#306. Just three middle class guys sharing their mid-life crisis together! Kory starts by eating his way through it as he had some catching up to do. Dillon and Kendall got started on their favorite dishes last week. Then we talk about maybe who we're becoming as we engage with customer service in our middle age.

Together, they break down common traps like underpricing, overleveraging debt, and failing to track key metrics like gross margin and revenue per man hour.

I'm Back! Welcome to Financial Revelations! A huge thank-you to everyone who came out to the signing for The Sin of Retirement! If you couldn't make it, don't worry—you can still order your copy. The book is now available in hardcover, ebook, and Audible. Visit www.sinofretirement.com for details. Market Update Wednesday marked a big shift in Federal Reserve policy—the start of rate cuts. Chair Powell announced a 25 basis point reduction, and I expect cuts to continue until his term ends in May. My take? The Fed was late. They should have begun cutting back in April. Unfortunately, politics have crept into monetary policy, and Powell doesn't want to leave office remembered as the next Arthur Burns. Looking ahead, I believe we'll see 30-year mortgage rates drop to 5% or below by April/May 2026. That will spark refinancing activity and push markets upward. Listener Questions This week, a listener asked: When should I contribute to a Roth versus a tax-deferred account? What's the best strategy for retiring early? Great questions! Keep them coming.

Fed Meeting Recap Last week's Fed meeting held no surprises—Chairman Powell kept rates unchanged. That said, I still believe we'll see three rate cuts before the end of the year. To Powell's credit, the data he had was questionable. The Bureau of Labor Statistics revised previous jobless claims and economic data, which changed the outlook considerably. The updated numbers show a weakening economy, declining inflation, and falling energy costs. And as I always say—everything starts with energy prices. The Fed, as usual, is late to the game.

This question sparked an illuminating conversation about the distractions that pull us away from our true purpose and the power of intentionally choosing what deserves our attention.The journey begins with Kory sharing a transformative moment during a recent band performance when equipment failure forced the musicians to rely solely on their raw talent. What could have been a disaster became a catalyst for growth, creating one of their most authentic and energizing performances. This experience perfectly illustrates how unexpected challenges can reconnect us with our core purpose when we remain open to the moment rather than fixated on distractions.We dive deep into the concept of FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) and how it manifests in our lives.  What happens when we're so busy watching what everyone else is doing that we miss our own calling? Through personal stories and reflections, we explore the freedom that comes from embracing JOMO (Joy Of Missing Out) instead.As you listen, we'd like to invite you to consider: What distractions might you intentionally miss out on this week? What could you say "yes" to instead? We would like to let you know that your purpose is worthy of protection, and your time is too valuable to trade for what merely distracts.Support the showhttps://linktr.ee/genthebuilder
