In a world spiraling into darkness, one man stood out—not by strength or status, but because he found grace in the eyes of God.

Don and Tom tear into the lunacy of financial predictions—starting with famed doomsayer Nouriel Roubini suddenly turning optimistic (is that a good sign or a terrifying one?). Then it's onto Ron Baron and his wildly volatile, high-fee Barron Partners Fund, which beat the QQQ—barely—by taking massive concentrated bets on Tesla and SpaceX. Finally, they answer listener questions about portfolio diversification, international exposure, and outrageously overpriced 401(k) fund options (Nationwide, we're looking at you).

Don and Tom unpack Morningstar's latest “5 of the Best” investing methods, praising the simplicity of balanced and target-date funds but warning against high-fee versions. They emphasize that no portfolio fits everyone and push for low-cost index solutions. Listeners call in with 401k rollover questions and political discomfort around financial firms—sparking a candid, occasionally funny chat about ethics, emotions, and retirement realities.

The Strategic Defence Review implies significant increases in spending and Sir Keir Starmer has insisted the money will be found but without explaining how. Will any new money for defence be well spent and how will Starmer and Rachel Reeves fund the increases? Is defence a more urgent priority than other needs such as social care and the NHS? What will be the political consequences? And is the UK heading for war or investing to avoid one? We attempt to answer these epic questions and disagree in a constructive spirit. Hosted on Acast.

We all want the best for our kids, but knowing what's truly best isn't always easy.You've probably heard it—or said it yourself: “I just want my kids to have what I didn't.” It sounds noble, but it can sometimes lead to financial trouble. Today, we'll talk with Dr. Art Rainer about how that mindset can push parents into debt.Dr. Art Rainer is the founder of the Institute for Christian Financial Health and Christian Money Solutions. He is a regular contributor here at Faith & Finance and the author of Money in the Light of Eternity: What the Bible Says about Your Financial Purpose.6 Things That Can Lead Loving Parents Into DebtRaising kids is one of the most joyful and rewarding callings in life, but it can also be financially challenging. As parents, we want to give our children the best: opportunities, experiences, and resources that help them flourish. But sometimes, even with the best intentions, we can fall into financial traps that lead to debt.Here are six common ways loving parents may unintentionally sabotage their finances—and how to avoid them.1. Trying to Keep Up with the JonesesIt's a familiar struggle: your neighbor buys designer clothes for their kids or sends them to an elite private school, and suddenly you feel the need to do the same. But appearances can be deceiving—many people fund their lifestyle with debt. Chasing someone else's standard is a never-ending race, and the finish line keeps moving. Be cautious of modeling your spending after others who may not be living within their means.2. Falling into the Social Media Comparison TrapSocial media only shows the highlight reel. Perfect family vacations, overachieving kids, and pristine homes can tempt you to measure your life against a filtered illusion. These comparisons can spark discontentment and drive unnecessary purchases just to keep up appearances or ease the guilt of not "measuring up." Be mindful of how much your scrolling influences your spending.3. Believing Your Kids Need to Have It AllFrom travel teams to private lessons and elite camps, extracurricular activities have become a costly arms race. While these opportunities can be beneficial, they shouldn't come at the expense of your financial health. Don't believe the lie that your child will fall behind if they don't do everything. It's okay to say no, for the sake of your budget and your family's peace.4. Prioritizing Career Success Over Character DevelopmentThere's nothing wrong with wanting your children to succeed in school and in life, but academic or career accomplishments should never come at the cost of neglecting their hearts. Investing in your child's character, through time, guidance, and godly instruction, often requires less money but more intentional effort. And in the end, it matters far more.5. Overcompensating for What You Didn't HaveIf you lacked certain things growing up, it's natural to want your kids to have more. Whether it was a nicer bike, newer clothes, or a first car, those memories can shape how you respond as a parent. But giving in to every request—even on credit—can backfire. Love doesn't always mean saying “yes.” Sometimes it means exercising the wisdom to say “not right now.”6. Forgetting the Value of Doing WithoutNot getting what you wanted as a kid may have helped you grow. Maybe you learned creativity, resilience, or the value of work through those experiences. Don't rob your children of the same opportunity. Saying no might actually prepare them better for life than always saying yes.Loving your children doesn't mean giving them everything. It means stewarding your finances in a way that honors God and serves your family's long-term well-being. Avoiding debt is one of the best gifts you can give your children—it provides stability, models wisdom, and frees your family to give generously.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I called about our whole life insurance policy. We've paid for 10 years and only have 19,000 saved with a 150,000 death benefit. My husband provides most of our income.What is the best first credit card for my college-aged daughter?Can I work and collect my full Social Security, or is there a wage cap that I need to worry about?

Are you holding your firm back by being too frugal with your business tools? Many law firm owners fall into the trap of cutting corners on essential tools, forcing their teams to cobble together inefficient processes that ultimately create drag throughout the entire organization.   In this episode, Melissa explains the difference between “expense thinking” and “investment thinking.” Expense thinking focuses on saving money right now, keeping firms stuck in reactive survival mode. Investment thinking, by contrast, considers what the business needs to operate at a high level both today and in the future.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.velocitywork.com/310

Erick Fedde, a former 1st Round pick for the Nats in 2014, shutout his old club on Friday night in D.C in the Cardinals 10-0 victory. Mark & Al evaluate Fedde's masterpiece, where he only gave up six hits on 109 pitches. This is the second time Fedde dominated his original team as he did so last May in a seven inning effort for the White Sox. (12:05) While we are here, Patrick Corbin threw a good outing on Friday night for Texas. Corbin has a ERA of 3.13 for the Rangers this season and Mark tries to lend an explanation for the better numbers this season. (17:30) Mitchell Parker had a third consecutive poor start as only has lasted four innings. Parker had immediate trouble as he walked the first two St. Luis batters he faced and both came across to score that frame. (26:40) The relief pitching struggled again and after the game Lucas Sims was released. Sims only recorded two outs in the top of the 8th and issued four walks that led to three Cardinal runs. He leaves his brief time with the organization with a 13.86 ERA.

Radio personality Dave Ramsey is a huge name in the personal finance niche. While he's celebrated for helping countless listeners take control of their finances, many of his recommendations have sparked debate within the financial planning community.  I'm going to break down six of the most controversial opinions promoted by Ramsey, including advice on retirement withdrawals, debt payoff strategies, Roth accounts, investing approaches, mortgages, and the use of credit cards. I will also weigh up the pros and cons of Ramsey's methods, highlighting where they might help and where they might hinder your journey towards a successful retirement.  Whether you're a Dave Ramsey fan or just curious about best practices for financial wellness, this episode offers a thoughtful, practical take on some hotly contested money moves. You will want to hear this episode if you're interested in... [0:00] Exploring Dave Ramsey's financial advice and when it might not work for you. [07:07] Contribute to your retirement plan to at least match company contributions while managing high-interest debt. [09:07] Prioritize pretax 401(k) contributions for potential tax savings and growth, especially for high earners and those nearing retirement. [13:57] Some active funds may outperform the market, but it's challenging. Paying off all debt immediately may not always be ideal. [17:43] The problem with cash or debit use and envelope budgeting to control spending and avoid debt. [20:11] Limiting credit card use could cause missed benefits. Debunking Controversial Dave Ramsey Financial Advice In the world of personal finance, few names are as recognized as Dave Ramsey. He's helped countless listeners reclaim control of their money, but not all his advice sits comfortably with financial professionals. This week, I'm exploring several of Ramsey's most controversial recommendations, offering candid insight into where these strategies may fall short for those planning a secure retirement. 1. The 8% Retirement Withdrawal Rule is Riskier Than It Seems Dave Ramsey suggests that retirees can safely withdraw 8% of their portfolio annually. He justifies this by assuming long-term market returns of 11-12%. The problem is that average long-term returns are generally projected in the 6-8% range, and those figures often require heavy equity exposure, something unsuitable for most retirees due to the risk of major market downturns. The more widely accepted “safe withdrawal rate” is between 4 and 5%, supported by decades of research. Relying on Ramsey's higher figure may rapidly deplete retirement savings, especially during bear markets. Retirees should consider their investment mix and plan for longevity, erring on the side of caution to avoid outliving their assets. 2. Pay Off Debt, But Not at the Expense of Retirement Savings One of Ramsey's hallmark principles is eliminating all debt before focusing on retirement contributions. While high-interest debt like credit cards should indeed be a priority, neglecting retirement savings, especially employer-matched 401(k) contributions, means missing out on invaluable compounding growth and free money from your employer. Ideally, individuals should strive for a balanced approach: aggressively tackle high-interest debt while contributing enough to their workplace retirement plan to secure the full employer match, and, if possible, work towards saving 10-20% of salary for retirement. 3. All Roth, All the Time? Not Necessarily Ramsey strongly favors Roth accounts for retirement savings, arguing that after-tax contributions and tax-free withdrawals offer valuable benefits. While Roth accounts can be powerful, particularly for young savers or those in lower tax brackets. For higher earners, often in their peak earning years, the upfront tax deduction of pre-tax 401(k) or IRA contributions can provide meaningful savings. Since many retirees drop into a lower tax bracket after leaving the workforce, traditional accounts can be more tax-efficient for certain households. Morrissey advises tailoring the choice to individual circumstances, considering both current and expected future tax rates. 4. Active vs. Passive Investing Ramsey promotes active mutual fund management and even suggests that up-front mutual fund commissions are worthwhile. In the last decade, though study after study has shown that most active fund managers fail to outperform inexpensive index (passive) funds after fees. With some actively managed mutual funds charging fees of over 1%, the compounding effect of those costs can dramatically diminish returns over decades. Passive investing, through low-cost index funds, allows investors to keep more of their money and often experience better outcomes. The same is true for mutual fund commissions; with so many no-load, low-fee options available, there's little justification for paying unnecessary charges. 5. Mortgage Payoff Strategies Ramsey encourages paying off all debt, including mortgages, as quickly as possible and recommends only taking out 15-year mortgages. While debt freedom is a worthy goal, for many, low-interest mortgage debt (especially at rates under 5%) isn't necessarily worth rushing to eliminate. Investing surplus funds in the stock market historically yields higher returns than today's mortgage rates. Additionally, restricting home purchases to what's affordable on a 15-year mortgage makes homeownership unattainable for many. It's more beneficial to keep total debt payments below 35% of gross income and focus on long-term wealth accumulation. 6. Ditching Credit Cards? Ramsey's final controversial opinion is to avoid credit cards altogether and rely instead on cash or debit. While this is a great strategy for habitual overspenders or those burdened by credit card debt. However, for disciplined users, credit cards offer valuable perks, such as travel rewards and cash back, often up to 2% or more. These rewards, when paired with responsible habits (paying off balances monthly), can add up to significant savings without the risk of debt. Dave Ramsey has helped millions move toward better financial habits, but some of his advice may not serve everyone equally well. There's no one-size-fits-all approach to money. Evaluating your financial landscape and consulting with a fiduciary professional are key steps toward making smart choices that truly align with your goals and circumstances.

They critique the constant, fear-driven speculation around economic downturns and emphasize maintaining a disciplined, long-term approach. Highlighting actual investor behavior from Dalbar studies, they explain why market timing almost always results in poorer returns.

But the parents? Meh.  When fascism rises, and some young people are drawn into its orbit, because everyone from Jordan Peterson to Andrew Tate has figured out how to exploit resentment at the failures of capitalism, we have an opportunity to give our kids a lot more than moralistic calls for a return to normalcy, compliance, warnings about screen time, striving to be better students, doing more sports, and not making too much of a ruckus (as Marco Rubio calls it).  The kind of parenting that limits itself to restoring the status quo for younger people in an age of fascism is not engaged parenting.  It's not enough to be a good boy or girl. Antifascism takes more than that. In this Part One, Matthew previews our main feed discussion of Adolescence (coming this Thursday), parses a speech by Gareth Southgate, wonders why Jonathan Haidt knows nothing about gaming, and remembers Sophie Scholl.  Show Notes Op-ed: Try again, President Kumar: Renewing calls for Tufts to adopt March 4 TCU Senate resolutions  Death toll since Israel's aggression on Gaza on October 7 rises to 31,819 (March, 2024)  Austerity Has Always Been a Project to Empower Capital at the Expense of Workers  It's Not Them; It's Us: Thoughts on the Show Adolescence Adolescence is a really well made depiction of misogyny that fails to critique it | by Mallory Moore | Mar, 2025 Netflix's ‘Adolescence' Taps Into the Latest Moral Panic    Jonathan Haidt's Claims On Kids & Tech Crumble Under Scrutiny From Top Expert, Candice Odgers | Techdirt  UK government's own estimate says welfare cuts to push 250,000 into poverty | Reuters Labour's cuts to PIP will drag a quarter of a million people into absolute poverty, DWP figures show – Disability News Service 55: Games Against Humanity (w/ Thi Nguyen) — Conspirituality 207: Gaming Realities (w/Thi Nguyen) — Conspirituality   Reminder to the media: Research video games before reporting on them  Out of the Ruins:The Emergence of Radical Informal Learning Spaces Anarchist Education and the Modern School: A Francisco Ferrer Reader  The People's Republic of Neverland: The Child versus the State   Raising Free People: Unschooling as Liberation and Healing Work Teaching Resistance: Radicals, Revolutionaries, and Cultural Subversives in the Classroom TRUST KIDS!
