Podcasts about invested

This week, Alan and Kathryn continue our new series on ‘Invested' and share on the theme of Worship and Prayer. Worship is all about Jesus—it's not about what we get, but what we give. We give Him our best, and we give it fresh. We don't hold anything back, and we don't let anything get in the way. Worship is meant to be steeped in praise, not stuck in ritual. Hebrews 13 reminds us: “Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God”, True worship means going “outside the camp” with Jesus, bearing His reproach and offering Him everything. Isaiah echoes this call: “Sing to the Lord a new song, His praise from the ends of the earth”. As we give ourselves in worship and prayer, we align our hearts with His Kingdom and prepare room for the new things He wants to do.

In this episode of The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex, we sit down with Dr. Alex Planes—an inspiring entrepreneur who turned humble beginnings and massive adversity into a thriving multi–eight-figure dental empire. From moving to the Dominican Republic at 21 with no clear path, to battling financial stress, rejection, and even discrimination, Dr. Planes never let setbacks define him. Instead, he built a blueprint for growth—scaling practices from $300K to $2.5M in record time. You'll hear how Alex: Used vision boards, mindset, and resilience to overcome self-doubt and tough circumstances. Invested in professional development and team training to multiply revenue tenfold. Applied marketing strategies—direct mail, SEO, and social media—to drive massive patient growth. Transitioned from dentist to consultant, helping others build their own dental empires. Whether you're a dentist, entrepreneur, or simply chasing growth in your own life, this conversation is packed with lessons on faith, focus, and execution.

GS#432 & 433 April 15, 2014 What does it take to drop 10 strokes from your score? Traditional stats -- fairways/greens/putts per round -- don't answer these questions. Just before the release of his book, Every Shot Counts: Using the Revolutionary Strokes Gained Approach to Improve Your Golf Performance and Strategy, Professor Mark Broadie introduced us to his theory. He wasn't sure if this idea would be accepted, but today, it's critical on every level of competitive golf. This is the full 65 minute interview that were originally published as two episodes. In part2 of the conversation, we ask what about the rest of us?! We dig into how objective analysis of scoring data can help us lower our scores.This episode is brought to you by 5Hour Energy. 5-hour ENERGY Transfusion flavor is available online or in stores.

It's another packed and mixed bag of questions here on Meaningful Money. Today we deal with Seafarer's pension contributions, tax-free cash on DB pension schemes and annual allowance calculations. Plus we give some thought to the evolution of the show… Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA25    01:10  Question 1 Hi Pete and Roger Many thanks for all that you do.  I am a long time podcast listener and happy client of Jacksons. I am currently playing catch up on the current series and have a couple of thoughts on points raised in two episodes. In episode 3 - there was a question on pensions and the answer included the point that when making contributions to a scheme they are generally paid net and the scheme reclaims basic rate tax from HMRC.  Just to say that this is not always the case.  My employer recently moved its scheme to an Aviva master trust.  I wanted to make a lump sum co tribute. Ahead of the tax year end.  However I found that the scheme could only accept gross contributions and I would have to reclaim the tax myself.  As it was quite a decent sum and I preferred not to wait for the tax I made the contribution into a different scheme. In episode 7 you had a question about moving abroad.  The point we made that you can't continue to contribute to UK tax favoured schemes when abroad which is correct.  However there is another watch out in that ISAs in particular may be subject to income tax in the new country of residence - as they were when j lived in the US.  It is therefore critical to get advice so you can make the right choices when moving abroad All the best, Richard 05:06  Question 2 I have been listening to your podcast for the last 5 or 6 months. Like so many of your listeners, I have spent many hours catching up on your early episodes, no longer do I watch movies or drama series or wildlife programmes. I listen to Pete. Your advice has been priceless. However, I do have a question that I seemingly cannot find the answer to. Perhaps, I already know the answer, but am putting my head in the sand because I do not like it. I know that the pension tax free lump sum is limited to £268,275 and I believe that this applies to the total taken from multiple pensions. I retired from the police in 2013 as a chief inspector. I took the maximum lump sum available at the time which was £206,000. I started a new job with the NHS and am paying into the NHS 2015 scheme. My projection on retirement from the NHS at age 67 suggests that I can expect a lump sum that combined with my police pension lump sum will take me well beyond £268,275. I have seen some articles on line about lump sum protected allowances, but do not know if this is something I can access. Clearly, if all I can take from my NHS pension is £62,275 I will be paying 40% on a greater proportion of my pension in payment. I suspect there may be others like me that maxed our their lump sum when first retiring and have gone on to further employment and have built up a tidy pension that has the potential to pay out another handsome lump sum. Your advice is gratefully appreciated. Kind regards, John 11:25  Question 3 Hi Pete and Rog Always a delight when a new episode comes out – I hope Rog is getting fairly compensated for his efforts! I have been a keen listener for a number of years though until recently had lived outside of the UK, so while not everything was applicable (ISAs or pension contribution limits etc), the podcast has always been a valuable tool as I improve my personal finances I have a question I was hoping you could clarify for me which relates to questions you answered on previous podcast Q&A. Trying to keep it short but failing: On a couple of occasions when talking about pensions there seems to be an assumption that your income will fall in retirement and so income tax on the way out of the pension is less relevant. You recently had a question around moving money from a Lifetime ISA to a SIPP for a higher rate tax payer who was moving abroad and the calculation / discussion went something like: Invested 4k, got the extra 1k but have to take a 25% penalty when taking the money out so down to 3.75k. Then when investing that back into a SIPP you get tax relief so back up to 4.7k or even 6.25 with higher rate relief. Then the discussion seemed to suggest in such a case you might even be better off than if you had left it in the LISA. However, doesn't this depend on what your tax rate is on retirement / withdrawal? Now on to my question: Similarly, you had someone who had maxed out their annual pension contribution limit and they were trying to decide whether to pay more in to their pension (foregoing the tax relief) or to put it in to a GIA. This is a situation I find myself in and the Q&A discussion seemed to suggest it doesn't make much difference. There were comments that an ISA would be better than a GIA but assuming the ISA allowance was already fully used then there was little difference. This confused me and brings me to my question. If I overpay into a pension and so get no tax relief, don't I still pay income tax when I withdraw the money from the pension? So for any contribution above the annual limit I receive no tax relief initially (ie I have effectively paid tax) but then future withdraws from a pension are taxable so I pay tax again when I retire. Is this the case or is there some way the pension knows what proportion of the pot received tax relief and what proportion didn't? If no such split exists then surely a GIA is a far better option where I will only pay CGT on any growth in the investment (or income tax on dividends). Imagine a situation where there is no growth or dividends then in a GIA I take the initial money back out with no tax to pay, in the pension I still pay income tax on the withdrawal. What am I missing here? Kind regards, Matt 17:02  Question 4 Hi - love the podcast and really enjoying the Q&A series! Keep up the great work! I was hoping you can assist me. I have a pretty simple salary structure and lucky to earn annually (salary and bonus) around 190k. I'm looking at what I can add to my pension and very aware of the 60k limit and also the 200k income threshold. Is it as a simple as if my only income stream is from employment, that by definition in the above scenario I'm below the £200k. Or am I missing anything else that feeds into this as a consideration? Thanks, Steve 20:20  Question 5 Thank you Pete & Roger for an amazingly insightful informative podcast. This has given me a giant springboard to the next level of financial literacy. My question is: I am a seafarer and all of my income from it is subject to seafarers earnings deductions (SED). My annual salary is £79,000. How much can I pay into a SIPP claiming the full amount of tax relief given that all of my income is subjected to SED? Thanks very much for everything you do. Kind regards, Benjamin 24:00  Question 6 Absolutely love the podcast - always look forward to driving home on a Wednesday so I can listen to it. I'm 47 and my husband is 55 and we have 2 fabulous children aged 13 & 11. I am an additional rate taxpayer and have a good DB pension for the future (NHS consultant). My husband did the tougher job of being a full time Dad so only has a small SIPP at present worth about £50,000 which we add £2880 to each year. I am hoping to retire early so we are building our Stocks & Shares ISAs each year to bridge the gaps between my retirement and state pension etc although we don't use the full allowance at present although may do in the future as my pay increases. We just wanted advice about the best way to extract the money from my husbands SIPP. He works a few hours now making approximately £5000 per year so is a non-taxpayer (and all our emergency cash is in his name!). We had planned to start drawing down his pension in a few years once fully retired to try to get it all tax free before his state pension kicks in but we don't actually need the cash and thus it would be reinvested into his ISA. Is there any reason not just to start that process now so we put the money in the ISA gradually over the next few years (bearing in mind that we may be able to fill our ISAs in the future)? Can we still top up with £2880 each year one this process has started? Maybe this sounds like an obvious thing to do but just can't work out if its the correct path? Thanks so much, Ciara Mulligan   30:10  Podcast and Video plans.

Today we begin a new journey together called Invested. Hebrews 12 paints a picture of discipleship that isn't casual—it's costly, purposeful, and transforming. How do we really follow Jesus and grow in our faith? Not by staying passive, but by becoming passionate. Not just interested, but invested. The Father trains us with purpose, shaping us through discipline, hardship, and community so that we become more equipped, more alive in His will, and more fruitful for His Kingdom. Keep your eyes on Jesus (with expectation), and do what He tells you to do (in obedience) and trust Him to bring it to completion.

Smart investors are discovering that success isn’t about chasing hype - it’s about cultivating insight. In this revealing first conversation with Lawrence Lam, founder and managing director of Lumenary and author of The Founder Effect, Bushy Martin explores why long-term investment success depends more on people, purpose, and principle than on spreadsheets and short-term returns. Lawrence shares his journey from APRA and high finance to launching a values-driven investment firm that backs founder-led businesses with enduring potential. Along the way, he explains why character, intent, and systems matter more than numbers, how to recognise and reduce the “invisible tax” of bias, and what it means to taste-test investments the way a winemaker judges vintages. You’ll discover: Why return on insight outperforms return on hype How judgment is shaped and clouded by unseen bias Why leading your wealth journey like a founder helps you avoid following the herd How Lawrence’s upbringing and career shaped his philosophy on alignment and long-term conviction This is part one of a two-part series with Lawrence. Next week, we’ll dive into his book The Founder Effect and the frameworks you can use to invest with clarity and conviction. So if you’re ready to tune out the noise and start investing with vision, character, and courage — let’s get invested.

Is commercial property the hidden engine room for smart investors? In this week’s episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin continues his deep dive with commercial property specialist Simon Borham to uncover the secrets, strategies and risks that every aspiring investor needs to understand.

You might already be familiar with filling out the FAFSA form, or you might only know it by reputation. That reputation is somewhere between filing your annual income taxes and running an Ironman triathalon. Revisions, technology issues and widespread confusion over the availability of the form over the past two years might make it seem even more sinister.Let's back up. What is the FAFSA? If you have a child finishing high school this school year, the FAFSA plays a big part in determining how much financial aid you could receive—including grants, loans and scholarships—to help pay for college. In Indiana, most families are now required by law to fill out the FAFSA unless they seek a waiver.   Despite recent tumult, all signs point to the FAFSA being ready to fill out this year by the traditional launch date of Oct. 1. Our guest this week is Bill Wozniak, vice president and chief marketing officer of INvestEd, a nonprofit based in Indianapolis and created by the Indiana Legislature to help families navigate the FAFSA process. He provides an overview for the uninitiated and shares some of the biggest misconceptions of FAFSA. For example, if you think you are sufficiently wealthy to put any financial assistance out of reach, you very well could be wrong. If you think you just need to get it done by the end of the year, you might want to think again. And, Wozniak says, the process isn't nearly as arduous today as its reputation might suggest.

A lot of changes led to me having to put the podcast on pause over the summer, but most of everything people talk about over that time is a little overrated anyways. But we are back!

Secondary-Signing Nate Hobbs-Cutting Jaire Alexander3. Wide Receiver-2025 1st Rounder Matthew Golden-2025 3rd Rounder Savion Williams

GS#420 January 21, 2014  NFL head coach Pete Carroll was a long time friend, and former sports psychology student at University of Pacific of this week's guest, Dr. Glen Albaugh. On the cover of Glen's book, “Winning the Battle Within” Coach Carroll is quoted as saying “Glen's teachings helped form my coaching philosophy.” Whether you're rooting for Pete or not, you have to admire his attitude, and his approach to competition and winning.  Dr. Glen Albaugh has created a unique Applied Sport Psychology Consulting Service for a wide range of professional and amateur golfers. Formerly a sports psychology instructor at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California for 28 years where he coached the Pacific Tigers golf team. It was during this time, while working with the finest sports psychologists, coaches and golf instructors in the world, that he formulated the basis for the principles in his renowned book, which was authored with Michael Bowker, Winning the Battle Within. These principles have been refined over the years through applications and consultations with established touring pros, and a broad-base of amateurs – juniors to elite. By establishing structure in pre, post and in-between shot routines, Glen gives golfers the ability to apply his most profound insight “the perfect swing is the one you trust”. In Winning the Battle Within – this podcast episode, the book, and his workshop/consultations – Glen features quality practice describing drills that will enhance learning and improve performance.Get more when your visit the refreshed golfsmarter.com!Introduce an Upcoming Episode: Receive free gifts for recording a show opening by clicking on "Record Your Show Open Here!" tab on the right side of golfsmarter.com. Watch Daily Video Highlights from Our Interviews: Follow @golfsmarter on Instagram, X, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube daily to see our highlights and helpful insights from our interviews on the podcast. Post a Review: you'll receive three free gifts when you post an honest review about Golf Smarter the podcast.Fill Out a Listener Survey: It only takes a few minutes to fill out our survey, which helps us to better serve your interests in the podcast.

Hello to you, Annie Jesperson & Nathaniel Talbot listening from Deep Harvest Farm on Whidbey Island!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (& a bit more goodness) for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.  Every week I head over to Deep Harvest Farm from July through Thanksgiving to fill my basket with organic produce as a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) member. Early in day the CSA members get an email with a list of what's been harvested, a recipe or two and a musing by Farmer Annie like this one, The Fallacy of Sunk Costs. Maybe like me you'll recognize yourself in her words:          The Fallacy of Sunk Costs [~ by Annie Jesperson]“Sometimes a benefit and other times a detriment of long farm days are the countless hours alone with one's thoughts. A morning spent pruning tomatoes and dragging irrigation lines offers opportunity to practice deep breathing, mindfully listen to the sparrow songs or to stew on last night's sub-optimal conversation with your sister while mentally spiraling about foreign affairs.There's time for it all! We spend many moments with the gentle coo of the wind but also keep our brains stimulated with a wide assortment of podcasts. A few of us love "The Gray Area with Sean Illing," which is a philosophy show that covers culture, politics, and other big conversation topics.I'm pretty sure it was here, I learned about one of my now favorite philosophical principles that comes in handy most farm days and in the rest of life, too. It's called “The fallacy of sunk costs.” Anyone else a fan?? This concept expresses the mental error in one's tendency to keep going on an endeavor just for the sake of finishing it. You've invested some time, money, and energy so you want to complete a task even if the costs of completing it outweigh the positives. It's knowing when to cut losses and till in those overly weedy carrots, shrug your shoulders and leave the last 10% of the giant fruit tree unpruned or close the book you're not loving and pick up something else. There's nothing to gain by doing otherwise!Every day, we look at our mammoth to-do list and decide what's a priority and what just isn't going to happen and not infrequently we kiss some hard work goodbye for the sake of future plantings and more vital tasks. Prioritizing and letting go might be a farmer's most important skills as well as life talents, too, aiding us in the efficiency, time, productivity and happiness of Life!”Click HERE to visit Deep Harvest Farm,  learn about the farm & its farmers, sign up for the Seed Newsletter for hot garden tips, farm news and seed discounts, join the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Farm Share, AND shop the 170 varieties of Certified Organic, Open-Pollinated, & Non-GMO seed proven to thrive in the Pacific Northwest: FLOWER SEEDS  ~  VEGETABLE & HERB SEEDSThank you for listening!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

You can also see it on YouTube.The regulated investment crowdfunding market is experiencing a remarkable resurgence, with $450 million invested in the first half of 2025—a sign of renewed growth and confidence in this alternative financing method. After a pullback following the 2021 peak, this year's upswing is breathing new life into opportunities for both entrepreneurs and investors.Brian Belley, Vice President of Product at Kingscrowd, shared insights on this trend during this episode of the “Superpowers for Good” show. He highlighted the resilience of the market, noting, “The numbers were actually very encouraging for this year. So over the first six months, over the first half of the year, there was $450 million committed to these campaigns that are being done online to these offerings.”Despite economic uncertainty and public market volatility earlier this year, investors continued to support small businesses and startups. As Belley explained, “We actually raised $450 million in spite of all of that that was going on.” Beyond the investment totals, this capital is fueling job creation and economic activity across communities.Both Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) are seeing significant participation. Regulation A campaigns attracted $250 million, while Reg CF brought in $200 million—up 9% from last year. Belley pointed out, “In the case of Regulation A, that even exceeded the first six months even going back to 2021,” signaling the historic nature of this year's growth.One reason for Reg CF's continued appeal is its accessibility, with minimum investments as low as $50 or $100. Belley said, “The average investment size, check size, as we refer to it, does tend to be in that $1,000 to $1,200 range... there are some bigger investors out there as well who are investing in these companies.” This democratization of investing is helping more people participate in early-stage ventures.Recent successful offerings, such as the Newsmax Reg A+ campaign that raised $75 million, show how large brands can leverage their audiences to achieve record-breaking results. Such campaigns also demonstrate how regulated crowdfunding can bridge the gap between private and public markets, sometimes allowing shares to become tradable soon after the raise.Kingscrowd's projections suggest that the sector could reach $900 million by year's end, potentially rivaling or even surpassing the 2021 record. For founders seeking capital and investors seeking opportunities, the data points to a robust and promising period for regulated investment crowdfunding.For those interested in learning more, Belley's latest report is available at s4g.biz/king or kingscrowd.com, offering data, insights, and tools to help navigate this dynamic market.tl;dr:The episode highlights a renewed surge in regulated investment crowdfunding, with $450 million raised early in 2025.Brian Belley of Kingscrowd shares data and trends, showing growth in both Reg A and Reg CF offerings.Reg CF's accessibility empowers everyday investors and helps democratize early-stage investment opportunities.The Newsmax Reg A+ campaign illustrates how major brands can achieve record-breaking success through pre-IPO crowdfunding.The episode closes with practical advice for founders and investors to benefit from the evolving crowdfunding landscape.The Newsmax offering stands out as a prime example of pre-IPO crowdfunding. As Brian Belley explained, “Something very unique with the Newsmax offering is this ability where it was kind of this pre-IPO offering, where the shares that were purchased were essentially then kind of uplisted. They were listed on a public exchange after the Reg A offering, and they then became tradable.” This structure enabled investors not only to back a familiar media brand but also to access liquidity by trading their shares soon after the campaign, a feature rarely seen in traditional crowdfunding.The Newsmax Reg A+ campaign showcased how a company can leverage its established audience to fuel a record-breaking raise. With a large, engaged base, Newsmax was able to reach supporters eager for both financial returns and a chance to connect with the brand's mission. After the campaign, the shares became tradable on a public exchange, and early trading saw the stock price soar, providing some investors with significant short-term gains before stabilizing. This example demonstrates how regulated crowdfunding can bridge private capital raising and public market liquidity, offering tangible rewards and flexibility to investors.Build and engage a strong community or audience before launching any campaignLeverage brand recognition and trust to attract committed investorsStructure offerings with potential paths to liquidity, such as post-raise public tradingWork with experienced platforms and broker-dealers to maximize reach and regulatory complianceCommunicate risks and rewards transparently to set realistic investor expectationsGuest ProfileBrian Belley (he/him):Vice President, Product, KingscrowdAbout Kingscrowd: Kingscrowd is a team of financiers, venture capitalists, technologists, founders, and experts on a mission to democratize private market investing.

GS#1010 This time on the Golf Smarter Podcast, Eric Alpenfels, Director of Instruction at Pinehurst,  discusses the innovative approach of instinct putting, which encourages golfers to focus on the hole rather than the ball. Alpenfels shares insights on how this technique can improve distance control and overall performance on the green, while also discussing the evolution of golf equipment and the importance of trust in the putting process. His latest book, 'Evidence-Based Golf,' contrasts empirical and non-empirical evidence, emphasizing the need for golf instructors to rely on research rather than anecdotal evidence. Please check out this article about Fred's golf and podcast journey called "A Lifetime On The Air" that was published in the NCGA Magazine (Northern California Golf Association) recently!    Get more when your visit the refreshed golfsmarter.com!Introduce an Upcoming Episode: Receive free gifts for recording a show opening by clicking on "Record Your Show Open Here!" tab on the right side of golfsmarter.com. Watch Daily Video Highlights from Our Interviews: Follow @golfsmarter on Instagram, X, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube daily to see our highlights and helpful insights from our interviews on the podcast. Post a Review: you'll receive three free gifts when you post an honest review about Golf Smarter the podcast.Fill Out a Listener Survey: It only takes a few minutes to fill out our survey, which helps us to better serve your interests in the podcast.

GS#405 October 8, 2013 Despite strict USGA guidelines, not all golf clubs perform the same. Golf Professionals play with sticks that are meticulously tailored to their swing. Amateur golfers make purchases based on what the Pros play. No matter their skill level, few golfers take advantage of being fitted for clubs that compliment their swing style. Host Fred Greene is in the market for a new Driver, fairway driver, and hybrids and was amazed to learn how different each club performs for his swing.
