Jesse answers listener questions on financial planning, investment management, and retirement. He discusses the challenges of rising homeowner's insurance costs in high-risk areas, the differences between Treasuries, CDs, and high-yield savings accounts, and the inefficiencies of using life insurance for tax-free retirement. He advises Casey, a future retiree, on tax-efficient withdrawal strategies and investment choices, and guides Chris, a federal worker, on pension decisions, TSP management, and career changes. Jesse also addresses Rachel's concerns about bond funds versus individual bonds, explaining their similarities and recommending a goals-based portfolio approach with cash reserves and an appropriate bond allocation for retirement security. Throughout the episode, he emphasizes strategic financial planning and adaptability in decision-making. Key Takeaways:• Homeowner's insurance costs are rising in high-risk states like California and Florida due to natural disasters. • We explore the ethical dilemma over whether wealthy homeowners should receive government aid after disasters. • Treasuries, CDs, and high-yield savings accounts differ in liquidity, risk, and how financial institutions set rates. • Permanent life insurance strategies like whole life and indexed universal life are marketed as tax-free retirement solutions but are often inefficient. • When planning your retirement, future required minimum distributions (RMDs) should be considered, as pre-tax accounts will be taxed upon withdrawal. • Career risk should be assessed by weighing long-term benefits against short-term uncertainties, emphasizing planning and adaptability.

Key Takeaways: Why Prices Go Up and Down When lots of people want something but there isn't much of it, prices go up (like when concert tickets sell out). When there's too much of something and not enough buyers, prices go down (like when stores have sales to clear out old inventory). How the Federal Reserve Affects the Economy The Federal Reserve (or "the Fed") controls how much money is in the economy. It changes interest rates to make borrowing easier (low rates) or harder (high rates), which influences spending and investing. When the Government Messes with the Market Sometimes, the government steps in to fix economic problems, but this can cause other issues. If they print too much money or keep interest rates too low for too long, it can create "bubbles"—situations where prices rise too fast before crashing down. Investing Smart in a Messy Market Because markets don't always act naturally, smart investors learn to recognize these distortions. They make flexible investment plans that take advantage of these changes instead of blindly following the crowd. Thinking Long-Term Instead of Following the Herd Many people invest just because everyone else is doing it, but that can be dangerous. Understanding how the economy works helps investors make better long-term choices rather than getting caught in financial bubbles.

Send us a textDive into the intricacies of Utah's 2025 legislative session with Washington City's Legislative Affairs Director Jordan Hess as he breaks down the bills that will reshape Southern Utah's communities. With over 582 bills passed during this session, Jordan helps navigate the complex political landscape while offering unique insights from his perspective working directly with lawmakers and municipalities.Jordan Hess unpacks controversial legislation like the flag display restrictions in public buildings, enhanced enforcement capabilities against illegal short-term rentals, and new voter integrity measures requiring additional verification for mail-in ballots.The discussion takes a particularly fascinating turn when examining the tension between state authority and local control. One failed bill would have created a "Beehive Development Agency" with power to expedite major economic projects with minimal local input—highlighting the ongoing struggle between expedient development and thoughtful local planning. Housing affordability emerges as a critical theme throughout the episode, with Jordan explaining how new legislation prohibiting municipalities from requiring garages for affordable single-family homes could help create true "starter homes" again. The conversation explores whether government intervention can effectively address housing costs or if market forces will ultimately drive solutions.Guest Jordan Hess, Legislative Affairs Director at Washington City, LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordan-hess-44b23527/Looking for a Real Estate expert?

Who should pay?Here to help decode that we spoke with Dave Jones - former Insurance Commissioner for California from 2011 through 2018. He's now the director of the Climate Risk Initiative at University of California, Berkeley. He recently wrote an oped in the New York Times arguing that the oil companies should have to pay for the damages of the LA wildfires, to arrest the insurance crisis.Steve Coulter of the Green Alliance here in the UK expands on, slight tension, conundrum, paradox.

Takeaways Customer service experiences can be frustrating and time-consuming. Government intervention may be necessary to improve customer service standards. Companies often fail to address their own customer service issues. The experience of customers with disabilities is often overlooked. Regulations in Europe provide clearer guidelines for customer service. Technology alone will not solve customer service problems. Organizations need to actively seek feedback to improve service. Customer service representatives often have limited solutions to offer. Internal reforms are essential for enhancing customer experience. The government may step in if companies do not take action.

Verulam Water Crisis Committee Appeals for Government Intervention by Radio Islam

On this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop is joined by Katelynne Schuler, a thinker and innovator in the realms of psychology, religion, and philosophy. The conversation spans a wide range of compelling topics, including the layered nuances of Korean social hierarchy, the evolution of political language, and the shifting ideologies within Western conservatism. They explore the rebranding of the KKK, the deeper implications of free speech in a world dominated by digital platforms, and the unseen influence of corporations on government censorship. Katelynne also shares her insights on the psychology of "falls from grace" and how isolation during the pandemic may have catalyzed narcissistic tendencies in some people. The episode touches on larger philosophical questions about civilization, power, and media's role in shaping collective belief. To learn more about Katelynne Schuler, you can find her on Facebook under her name, Katelynne Schuler.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast00:32 Exploring Korean Culture and Social Nuances02:52 Language and Political Ideologies04:23 Project 2025 and Political Shifts06:21 The KKK's Rebranding and Conservatism10:25 Theocracy and Intersectionalism11:14 Free Speech and Internet History30:05 The Impact of COVID-19 and Vaccines34:15 Clearing Out and Cognitive Dissonance35:07 Pandemic Social Dynamics36:06 Narcissism and Social Isolation38:22 Conspiracy Theories and Social Impact41:34 Lockdowns and Quarantine43:25 Media Manipulation and Public Perception44:52 Nanotechnology and Conspiracy Theories49:42 Bill Gates and Genetic Engineering52:42 Trump, Publicity, and Media Influence58:41 Finance, Asset Valuation, and Media Future01:03:30 Pandemic Warnings and Conspiracies01:07:34 Conclusion and Contact InformationKey Insights1. The Power of Language in Social and Political SystemsKatelynne Schuler highlights the profound role that language plays in shaping social dynamics, drawing on Korean culture's use of honorifics as a prime example. In Korean, different forms of language are used depending on social rank, respect, and familiarity, essentially creating three distinct "languages" within one. This insight is paralleled with Western political discourse, where the left and right often use the same words but with entirely different meanings. The observation points to a broader idea that shared language does not guarantee shared understanding—a crucial realization in an era of increasing political division.2. Free Speech, Corporate Power, and Government CensorshipA central thread in the episode is the evolution of free speech in the age of digital platforms. Schuler and Alsop explore how platforms like Twitter and Facebook have become arenas where free speech is both enabled and curtailed. While platforms have the right to control content as private entities, the duo highlights the more concerning trend of governments using corporations as proxies to suppress dissent. This dynamic blurs the line between free enterprise and state censorship, raising questions about how much "free speech" really exists in online spaces.3. The Psychological Fallout of Isolation and "Fall from Grace"Katelynne offers a unique psychological perspective on how the pandemic-induced isolation created a rise in narcissistic tendencies. As people lost their social connections, especially those ostracized for holding unpopular views on COVID, their need for self-validation intensified. This "fall from grace" experience can push people toward more rigid thinking, strengthening their attachment to specific beliefs or ideologies. Schuler notes that this isn't a reflection of right or wrong beliefs but a psychological response to social exclusion. It's a profound insight into how isolation and rejection affect the human psyche.4. The Rebranding of Extremist IdeologiesOne of the more startling revelations is the claim that groups like the KKK have rebranded themselves with a new focus on Christian nationalism, moving away from racial exclusion and embracing ideological alignment with "Christian values." Schuler notes that this shift aligns with a broader push within segments of American conservatism to integrate Christian morality into governance. This evolution is compared to the broader concept of theocratic governance, where laws are designed to reflect specific religious values—a concept that is controversial, even within conservative circles.5. Global Power Shifts and Lessons from HistoryThe episode provides a historical deep dive into events like the Seven Years' War, which Winston Churchill referred to as the first true "world war." Schuler suggests that while Germany was ostensibly defeated in this war, its real victory lay in how it exported its people and culture globally, influencing future power structures. This insight parallels modern debates about nationalism and globalism, with the hosts exploring how smaller, insulated communities might have better weathered the COVID crisis by closing off from global networks—much like Germany's "export" strategy.6. Technology, Nanotechnology, and the Role of Bill GatesAlsop and Schuler address the controversial role of Bill Gates, focusing on his investments in biotech and nanotechnology. They discuss Gates' involvement in genetically engineered mosquitoes released in South America and the ethical questions it raises. There's also a hint of speculative intrigue around nanobots, with references to origami-style nanostructures found in human blood. While these claims are framed as emerging curiosities rather than confirmed realities, they touch on larger concerns about who controls emerging technologies and to what end.7. The Fragmentation of Media and the Future of InformationFinally, the episode explores the fragmentation of media and its impact on public consciousness. Unlike previous decades when a few major outlets shaped collective opinion, today's media landscape is fractured, with individuals curating their own reality through niche sources. While this decentralization of media offers more choice, it also leads to greater division, as people consume entirely different versions of reality. Schuler suggests that this lack of a shared narrative might weaken societal cohesion, as people lose common ground on basic truths. This shift toward decentralized media aligns with broader conversations about social media algorithms and "echo chambers," where everyone has their own version of reality.

Episode 225. Where Next for the Property Market? In this episode I address a pressing question around the future of the property market, particularly in light of recent price increases that have surpassed the 2007 peak. I cover the fundamental economic principles of supply and demand, emphasising the distinction between necessity-driven demand and speculation. Reflecting on the lessons learned from the 2008 market collapse, highlighting how speculation led to a significant downturn. My arguemernt is that the current market is primarily driven by necessity, as the need for housing remains critical amidst rising prices and insufficient supply. The discussion also touches on the impact of interest rates and government interventions on the housing market, concluding with predictions about future trends and potential changes in the market landscape. I hope you enjoy. *** Curious about my Accelerator?
There's claims the Government needs to show its justification for intervening in Wellington City Council. It's appointing a Crown observer - claiming it is financial mis-management for the Council to plan to fund water infrastructure from rates revenue - rather than debt, using a Government tool. Lower Hutt Mayor Campbell Barry notes the Government only made its funding tool available in August, not June when the council decided its Long Term Plan. Barry says this doesn't add up. "What I think should hopefully clear up the matters is for the minister to release the advice that he received from officials - so we can all see and understand it in its full context."

Schwartz, a cybersecurity expert with three decades of experience, discusses his recently published blog post titled "The Path to Banning Ransomware Payments", and unpacks the ways not just businesses, but also governments can respond to this growing threat.Martin and Schwartz delve into significant issues, including the moral, national security, and economic imperatives for banning these payments. The duo further discuss four potential strategies to make not paying ransoms the rational thing to do: requiring victims to report ransom payments, to submit to oversight by a government regulator, to pay fines or face potential criminal charges for refusing to comply.Addressing the practicalities of such a ban, Schwartz believes it's likely to happen within the next 3 to 5 years but notes the need for passing laws to successfully enforce it. He also examines the critical role of insurance in this scenario and emphasizes the importance of risk mitigation strategies and robust cybersecurity measures.The episode also explores potential exceptions to the ban like potential life-or-death situations or major economic harm, and the need for government intervention during ransom situations. Lastly, they discuss how targeting ransomware can help internal corporate security teams highlight the threats to their leadership and drive investment in robust cybersecurity.Top Questions Addressed:How can we effectively move towards the banning of ransomware payments?How does insurance play a role in this scenario and what should we prepare for in that regard?What are potential exceptions to the ban and how could a government intervene during ransomware situations?___________________________Watch this and other videos on ITSPmagazine's YouTube ChannelRedefining CyberSecurity Podcast with Sean Martin, CISSP playlist:
