What do Warren Buffett and Friedrich Nietzsche have in common? Why does Baruch Spinoza's understanding of irrational emotions help explain financial markets? How did Voltaire's success in a bond lottery arbitrage shape his writing? Can David Hume teach an investor when to buck the consensus and when to heed it?Exploring these questions and many others, Ethan A. Everett reveals the surprising lessons we can learn about investing from major philosophers. Demystifying ideas and texts that can often seem intimidating or irrelevant, he shows how philosophical concepts can be fruitfully applied to financial markets. Everett shares how philosophers' insights have informed his development as an investor, and he considers how great investors have embodied philosophical wisdom in their own endeavors.Ranging from the birth of modern securities markets in seventeenth-century Amsterdam to recent trends like meme stocks, this book shows why a philosophical perspective can prove invaluable to challenging common assumptions in finance. Thinkers like Spinoza or Baudrillard are sometimes envisioned as disembodied minds constructing opaque, self-enclosed theoretical systems, but Everett elegantly concretizes their teachings, brings them to bear on our lived experience of the world, and shows how they can help us better appreciate the joys and vicissitudes of the market.

In this episode of Real Money, Real Experts, we sit down with Dr. Jessica Limbrick, an Accredited Financial Counselor®, researcher, and Assistant Professor at Nevada State University — and yes, she's also the woman who throws full-blown birthday parties for 59½.Jessica shares how her early fascination with personal finance, her own lived experiences, and a pivotal poverty simulation shaped her teaching philosophy. She talks about using metaphors, milestones, and empathy to bring financial concepts to life for her students — many of whom are working full-time or caring for families while attending college.We explore her research on college students' shifting views on poverty, the intersection of wealth and perceived intelligence, and how educators and counselors alike can better serve clients across income levels.

Dave and Alicia Store, co-founders of DSNM, join the Evolve to Succeed podcast to trace their 25-year journey from a one-man, paper-based chart-correction service to an award-winning super-yacht-navigation technology company with 27 employees and 620 vessels under subscription. Dave candidly recounts the scrappy early years - dot-matrix printers, Pritt Stick, and fax machines - while Alicia explains how joining the firm (initially to cover maternity leave) professionalised its finances, people processes and long-term vision. The couple unpack the pivotal moments that reshaped the business: realising captains would pay for a fully managed service; raising prices to signal quality; surviving the 2008 crash, COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine shock; and, most dramatically, self-funding and launching their proprietary software, Compass. Their complementary personalities - Dave the risk-taking visionary, Alicia the detail-driven operator - emerge as the engine behind DSNM's culture of obsessive customer service and constant product iteration. They also share the realities of running a high-pressure, family-run company in a glamorous, yet unforgiving industry. Topics range from work-life integration with their young son Louis, to tight recruitment standards, to the pride (and responsibility) of winning two Queen's Awards and employing a close-knit team. This episode of the Evolve to Succeed Podcast covers… Find a pain-killer, not a vitamin. Early success came from doing the tedious chart-correction work crews hated. Price can signal value. Raising rates—rather than undercutting incumbents—attracted more super-yacht clients. Service DNA first, tech layer next. DSNM's core white-glove support never changed; software (Compass) scaled it. Complementary co-founders matter. Visionary risk (Dave) + operational diligence (Alicia) created balanced growth. Crisis = clarity. COVID and the Ukraine conflict forced the team to reassess purpose, costs and future bets. Culture of “no passengers.” Every hire must be a self-starting problem-solver; weak links show instantly in a small team. Bootstrapping builds resilience. Funding software internally preserved speed and ownership—crucial in a niche market. Work-life “blend” beats balance. Shared purpose, clear role boundaries, and intentional family time keep burnout at bay.

Welcome to this REWIND episode of 20/20 Money! Given that my grandpa just recently celebrated his 96th birthday, I wanted to bring back this episode and share it again for new and long-time listeners alike. It's also a subtle reminder about the importance of understanding longevity risk in one's financial plan. I can only imagine the unfortunate situation my grandpa would be in had he and my grandma not had a sound investment strategy that has allowed them to build up a portfolio that has lasted the entirety of his retirement. On this episode, I wanted to share a bit of a personal story about 3 lessons that I learned from my grandparents that have in large part shaped the money story and lessons that have guided my financial journey and how I view and use money money in my life. I hope this conversations gives you a benchmark and different viewpoint to compare your own money values and purpose. If you feel like you don't have a grasp on your own money story and purpose, my hope is that it inspires you to start thinking intentionally about how you make spending and investing decisions with your dollars.

Ever wonder how a food business thrives for four decades without compromising on quality? Sarah sits down with culinary visionary Ariane Daguin, who transformed America's specialty meat landscape with just $15,000 and an unwavering commitment to sustainability. Ariane shares the unvarnished truth about building D'Artagnan from the ground up. She walks us through those challenging first ten years managing tight cash flow, explains why turning down certain growth opportunities actually strengthened her business foundation, and describes the strategic "shotgun clause" she used when buying out her partner who wanted to prioritize rapid growth over maintaining quality standards. For food entrepreneurs navigating today's rising costs and economic uncertainty, Ariane offers practical wisdom: "Don't panic. Whatever goes down goes back up." She explains why economic downturns can become valuable moments to reassess, reinvent, and differentiate your business from competitors. Now mentoring the next generation through her Germinators program while building a new sustainable farm venture with her daughter, Ariane continues sharing insights that food founders won't find in typical business resources. This episode delivers straightforward financial guidance from someone who's weathered four decades of economic cycles while staying true to her founding principles.

This week on the Journey to Launch Podcast, I am sharing my journey of running my first half marathon at the Reggae Marathon in Negril, Jamaica, drawing the parallels between the lessons learned from running and those from my financial freedom journey. This race aligned with the one-year anniversary of my book “Your Journey to Financial Freedom” and had me reflect on the power of setting ambitious goals, embracing challenges, and finding joy in the journey. I also share the pleasure I had to be able to stay at two boutique, family-owned resorts—Rondel Village and Travelers Beach Resort, and being able to reunite with former podcast guests, Tiffany Grant and Tanya Taylor. Through the lessons drawn from the race, I talk about the importance of community, preparation, and maintaining an optimistic mindset, while celebrating serendipitous moments that reflect life's magic. In this episode I share: The race details, waking up at 3:45 AM for the shuttle to the starting line, starting the race at 5:15 AM, shared moments with other runners & the thrill of crossing the finish line with a sense of accomplishment. How training for the race paralleled the financial independence journey since both require preparation, perseverance, incremental progress & community support Why you should avoid assumptions about others and comparing yourself to others, instead focus on your progress Serendipitous moments like reuniting with family and connecting with podcast listeners can remind us of life's wonder and interconnectedness + more.
