Model Portfolios: Did you know assets in model portfolios surged to a record $8 trillion this year? Find out the pros and cons of these pre-packaged investment options and why you need to ask your financial advisor the right questions to truly know what you own. Are these portfolios helping you grow your money—or just serving the institutions? 529 College Savings Plans: There's groundbreaking news on the horizon! Proposed expansions could allow 529 funds to cover more educational expenses, from tutoring fees to curriculum materials and even SAT tests. Learn how these changes may offer greater flexibility and reassurance for parents and grandparents saving for their loved ones' education.
Even in challenging markets, it's hard to find great real estate deals because sellers are always slow to capitulate on price. One asset class, however, that promises steady cash flowing deals is sub-institutional industrial. These properties don't have as large a buyer pool as multifamily or larger properties across other asset classes in general. Jonathan Hayek, Founder of Endurance Properties, has recently acquired cash flowing NNN industrial properties where the tenant is responsible for everything except for the roof and structure. On his most recent deal near Des Moines, it's an Absolute NNN lease where he doesn't even pay for the roof any other expenses.

How do the Mariners balance a need to be aggressive at the trade deadline with the lack of top tier talent expected to be available? Then, Joon Lee joins us to talk about his NYT piece on how private equity and streaming services are making it more expensive and less communal to be a sports fan.
Life can get very expensive—whether it's housing costs, tuition, weddings, bar mitzvahs, or even just the basic day-to-day expenses like food and clothing. When someone doesn't have the money available to cover these costs, it can become a source of great stress. Fortunately for us, Hashem is fully aware of every expense we face, and He is the One in charge of covering them. If He deems it best for us to afford these costs through our own income, He will send the money in the way He sees fit. And if He decides that we must rely on others for help, we must believe that this too is what's best for us. The key is to recognize that whatever happens, it's Hashem orchestrating it for our benefit. Sometimes, people must live in less-than-ideal conditions for a while. But when Hashem determines it's time for a change, He opens new doors. He can give someone a bigger home or a better location—without them even needing to figure out how to make it happen. A rabbi shared a personal story. Every summer, he works away from home at two jobs—leading a minyan and running a day camp. Each year, beginning in January, he starts searching for a rental near his summer responsibilities. In previous years, he and his family lived in small, distant basement apartments—sometimes more than a 30-minute drive away. One year, he split the cost of a house rental with his brother in the ideal location. That summer, every morning, an elderly woman walked past their rental home as she exercised. The rabbi's daughter, waiting for her camp bus, would always greet the woman with a polite "hello." Later that summer, the woman told the rabbi she was planning to move to Florida and would be selling her house right up the block. She said she wasn't interested in maximizing profit—she just wanted a nice family to live in it. And because of the way his daughter greeted her every day, she wanted to offer it to them first. She promised to reach out again when she was ready to sell. A few months later, she called the rabbi and told him she had freshly painted the home, renovated two bathrooms, and even installed a brand-new roof. She was ready for them to come see it. The rabbi and his wife came to visit. After showing them around, the woman asked what they could afford. They offered less than half the market value—and she gladly accepted. In the end, they purchased the home with a down payment of just $57,000. The woman was genuinely happy to help them. It was clear this was all from Hashem. When He decided it was time for the rabbi and his growing family to have their own home, He placed it right in their hands. Another man told me that he had once been very successful financially, but fell on hard times last year. This year, with many large expenses looming, he had no idea how he was going to pay for them. His business was not generating the necessary income, and the pressure was building. Then, one day, a check arrived in the mail—completely out of the blue. It was from the government, with an explanation that it was a refund for tax overpayments made over the past ten years. The amount? $250,000—the exact sum he needed to cover his upcoming expenses. And after all his bills were paid, and life returned to normal, his business was still underperforming. Then he received yet another unexpected check—this time for over $9,000—from an old investment he had long forgotten about. Hashem has infinite ways to provide. As it says in the Torah: " ואכלת ושבעת וברכת את ה' אלוקיך על הארץ הטובה אשר נתן לך " Hashem provides for us fully—so we may eat, be satisfied, and bless Him for it. We must internalize this truth: Hashem knows every single one of our expenses, and He will help us pay for them in the way that is best for us. Whether through work, through people, or through seemingly miraculous events, Hashem is always the One covering the cost.

Just because there's money in the bank doesn't mean your business is truly profitable. In this episode, Danielle lays out the most common (and sneaky) financial mistakes she sees entrepreneurs and small business owners making without even realizing they're doing it. From undercharging to over-relying on your gut, Danielle is not here to shame you—she's here to show you how to avoid them so you have the tools you need to build your business with confidence, clarity, and a financial plan that supports your vision. Key Takeaways: Your Bank Balance is Not the Full Picture: Why real profitability lives beyond what's in your checking account. Profit is not the same as cash flow, and both matter in different ways. You Don't Have to Do It All Yourself: You're not a bookkeeper—and you don't need to be! Delegating your money tasks is one of the most empowering moves you can make. Outsourcing your books (or any task that's not your expertise) isn't giving up control, it's giving yourself the ability to make smarter business decisions. Knowing Your Numbers Puts You In Control: Reviewing your financial statements monthly isn't just “nice”, it's necessary. It keeps you from guessing and it's how you grow with intention. Pricing for Profit, Not Panic: Undercharging leads to burnout. You deserve to get paid what your work is worth—and then some. Create a Plan for the Slow Seasons: Feast-or-famine is not a strategy. Use data to build stability and breathe easier year-round. Think In Terms of the Long-Game: Even if you love your work now, it's never too early to plan for the future. Building a business that runs without you means real freedom.

Jack Albin “breathed a sigh of relief” after the recent 30-year bond auction, but says investors are still selling them off. In the short term, he thinks bond holders are worrying about Fed stewardship, and in the long-term, fiscal imbalance. On stocks, right now he would “avoid the Russell 2000,” expecting financing to get more expensive.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Mother Miriam Live 5/14/25 In Today's Show: The ideal Catholic family Should I pay legal expenses for a family member whom I know is guilty? Can you explain plenary indulgences? How do we know for sure that someone will be going to Heaven? If I am married now, how can I prepare to become a nun after my husband passes? Is it OK to receive the Eucharist from a church who offers only a "distorted" version of the Mass? Should I inquire into the reason(s) why one of my son's teachers was removed from our Jesuit High School? How do I address a teacher at my daughter's all-girl Catholic school who was giving an incorrect sign of the cross?
Join Jim and Greg for Tuesday's 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into the New York Times' latest attempt to undermine President Trump and congressional Republicans, Trump's push to reopen Alcatraz as a federal prison, and Michelle Obama's newest, tiresome complaints about life in the White House.First, they tear into the New York Times for framing the Congressional Review Act (CRA) as an “obscure” tool possibly being misused by Republicans to undo Biden-era regulations. The article warns readers that opponents can't filibuster CRA rollbacks—something the left suddenly finds troubling now that Republicans control Congress. Jim dismantles the Times' arguments, defends Trump's use of the CRA, and calls out the media's hypocritical coverage of these tactics.Next, they react to President Trump's call to reopen Alcatraz as a prison for the nation's most dangerous criminals. He also hints at sending criminal illegals there, blaming judges "that are afraid to do their job and allow us to remove criminals." Jim and Greg aren't sure that specifically rebuilding Alcatraz is the answer, but they do like the like of sending our worst criminals to places that will be remote and will become synonymous with a thoroughly miserable experience for the inmates. And some of their ideas for how to do this are out of this world.Finally, they roll their eyes at Michelle Obama's latest White House grievances—this time about paying for their own private meals and also travel for their children when the president wasn't with them. Jim and Greg are tired of how the Obamas continue to portray themselves as victims while enjoying elite status—but are enjoy seeing how their political influence continues to fade within the Democratic Party.Please visit our great sponsors:This podcast is sponsored by BetterHelp.
