Bonita Bell-Anderson (Ask Good Questions Podcast) and Paul Adams (More Than Commas) unpack why Americans under-save, how culture rewards consumption, and why retirement is a narrative, more than math. Paul shares reset moves: save ~20% of gross income, cultivate contentment, set a written strategy, and “don't break strategy.” They explore evidence-based investing with Dimensional Fund Advisors, guarding against lifestyle inflation, and reframing “retirement” as financial independence. Practical language hacks (“that would break strategy”) and small, repeatable habits help listeners compound toward freedom, without chasing status. A candid, encouraging playbook for purposeful money and life. -- 00:00 – Intro & disclaimers 01:20 – Meet Paul Adams 04:50 – Family, mobility, and designing work 07:30 – Eye-opening retirement stats 10:50 – Why we don't save: feedback loops 19:40 – “Retirement is a narrative problem” 31:10 – “Don't break strategy” language shift 37:45 – Evidence-based investing & DFA -- This Material is Intended for General Public Use.

Over 1,300 athletes from 12 countries gathered at Kezar Stadium in San Francisco for the first-ever Gay Games, on 28th August, 1982.  Intended as the “Gay Olympics,” the event had to change its name at the last minute after the US Olympic Committee sued. But the opening ceremony was electric, with none other than Tina Turner performing at a pivotal moment in her career - a bold and unprecedented move for a superstar at a gay event in the early ‘80s. The brainchild of Olympic decathlete Tom Waddell, the Games were intended to show that you could be openly gay and still achieve greatness - even in a city and community plagued by HIV. Waddell prioritized inclusion over nationalism, having athletes march by city instead of country, and selected a Black gay man and cancer survivor, Richard Hunter, to light the cauldron - symbolizing unity and resilience. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly marvel at the diversity of the opening parade; reveal the child that was conceived as a direct result of the event; and consider why the Games have never been televised…  Further Reading: • ‘Tom Waddell, the amazing man behind Gay Games' (ESPN, 2014): https://www.espn.com/story/_/id/11305954/tom-waddell-amazing-man-gay-games • ‘The Gay Games are still relevant.

A great irony surrounds this biblical doctrine of God's absolute predestination of all things. Intended by the Apostle Paul to be one of the most comforting and assuring doctrines to the redeemed followers of Christ, predestination is widely scorned by those to whose souls it should soothe. There is no greater assurance of our salvation than to know its eternal security does not rest on the feebleness of our faith.

In this episode, Paul explores the real cost and true value of retiring in paradise. We begin by examining a widely cited article claiming retirees need $2.2 million to live comfortably in Hawaii, and uncover how media “information laundering” can make financial advice seem more official than it is. Then, Paul sits down with Aaron Goddard, CEO of Allstate Health Benefits, who moved his family to Hawaii over a decade ago. Aaron shares candid insights about cost of living, quality of life, community, and why he believes Hawaii offers unmatched rewards for retirees.   --   This Material is Intended for General Public Use.

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: The fact that Andrew Cuomo, whose own residency in New York City is extremely tenuous and recent, even by the most charitable accounts, is trying to recover his standing by pounding away on the Hamptons fundraiser circuit, could be an embarrassing front page story in its own right. It just emphasizes that the anti-Mamdani movement, such as it is, basically represents the desires of a bunch of jerks who want to rule the city from afar, and of the people who operate the New York Times.

The Rambam has a surprising ruling regarding the case of a person who recited a different Beracha than the Beracha he had intended to recite. One example is a person who is reciting Birkot Ha'shahar (the morning blessings), and while reciting the Beracha of "Poke'ah Ivrim" – fully intending to recite this Beracha – he mindlessly completed the Beracha with the words "Matir Asurim," instead of "Poke'ah Ivrim." The Rambam rules that the person has fulfilled the requirement to recite "Poke'ah Ivrim," despite the fact that he recited the wrong words. Hacham Bension Abba Shaul (Jerusalem, 1924-1998) explains that according to the Rambam, the critical component of a Beracha is the recitation of the words "Baruch Ata Hashem Elokenu Melech Ha'olam" with the intention of completing the Beracha. Of course, we are supposed to complete the Beracha properly, verbally expressing our intentions. But if a person mistakenly failed to do so, then although he ended up reciting the wrong Beracha, he is credited with the recitation of the Beracha that he had intended to recite. Others, however, disagree with the Rambam, dismissing this novel theory, and insisting that a person cannot be credited with the recitation of a Beracha unless he indeed recited it properly. The Shulhan Aruch brings both opinions. Hacham Bension ruled that given the different opinions on this matter, a person who intended to recite one Beracha but instead recited a different Beracha which he was required to recite is credited with the recitation of both Berachot. In the case described above, then, the individual is considered to have fulfilled both the requirement of "Poke'ah Ivrim" and the requirement of "Matir Asurim." It should be noted, however, that if the person realized his mistake immediately after reciting the wrong text, within a couple of seconds, then he should right away correct his mistake. He will then be credited with reciting only the Beracha he had intended to recite, as he immediately corrected his mistake and recited the Beracha he had intended to recite. Summary: If a person intended to recite a certain Beracha that he was required to recite, but he mindlessly recited a different Beracha which he was required to recite, then he is credited with the recitation of both Berachot. For example, if a person intended to recite the Beracha of "Poke'ah Ivrim" in the morning, but mistakenly concluded the Beracha with the words "Matir Asurim," he is considered to have recited both Berachot. However, if he realizes he mistake within a couple of seconds after reciting the Beracha, he should immediately correct himself, and will then be credited with reciting only the Beracha he had intended to recite.

In this episode, Cory asks a powerful question every real estate investor should consider: Should I sell my rental? It's easy to assume that if a property is cash-flowing, it's worth keeping. But when you dig deeper, the numbers often tell a different story. Cory breaks down the difference between Return on Investment (ROI) and Return on Equity (ROE), and why ROE becomes more important as your property appreciates. You'll learn how mortgage paydown, rising expenses, and hidden opportunity costs affect your real return, and what to do about it. Plus, discover four key questions to ask before deciding to sell, including how tax exemptions, cap rates, and your long-term strategy factor into the equation.   Whether you're actively managing rentals or simply wondering if your equity could work harder elsewhere, this episode will help you make informed, purpose-driven financial decisions rooted in today's reality, not yesterday's assumptions.   -- This Material is Intended for General Public Use.

Neda was born in Iran to a Muslim family. She grew up as a Muslim and married a well-known Iranian athlete. But their marriage was on the rocks. At 22, feeling broken and empty, Neda called out to Allah for help. But she found no solace, and grew angry and disillusioned with a god that refused to answer her prayers. As Neda's heart continued searching, God supernaturally told a family member living in the Netherlands to go back to Iran and share the gospel of Jesus. Neda came to faith in Christ through her relative's witness and her life was radically transformed. Her husband, surprised and amazed by the change he saw in her, placed his trust in Jesus too. God faithfully restored their marriage and called them to ministry. Neda drew strength from the stories of other persecuted Christians. She read a story in a book from The Voice of the Martyrs (VOM) about a girl who was assaulted and became pregnant. Yet she responded with remarkable faith by entrusting everything, even her body, to God. God used this story to teach Neda about the importance of obedience and sacrifice despite fear of persecution and threats of imprisonment and violence. Over the next thirteen years, Neda and her husband faced increasing persecution from the Islamic government. In one incident, officials raided their home and threatened her husband at gunpoint. She and her husband ultimately decided to leave Iran, yet they continue to serve from abroad through Iran Alive Ministries. Neda encourages every Christian to lay down their own desires and fully surrender to God's will—even when it means taking up their cross and enduring suffering and persecution. She also shares specific ways to pray for Christians in Iran during the current turmoil there. The VOM App for your smartphone or tablet will help you pray daily for persecuted Christians—in Iran and other nations—throughout the year, as well as provide free access to e-books, audiobooks, video content and feature films. Download the VOM App for your iOS or Android device today.
