Gold has been surging this year—but what's behind the rise, and what should investors keep in mind before buying in?Precious metals, such as gold and silver, have long fascinated investors, particularly in times of economic uncertainty. But are they wise investments for today? If so, how should we approach them? Mark Biller joins us today to talk about investing in precious metals.Mark Biller is Executive Editor and Senior Portfolio Manager at Sound Mind Investing, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Surge in Gold and SilverGold's remarkable rise has captured headlines again, now up over $4,000 an ounce—up from about $2,600 at the start of 2025. That's a 50% gain this year on top of last year's 26% surge. Silver has jumped even higher, up roughly 60%, while gold mining stocks have more than doubled.What's behind this stunning rally? Several key forces are at play. Global central banks have been buying gold aggressively, a trend that accelerated after the U.S. froze Russia's dollar reserves in 2022. This event shook confidence in the U.S. dollar as a neutral reserve currency. Add in fears of currency debasement stemming from massive government spending since the COVID pandemic, and gold suddenly looks like a safer store of value.As investors around the world look for stability, gold—the “4,000-year-old alternative currency”—is once again shining.To understand today's prices, it helps to look at history. Adjusted for inflation, gold recently surpassed its all-time high from January 1980. Silver, meanwhile, is nearing $50 an ounce—the peak it hit in both 1980 and 2011—but still lags behind those highs when adjusted for inflation.These cycles remind investors that precious metals often move in waves—soaring during manias, then enduring long pullbacks. After its 1980 peak, silver prices dropped nearly 90%; after 2011, they fell by about 70%. Understanding those cycles helps set realistic expectations and temper “gold rush” enthusiasm.Gold as a Store of ValueUnlike stocks or bonds, gold doesn't produce income or dividends. That makes it tricky to value—but also unique. It's not a productive asset; it's a preservative one.For centuries, an ounce of gold could buy a fine men's suit. The same holds true today, illustrating its enduring purchasing power. Gold's real role isn't to generate profit—it's to store value when currencies lose theirs.Viewed this way, gold functions as an alternative currency to the world's paper money systems. As inflation rises and confidence in traditional currencies wavers, gold's relative stability stands out.Gold's appeal intensifies during uncertainty. Whether it's inflation, war, or financial instability, investors turn to gold as a hedge. While Americans rarely consider regime changes, history is filled with nations where financial systems collapsed, and gold helped preserve wealth across transitions.Even in less dramatic times, when governments respond to crises by printing more money, gold tends to perform well. As fear increases, so does the appetite for precious metals.Gold, Silver, and Mining Stocks: Knowing the DifferenceEach part of the precious metals market serves a different role:Gold is the foundation—a global monetary metal and store of value. It's what central banks buy, and it tends to be more stable.Silver is both a monetary and an industrial metal. Its demand fluctuates more with the economy, primarily due to uses in electronics and solar panels. That makes it more volatile—but also more accessible to smaller investors.Mining Stocks are speculative. While they can surge when gold prices rise, they're also risky. Over the long term, mining stocks have underperformed, so investors should approach them with caution.How to Invest Wisely in Precious MetalsWe recommend a balanced approach: Physical gold and silver provide direct ownership and long-term stability. However, storage and security are concerns, so it's best to keep this allocation small—around 5% of your portfolio.ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds) offer convenience and liquidity. They're ideal for active management and diversification.Combining both approaches provides flexibility and peace of mind—anchoring part of your wealth in tangible assets while keeping another portion readily accessible for use.As with any investment, precious metals should be approached with discipline and perspective. They're best viewed as part of a long-term diversification strategy—not a get-rich-quick play.To learn more about investing wisely in gold and silver, Sound Mind Investing has released a free special report for Faith & Finance listeners.

It's well built but always needs work. Thankfully, I can handle many of the repairs myself, as I come from a family of electricians and real estate professionals. The issue is, I can't seem to deduct much of what I do on my taxes, even though I spend a lot of time maintaining the property. I also sometimes barter with family and friends, helping them with projects in exchange for their help. Is there a legal way for me to charge for some of my time or count this work toward deductions?I've got about $7,000 to $8,000 in credit card debt, and I'll be leaving my job soon. I have a 401(k) with a balance similar to mine, and I know that taking it out early means incurring taxes and penalties. Would it make sense to cash out my 401(k) to pay off my credit cards, or would you recommend an alternative approach?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Sound Mind Investing (SMI)Inflation History: The Rise and Fall of the U.S. Dollar (Free Report by Sound Mind Investing)Christian Credit CounselorsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Tommy Visaggio, Founder and Managing Member of Viza Property Management, for a wide-ranging conversation on investing smart, scaling responsibly, and managing real estate with a long-term mindset. Tommy began his journey with no industry connections, taking an unpaid internship in finance that provided him with early exposure to commercial real estate deals and loan structures. From there, he rolled up his sleeves, learned through experience, and built both a real estate portfolio and a property management company that serves clients throughout New Jersey. Tommy shares how his early deals—flipping homes and buying multifamily properties—taught him the importance of buying right, learning from mistakes, and staying involved with tenants and municipalities. As he expanded into small mixed-use buildings, he discovered the value in providing quality rental units and maintaining strong relationships with local governments. His business grew not just from acquisitions, but also from his ability to self-manage properties and eventually turn that experience into a scalable property management company. The conversation also dives into the business of managing for others. Tommy discusses his approach to building systems, earning trust from landlords, and gradually expanding into third-party management and HOA contracts. Jonathan and Tommy discuss how effective property management can protect investors from risk, enhance tenant retention, and generate more consistent long-term income. They also touch on mixed-use properties as a way to combine residential stability with the upside of commercial retail, especially in emerging Main Street communities. Tommy's approach emphasizes calculated growth, risk management, and keeping things personal. Whether he's onboarding a new HOA or helping a landlord turn around a rental, he stays focused on systems, communication, and protecting all parties involved. For newer investors or landlords considering management support, this episode offers a clear look at how to build wisely and why the right relationships matter more than ever. In this episode, you will hear: Starting with a finance background and scaling into real estate What early renovation mistakes taught Tommy about risk and pricing Why South Jersey offers better yield and fewer regulatory challenges How to handle tenant relationships in lower-rent markets Building a property management firm from internal systems Vetting landlords just as carefully as managing tenants Expanding into HOA management and how it's different from rentals Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Target Market Insights: Multifamily Real Estate Marketing Tips
Paul Shannon is a real estate investor, fund manager, and co-host of the PassivePockets podcast. After spending 15 years in medical device sales, Paul transitioned into full-time real estate in 2019. He has acquired over 200 residential units through creative strategies like BRRRR and joint ventures and is an LP in 40+ deals across multifamily, industrial, debt funds, and more. Today, he runs Invest Wise Collective, an opportunistic investment fund focused on delivering diversified returns through both GP and LP positions. Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Must Ask, here. Key Takeaways Paul left a successful sales career to pursue real estate full-time after realizing he wanted more purpose, freedom, and control. He failed as a property manager early on but used that lesson to scale through partnerships and better team delegation. Invest Wise Collective takes a capital-agnostic, asset-agnostic approach to investing—balancing risk, return, and diversification. Passive investors should focus on sponsor alignment, risk tolerance, and consistent underwriting inputs over flashy return metrics. Community and mentorship are essential for new and seasoned LPs alike—there's power in learning from others' experiences. Topics From Medical Sales to Real Estate Freedom Paul started with single-family rentals and flips, managing properties himself while still in corporate sales. In 2019, he left his W2 job with a modest portfolio, savings runway, and a desire to build something meaningful. A pivotal moment came when he outsourced property management and focused on acquisitions, unlocking rapid growth. The Rise of Invest Wise Collective In 2023, Paul and partners launched a fund to pool capital and invest across asset classes. The fund focuses on both GP and LP positions, enabling flexible capital deployment based on risk-reward profiles. Their early strategy emphasized debt positions for income and capital preservation, later pivoting to multifamily as opportunities emerged. Lessons for New Passive Investors Focus on the sponsor first, then the deal—good operators can rescue average deals; bad ones can ruin great ones. Underwriting inputs matter more than IRR projections—don't get seduced by high returns without understanding the assumptions. Diversify across operators, asset types, and loan maturities to mitigate risks like market timing or interest rate exposure. Don't let FOMO drive decisions—there will always be more deals. Be intentional, not reactive. The Power of Community: Passive Pockets Paul is co-host of Passive Pockets, formerly Left Field Investors, now owned by BiggerPockets. The platform provides deal reviews, sponsor evaluations, educational content, and LP peer collaboration. It helps investors go from 100-level beginners to 500-level LPs through shared experience and due diligence transparency.

Welcome to another Big Picture episode of the Michael Yardney podcast, where I chat with leading financial commentator Pete Wargent. Since our last chat, a lot's happened, including rising inflation causing embarrassment to the Reserve Bank, with some commentators now speculating interest rates will rise again. As usual, there are clues in the news as to what's ahead for our economy and our housing markets and we discuss a raft of macro and microeconomic factors that should give you some clues as to what's ahead for our housing markets. Housing Market Hurdles and Economic Trends in Australia We discuss: ● The May inflation figures and their potential impact on future interest rate hikes ● How government spending, particularly federal and state budgets, is contributing to inflation ● Rising living costs and electricity prices and their effects on spending habits across different demographics ● Challenges faced by the Australian government's target to build 1.2 million homes by 2029 o High cash rates o Reduced investor interest o Soaring construction costs ● Comparing current construction trends to peak periods like 2017 ● The roles of foreign buyers in the market ● Insights from Pete's book, The Buy Right Approach to Property Investing Mastering the Skills to Invest Wisely in Properties. This episode is packed with expert insights from Pete and practical tips, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding and navigating the complexities of Australia's economic and housing market landscape.

The Reserve Bank wants that, but that may slow inflationary pressures down a little bit. But there's still jobs out there if you're wanting them.” – Michael Yardney “The message here is most of the critics actually sit on the sidelines. They're not in the arena, they don't try.” – Michael Yardney PLEASE LEAVE US A REVIEW Reviews are hugely important to me because they help new people discover this podcast.

Only a few months ago, there was talk about the hope of interest rates starting to fall by the middle of this year. Australia's biggest bank in CBA suggested there could be six cuts in interest rates over the next two years. And then things changed, inflation remained more stubborn and the economy grew strongly and suddenly there was talk of potential interest rate rises. What's ahead for interest rates and our property markets? There are clues in the news as to what's ahead, which I will discuss in this month's podcast with leading financial commentator Pete Wargent, who brings decades of perspective to his views. As always, we will discuss a raft of macro and micro economic factors that should give you clues as to what's ahead for our housing markets.

Be prepared to invest in quality services. Although this may appear somewhat self-serving coming from a business coach, the principle extends to various fields, including law and accounting. I've observed this pattern not only in my current work with business owners but also during my own entrepreneurial ventures. Often, when embarking on projects or seeking services, new business owners determine their budget first and then settle for a service that fits within those financial constraints. To foster genuine business growth, it's crucial to identify your needs first and then strategize how to allocate the necessary resources to meet those needs effectively. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-inventive-journey/message
