The stock market crashes about once every three years—at least a 20% drop. Most investors panic and sell. But if you understood why markets always recover, you'd do the opposite. Brian Feroldi reveals three mechanical forces that guarantee long-term market resilience, transforming market crashes from terrifying events into predictable opportunities. Key Topics Discussed Introduction to Market Resilience (00:00:00) Brad Barrett introduces the concept of understanding market recovery through fundamental mechanics rather than accepting it on faith. Understanding Market Crashes (00:05:00) Brian explains crash frequency: 10% drops every eleven months, 15% every two years, 20% every three years, 30% once a decade, and 40%+ drops two to three times per century. Force #1: Stocks Follow Earnings (00:10:00) The first fundamental force—stock prices track corporate earnings over time. Brian introduces the man-and-dog analogy: the man (profits) walks steadily uphill while the dog (prices) runs wild on an elastic leash. Watch the man, not the dog. Force #2: Earnings Always Recover (00:25:00) Brian breaks down the five-phase economic recovery process: cost-cutting, cleansing, government intervention, innovation, and emergence. The Forest Fire Analogy (00:32:00) Economic downturns function like forest fires—clearing deadwood, eliminating weak competitors, and creating optimal conditions for new growth. The COVID pandemic demonstrated this: remote work jumped from under 10% to over 90% in four months. Force #3: Profits Rise Over Time (00:48:00) Five systematic drivers cause profits to rise: productivity gains, inflation, innovation, geographic expansion, and population growth. These forces ensure long-term upward trajectory despite temporary setbacks. Investor Psychology and Closing Thoughts (00:55:00) Discussion about investor behavior during crashes and the importance of saving this episode for future market downturns when emotional fortitude matters most. Notable Quotes "Stocks follow earnings. As go the earnings of a company or an index, also goes the price or the market value of that same index." — Brian Feroldi "The best time to buy is at the period of maximum pessimism. And the period of maximum pessimism is precisely when you absolutely do not want to buy." — Brian Feroldi "Ninety percent of good investing is how you behave in the 10% of time that things are not going well." — Brian Feroldi "Think of the man walking a dog on an elastic leash. The man represents profits, the dog represents stock prices. Watch the man, not the dog." — Brian Feroldi "Innovation accelerates when times are tough. Necessity is the mother of invention." — Brad Barrett and Brian Feroldi Key Takeaways Google "S&P 500 earnings" and study the 100-year chart showing earnings rather than just stock prices to see the steady upward march of the "man" Save this episode in your investor policy statement to re-listen during the next market crash when you need psychological reinforcement Set up automatic dollar-cost averaging contributions to retirement accounts and commit to never stopping them during downturns Review your asset allocation if you're within 10 years of financial independence to ensure appropriate risk levels and cash cushions Markets typically bottom when news is worst because prices predict earnings recovery 6-9 months ahead Resources and Links Why Does the Stock Market Go Up? by Brian Feroldi The Simple Path to Wealth by JL Collins JL Collins Guided Meditation for Market Drops Afford Anything Podcast with Paula Pant Camp FI Brian Feroldi on YouTube Brian Feroldi on Twitter/X Brian Feroldi on Instagram Brian Feroldi on Threads

Robinhood just launched agentic trading -- an AI that can execute stock trades and purchases on your behalf using criteria you set in advance. There's also a new agentic credit card that can shop for you automatically. Joe and Anna dig into why handing execution over to a machine is fundamentally different from using AI as a thinking partner -- and why the people most excited about AI agents for their money are often the same people who would never trust a human advisor with it.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy the psychology of trusting AI with money while distrusting human advisors doesn't hold up -- and what's actually driving itThe difference between using AI to expand your thinking and using it to execute decisions -- and why only one of those is dangerousHow AI agents eliminate the friction that protects you from your own worst financial impulses -- and why that's exactly how consumer debt gets worseJoe's four-question framework for knowing when an AI agent is actually helping versus when it's just automating overspendingWhy Doug's experience building computer systems made him more skeptical of AI agents, not less -- and what changedThe debt sequencer framework from OG and Anna: how to rank every debt by interest rate, add an honest emotional layer, and decide where the next dollar actually goesWhy the debt snowball versus avalanche debate has a cleaner answer than most people think -- and when the math genuinely doesn't matterThe one thing that happens to almost every client's bonus money if they don't have a pre-decided allocation plan -- and how to fix it before the money arrivesWhy paying off a 3% mortgage might be the right call even when the spreadsheet says it isn't -- and the taxes-and-insurance math that makes the house payment conversation more complicated than it looksWhy the Stacking Benjamins guides now have an AI component that only draws from the guide itself -- and why it tells you when it doesn't know somethingWhy This Matters NowEvery time a company makes it easier to spend or trade without thinking, it's not because they want you to make better decisions. Understanding where AI genuinely helps -- thinking, organizing, comparing -- versus where it hurts -- executing, spending, trading -- is one of the most important financial literacy questions of the next decade.From the BasementJoe and Anna dig into Robinhood's new agentic trading and credit card features and work out where the line between useful and dangerous actually sits. OG and Anna follow with the debt sequencer -- a framework for ranking every debt you have and deciding where the next dollar goes, with room for both math and emotion. Doug arrives with kite-flying trivia that connects to one of the most famous names in American history. Anna is back without OG, which Doug predicts will produce the highest ratings in show history.Resources MentionedCNBC -- "Your AI agent can now trade for you on Robinhood and buy stuff with your credit card, too"; linked at stackingbenjamins.comThe College Investor with Robert Farrington -- referenced for prior deep dive on AI financial advice accuracyStacking Benjamins Guides -- college planning, tax planning, and HR benefits guides with new AI component; stackingbenjamins.com/guidesStacking Benjamins Basics Guide -- season one and season two workbooks free at stackingbenjamins.com/basicsguideStacking Benjamins Scorecard -- stackingbenjamins.com/scorecardStacking Benjamins Newsletter (The 201) -- stackingbenjamins.com/201Field Kit Finance -- fieldkitfinance.comStacking Benjamins BAD Groups -- stackingbenjamins.com/badStacking Benjamins Community -- stackingbenjamins.com/basementSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

She shows that lasting prosperity depends not just on earning more, but on developing the mindset and systems needed to protect and sustain it. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.christineluken.com/more-money-means-more-responsibility/ Quotes to ponder: "More money means more responsibility, not just more fun. If you want to grow and keep your wealth, it comes with more responsibility. They're a package deal!" "Every time we ascend to new levels of success, income, or net worth, we're faced with new fears and money blocks. As the saying goes, “New level, new devil!”" "With great power (and wealth!) comes great responsibility. Those who embrace it will build an empire and create a legacy."

Robert and Austin talked about three credit myths holding people back: you have to be rich to have great credit, carrying a balance helps your credit score, and closing old credit cards is a smart play. ---
Patrick Farrell, co-founder of Keystone Investing, shares how God reshaped his understanding of success, stewardship, and surrender through entrepreneurship, investing, and community. After growing up in a generous household and later chasing performance and achievement, Patrick encountered Jesus in high school and eventually rediscovered a deeper, more relational faith while working at a cybersecurity startup. That season of spiritual renewal planted the seeds for Keystone Investing, a faith-driven investing community helping investors align their capital with Kingdom values. In this conversation, Patrick explains how Keystone creates spaces where investors and founders can pursue both financial excellence and meaningful impact without sacrificing relationships or spiritual formation. He reflects on the dangers of performance-driven stewardship, the importance of wise and thoughtful risk-taking, and why generosity and investing both require surrender to God's lead. Along the way, he offers practical wisdom for discerning where God may be leading your resources and how community can help shape faithful decision-making. Listen to discover how surrendering control of your finances can open the door to deeper joy, discernment, and Kingdom impact. Major Topics Include: Surrendering control of financial stewardship Investing through relationships, not transactions Breaking performance-driven identity patterns Aligning capital with Kingdom convictions Building community around faith-driven investing Pursuing profit alongside Kingdom impact Discerning risk through intimacy with God Practicing generosity from abundance, not fear Integrating faith into business leadership Cultivating wise stewardship through spiritual formation QUOTES TO REMEMBER “The first step on the stewardship journey is recognizing that all of your capital is God's. It all belongs to Him.” “If you start there in that position of surrender, I'm so confident that God will do the rest.” “This entire process of faith-driven investing is all about growing in intimacy with the Lord.” “You can make a ton of money, you can have a ton of impact, but if you're not transformed and the people around you aren't transformed, then that falls short of what I think God's goal was.” “We want to find excellent values-aligned founders building intentional mission-driven businesses that are heading toward sustainability and profitability and growth and scale.” “Faith-driven investing can be excellent. It can be excellent for people, excellent for impact, and excellent financially.” “You don't necessarily have to sacrifice returns in order to see Kingdom impact.” “God is using investing to work on investors.” “God cares about relationships more than really anything else.” “Anything that we set up from a business perspective that deprioritizes relationship tends to fall victim to our sinful nature.” “There are few people within a founder's life that have more access to them than their investors.” “Most of the time, in my experience, God's going to push us into more and greater risk to help us rely on Him.” “The steward buried his talent because he was worried about retribution. And the Master is upset that the steward thought of Him that way.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Keystone Investing Mark Batterson, Pastor and Author (see our past interview here) Praxis (see our interview with Cofounder Josh Kwan) Bill and Dana Wichterman, Givers and Impact Investors (see our past interview here) Faith Driven Entrepreneur Faith Driven Investor Eventide Sovereigns Capital BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Deuteronomy 6:12 | Only by the Grace of God then take care lest you forget the Lord, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. Matthew 25:14–30 | Parable of the Talents James 2:17 | Faith Without Works So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. TAKE A STEP DEEPER On the Finish Line podcast, we are all about stories, seeing how God draws us into generosity over a lifetime. But sometimes these stories can leave us thinking, “What's that next step look like for me?” That's exactly why we've launched a whole new podcast called Applied Generosity which explores the full landscape of the generous life across 7 different dimensions of generosity. Applied Generosity helps make sense of the hundreds of stories we've shared on the Finish Line Podcast to help you find that best next step. If you've been inspired by these stories and want to take things to the next level, check out Applied Generosity anywhere you listen to podcasts or at appliedgenerosity.com.

In this episode Brian and Jeff discuss why women are becoming one of the most important forces in the future of wealth, and why financial confidence matters just as much as financial assets.
This week, Dave Spano and Dr. Brian Jacobsen break down rising geopolitical tension, spotlighted by developments in Iran, alongside a fresh batch of economic data shaping today's market narrative. Inflation is still running hot as consumer confidence slips and small business optimism cools, even while housing and trade offer a few bright spots. They also take a closer look at the uptick in IPO activity, from AI heavyweight OpenAI to more traditional companies, and what it may reveal about investor sentiment, plus practical conversations on tax filing strategies for couples and why more Americans are tapping into their 401(k)s.

Episode 3593: Kumiko of The Budget Mom explains why entering retirement with debt can put serious pressure on a fixed income and reduce the freedom you've worked hard to achieve. She highlights the importance of eliminating unsecured debt, student loans, and mortgage debt before retirement, while offering practical strategies to reduce interest costs, accelerate repayment, and protect long-term financial security. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.thebudgetmom.com/3-debts-you-should-eliminate-before-retirement/ Quotes to ponder: "If you are living with a fixed retirement income, you might not be able to afford to make the extra payments on the money owed." "I would love to help my son pay for college, but I won't sacrifice my own retirement to do so" "If you can pay off your mortgage before retirement, you can significantly decrease your housing costs, eliminate your biggest expense, and you can make your savings last much longer."

SPONSORED SHOW, Request your free requester kit at https://GuildhallWealth.com/Rebel | Are falling metals prices, Fed pressure, and Canada's economic cracks setting up the next major move in gold and silver? On this episode of The Real Money Show, presented by Guildhall Wealth, Jeremy Wiseman and Jerry Correia make the case that today's pullback in precious metals isn't the end of the bull run — it's the setup for the next one. Silver below $70. Gold near $4,000. Sounds like bad news. But is it really a hidden buying opportunity? The hosts break down three forces quietly building beneath the surface: political chaos driving safe-haven demand, an industrial silver shortage hiding in plain sight, and a Federal Reserve so trapped it may have no choice but to cut rates — and ignite the next metals rally. They also connect the dots on Canada's deepening economic crisis, the only G7 nation in recession and still unable to strike a tariff deal, as entrepreneurs and capital quietly head for the exits. Physical gold and silver may be the last hedge ordinary Canadians can actually control.

It's the halfway point of 2026. Do you know if your retirement plan is on track? In this episode of Safer Retirement Radio, Brian Decker and Arrin Wray of Decker Retirement Planning walk through their mid-year review process: what to check, what to question, and where the common blind spots are. What this episode covers: • The mid-year checklist: portfolio allocation, spending versus budget, and whether your 401(k), IRA, Roth, and HSA contributions are still on pace • Why set-percentage withdrawal rules like the 4% approach can fall short in a flat market cycle, and how Decker structures income across emergency cash, principal-protected accounts, and a separate risk bucket • Brian's case against traditional quarterly rebalancing, and how relative strength, sector rotation, and momentum strategies shape what Decker clients own right now • What history shows about market valuations above 30 times trailing earnings, and the two ways portfolios have historically generated returns in flat market cycles • The disconnect between record stock prices and a squeezed economy: layoffs, flat unemployment, and why half the country feels it differently than the other half • The mindset shift from saving to spending, including how retirees can think about emergency cash and permission to actually use the money they spent decades building If you're within a few years of retirement, or already there, this episode lays out the questions worth asking before the second half of the year.

The Tom Dupree Show | Podcast Show Notes The Nike Cautionary Tale: What Happens When Leadership Loses Touch With Its Customers The Tom Dupree Show | Dupree Financial Group | dupreefinancial.com | 859-233-0400 Episode Description Nike spent decades building one of the most recognized brands on the planet — the Swoosh, the Air Jordan, high-heat basketball shoes that consumers lined up for, and a presence in every major sporting goods retailer in the world. Then, in 2020, the company handed its future to a CEO who believed physical retail was a dying model, and what followed became a study in how quickly a great company can lose its way. Tom Dupree and analyst Michael Dawahare walk through the full arc of Nike’s rise and decline — from its origins in performance athletics to a stock that traded at $180 and has since fallen to around $44. They examine the strategic decisions that caused the damage, the board failures that let it compound, and what retirement investors can take directly from the story. “You cannot put your own lenses on the lenses of your customer — you have to ask how they see the world, not how you see it.” Topics Covered • How Nike’s origins in performance athletics shaped the brand — and why that foundation was eventually abandoned • The 2020 appointment of CEO John Donahoe and the pivot toward a direct-to-consumer distribution model • Why walking away from wholesale partners like Foot Locker and specialty running stores was a catastrophic miscalculation • How competitors — HOKA, On Cloud, New Balance, ASICS, and Brooks — filled the shelf space Nike gave away • The role of groupthink and board failure in allowing the strategy to continue long after warning signs appeared • The Jordan Brand challenge: what happens when a generational endorsement ages out with no succession plan • Nike’s attempted course correction, the arrival of new CEO Elliott Hill, and why recovery is proving harder than expected • The parallel between Nike’s story and retirement portfolio management: proven strategy, fundamentals, and the danger of chasing new models Key Takeaways • Know what your portfolio is actually built on. The moment Nike shifted focus from technical performance products, competitors filled the gap. The same risk applies when an investment strategy drifts from its core principles. • Never surrender your shelf space. Giving up distribution — or abandoning a proven income strategy during volatility — is almost impossible to reverse. Re-entry is rarely seamless. • Leadership bias is one of the most expensive mistakes in business. Donahoe was an outstanding digital executive who ran a physical consumer company through a digital lens. Bias in a CEO — or a portfolio manager — costs real money. • Boards exist to prevent catastrophic decisions. Most don’t. Nike’s board approved a strategy that effectively fired its wholesale customer base. Institutional oversight is only as good as the willingness to ask uncomfortable questions. • Consumer loyalty, once transferred, is remarkably sticky. Runners who switched to HOKA or On Cloud did not come back. When a customer finds something they prefer, you may have lost them for good. • Recovery takes far longer than the damage itself. Nearly two years into Elliott Hill’s tenure, Nike still cannot get traction. A few years of bad decisions can take a decade to undo — in business and in retirement portfolios. • Proven strategies deserve skepticism about replacement, not abandonment. When a new model sounds compelling, always ask: What is the process? Has it been tested? And who benefits when you believe in it? About The Tom Dupree Show The Tom Dupree Show is hosted by Tom Dupree, founder of Dupree Financial Group and a 47-year veteran of the investment business.

Chief Asia Economist Chetan Ahya joins Head of India Research and Chief India Equity Strategist Ridham Desai to break down India's macro outlook, capital flows and sector opportunities.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Chetan Ahya: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Chetan Ahya, Morgan Stanley's Chief Asia Economist.Ridham Desai: And I'm Ridham Desai, Morgan Stanley's Head of India Research and Chief India Equity Strategist.Chetan Ahya: Today, the biggest takeaways from our India Investment Forum in Mumbai. From the shifting outlook for India's markets and flows to the sectors driving the next phase of corporate earnings and CapEx.It's Friday, June 12th at 7PM in Hong Kong.Ridham Desai: And 4:30PM in Mumbai.Chetan Ahya: Ridham, the Morgan Stanley's India Investment Forum took place in Mumbai last week, and I was there with you. These events are a great opportunity to speak with investors who come across from the globe to attend. Now that we have had a few days to process the conversations, what stood out to you? What was the biggest shift in investor sentiment that you picked on?Ridham Desai: So, Chetan, I think it's been the case of a continuing story about India. Domestic investors look that they are bullish, and foreign investors continue to stay rather cautious on the Indian markets. We could see that in the overall attendance. In contrast, I think domestic investors were looking for the next stock that they wanted to buy. They were seeking opportunities, and there was a lot of interest in meeting companies.Before we get into markets, let me turn back to you from a macro side. India's growth story remains strong, but relative growth appears to be cooling. This is in contrast to markets like Japan, Taiwan, Korea, and the US. How should investors think about India's macro positioning in that context?Chetan Ahya: So, Ridham, when I look at the macro data in India, they're all indicating a meaningful upside in the growth trend. So I'll just cite two key cyclically sensitive macro data points. One is the banking system credit growth, and number two is the auto sales, particularly the passenger vehicle. So bank credit growth is growing as of the last biweekly data point that we got. It's growing at seventeen point seven percent year-on-year, and car sales are growing at twenty-seven percent in the month of May.But as you were mentioning earlier, the relative growth opportunity is a challenge for India and to just share the numbers on the earnings growth for the first quarter that we saw across the region. So we saw Korea's earnings growth at one hundred and seventy percent. We saw Taiwan's earnings growth at forty-eight percent year on year. Japan at thirty-three percent. The US has seen a growth of about twenty-seven percent year on year.So in that context, when India is reporting thirteen percent growth, it's becoming a challenge for investors to look for opportunities in India relative to other markets. Either they are more focused on the other markets than India. So let me come back to you, Ridham. Staying with the investment implications, India projects stable valuations and strong corporate earnings, but its relative growth advantage has narrowed. How should investors reconcile this contradiction?Ridham Desai: If I go back thirty-five years, as long as we have the MSCI index series, and as far as I have been in this industry, this is the lowest relative multiple that India has traded at. And indeed, growth last year was weak. But if you see QOQ, we have started to accelerate. The broad market earnings growth trajectory has shown a doubling in the quarter that ended March over the quarter that ended December.But it underscores the point you made about the relative growth complex. It's clearly not in India's favor. And a lot of the capital in the world is short-term oriented, and it cares for what growth is gonna come in the next quarter or two. And that's the state of the market right now.However, what I would say is that equities is a quintessential long-duration asset class. In the long run, what matters is terminal growth. I don't really think India's terminal growth has moved much. It remains far superior to a lot of other countries around the world. And therefore, I think this does present itself as a great opportunity for a long-term investor while the markets are digesting this relative growth disadvantage that India seems to have over the next, say, three or four quarters.Chetan Ahya: And Ridham, another theme from the forum was policy action to attract capital. Policymakers announced a number of measures right as our conference ended and they aimed to withdraw withholding tax on debt investors, also providing banks with an incentive to take up more dollar borrowing. How central are these measures to sustaining foreign inflows into Indian markets?Ridham Desai: I think the measures taken by policymakers are very important, probably amongst the most important policy actions this year. The removal of taxation on debt investors will make a difference. The provision for hedging to external commercial borrowings as well as to foreign currency deposits will make a difference.It should boost flows into India over the next twelve months. That said, these measures may not help the equity flows because the equity flows, I think, are going to depend on the relative growth situation. Now, there's only that much India can do to lift its growth. It may accelerate to the high teens. So growth elsewhere needs to decelerate for equity investors to return. Or India needs to see the start of a major IPO cycle because in primary issuances, foreigners do come to buy, and that may change the net picture on FBI flows in the equity markets.But as far as the debt markets are concerned, I think the measures taken last week are going to prove to be quite potent, and India should see the benefits accruing over the next few weeks and months.Chetan, from your perspective, how important is the policy backdrop right now in determining whether India can keep attracting long-term global capital despite more competitive returns elsewhere in the short run?Chetan Ahya: So Ridham, I think the key focus for the policymakers had been with these measures to boost short-term capital inflows to stabilize the currency. There has been a balance of payment deficit. So from that perspective, the short-term capital inflow augmentation effort as you mentioned, has been the correct move. But from the long-term perspective, we think that the government needs to boost competitiveness of the Indian manufacturing. Because in the context in which AI could affect India's services exports, there is a need to augment more export receipts from the manufacturing sector. At the same time, if they improve the competitiveness of the manufacturing sector, it will help India to attract more capital inflows from long-term investors for the purpose of FDI.And the good news is that the government is on it. They are taking a number of measures to boost that competitiveness in the manufacturing. But we think that there is more action needed and hopefully in the intention to improve the balance of payment dynamics and exports from manufacturing sector, we will see more actions from the government in the coming months.Ridham Desai: Chetan, you've also written extensively about the structural capital spending cycle in Asia and India. Can you walk us through the key details here, especially in the Indian context?Chetan Ahya: I think the key story that we are observing, it's sort of more or less global, but definitely very clearly seen in Asia, that there seems to be a super cycle for CapEx as well as industrial activity. This CapEx cycle is effectively driven by spending in four key sectors, and that is AI and AI-related digital infrastructure, energy, defense, and industrial onshoring-related CapEx.Now, as far as India is concerned, we are seeing investments in all the four segments that I just mentioned. In fact, it's seeing a significant amount of activity in the space of energy. And, similarly, we are seeing a lot of policy measures, I mentioned earlier, in terms of boosting manufacturing competitiveness.But at the heart of it is government's effort to onshore industrial supply chain. So India's CapEx has also inflected higher. Having said that, the difference between India and, let's say, North Asia, which is Korea, Taiwan, Japan and China, is that they are also a big player in the export market for capital goods when there is global CapEx cycle upswing happening. Nevertheless, India will see the benefit of this CapEx cycle in terms of its own growth push, as well as improvement in productivity.So Ridham, how would you think about the sectoral opportunity within the Indian markets?Ridham Desai: We see a lot of interest in some of these sectors which you mentioned. But actually, I would like to start off with financials. I see the banks in a very sweet spot. Balance sheets are in pristine condition. The interest rate cycle has troughed, which means margins for the banks have also bottomed and credit growth is finally accelerating. If this CapEx cycle unfolds like the way you are describing it, I think financials will stand to gain the most.And interestingly, the valuations are quite good, both on an absolute as well as on a relative basis. Also, of course, investors can go directly into those sectors which are doing this capital spend. Energy to start with, semiconductors, fertilizers, data centers and aerospace.The only thing to note here is that not everywhere are the valuations attractive enough because in some cases the market has recognized the coming growth cycle and has started to price that in. So we have to be careful about the valuations. But I think financials and industrials are clearly great opportunities in the context of this CapEx recovery that India is likely to see in the coming five years.Chetan Ahya: And additionally, the most requested companies at the summit, Ridham, were consumer sector companies. What do you think investors are looking for at this sector over others?Ridham Desai: So, Chetan, I think from a structural perspective, the Indian consumer is quite clearly the best place to be. In fact, I would say that it's the leverage that India enjoys over the rest of the world.The one point five billion people in this country are split across, say, a hundred and fifty cohorts of ten million each, and each of these cohorts have got different consumption opportunities. So depending on what product or service you're offering to your consumers, there's a market in India, and which in nominal terms is growing between ten and fifteen percent.As we know, last year India accounted for something around seventeen or eighteen percent of global GDP growth, which means depending again on what you are selling to your consumer, India could be between ten and hundred percent of your revenue growth. So India's consumer is something that hardly anybody can avoid.So in summary, Chetan, when I look at it from an investment opportunity, financials, industrials, and consumption, not necessarily in that particular order, are probably the best places for investors to look at. However, IT services, I think could be the dark horse. It's a sector right now which is disrupted or potentially disrupted by AI, and there's a lot of confusion there.But I think as the dust settles on this, it may emerge as one of the most interesting areas for investors to look at. So there's a lot of stuff in India happening right now. I think growth is accelerating. Valuations are looking quite interesting. In fact, the best that they've been in many, many years.Trading performance suggests that investors are not positioned at all. And if things start looking up, then India could be a very good market in the coming twelve months.Chetan Ahya: Ridham, thanks for taking the time to talk.Ridham Desai: Great speaking with you, ChetanChetan Ahya: And thanks for listening.

The first time I ever heard the word tithing, I watched a guest preacher publicly shame two guys at the altar of a small Florida church for not doing it consistently. They walked back to their seats with their heads down. I never forgot it. Linda has a different shame story — quiet, private, ten years long, all over a single tithe she felt led to give to friends going on a mission trip instead of her local church. Two completely different shame stories, same root system. Both deadly to generosity. In this episode, we finally do the conversation we've sidestepped for almost two decades. We get into the difference between condemnation and conviction, why we treat tithing the same way we treat Sabbath, and the moment we corrected our giving and got a raise the very next day that exactly covered the gap. This is not a shame episode. It's not a license episode either. It's where we've actually landed. And If you enjoyed this, we'd love to send you a free copy of our book — you just cover shipping.

WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE Here's a little of what we cover in this episode: The altar-shaming Bob watched as a brand-new Christian (and what it did to his view of giving) The 10-year guilt cycle Linda carried over a single tithe she gave to the "wrong" place Why condemnation comes from the enemy and conviction comes from God (and how to tell which is which) The Sabbath analogy that finally helped us land somewhere honest Why both shame and license are wrong (and what 2 Corinthians 9:7 actually says) Where to start if 10% feels impossible right now BIBLE VERSES MENTIONED Matthew 7 (referenced — "if your eye causes you to sin") Genesis 14 (Abraham and Melchizedek, referenced) Genesis 22 (Abraham, "God will provide" / Jehovah Jireh) 2 Corinthians 8-9 (referenced as a giving framework) 2 Corinthians 9:7 Galatians 3:13 (referenced — "redeemed from the curse of the law") John 8 (the woman caught in adultery, referenced) Luke 19 (Zacchaeus, referenced) Hebrews (Jesus as high priest in the order of Melchizedek, referenced) RESOURCES MENTIONED True Financial Freedom (church curriculum) → seedtime.com/true DISCLAIMER Obligatory legal disclaimer: I'm a financial educator, not your financial advisor, investment advisor, tax pro, or lawyer.

On the board: Brendan Sorsby's prospects at Texas Tech, the SEC's return to glory, the return of Gary Patterson, and a new Group of Six team crashing the playoff party. Plus, the Sarks debate whether anyone other than Miami is worth backing in the ACC, whether Notre Dame is being set up as the sport’s most polished strength-of-schedule mirage, and which long-shot ideas still deserve emotional capital before the season begins.
