Ben Chester had no money. In fact, it was worse—he had $120,000 in debt. He was sleeping at work and renting out his own rented apartment just to survive in America's most expensive market—New York City.  Now, six years later, he has eight rental properties, is debt-free, and even owns Billy Joel's former residence (yes, you read that right). If you're living in an expensive market and think it's impossible to invest, Ben has the formula for you. He turned very little money into a one-bedroom apartment empire—buying whatever he could in New York City, knowing it would all be worth the sacrifice. He's split these small apartments into multiple rentals with up to four tenants, allowing him to make the numbers work even when everyone else says it's impossible. But that's not the best part. After unlocking a tax “loophole” when buying a lake house, Ben is now able to offset 100% of his W-2 income taxes, meaning he often gets a check back from the government every year, all thanks to his real estate. Thought it was impossible to invest in markets like New York City? Ben is about to make it a very attractive option. In This Episode We Cover Turning a one-bedroom apartment into four living spaces with multiple roommates  The astonishing price Ben is paying for these tiny rentals (and why they're worth it) The tax “loophole” that regular real estate investors can use to offset all of their income  Buying (and renovating) Billy Joel's house! Yes, Ben actually did that  How to finance your home renovation when you don't have the cash (0% interest)  And So Much More!

Send us a textSuccessful or Faithful?Senior Pastor Keith StewartNovember 16, 2025What if the very thing we chase most—success—isn't what God wants for us at all? In a world obsessed with winning, Pastor Keith exposes the myth of “spiritual success” and invites us into something far deeper: the sacred art of faithfulness. You'll discover that in God's eyes, true success isn't measured by trophies, titles, or applause—but by whether we look more like Jesus after the struggle than we did before. It's a call to stand with the poor, the overlooked, and the broken—and to keep walking faithfully, even when victory seems out of reach. Come hear a message that will upend how you define success and reignite your faith in the quiet strength of perseverance._____________Discussion Questions 1. After vs. Before: Where have you looked more like Jesus after a hard season? 2. Success Audit: Which “success metrics” (size, speed, spotlight, likes) subtly steer your decisions? What would a faithfulness metric look like? How would it be different? What things matter most in regards to faithfulness? 3. The Long Defeat: What does “fighting the long defeat” mean in your neighborhood, workplace, or city? Share one situation where you might choose faithfulness over visible wins. 4. It's Expensive to Be Poor: Where do you see the “poverty penalty” (housing, food deserts, transport, healthcare) in our area? Which one could your group meaningfully address? 5. Matthew 25 Checkup: Of Jesus' list—hungry, thirsty, stranger, naked, sick, prisoner—which one is God highlighting for you right now? What is one concrete act you'll take this week? 6. Charity vs. Advocacy: Giving “stuff” meets real needs, but where might God be asking you to defend a cause (Jer. 22:16)—to speak up, show up, or help change an unfair process? Proverbs 17:5 Mirror: In what subtle ways do we “mock the poor” (assumptions, jokes, social posts,indifference)? What repentance and new practice would honor the God who made them? 7. Him and Them: If your politics were discipled by the two great commandments, what would change about your tone, sources, and priorities this month? Optional Group Practices (pick one for the week) Proximity Step: Spend an hour at a local clinic, food co-op, or reentry ministry; ask, “What helps most that we never think to offer?” Advocacy Action: Write one respectful, specific note to a local leader supporting a policy or process that reduces a “poverty penalty.” Daily pray, “Lord, make me faithful—form Christ in me; align my life with the least of these.”

We live in a world that glorifies busyness. A world that rewards “doing it all” - even when “all” leaves us completely drained. Somewhere along the way, we started believing that exhaustion is a sign of worth, and that calm means we're not trying hard enough. But here's the truth: Peace is not laziness. Peace is power. And yet, many of us keep trading it away - little by little - for approval, validation, control, or belonging. We say yes when we mean no. We explain what doesn't need explaining. We take responsibility for emotions that were never ours to carry. And then we wonder why we feel disconnected from ourselves.Today, we're talking about a shift that can change everything: Learning to treat your peace like your most valuable currency - because if something costs you your peace, it's already too expensive.Follow me on instagram for more inspiring, motivational and uplifting content.

In June Peugeot released the latest edition of its 5008 SUV – the seven-seat hybrid , a stretched version of the popular 3008 hybrid – now featuring a 1.2-litre three-cylinder turbo petrol engine aided by 48V mild hybrid assistance from a 15.6kW electric motor and 0.9kWhour battery – self charging the electric mode can operated for short periods at low speeds and is seamless in operation – I like three cylinder engines, but given the 5008’s weight the performance is best described as adequate – a little underwhelming at times when called on to really perform. In the high grade 5008 Premium GT hybrid I tested a visually striking SUV, very well equipped with Nappa leather seats and with great comfort levels in the Peugeot tradition. Ride and handling fine, the latter, on the sporty side with nicely weighted steering. Economy wise, I managed 6.7L/100km with mainly city driving – on the downside it also needs 95 octane premium unleaded. At $67,990 plus on-road costs the Peugeot 5008 GT Premium SUV is not inexpensive and there are other more affordable seven seat SUVs but it deserves to be on your shopping list. It lacks a spare wheel, only a tyre repair kit but apart from that a highly equipped premium SUV.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Washington State just clinched the trophy for highest chain restaurant prices in the nation, while Seattle takes gold for most expensive takeout. Congratulations, progressives - you're finally number one at something! We dive into how 35 years of Democratic control has turned the Evergreen State into the wallet-bleeding capital of America, complete with $5.09 gas, sky-high Uber prices, and a brand new socialist mayor who can't even afford to live in her own city without mommy and daddy's help.From $724 million spent on homelessness (with a 61% increase to show for it) to businesses fleeing faster than tourists from downtown Seattle, we break down the beautiful disaster that is progressive policy in action. Meanwhile, red states like Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas are laughing all the way to their affordable dinner tables.Is anyone shocked that the states taxing businesses into oblivion have the highest costs? What did Seattle voters think would happen when they elected a 43-year-old socialist living off her parents? Will anything get cheaper under progressive leadership, or should w

People in the U.S. are feeling the financial squeeze, in part because of rising inflation, higher consumer prices and slowing job growth. The Indicator from Planet Money is tackling a special series on the rising cost of living. Today, two stories from that series. First, what's making ticket prices go up? We look at the economics behind the ticket market and how “reseller bots” are wreaking all sorts of havoc. The industry is not a fan, and yet they do serve an economic function. And… why pet care costs have surged. It comes down to unique skills, people's love for their pets and something called the “Baumol effect.” Related episodes:The Vet Clinic Chow Down What Do Private Equity Firms Actually Do? Kid Rock vs. The Scalpers Ticket scalpers: The real ticket masters Subscribe to Planet Money+ Listen free: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, the NPR app or anywhere you get podcasts.Facebook / Instagram / TikTok / Our weekly Newsletter. This episode is hosted by Darian Woods, Adrian Ma, and Wailin Wong.

PREVIEW: Economic Indicator: Continued Strength in RV Manufacturing Guest: Jim McTague Jim McTague, a former Barron's editor, reports on a conversation with a driver whose job is delivering expensive RVs from Elkhart, Indiana, across the United States. McTague was curious what this activity meant for the broader economy, as he would have expected manufacturing to slow seasonally. He also anticipated a slowdown given consumer reluctance to overspend or make significant capital purchases. However, this industry insider told McTague that he sees no diminution in RV manufacturing. The continued strength in production suggests underlying economic resilience despite expectations of consumer pullback.
