD. Inventories continued to build while the market waited for political clarity and a new government direction. India Alang remained quiet as steel plates fell to USD 389 per ton and the rupee traded near Rs 88 per USD. Over 120,000 LDT of vessels arrived, but buyers mostly stayed away ahead of Diwali. Sentiment remains weak despite steady arrivals. Pakistan Inflation and cheaper Iranian steel imports pushed domestic plate prices down to USD 614 per ton. The rupee depreciated to PKR 283.6 per USD, and no yards have yet achieved Hong Kong Convention accreditation. Most buyers remain cautious and on hold. Turkey The Turkish lira closed around TRY 42 per USD. Offers were steady, but activity was limited as the year-end approaches and tonnage supply remains tight. Market Sentiment Volatility, inflation, and regulatory uncertainty continue to shape the global ship recycling landscape. India faces pricing pressure, Bangladesh is cautiously reawakening, Pakistan struggles with inflation and compliance, and Turkey stays muted.   For full details, vessel rankings, and port positions, download the GMS Weekly on our website or mobile app. Follow GMS on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter for daily updates.

Rob issues a stark warning that the banks want to own your home! Major financial institutions like BlackRock and Lloyd's are making huge moves to acquire billions in property, signalling that individual homeownership may become increasingly difficult for the next generation. Property prices in some areas of London are already down by up to 50%, indicating a massive market crash is already in motion.  This crisis, however, presents a huge opportunity for investors like you and Rob, who is actively competing with these institutions, to acquire assets that could double in value every 12-15 years, essentially playing the banks at their own game… BEST MOMENTS "The banks want to own your home." "The property market has already started to crash." "This could be the biggest opportunity maybe since 2008 or maybe ever in history."

US stocks opened higher yesterday, but then reversed course. Small caps underperformed, and market volatility rose amid credit concerns at regional banks. In Europe, Swiss and French equity markets outperformed, supported by positive corporate news and France temporarily avoiding a political crisis. Gold extended its record-breaking rally. The yield on the 10-year US Treasury fell below a key threshold, reflecting weak economic data and dovish comments from Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller. Mathieu Racheter, Head of Equity Strategy, shares his insights on bank earnings and talks about US vs European banks. Tim Gagie, Head of FX & PM Solutions in Geneva, discusses key considerations amid the rally in precious metals and the recent pullback in the US dollar.(00:00) - Introduction: Lucija Caculovic, Product & Investment Content (00:34) - Markets wrap-up: Mike Rauber, Product & Investment Content (06:42) - Earnings season: Mathieu Racheter, Head of Equity Strategy Research (09:25) - Currencies and metals: Tim Gagie, Head of FX/PM PB Geneva (13:46) - Closing remarks: Lucija Caculovic, Product & Investment Content Would you like to support this show?

Rob puts the UK government on blast for its economic mismanagement, explaining that disposable income has never been lower since World War II and that the UK's debt is at a record high.  In its place he offers ten common-sense solutions, starting with a proposal to fire the majority of the civil service, which has grown by 100,000 employees since 2020 at a cost of £20 billion, despite the economy's poor performance… BEST MOMENTS "The national debt in the UK and the US are at record highs and perhaps the biggest crash in history is coming." "I am sorry but I honestly believe my teenage kid could do a better job of managing the economy." "There is no government funded. There is only taxpayer funded."

In this Week 41 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we review another dramatic week across global ship recycling, marked by geopolitical uncertainty, volatile currencies, and weakening steel fundamentals across India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey.   Global Market Overview • Global markets endured a turbulent week as renewed Middle East tensions and wider economic jitters weighed on sentiment. • Oil prices fell further to around USD 59.81 per barrel, nearly 18 percent lower than the same time last year. • The Baltic Dry Index rose slightly by 13 points, supported by Capesize and Panamax gains, while smaller vessels softened overall. • Currencies remained under pressure across the sub-continent, with the Indian rupee approaching 89, the Pakistani rupee at 283.20, and the Turkish lira at 41.82 to the dollar. • Steel plate prices fluctuated across regions, with most markets showing mild declines through the week.   Regional Highlights Bangladesh: Activity is finally showing signs of recovery after nearly two quarters of an HKC-induced standstill. A few well-priced sales, including a Capesize bulker, were concluded from cash-buyer inventories as local recyclers with open credit lines returned to action. The Taka weakened to about BDT 121.55 per USD, and steel plates held steady near USD 519 per ton. Market sentiment is cautiously improving as attention shifts toward national elections scheduled for early 2026.   India: Fundamentals continue to weaken. Steel prices slipped another USD 7 per ton to around USD 391, while the rupee eased to Rs 88.75 per USD, moving closer to the Rs 90 mark. Despite this, activity stayed strong with more than 10 vessels totaling nearly 120,000 LDT arriving in Alang this week, including the Bow Cedar and Shaurya II. India remains the region's volume leader but continues to face pricing pressure.   Pakistan: The headline says it all: War = 2 / HKC = 0. Despite adopting the Hong Kong Convention more than eight months ago, no yard has yet achieved accreditation. Ongoing border tensions and tariff uncertainty are straining local economics. The Pakistani rupee weakened to PKR 283.20 per USD, while steel plates eased to about USD 616.80 per ton. With little new tonnage arriving, Gadani yards remain largely inactive.   Turkey: The Turkish lira lost another 30 basis points to close at TRY 41.82 per USD. Although local recyclers remain relatively steady, tonnage availability is limited as most deep-sea units continue heading for sub-continent destinations instead of EUSRR-regulated yards.   Market Sentiment: Volatility, political uncertainty, and fluctuating currencies continue to define the ship-recycling landscape. India holds the fort, Bangladesh is gradually reawakening, Pakistan struggles with instability, and Turkey keeps sliding lower.

Singapore shares slipped today to track declines seen in Asia. The Straits Times Index was down 1.2% at 4,373.88 points at 2.20pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$1.18B seen in the broader market. In terms of counters to watch, we have UOL and Singapore Land Group, after the 666-unit condominium Skye at Holland proved to be the strongest project launch in 2025, selling 98.8 per cent of units over the weekend. Elsewhere, from how shares of mainboard-listed InnoTek rallied on the back of order wins for Nvidia and Shenzhen-listed IEIT Systems, to how US-China trade frictions sent Asian currencies to a five-month low, more international headlines remained in focus. On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian dived into the key developments to watch for the day.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rob takes this opportunity to strongly advise against using debit cards, arguing that credit cards are superior for general spending for five key reasons.  For starters, debit card use does not build credit, making credit card use essential for improving your credit score, which is important for future borrowing like mortgages. Furthermore, credit cards offer better protection against fraud, often making the credit card company jointly liable under the Consumer Credit Act. But listen in as Rob reveals the ultimate benefit… BEST MOMENTS "People don't realise that debit cards are only good for one thing." "Number three proves actually that credit cards, if you use them well, are actually safer than debit cards." "You want the banks to take the risk, not you to take the risk."

Rob cracks open the outrageous and numerous taxes levied in the UK, intensely detailing 40 different taxes that could significantly impact your salary.  He explains why the tax system is structured to “double and triple tax” individuals—on earning, spending, life, death, and both national and local levels—with the top five taxes being Income Tax, National Insurance, VAT, Council Tax, and Corporation Tax. As a solution, Rob offers a crucial method to legally your lower tax bills… BEST MOMENTS "The outrageous amounts of tax you pay in the UK, not just how much you pay, which is outrageous, but the different types of tax you pay, which is double outrageous." "You're taxed when you're alive and then you're taxed when you're dead with inheritance tax." "There's only one way to save tax... you can only buy anything after tax when you start a company."

In this Week 40 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we review the latest movements across global ship recycling. As October begins, markets reflect a sharp slowdown with weaker currencies, falling oil, and softer steel prices across India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey. Global Market Overview • Global trading indices fell by about sixteen percent, marking the sharpest weekly decline since January. • Oil prices eased to around sixty dollars per barrel, about twenty percent lower than the same time last year. • Currencies remained under pressure, with the Indian rupee near eighty-nine, the Pakistani rupee around two-hundred eighty-three, and the Turkish lira at forty-one point seven to the dollar. • Steel prices stayed mixed. India slipped to about four-hundred and two dollars per ton, Bangladesh held near five-hundred and twenty, and Pakistan stayed firm around six-hundred and twenty. Regional Highlights Bangladesh: Activity remained limited as local yards stayed mostly idle. The market continues to absorb the impact of HKC upgrades, limited supply, and political uncertainty. Steel prices held steady near USD 520 per ton. India: Alang faced another difficult week. The rupee reached a record low of eighty-eight point seven-four, and domestic steel fell to about USD 402 per ton. One sale was reported, the Bow Cedar from Odfjell, at USD 940 per LDT supported by strong stainless-steel content. Pakistan: Prices remain the highest in the region at roughly USD 620 per ton, but large LDT units remain scarce. Inflation increased to 5.4 percent and HKC approval work continues at Gadani. Turkey: The Turkish lira weakened to about TRY 41.7 as inflation crossed thirty-three percent. Local recyclers continue to face tight financing and limited tonnage availability heading into the fourth quarter. Market sentiment stayed weak through the start of October as declining fundamentals, currency pressure, and limited supply weighed on all major recycling destinations.

Rob explains why something worse than a recession is imminent, citing highly credible billionaires and investors like Ray Dalio and Michael Burry, the latter of whom successfully predicted the 2008 banking crash and is now shorting major companies like Apple and Nvidia.  These financial heavyweights, along with Warren Buffett are behaving in ways that signal a potential crisis, with the stock market shown to be likely overvalued and real estate, particularly in London, already seeing dramatic price drops, indicating that this historic crash could present an unprecedented opportunity for contrarian investors who are prepared to buy into the market when others are fearful. BEST MOMENTS “Something worse than a recession is coming!” "Be greedy when others are fearful and fearful when others are greedy." "Everything in the world is neither good nor bad, it just depends on who."

In today's episode, I share why time and energy are the true currencies of success and how our response to fear often cuts us off from their flow. By learning to clear interference, we can turn minutes into meaningful investments that reflect our values instead of our anxieties. I explain how aligning what we do, say, think, feel, and believe allows us to extend our purpose, protect our energy, and avoid the costly trap of avoidance. Through clarity, measurement, and integration, we can operate like time billionaires, compounding fulfillment, profitability, and joy over the course of our lives.

A former IFA and credit card insider joins Rob tp reveals the proven, six-step strategy to repair even the worst credit and unlock the secret to borrowing potentially hundreds of thousands of pounds at zero percent interest on credit cards—and keeping it that way for years.  Learn the surprising truth about debit cards, the power of credit utilisation, and the hidden "game" of credit scoring they don't teach in school. If you want to master your money and stop paying interest, this is your ultimate blueprint BEST MOMENTS "The way a drug dealer would work is that they'd give you free drugs. So you get you hooked on it. And it's just the same thing." "The best thing to do is have as many cards as you can and utilise them. And that's actually better than zero."

In this Week 39 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we unpack the latest ship-recycling market trends, freight dynamics, currency and steel movements, and key regional updates from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey. This week's theme: Disconnect. Global Market Overview Dry bulk freight turned volatile: Baltic Dry Index ended the week with a net 2.5 % gain, driven by Capesize strength of about 5.5 %, even as daily readings slipped late in the week. Oil softened: WTI crude fell 1 % to around USD 65 per barrel, pressured by Kurdistan resuming crude exports after 2.5 years. Currencies weakened: Indian rupee dropped to INR 88.62, Bangladesh taka to BDT 122.04, and Turkish lira to TRY 41.58; only the Pakistani rupee strengthened, to PKR 282.50. Steel plate prices mostly flatlined, except India slid USD 15 to USD 409.20 per ton, weighing on sentiment. Bangladesh Chattogram stayed the quietest sub-continent market. Recycled steel failed to move, and larger LDT tonnage kept diverting to competitors. The taka closed at BDT 122.04, while 18 yards are HKC-compliant with more approvals expected next month. India Alang faced a tough week. The rupee weakened to INR 88.62, briefly near 89, and steel prices dropped to USD 409.20 per ton. Some speculative deals, like the 4,810 LDT container Niigata Trader at USD 480/LT LDT, look stretched as fundamentals deteriorate. Ongoing U.S. tariffs and sanctions continue to cloud Q4 prospects. Pakistan Gadani brightened the regional picture. Several bulkers changed hands, including Rising Harrier at USD 445/LT LDT and Puteri Kirana at USD 390/LT LDT (“as is” Surabaya). Strong local steel prices and a PKR strengthening to 282.50 support momentum, even as HKC compliance work continues. Turkey Activity remained subdued. The lira slipped to TRY 41.58, and local steel prices edged lower, keeping sentiment soft. Beach Breakdown With freight rates mixed and steel prices uneven, regional ship-recycling markets show a clear disconnect between fundamentals and bidding.

This urgent broadcast is a stark warning to say no to the new digital ID being pushed by UK Labour leader Keir Starmer, a program which Rob argues was never voted for and could lead to extreme population control.  Rob presents five major downsides, including increased control through connecting systems like a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), ULEZ cameras, and the Online Safety Act, and warns that this could lead to the freezing of accounts, travel restrictions, fines, penalties at source, and massive data breaches, ultimately limiting freedom and financial sovereignty BEST MOMENTS "Warning! Say no to the new digital ID. Keir Starmer, Prime Minister of the UK, leader of Labour, is trying to force us all to have a digital ID." "What if they don't like anything you post on social media? Well, they don't have to arrest you. They don't have to imprison you. They can just freeze and red flag and cancel your digital ID. You are no longer a citizen. You do not have any rights." "The only solution now for your personal freedom is building financial freedom, even better than that, financial fluidity."

TradFi FX markets are slow, expensive and often lack liquidity for direct swaps between different world currencies, having to route through USD pairs. While crypto could technically solve pairing through AMM pools, those needed to be arbitraged in order to reflect TradFi rates. With 15 fully-backed stablecoins, Mento is building the largest FX infrastructure, bringing world currencies onchain through its robust multi-currency stablecoin platform. In order to provide traders with accurate real-word FX rates, Mento employs FPMM (fixed-price market makers) which gather offchain data from multiple oracles. Instant settlement, cross-border, at a fraction of a cost of conventional remittance providers, while also avoiding traditional banking limitations.Backed by strong on- & off-ramp integrations, Mento also caters towards day-to-day use cases, empowering locals and businesses to diversify their FX exposure without the hurdles of TradFi. Mento enables smooth cross-currency transactions without traditional banking limitations, unlocking DeFi yield for a wide variety of currencies.Topics covered in this episode:Markus' background, from TradFi to DeFiUnbanking the bankedStarting a stablecoin protocol on CeloThe role of stablecoinsFX markets & Mento's designFPMM vs. AMMMento's target audienceCentralised vs. decentralised stablecoinsMento governanceM0's approachIntegrating with banking systemsEpisode links:⁠Markus Franke on XMento on XCelo on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Rob gets real and open about the impact of Labour's proposed tax policies on landlords and the housing market in the UK, arguing that their approach, which includes taxing landlords and introducing a national property tax, is detrimental to both property owners and renters, exacerbating the existing housing shortage. As one of the UK's most prominent property developers, he gets candid about the need for government support and incentives for landlords to help lower rents and stimulate housing development, critiquing the government's handling of immigration and social housing, and highlighting the disparity between asylum seekers receiving guaranteed rent and long-standing UK residents having to be placed on waiting lists BEST MOMENTS "Labour are causing the house price crash. Labour hate landlords. They are taxing them to death." "High rents are not caused by landlords being greedy. High rents are caused by the soaring costs of energy and water and the soaring inflation and taxation." "If Labour were smart, they would go, hey, landlords, here's a little bit of tax relief."

It's tough to be the best in business while also conducting your personal relationships successfully, and in this episode, Rob looks at the many complexities involved, exploring the unique challenges and dynamics that arise when balancing personal and professional lives. He also addresses the significance of having a strong support system, whether in personal relationships or business partnerships, and the value of contrasting traits that can foster growth and accountability, as well as insights on parenting, the impact of wealth on relationships, and the delicate balance of maintaining professionalism with employees while fostering a caring workplace culture KEY TAKEAWAYS Success in relationships is subjective; staying in an unhappy relationship for years can be considered a failure, regardless of the number of years spent together. Entrepreneurs should seek partners who are grounded and realistic To prevent children from becoming entitled, it's important to challenge them and encourage them to earn their own money Successful business partnerships often involve individuals with complementary skills and a shared vision Employees should be viewed as individuals working for themselves rather than for the employer BEST MOMENTS "It takes a certain type of person to be with an entrepreneur. You've got to love variety."  "If you have a hole in your soul, no human alive can make you happy."  "I think the most destructive force is an entrepreneur married to an entrepreneur."  "No one works for me; everyone works for themselves."  "Wisdom is knowing the difference between what you think you want and what is good for you."

In this second half of my conversation with Alexander Marino, Director of U.S. Tax Law at Moody's Tax, we get into the nitty-gritty of what it really means to exit the U.S. tax system, whether you're renouncing citizenship or handing back a long-term green card.This is one of those areas where emotion, tax policy, and real-life consequences all collide. Alex explains the U.S. exit tax (and how to avoid it), what being a “covered expatriate” actually means, and why some clients are better off paying millions in exit tax now rather than tens of millions in estate tax later. We also discuss some common myths like assuming a high-tax country means you're covered, or thinking a long-expired green card means you're off the hook.The key thing to note here is: this isn't about being dramatic. For many U.S. expats living in Ireland or abroad, stepping away from the U.S. tax net is a practical financial decision—but it has to be done right. Alex shares how his team helps people navigate this process and why now might be the best window in history for high-net-worth individuals to consider it.If you're feeling stuck or unsure about your U.S. status, don't put it in the “too hard” basket. As always, professional advice is essential but hopefully this episode gives you a strong foundation to start asking the right questions.This is Part 2 of a two-part conversation with Alexander Marino. For Part 1, make sure you subscribed to the podcast.Main Topics discussed in this Episode:Understanding the U.S. Exit Tax: We unpack how the U.S. exit tax works and why avoiding it comes down to good planning, not good luck.Covered Expatriate Rules: Alex explains what makes someone a “covered expatriate” and the costly consequences that can follow.Green Card Holders Are Not Off the Hook: Letting a green card expire doesn't end your U.S. tax obligations—many are surprised to learn they're still on the hook.When Tax Treaties Don't Protect You: Tax treaties help avoid double tax, but they offer no protection when only the U.S. taxes an event.Why Now May Be the Smartest Time to Act: Current exemption levels make this an unusually favourable moment to plan an exit from the U.S. tax system.Get in touch with Alex Marino:Email: amarino@moodystax.comWebsite: https://moodysprivateclient.com/team/marino-alexander/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexander-marino-45a76b26/*****If you loved this episode or have a similar story, we'd love to hear from you!

In this episode, I break down the three currencies that truly define wealth as a man and father: presence, leadership, and financial provision.So many men get caught chasing money as the only measure of success, but the truth is that wealth isn't just financial—it's your ability to show up fully for the people you love, lead with clarity and strength, and create a stable foundation for your family's future.For me, wealth is the ability to be present. And when presence combines with leadership and provision, you create a life where your family doesn't just survive, they thrive.Tune in to hear how to recalibrate your priorities, shift your definition of success, and live a life of true wealth as a man, partner, and father.

We celebrate our 400th episode with a song we love. It's a standout for the original band in a number of fascinating ways, and has a cover that turns everything on its head to brilliant effect. Strange Currencies, originally by R.E.M., covered by Louisa Stancioff.  Rich got the name wrong during the episode, but the outro music is Rumble by Link Wray. He was probably overcome by the reverb.
