I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW In this energetic and motivational conversation, Hall of Fame speaker Dr. Willie Jolley joins Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass to discuss his new book, “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better.” The interview covers the difference between being rich and being wealthy, the mindsets required for long-term financial growth, and how individuals—no matter their background—can build generational wealth. Jolley also emphasizes discipline, humility, planning, multiple streams of income, overcoming setbacks, and the importance of insurance and protection of assets. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The interview aims to: 1. Introduce and promote Dr. Jolley’s new book “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better” and the teachings within it. 2. Educate listeners on the distinction between rich and wealthy Jolley wants audiences to understand wealth in generational, not short-term, terms. 3. Motivate individuals to shift their financial mindset From “working money” to “mailbox money.” 4. Empower entrepreneurs and families To adopt discipline, drop pride, and create multigenerational financial systems. 5. Share Jolley’s personal setback‑to‑success story To reinforce that anyone can grow wealth with the right principles. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Rich vs. Wealthy Being rich = high income, often tied to active labor (e.g., athlete contracts). Being wealthy = passive income, ownership, generational sustainability. A rich football player earns millions; the team owner earns billions and doesn’t have to “run up and down the field.” 2. The Five Money Mindsets Jolley explains five financial mindsets: One‑day mindset – living day to day. 30‑day mindset – fixed incomes/check-to-check living. One‑year mindset – annual thinking (raises, annual income). Decade mindset – typical for entertainers/athletes with multi‑year contracts. Generational mindset (Wealth Mindset) – building wealth to last multiple generations. Jolley’s goal: move people up just one level at a time. 3. Five Types of Wealth Jolley breaks wealth into five categories: Financial Wealth Health Wealth (“A sick person has one dream; a healthy person has a thousand.” – Les Brown) Relationship Wealth Reputational Wealth (Brand) Intellectual Capital Wealth (What you know and can charge for) 4. Discipline Is the Key Wealth requires: Living below your means Investing the difference Consistency Avoiding arrogance and ignorance 5. Pride Is an Enemy of Wealth Pride leads people to overspend to keep up appearances.Jolley argues that pride “kills wealth” and must be replaced with planning and humility. 6. The Three Legs of Wealth To build sustainable wealth, you need: Income Investment (letting money work for you) Insurance (life, health, car, disability, long-term care) 7. Multiple Streams of Income Jolley urges everyone to build at least two streams of income from: Stocks Bonds Real estate Crypto Collectibles Jewelry Art Content creation 8. Overcoming Setbacks Jolley details his own journey from unemployed nightclub singer to globally recognized motivational speaker.He reinforces that a setback is a setup for a comeback—the core message of his earlier bestselling book. 9. It’s Never Too Late to Start He cites examples of: A secretary who retired with $8M by investing small amounts over time Invested $12,000 at age 65 and grew it to $890,000 by age 72 NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Time & Opportunity “I have only just a minute… but it’s up to me to use it.” On Mindset “Wealth starts in your mind.” On Rich vs. Wealthy “Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.” On Pride “My pride was killing my wealth.” On Growth & Learning “If you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you.” [On Setbacks “A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.” On Starting Late “When is the best time to plant a tree? Eighty years ago. The second-best time? Today.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They're 42. They're doing everything right. $185,000 household income. 15% to retirement. Emergency fund solid. Almost no debt. And yet… they're exhausted. This week's email comes from a couple who can absolutely afford help — but still live like they're one missed paycheck away from disaster. They mow their own lawn. Scrub their own bathrooms. Meal prep every Sunday. Fix everything themselves. They optimize every dollar. Then a simple debate changes everything. A cleaning service would cost $4,200 a year. Invested for 20 years? Roughly $100,000. Or… 40 Saturdays back with their kids. That question hits hard: At what point does buying time become wiser than squeezing every dollar? In this episode, Pete, Dame, and Kristen tackle one of the most uncomfortable financial transitions of midlife — shifting from survival mode to optimization mode. You'll hear: • Why scarcity mindset can linger long after you're financially secure • The three currencies of life: money, time, and energy • When convenience spending is actually smart leverage • How to tell the difference between efficiency and lifestyle creep • The “Regret Test” that instantly clarifies big decisions Is hiring help irresponsible… or strategic? Is frugality always virtuous… or sometimes just fear in disguise? If you've ever calculated the future value of skipping Starbucks while secretly wishing for one less thing on your weekend to-do list, this one is for you. Because the goal isn't to die with the highest net worth. The goal is to use money in a way that honors your finite time. You can always earn more money. You cannot earn another Tuesday.

Kasey and Nick sit down with Simon Erickson, founder of 7Investing, to break down the staggering $364 billion spent on CapEx by Meta, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon last year alone. In this deep dive, we discuss:-- Why companies like Google and Amazon are vertically integrating their own hardware (TPUs) to avoid Nvidia's high margins. --Apple's "Patient" Approach: Why Apple's flat CapEx isn't a sign of weakness, but a calculated move to let others foot the bill for early-stage inefficiencies. --Real-World AI Monetization: From "eliminating inefficiencies" in energy and healthcare to the shift from subscription models to usage-based AI agents. --The Future of Investing: How AI is automating the "grunt work" of stock picking while increasing the importance of human empathy and trust.

In this episode, President and Senior Financial Planner Paul L. Moffat and Director of Financial Planning Jordan Naffa take a comprehensive look back at the market performance of 2025 and the key lessons investors can carry forward. Despite widespread predictions of a lackluster year, global markets delivered strong and in many cases exceptional returns across multiple asset classes.Paul and Jordan break down performance across U.S. equities, international developed markets, emerging markets, real estate, and fixed income. They highlight how globally diversified portfolios benefited from strength outside the United States, and why investors who stayed disciplined during periods of volatility were ultimately rewarded. The discussion also covers sector performance within large growth, small value, and emerging markets, along with a review of commodities and their long-term track record.This episode reinforces the importance of diversification, long-term perspective, and resisting short-term predictions that often miss the mark.In this episode: ● U.S., international, and emerging market performance in 2025 ● How the “steady five” asset classes compare to historical averages ● Sector breakdowns within U.S. and global equity markets ● Why international and emerging markets outperformed expectations ● Fixed income results and the role of bonds in portfolios ● Commodity performance and long-term historical perspective ● The value of discipline and global diversificationThe opinions expressed in this podcast are for general purposes only and are not intended to provide specific advice or recommendations for any individual or on any specific security.

The tentacles of Epstein's billionaire paedophile ring crossed continents, age, political persuasion and profession. That much is all clear from the files. But what we are still piecing together is how Epstein made his millions in the first place. Was it endowed? Stolen? Invested? Or blackmail?This Friday, Jon and Emily speak to American journalist, Anand Giridharadas, about the 'Epstein class' and how it was allowed to flourish. And ask whether it still exists?The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/
Track Interest, Committed, and Invested Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In raising a round of funding, most founders focus on the invested funds so far. When asked about the progress, the founder quotes the invested amount and the amount left in the raise. This undersells the traction the founder has. In addition to the invested, also track the interest and committed funds. For each investor who has some interest, ask for their level of interest. Add up all the interested investor amounts. For those who are committed but not yet invested, add up those funds as well. In discussing with prospective investors, quote the interest, commitment, and investment. This shows additional interest from investors in the round. A typical update would be, in our $1M raise, we have $600K invested, $250K committed, and interest at $800K. It's often the case that the interest and committed funds are greater than the remaining amount in the raise. This creates scarcity and generates FOMO with the investors who now see that there's not enough room to cover all potential investors. Use this to help close the fundraising round. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _________________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please follow, share, and leave a review.

In our third episode of the season, Tom Fraser, a union researcher and author of Invested in Crisis: Public Sector Pensions Against the Future, and Becca Steckle, a research and policy analyst with Just Peace Advocates, join us to discuss how Canada's public sector pensions are funding crises from housing to genocide, the restructuring of Canadian retirement security into capital funding for militarism and welfare erosion around the world and the urgent need for divestment toward a radical pension politics. According to Fraser: "What I see as specifically contradictory about the structure of the pension fund is that in an age of de-industrial capitalism returns on investment and ..profits ..are directly contradictory with the point of the pension itself … [which] is to enable the continued life of the worker after retirement. But the structure of that sort of capital accumulation necessitates taking value from those same sorts of necessities. There is a basic level contradiction in terms between the pension as finance and the pension as welfare. And they ultimately hit their collision point in the moment we call retirement." Reflecting on what pensions are funding, Steckle says: "If you look at most of all eight of those pensions … there is a significant percentage of those investments in companies that are actively funneling money, whether the companies themselves are participating in war crimes, genocide, armed conflict … For example, if you look at CPP, the Canadian Pension Plan. They had in 2025 an estimated $27 billion just invested in companies complicit in the occupation, apartheid genocide in Palestine by Israel … That doesn't include how the companies are violating Indigenous rights here in so-called Canada. That doesn't include Sudan. That doesn't include Haiti … That is just looking at Palestine." About today's guests: Tom Fraser is a researcher based in Toronto. His book on the political economy of Ontario's pension funds, Invested in Crisis: Public Sector Pensions Against the Future, was released by Between the Lines in February 2025. Becca Steckle (she/they) holds a law degree from Osgoode Hall Law School and is a registered nurse (RN, non-practicing). As a research and policy analyst at Just Peace Advocates (JPA), Steckle helps to analyze and expose institutional complicity, particularly Canadian institutional complicity in occupied Palestine and Kashmir. As part of JPA's work, they have analyzed the investment portfolios of more than 15 entities to identify companies complicit in Israel's occupation, apartheid, and genocide in the report Our Pensions Are Funding Genocide. She is deeply committed to local organizing efforts and believes in Disability Justice as a daily praxis. Transcript of this episode can be accessed at georgebrown.ca/TommyDouglasInstitute.

Thomas lives in a high-cost area where buying rentals locally simply didn't make sense for cash flow, especially as a newer investor with limited capital.Instead of forcing a bad deal in his backyard, Thomas made the decision to invest out of state.On this episode, he walks us through how he chose the markets he invested in and whether he physically visited the areas before buying.Thomas didn't just pick one market and hope for the best. Diversification was important to him, so he invested in three different areas. We talk about why he spread out his risk, how he found the properties, and why he focused on homes that needed rehab.He also explains how he built a team from a distance, including how he found contractors and property managers in multiple markets, and whether managing relationships in three different cities was as challenging as it sounds.If you're thinking about investing out of state but feel nervous about being far from your properties, this episode is packed with practical insight. Thomas shares what worked, what didn't, and how new investors can protect themselves from getting ripped off by contractors. This is a candid look at building a remote rental portfolio.https://rentalincomepodcast.com/episode561Thanks To Our Sponsors:Fundrise Income Fund - The Fund offers access to a diversified portfolio of cash flowing assets, all professionally managed by their expert team.MidSouth HomeBuyers – Turnkey Rentals In Memphis & Little Rock.

What if the biggest risk to your property portfolio isn’t interest rates - but your income? In this episode, Bushy zooms out from short-term price chatter and tackles the bigger question most investors are ignoring: how AI, automation, geopolitical fragmentation, climate risk and rising volatility could reshape Australian jobs, income security and long-term property demand over the next 10–15 years. Because property isn’t a short-term price story. It’s a long-term bet on future household incomes and scarcity. Bushy challenges the backward-looking mindset that dominates property conversations and instead builds a forward-facing filter - starting 15+ years from your end goal and working backwards. He explores why Australia is drifting toward a two-track landscape of resilient income basins and increasingly fragile pockets, and why income durability - not hype, hotspots or headlines - will determine who thrives and who gets forced to sell. A core theme of this episode is simple but confronting: income is oxygen. Portfolios don’t fail in theory - they fail through forced sales.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW In this energetic and motivational conversation, Hall of Fame speaker Dr. Willie Jolley joins Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass to discuss his new book, “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better.” The interview covers the difference between being rich and being wealthy, the mindsets required for long-term financial growth, and how individuals—no matter their background—can build generational wealth. Jolley also emphasizes discipline, humility, planning, multiple streams of income, overcoming setbacks, and the importance of insurance and protection of assets. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The interview aims to: 1. Introduce and promote Dr. Jolley’s new book “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better” and the teachings within it. 2. Educate listeners on the distinction between rich and wealthy Jolley wants audiences to understand wealth in generational, not short-term, terms. 3. Motivate individuals to shift their financial mindset From “working money” to “mailbox money.” 4. Empower entrepreneurs and families To adopt discipline, drop pride, and create multigenerational financial systems. 5. Share Jolley’s personal setback‑to‑success story To reinforce that anyone can grow wealth with the right principles. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Rich vs. Wealthy Being rich = high income, often tied to active labor (e.g., athlete contracts). Being wealthy = passive income, ownership, generational sustainability. A rich football player earns millions; the team owner earns billions and doesn’t have to “run up and down the field.” 2. The Five Money Mindsets Jolley explains five financial mindsets: One‑day mindset – living day to day. 30‑day mindset – fixed incomes/check-to-check living. One‑year mindset – annual thinking (raises, annual income). Decade mindset – typical for entertainers/athletes with multi‑year contracts. Generational mindset (Wealth Mindset) – building wealth to last multiple generations. Jolley’s goal: move people up just one level at a time. 3. Five Types of Wealth Jolley breaks wealth into five categories: Financial Wealth Health Wealth (“A sick person has one dream; a healthy person has a thousand.” – Les Brown) Relationship Wealth Reputational Wealth (Brand) Intellectual Capital Wealth (What you know and can charge for) 4. Discipline Is the Key Wealth requires: Living below your means Investing the difference Consistency Avoiding arrogance and ignorance 5. Pride Is an Enemy of Wealth Pride leads people to overspend to keep up appearances.Jolley argues that pride “kills wealth” and must be replaced with planning and humility. 6. The Three Legs of Wealth To build sustainable wealth, you need: Income Investment (letting money work for you) Insurance (life, health, car, disability, long-term care) 7. Multiple Streams of Income Jolley urges everyone to build at least two streams of income from: Stocks Bonds Real estate Crypto Collectibles Jewelry Art Content creation 8. Overcoming Setbacks Jolley details his own journey from unemployed nightclub singer to globally recognized motivational speaker.He reinforces that a setback is a setup for a comeback—the core message of his earlier bestselling book. 9. It’s Never Too Late to Start He cites examples of: A secretary who retired with $8M by investing small amounts over time Invested $12,000 at age 65 and grew it to $890,000 by age 72 NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Time & Opportunity “I have only just a minute… but it’s up to me to use it.” On Mindset “Wealth starts in your mind.” On Rich vs. Wealthy “Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.” On Pride “My pride was killing my wealth.” On Growth & Learning “If you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you.” [On Setbacks “A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.” On Starting Late “When is the best time to plant a tree?

If you’re flat-out busy, doing all the right things, but still feel like freedom keeps slipping further away - this episode is for you. This is one of those Get Invested classics that never dates, because the problem hasn’t changed: too many Aussies are working harder, earning more, and somehow ending up time-poor, stressed, and stuck. In this vault episode, Bushy challenges the traditional work/life model - the one that quietly trades your best years for busyness - and reframes wealth-building as what it actually is: a partnership and a system, not a hustle. At the heart of the conversation is a deceptively simple idea Bushy calls The Power of 2. In this episode, Bushy unpacks: Why you don’t find time to invest, you design it, on purpose How the traditional model (more work → more income → more spending) keeps families exhausted and stuck The Power of 2 advantage: two aligned people will always outperform two exhausted individuals drifting The Madison relay idea for relationships, tag-team roles so someone is always moving the freedom plan forward The worker + wealth builder dynamic: different roles, same vision, same team Why sustainable success is a 15–20 year game, and time must become your mate, not your enemy Why wealth-by-stealth beats get-rich-quick every time, boring, consistent action wins The simple action that changes everything: Bushy outlines the first practical step every couple should take - a “Power of 2 meeting.” Not a long, heavy strategy session. Just enough alignment to: Agree on the vision Clarify who’s holding the baton right now Decide the next handover No waiting for “more time.” No guilt. No burnout. Just progress. And if you want help tailoring this framework to your situation, Bushy explains how to book a Personal Solution Session (with limited weekly availability).
You've heard a lot about the stress of taking on too much risk in retirement. But as Peter with Richon Planning talks through with Erin Kennedy, playing it too safe can create just as much financial pressure. In this interview, we walk through three warning signs your portfolio may be holding you back:
As far as mantras go, Street Sharks have one about as good as they come. They fight. They bite. They stand for everything right. You can read it on the opening page of each issue of the IDW Publishing series, and as we discuss with writer Stephanie Williams this week, given everything going on in the world, it's worth repeating every time you crack open the comic. Street Sharks may have begun as a cash grab in the wake of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' success. However, under Stephanie Williams' direction, in collaboration with artist Ariel Medel, the comic book series distinguishes itself by embracing the Bolton brothers' chill attitude amid abject horror. They're Supergirl to TMNT's Superman. They lived a life before their Krypton exploded. They know what they lost, they lived what they lost, and they still choose to direct their jawesome chompers toward villainy. It's pure superhero comics. You might be thinking, what the Big Slammu are you talking about? Well, you just have to dig into this week's episode to appreciate the comparison truly. We're getting deep with Street Sharks this podcast, discussing community, reluctant heroism, and mob mentality with Stephanie Williams. Two weeks ago, our co-host Lisa didn't know a thing about Street Sharks, but as of today, she's INVESTED. The first four issues of Street Sharks are now available from IDW Publishing. The fifth issue, concluding the first arc, swims into comic shops on February 18th. Street Sharks is written by Stephanie Williams, illustrated by Ariel Medel, colored by Valentina Pinto, and lettered by Jeff Eckleberry. Also, follow Stephanie Williams on Bluesky, Instagram, and her website. This Week's Sponsors This February, Dave Stevens's The Rocketeer soars again in a brand-new story written by John Layman, the genius behind the foodie cannibal detective series Chew, and illustrated by Jacob Edgar, who drew Plastic Man: No More and has a very cool J. Bone/Darwyn Cooke style. The new series is called The Rocketeer: The Island. Our skybound hero, Cliff Secord, leads a dangerous search and rescue mission. Who's he looking for? None other than Amelia Earhart! The first issue crashes into comic book shops on February 25th, courtesy of IDW Publishing.

Is the so-called “18.6-year property crash” a hidden law of markets, or just a neat story that keeps good investors stuck on the sidelines? If you’ve been sitting on your hands because “the big crash is coming”, this episode is for you. In this solo deep-dive, Bushy pulls the 18.6-year cycle out of the internet echo chamber and puts it back where it belongs: as a lens, not a leash. Because while cycles do exist, markets don’t move like a metronome - and waiting for perfect timing has quietly cost many Australians a decade of compounding. In this episode, Bushy breaks down: Why the 18.6-year crash narrative is often clickbait - tidy, seductive, and dangerously freezing The real risk of half-right ideas: enough truth to feel safe, not enough to act safely Why “I’ll wait for the crash” usually fails - bottoms feel terrifying, credit tightens, and most people freeze Why property isn’t one market, but thousands of micro-markets moving at different speeds What cycles actually reflect (hint: credit, confidence, and liquidity - not dates on a calendar) How waiting for perfect timing can be more expensive than buying imperfectly well Why cycles should inform risk awareness, not fuel timing obsession The practical framework you’ll take away: Instead of betting your future on cycle dates, Bushy shows you how to focus on what you can actually control: Buffers and borrowing power A clear buy box Local, street-level market intelligence A long-term holding plan designed to survive uncertainty Plus, Bushy revisits the fundamentals that matter most - the 3 I’s and 3 P’s that create real growth gravity: Infrastructure, Industry diversity, Income growth Overlaid with Population, Policy, and Perception (sentiment) No crystal balls. No crash countdowns. Just calm, practical strategy.
This week, Chris and I dive deep into a question we've been getting a lot since our town hall event with Sarah Swain, Rebecca Matthews, and Elisa Kitz (which had almost 2,000 registrants!): Why are permanent tax shelters considered an asset class? I'll be honest—this was a concept that completely confused me until about 4-5 years ago. I grew up being taught that insurance is an expense, never an investment. But understanding how certain life insurance policies can provide liquidity, tax advantages, and long-term value has been game-changing for our family—both personally and professionally. In this episode, we break down: The difference between whole life and universal life insurance Why insurance should be the foundation of your financial house (not just the pretty stuff on top) How permanent policies build cash value you can borrow from tax-free Why getting insured young matters more than you think The connection between your health records and insurance premiums This might feel like a big topic to grasp, but stick with us. We're here to help you understand what you weren't taught growing up. Timestamps & Chapters [2:53 - 4:33] Why This Topic Matters Now Questions coming in about permanent tax shelters as an asset class How life insurance can offer protection AND build long-term value Jenn's journey from seeing insurance as an expense to understanding it as an investment [4:33 - 7:00] What Are Permanent Tax Shelters? Two types: Whole life and universal life insurance How they differ from term insurance (which is like "rent") Why these policies are structured differently for every person [7:00 - 10:20] Whole Life vs. Universal Life Whole life: Invested through the insurance company, pays dividends, safer/more conservative Universal life: Invested through markets, higher growth potential Companies we work with have been paying dividends for over 100 years [10:20 - 13:20] The Trust Factor Why people are hesitant to invest (lack of education, past bad experiences) Importance of transparency: where money goes, how returns work, paperwork to back it up Finding advisors who customize to YOUR needs, not just sell hot products [13:20 - 17:00] The Foundation Analogy Chris's building background: insurance is like the foundation of a house TFSAs, RRSPs, FHSAs are the "pretty stuff" on top If the foundation isn't solid, everything collapses when markets slip Different types of insurance: life, critical illness, disability [17:00 - 20:20] Why We Have Different Policies Individual needs vs. family goals Whole life for lending money back to yourself Universal life for stronger growth through market investments [20:20 - 23:40] Term vs. Permanent Insurance Explained Term insurance: Pay for protection for 10, 20, 30 years—when it expires, you're done (or renew at a much higher rate) Example: $75/month at age 30 becomes $500/month at age 65 Permanent insurance: Pay for a set period (often ~20 years), then you're covered for life [23:40 - 26:40] Health & Insurance Qualification Medical Insurance Bureau (MIB) has access to ALL your medical records Even minor things (like getting imaging for headaches) can flag you and increase premiums Jenn's story: Great health rating, lower premium Chris's story: One seizure from paintball at 21 flagged him for years [26:40 - 30:00] The Integrity Factor Insurance companies will test for things like nicotine in your hair if you claim to be a non-smoker Lying on applications can void your entire policy Smokers can requalify as non-smokers after 12 months nicotine-free and cut premiums in half [30:00 - 35:20] Why We're Talking About This Jenn's perspective: Health and wealth are connected Financial stress impacts health; lack of finances prevents getting health support The gap in what we weren't taught as adults, parents, business owners Teaching preparedness so people know what questions to ask [35:20 - 40:00] How Permanent Policies Build Cash Value Example: $100/month → $25 to insurance, $75 to investment Money grows tax-free inside the policy You can borrow from it with minimal or zero tax (depending on timing) Compare to RRSPs: 100% taxed at withdrawal at your marginal rate Insurance companies are great at saving from taxation; investment companies are great at making money—permanent policies combine both [40:00 - 43:00] The Self-Lending Strategy Build cash value you can borrow from tax-free or with greatly reduced tax Use for home repairs, helping kids, investments, etc. You can put in $300-500/month—insurance still only costs $25, rest goes to your investment fund [43:00 - 46:00] Inflation & Long-Term Planning Average Canadian couple needs $2.5-3 million to retire comfortably Inflation designed to be ~2.5% annually Example: Bag of milk was $2-3 twenty years ago, now $6-9, will be $20 in the future If you're only making 2.5% interest, you're just keeping up with buying power—not growing wealth Importance of reviewing statements together as a couple (even when uncomfortable) Key Highlights & Takeaways ✅ Insurance as Foundation, Not Expense: Permanent life insurance should be viewed as the foundation of your financial house—not a bill, but an investment that protects everything else you build on top. ✅ Two Types of Permanent Policies: Whole Life: Conservative, dividend-based, great for self-lending Universal Life: Market-invested, higher growth potential ✅ Tax Advantages: Money grows tax-free inside permanent policies, and you can borrow from your cash value with minimal or zero tax (unlike RRSPs, which are 100% taxed at withdrawal). ✅ Get Insured Young: Health changes, medical records, and age all impact premiums. The younger and healthier you are when you get insured, the better your rates—and they're locked in for life. ✅ The MIB Knows Everything: The Medical Insurance Bureau has access to all your medical records. Even minor health events (like imaging for headaches) can flag you and increase premiums. ✅ Inflation is Real: The average Canadian couple will need $2.5-3 million to retire comfortably. If your money is only growing at 2.5%, you're just keeping up with inflation—not building wealth. ✅ Self-Lending Strategy: Permanent policies allow you to build a "personal bank" you can borrow from for major expenses, investments, or helping family—without traditional loan approval processes. ✅ Transparency Matters: Any advisor should be able to explain exactly where your money is going, how returns work, and provide full paperwork. If they can't, walk away. ✅ Health & Wealth Are Connected: Financial stress impacts your health, and lack of finances prevents you from getting the health support you need.

Why Your "Perfect" Retirement Feels So Wrong You did everything right. Saved hard. Invested well. Ticked every box. So why does retirement feel… off? In this episode, I unpack the uncomfortable truth nobody talks about: retirement can feel psychologically harder than work, even when the money's sorted. Not because you failed, but because you were never given the emotional or mental roadmap for what comes next. We dig into the five hidden psychological traps that quietly derail retirement, and more importantly, what actually helps you navigate them. In this episode, we cover: Why losing your job title can feel like losing yourself What happens when a problem-solving brain suddenly has nothing meaningful to solve Why the "endless holiday" version of retirement wears thin fast The silent pressure to perform a perfect retirement, and why it's exhausting How a lifetime of saving can make spending feel terrifying, even when you're financially secure You'll also learn: How to rebuild your identity around who you are, not what you used to do Why your brain needs purpose, not just rest How to design a flexible routine that gives freedom without drift How to let go of guilt, busyness, and comparison And how to create real permission to spend without anxiety or second-guessing This episode isn't about fixing retirement. It's about understanding it, so you stop wondering "What's wrong with me?" and start building a life that actually fits. Free Resource If this episode hit a nerve, I've created a free one-page Purpose Finder guide to help you get clarity on what you want this next chapter to be about.

If you’re feeling torn between “buy anything, it’s a housing crisis” and “don’t touch property, it’s all a bubble”, this episode is for you. In this solo flight, Bushy Martin ditches crystal balls and headlines and lays out a clear, conservative property flight plan for 2026. Not predictions. Not hotspots. Just grounded thinking to help you make calm, confident decisions in a noisy, FOMO-fuelled market. Because 2026 isn’t shaping up as a perfect storm, or a clean boom. It’s more like a patchwork quilt. Some markets will sizzle. Some will simmer. Others will stagnate. And the difference won’t come down to luck - it’ll come down to planning, positioning, and behaviour. Bushy unpacks what the big data houses and forecasters are saying — SQM, Domain, the banks, PK Gupta, Hotspotting, Cotality and more — then translates it into plain-English insights you can actually use, without becoming someone else’s exit strategy in an overcooked “Instagram suburb”. You’ll hear why Australia’s long-talked-about housing shortage still looks like a blocked drain, with construction, planning and infrastructure bottlenecks meaning we’re not building enough homes in the right places. That ongoing scarcity continues to support prices, even as affordability bites. Bushy also explains why government demand schemes often make the affordable end of the market less affordable, pushing more buyers into the same narrow price bands, turning entry-level markets into musical chairs while doing little to fix supply. And while most forecasts point upward into 2026, Bushy is clear: You shouldn’t build your life on a forecast. Instead, this episode gives you a framework to stress-test opportunities as if: Interest rates don’t fall Lending tightens further Your income is less secure than you’d like If a deal still stacks up under those assumptions, it’s probably worth a closer look. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why 2026 looks more like a patchwork quilt than a national boom or bust How underbuilding, affordability pressure and policy settings are shaping the year ahead Why forecasts are best-case scenarios, not personal investment plans The difference between genuine opportunity and Pied Piper hotspots driven by late-stage FOMO The types of markets Bushy sees as long-term “keepers”, and the “Not Spots” smart investors should treat with caution How to use the 3 I’s (Infrastructure, Industry, Incomes) and 3 P’s (People, Property, Position) as X-ray goggles for any location Why behaviour, not the market, is the biggest risk for investors in 2026 How small, smart, consistent steps beat chasing the next shiny thing A simple 2026 investor playbook built around Freedom Numbers, BEAR Facts, buffers and boundaries This isn’t a prediction show. It’s a planning session. If you’re ready to move from FOMO to a clear flight plan, one your future self will thank you for, settle in and let’s get invested.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW In this energetic and motivational conversation, Hall of Fame speaker Dr. Willie Jolley joins Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass to discuss his new book, “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better.” The interview covers the difference between being rich and being wealthy, the mindsets required for long-term financial growth, and how individuals—no matter their background—can build generational wealth. Jolley also emphasizes discipline, humility, planning, multiple streams of income, overcoming setbacks, and the importance of insurance and protection of assets. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The interview aims to: 1. Introduce and promote Dr. Jolley’s new book “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better” and the teachings within it. 2. Educate listeners on the distinction between rich and wealthy Jolley wants audiences to understand wealth in generational, not short-term, terms. 3. Motivate individuals to shift their financial mindset From “working money” to “mailbox money.” 4. Empower entrepreneurs and families To adopt discipline, drop pride, and create multigenerational financial systems. 5. Share Jolley’s personal setback‑to‑success story To reinforce that anyone can grow wealth with the right principles. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Rich vs. Wealthy Being rich = high income, often tied to active labor (e.g., athlete contracts). Being wealthy = passive income, ownership, generational sustainability. A rich football player earns millions; the team owner earns billions and doesn’t have to “run up and down the field.” 2. The Five Money Mindsets Jolley explains five financial mindsets: One‑day mindset – living day to day. 30‑day mindset – fixed incomes/check-to-check living. One‑year mindset – annual thinking (raises, annual income). Decade mindset – typical for entertainers/athletes with multi‑year contracts. Generational mindset (Wealth Mindset) – building wealth to last multiple generations. Jolley’s goal: move people up just one level at a time. 3. Five Types of Wealth Jolley breaks wealth into five categories: Financial Wealth Health Wealth (“A sick person has one dream; a healthy person has a thousand.” – Les Brown) Relationship Wealth Reputational Wealth (Brand) Intellectual Capital Wealth (What you know and can charge for) 4. Discipline Is the Key Wealth requires: Living below your means Investing the difference Consistency Avoiding arrogance and ignorance 5. Pride Is an Enemy of Wealth Pride leads people to overspend to keep up appearances.Jolley argues that pride “kills wealth” and must be replaced with planning and humility. 6. The Three Legs of Wealth To build sustainable wealth, you need: Income Investment (letting money work for you) Insurance (life, health, car, disability, long-term care) 7. Multiple Streams of Income Jolley urges everyone to build at least two streams of income from: Stocks Bonds Real estate Crypto Collectibles Jewelry Art Content creation 8. Overcoming Setbacks Jolley details his own journey from unemployed nightclub singer to globally recognized motivational speaker.He reinforces that a setback is a setup for a comeback—the core message of his earlier bestselling book. 9. It’s Never Too Late to Start He cites examples of: A secretary who retired with $8M by investing small amounts over time Invested $12,000 at age 65 and grew it to $890,000 by age 72 NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Time & Opportunity “I have only just a minute… but it’s up to me to use it.” On Mindset “Wealth starts in your mind.” On Rich vs. Wealthy “Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.” On Pride “My pride was killing my wealth.” On Growth & Learning “If you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you.” [On Setbacks “A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.” On Starting Late “When is the best time to plant a tree? Eighty years ago. The second-best time? Today.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

These opening episodes set the tone for the series' blend of sweeping romance, sharp social commentary, and addictive drama. The premiere introduces the powerful Bridgerton family, led by eldest daughter Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor – Younger, Fair Play), as she enters the marriage market during London's competitive social season. Her fortunes take an unexpected turn when she forms a strategic alliance with the enigmatic Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings (Regé-Jean Page – Roots, The Gray Man), whose charm and emotional distance quickly make him the subject of intense fascination. Their fake courtship sparks both gossip and genuine attraction, becoming the emotional centerpiece of the show's early episodes.

You can have big goals, clear vision, and a rock-solid property plan — and still go absolutely nowhere. In this timeless Get Invested classic, Bushy Martin explains why sustainable success isn’t driven by knowing more… but by becoming different. Because in property — and in life — most people don’t fail from a lack of knowledge. They fail in the gap between what they want and what they repeatedly do. This episode is a deep dive into the invisible system that determines whether your goals turn into real-world results — or stay parked in “someday”. Bushy frames long-term success as the intersection of three non-negotiables: Self. Health. Wealth. Not as separate pursuits, but as a single operating system for execution. In this episode, Bushy unpacks: Why motivation fades and willpower eventually breaks How your thinking (Self) quietly shapes every financial outcome Why habits, rituals, and disciplines (Health) are the missing link for most investors How Wealth becomes the by-product of alignment — not the starting point The one lever that consistently converts vision into reality If you’ve ever set a goal, felt fired up for a few days, then slipped straight back into old patterns — this episode will land hard. It’s short, practical, and deeply relevant — whether you’re just starting out or already well into your investing journey. Because goals don’t fail. Systems do. And when the system is right, goals turn into gold. Take the next step with Bushy Personal Solutions Session Get clarity and personalised guidance: Book now Property W.E.A.L.T.H Program - live now!

Send us a textYOUTUBE LINK: https://youtu.be/O917sLJBe48We hope you enjoy the latest 2025 edition of the 40K Quiz of the Year, especially as it is the last episode of the Look Out, Sir! Warhammer Podcast Dan will be appearing on - at least for the foreseeable.DAN'S GOODBYE MESSAGEI won't lie; this is an odd message/statement to write. For the longest while, I honestly thought I'd be doing this till either Phil or I was dead. And though I'm grateful that both Phil and I aren't dead (at least not at the time of writing), concluding my time on the Look Out, Sir! Warhammer Podcast is a tough, but necessary, thing to do. As much as I've genuinely loved being part of something that (I hope) entertained and informed you for the past (nearly) eight years, I need to give myself the space and time to focus on other things.I'm grateful to every one of you who listened to, and by extension supported, this podcast. You honestly helped make it what it became through your enthusiasm and encouragement. Thank you; you've been awesome!Obviously, I can't do a goodbye message/statement without acknowledging the efforts of Phil. At its core, the Look Out, Sir! Warhammer Podcast is a product of people's shared enthusiasm for small toy soldiers, but it wouldn't be anything without the friendship element (and the many hours of accompanying work). Luckily for me, Phil is a great friend and a great doer of things, so it all worked out. Thank you, mate.Thank you also to all my other friends and contributors to Look Out, Sir! over the years: Quizmaster Richie and contestant Tim; former co-host Joe; one-time scorekeeper Adam; DKK emphasises Toke; the RFW Boyz Tom, Tom, Ross, and Phil; Skyserpent Paulie; and others.In conclusion, you've been great, and it's been great. Selfishly, I'm looking forward to listening back to all 230 of these episodes 30 years from now, when I'm an even older, most likely broken man living in a nursing home, dragging around an oxygen tank.

Small Business Sales & Strategy | How to Grow Sales, Sales Strategy, Christian Entrepreneur
In today's episode of How to Grow My Small Business, I'm joined by my friend Lissa Figgins from Redeem Her Time, and this conversation is for every woman who's ever said: “I don't have enough time.” Lisa calls herself an un-time management coach — because she believes time management isn't the solution… it's actually part of the problem. We talk about how hustle culture trains us to measure our worth by what we get done, why busyness becomes a signal to the people we love (“I'm not available”), and how God calls us to steward time — not white-knuckle it. This episode gets real. Lisa shares a powerful story about what her body was doing under chronic stress — and how it became a wake-up call that her “productivity” was actually costing her peace. We also talk about: ROTI: Return on Time Invested Why being a “business owner” can quietly turn into being a “busyness owner” The biblical difference between managing and stewarding The 3 time shifts most people miss Why multitasking is not your superpower The question that changes everything: “What is it time for?” If you've been craving clarity, margin, and a better way to grow your business without burning out… press play.

Two couples take the stage with a shared question—but very different financial realities: When is “enough” actually enough to move forward? Finn and Luna built a successful pet-sitting business and now sit on hundreds of thousands of dollars—but with no clear plan for investing, homeownership, or the future. Meanwhile, Monica and Antonio earn a strong income, are completely debt-free, and yet feel paralyzed by fear as they juggle parenting, aging parents, and the possibility of purchasing a larger home. In this live episode, Ramit digs into the tension between optimism and realism, abundance and anxiety. Together, they confront inherited money stories, decision paralysis, and what it really takes to turn income into confidence—so money stops being the thing that holds them back. In this episode we uncover: • Why having “hundreds of thousands of dollars” can still feel like total financial chaos without a system • The emotional whiplash of going from paycheck-to-paycheck to sudden abundance • How Finn and Luna's optimism vs. realism split shows up in every conversation about housing, investing, and location • Why crypto success without understanding risk creates false confidence • The real reason Luna pulled money out of investments and parked it in cash • How not knowing basic investing terms keeps progress stalled • Finn's fear that California homeownership is a ticking time bomb • Monica and Antonio's decision paralysis despite high income and zero debt • How generational trauma, bankruptcies, and lost homes shaped Monica's daily money anxiety • Why Antonio believes earning more is the solution • The financial and emotional toll of supporting aging parents while raising young children • The hidden cost of being “responsible for everyone” and never prioritizing your own future • The shift from reacting emotionally to money toward making deliberate, shared financial decisions • What changes when money stops being mysterious Chapters: (00:00:00) “I'm a dreamer”—and he just wants a real plan (00:25:32) What happens when the optimizer stops optimizing at home? (00:33:01) “They gave up everything for us” (00:46:33) “We make great money—but it doesn't feel like enough” (00:57:52) “I set the bar so high I can never win” (01:04:37) Where are they now?

Niels and Cem reflect on a year marked by concentration, confidence, and growing structural fragility beneath calm markets. They examine extreme positioning, record low cash levels, and the quiet dominance of reflexive flows over fundamentals. Cem challenges common readings of volatility, explains where real fear hides in options markets, and outlines why tail exposure becomes critical late in cycles. The discussion broadens into portfolio construction, questioning the legacy of 60/40 investing and the illusion of diversification built during falling-rate decades. Grounded in history, market structure, and political cycles, this conversation offers a disciplined framework for navigating regimes where leverage, policy, and inequality quietly redefine risk.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Cem on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Introduction to the Systematic Investor Series00:49 - Geopolitical tensions beneath the surface of markets02:07 - Extreme bullish sentiment and record low cash levels04:12 - Margin use, positioning, and why this setup is fragile06:07 - Why the VIX fails as a true fear indicator11:48 - Buffett's concentration and risk management through quality16:27 - Leverage, Sharpe ratios, and misunderstood diversification21:02 - Trend following performance and late year positioning23:48 - Positioning, reflexivity, and market microstructure28:25 - Volatility traps and convexity before stress events31:06...
