Wealth is defined as the people Greg works with as having enough money to do what they want and need to do. They live in a “post-budget world.” The first-generationwealthy are building their wealth in non-sexy ways, like consistent investing over time. This might be in their own companies or retirement accounts, for example. Most millionaires don't inherit money. They build wealth themselves slowly and consistently over time. All this talk about first-generation wealth begs the question about the second generation. How do you manufacture the hunger?The reasons for financial failure are 1) lack of purpose, 2) lack of a plan, and 3) lack of discipline. That's why the 3 financial superpowers are 1) Power of Purpose, 2) Power of Plan, and 3) Power of Execution. Having a purpose and a plan helps you avoid decision fatigue. You're also easily able to reset if you “mess up.” Having a clear purpose is the most important thing. You don't even need to have a high income! If you haven't started, though, it's important that you getstarted ASAP with an emergency fund (“financial shock absorber”). Having a plan keeps you from comparing yourself to others, which is key. You compare yourself to only yourself. Anybody can do this and become first-generation wealthy.If you liked this episode, you'll also like episode 199: the 3 pillars of prosperity.About Greg:The founder of Luken Wealth Management, Greg Luken.

Paid for by Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin. Most of us plan and look forward to retirement, but that may not be the case for farmers. Their identity is tied with the farm, the livestock, the daily tasks they perform and it can be tough to decouple from all that. Stephanie Hoff takes a closer look at how to deal with those challenges, and what options might work with University of Missouri Extension Farm Transition Specialist Wesley Tucker. Tucker was a guest at the Professional Dairy Producers annual business meeting in Madison. He says he helps explain ways individuals can maintain their identity as a farmer after "retirement" by transitioning to a role as an advisor/coach/mentor. They may even have more value in this position than when they were calling the shots. It's rare for a farmer to be able to let go of the farm completely. From a mental health standpoint, they need to have a sense of purpose with the farm.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode, host Daniel Raimi talks with Resources for the Future Fellow Brian C. Prest about the effects of US liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports. As the world's leading exporter of LNG, the United States has been ramping up capacity to produce and transport LNG to meet global demand. Prest describes how this increasing trend affects domestic oil and gas prices and the extent to which the federal government influences the production of oil and gas. He also discusses the global and domestic effects of increasing LNG production and exports on emissions, including which kinds of energy US LNG exports are substituting or displacing in other countries, variation in methane emissions across different sites of gas production, and the social cost of these methane emissions.

Praise from a Future Generation: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy and the First Generation Critics The Last Investigation: Fonzi, Gaeton, Russell, Dick, Fonzi, Marie: - Amazon.ca Len & Jim discuss Donald Trump's declaration to release the JFK, MLK & RFK files. Does Trump realize the magnitude of such a release & the resistance he will face? Rep. David Schweikert has introduced the Justice For Kennedy Act 2025 to have all JFK files released. The National Archives was obligated to release all archived JFK files in 2017. Joe Rogan & Judge Napolitana have kept the pressure on Trump to release the files. Before the Warren Commission was published, Vincent Salandria was a skeptic to the cover stories. Vincent Salandria travelled to Dallas with brother-in-law Harold Feldman & his wife Irma. The trio met with Marguerite Oswald, noting that Marguerite felt she was under surveillance. Harold Feldman was very impressed with Marguerite Oswald & her quest to prove Lee's innocence. Vincent's brother Harold stopped writing about the assassination around 1967-1968. Vincent, Harold, Irma & Marguerite visited Helen Markham's apartment a couple of times. Helen Markham was warned by the Dallas Police Department not to talk to Salandria & Feldman. After 1968, Vince decided it was pointless to fight the WC lies & government pushed forensics. Vincent & Harold's early articles helped forge the path for future researchers. People didn't like Vince because of his deep loyalty to Garrison. How could bullet C399 have been in such mint condition if one is to believe the single bullet theory? Epstein's book Inquest was the 1st critical book on the Warren Commission that had an impact. Shortly after Inquest is published, Epstein 'switches teams' which Salandria calls Epstein out for. Salandria attended a conference held by Arlen Spector where he confronted Spector about his bs theory. Gaeton Fonzi & Vincent Salandria became friends, which led to a taped interview with Arlen Spector. Fonzi was stunned at Spector's confused, halted answers to Gaeton's questions. HSCA Deputy Chief Counsel Robert Tanenbaum is publishing a book in the next few months! Jim & Len answer letters from Black Op Radio listeners. Was the 'Chicago Plot' a dry run for the assassination conspirators? What's going to happen in Canada with Justin Trudeau stepping down?

Janna Greir and her partner Ryan always loved the idea of ranching, living in the country, and operating a small farm, but becoming a first-generation farmer is nearly impossible these days. That is until she discovered the combination of sheep and solar. The family had a dozen sheep until she landed a contract with Capital Power to manage the vegetation on their Strathmore Solar Farm. Janna has become something of an expert in vegetation management since then and the land is now much more productive and her flock has grown to more than 1,000 sheep on this one site alone. Janna has become a consultant, and is already further expanding her operation pointing to an amazing bright future for what is called agrivoltaics, the combining of solar and farming. Rather than gobble up farmland, she is improving productivity and dramatically improving the economics of being a farmer, first generation or otherwise. Part 1 in a 2 part series.

Happy New Year. During the holidays, we can become more stressed, anxious, and sometimes depressed. Perhaps there's too much work and you're struggling to find balance. Perhaps a loved one passed away and you are mourning their loss. Perhaps you're already feeling stretched so thin and traveling to see family is putting you on edge. So instead of the usual interview with guests, this episode is dedicated to reconnecting with our bodies and our breath. The meditation itself is less than 6 minutes (0.1 billable hours). If you want to skip straight to the meditation, it starts at 3:16. If you can't do the full meditation, then do 5 deep breaths (in through the nose, and out through the mouth) first thing in the morning, right before bed, and anytime you're feeling anxious.
