Podcasts about leaving money

Taxes can quietly shape some of the biggest financial decisions you'll ever make — from choosing how to take a pension to deciding how to leave money to your heirs. On this week's Money Matters, Scott and Pat take calls from listeners working through those exact issues. One caller is weighing a pension lump sum against monthly payments, and the tax consequences of that decision become central to the conversation. The guys also discuss how asset location affects tax efficiency, why different accounts are taxed differently, and how thoughtful planning can help reduce unnecessary taxes over time. They even explore ways to structure inheritances that protect beneficiaries while keeping taxes in mind.

Most high-income earners assume their tax situation is handled once they hire a CPA and start filing. The return gets done, nothing breaks, and it's easy to believe that if something mattered, it would already be happening. But that assumption quietly costs people money. Not because they're reckless or aggressive, but because compliance gets mistaken for strategy, and basic leverage never gets activated. Zach Newberry works with business owners and real estate investors who earn well, and still find themselves on the wrong side of the tax game. What he sees over and over isn't missed loopholes or exotic strategies.  It's small, obvious decisions that never get made: spending a few thousand dollars to unlock meaningful capital, revisiting structures that no longer fit, and using rules that already apply but are never deployed. His perspective reframes taxes as a capital allocation problem, not a paperwork exercise. Instead of focusing on what gets filed, he looks at what gets converted, dollars that would disappear versus dollars that stay in play for the next investment. In this episode, we talk about why small, inconvenient costs often unlock real leverage, where high earners miss money long before "strategy" even starts, and how rules like the Augusta Rule fit into real life when you understand how to use them. About the Guest  Zachary Newberry is a CPA, tax planner, and entrepreneur who works primarily with business owners and real estate investors. His practice focuses on helping clients move beyond basic tax compliance and use the tax code intentionally — connecting entity structure, real estate, income timing, and planning decisions in a way that supports long-term wealth building. He works with real estate investors, real estate-centric businesses, small to mid-sized companies, and high-income individuals. In addition to tax preparation, Zach provides ongoing tax planning and advisory services, accounting and bookkeeping oversight, and strategic consulting for clients who want their tax decisions to function as part of their broader financial and investment strategy — not just something that gets filed once a year.    Email Address - zach@newberrycpa.com Instagram - @newberrycpa Facebook Business Page - https://www.facebook.com/zachnewberrycpa Booking Link - https://go.oncehub.com/ZachNewberry   About Your Host From pro-snowboarder to money mogul, Chris Naugle has dedicated his life to being America's #1 Money Mentor with a core belief that success is built not by the resources you have, but by how resourceful you can be.

Noah Eubanks started painting curbs at 16 after seeing it on a YouTube video. Now he's 22, runs a 60-person fiber team, and just hit Golden Door while earning well over $200K.In this episode, Sam sits down with Noah to break down the problem most fiber reps don't want to hear: the product is so good that it's turning salespeople into order takers. Noah explains why that's costing reps thousands of dollars in missed deals and shares how he still pulls 10-13 sales in fiber vs fiber neighborhoods where everyone else struggles. He walks through his approach to cable bundlers (the doors most reps walk away from), using speed tests to create pain, and why customers aren't buying fiber—they're buying you.Noah also breaks down how he balances running a team with selling: 8:30am Starbucks meetings, split shift knocking, a personal assistant handling admin, and nightly check-in calls from the gym.Thank you for listening!

How Do You Actually Build Wealth in Belgium? Without Overcomplicating It or Leaving Money on the Table?This is the main question we discussed with Thomas Guenter, Founder and managing partner of Finhouse.We discussed the top principles of wealth creation and what it really takes to get to it.- What does it actually take to build serious wealth in Belgium today?- Is entrepreneurship the only path to wealth? Or can employees and freelancers get there too?- Which matters more for becoming wealthy: earning more or investing smarter? And how to do it? - Should you prioritise real estate or ETFs? AHow should you combine them for the highest long-term payoff?- When does diversification really add value? How much should you put in bonds, gold, crypto or private equity (if at all)?This conversation was fascinating, and Thomas does not shy away from giving real super-practical advice.We also discussed questions such as:- What does “having enough” actually mean? How do you combine wealth and happiness?- How to optimize the transfer of wealth between generations.- What are the first steps beginners should take today to build significant wealth over the next decade?- How does Private Equity and Venture Capital work? What are the pros and cons compared to a simple portfolio of ETFs?As you can see, we covered a lot of ground, which is why this episode is longer than usual. You will probably have to listen to it over multiple commute trips or workouts. But I promise, it's well worth it. And just in case you didn't know you can listen to it as an audio podcast as well.Thomas is a great guest for this topic because he is one of the young entrepreneurs in Belgium with the most experience in this field, both from his super-impressive personal journey and from the work he does with his community and clients.In 2024, Thomas was nominated for the Forbes Belgium 30 Under 30 list because of the positive impact that he has on the finances of thousands of people in Flanders. In 2025, he was nominated for the Forbes Europe 30 Under 30 list in the Finance category because of his efforts to democratize the access to private equity and venture capital through his own low-cost fund of funds, the Finhouse Global Fund.Thomas is the author of the best-selling book Personal Finance – with more than 20,000 copies sold in under a year – and reaches thousands of Belgians each month through his free educational videos about investing, real estate and wealth planning.Now, before we get started, I want to share an important disclaimer:As you will see in this conversation, I am not in favor of Private Equity or Venture Capital as an asset for individual investors. I explain why in the conversation and I stand by it. I think however that it is interesting to hear Thomas' arguments on topic. What I am hoping for is that through his work, Thomas can help challenge the industry and make it better for us individual investors at some point. For now I keep my position of warning individual investors against it.So while we have some disagreements, you will see that it is in fact a very small part of the conversation. And it does not change the respect I have for the work Thomas does to support financial literacy in Belgium. The knowledge he shares in this episode is a testament to that. It's real gold. And I want to thank Thomas for this once more.Thomas' personal website: https://www.thomasguenter.be/Finhouse website: https://finhouse.be/Follow Thomas on social media: - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/guenterthomas- Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/guenter.thomas/And if you're new to index investing, then I recommend you watch the free interactive workshop on Index Investing for Beginners in Belgium →⁠ https://firebelgium.com/investingworkshop⁠---Learn about Financial Independence in Belgium: https://firebelgium.comJoin the community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/FIREBelgium

Realtors: You're Leaving Money (and Trust) on the Table If You Ignore Renovation Strategy. Most agents only talk renos after a deal closes. But the best ones are using renovation, additions, and ADUs as a strategic advantage before their clients decide whether to move. In Episode 284 of the Sold Right Away Podcast, I sat down with Jonathan Jagt, owner of Frontier Building Group, to unpack how realtors can: Help clients compare moving vs. renovating in a clear, honest way Use additions, garage conversions, and ADUs to unlock hidden equity Support multi-generational families who need more space but can't simply “trade up” Bring in the right builder partner to protect their reputation and client relationships Turn one well-served client into multiple referrals over time Jonathan shares real case studies: ▶️ Families who saved six figures by renovating instead of moving ▶️ Garage conversions that gave adult children independence and created future rental income ▶️ ADUs that improved affordability for the next buyer and increased resale value If you want to: Stand out from every other “just listed / just sold” agent Be the one who brings solutions, not just MLS links Build long-term loyalty and referrals …this episode is a must-listen.

Send us a textThere's a CPT code out there that's worth about $16 to $20 per visit… and most of you are ignoring it. It's been right in front of us, since early 2024, and yet week after week, we watch practices leave thousands—sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars—on the table.The code is G2211. And if you haven't heard of it—or haven't trained your teams to take it seriously—you're not just missing a code. You're missing a mindset shift. Today, we're going to unpack what G2211 is, how it works, why practices routinely miss it, and what it means to treat coding as a strategy—something that drives margin, drives sustainability, and frankly, keeps your medical group from running harder for less money.But, this episode isn't just about one code. It's about a bigger conversation—one that flips the traditional narrative around coding. Because for too long, we've taught physicians and administrators that coding is all about compliance. Just don't get audited. Just stay safe. Just do the minimum. But what if that mindset is costing us millions? What if playing it so safe is actually making your group financially vulnerable?So let's flip the script. Let's talk about compliance as the floor—not the ceiling. Let's talk about coding for opportunity. Let's talk about G2211 as an example, and why it's your new best friend. Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a law firm owner who needs support with financial management? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Jessica Gonifas, an expert in implementing the Profit First system for law firms. Jessica explains how Profit First helps law firm owners prioritize profit, improve cash flow, and gain financial clarity by allocating income into dedicated accounts. Jessica shares what a profit first system is for law firms and why it is important to have. The system is about structuring your firm to focus on profit and uses the formula of sales - profit = expenses. It also includes cash management and how to allocate your cash based on what priorities you deem necessary. Jessica helps firms look at their priorities once a quarter to know what areas of the business needs to be focused on, thus allocating cash to that area in order to help with growth.Profit First also helps law firms understand their approach to money. Many lawyers don't really know how to manage money because their focus is on law and helping clients. Shifting from a lawyer to a law firm owner involves understanding money and how it needs to be distributed or handled within a firm. Jessica emphasizes the need for law firms to figure out their goals, especially their financial goals and utilize Profit First make the process easier.Listen in to learn more!00:29 Core Principles of Profit First 03:31 Strategic Financial Planning05:44 Managing Personal and Firm Finances 13:35 Streamlining and Optimizing Finances25:00 Key Metrics to Track31:19 Financial Red FlagsTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. Connect with Jessica:Website  Instagram FacebookPodcastLinkedin TikTok Youtube

My dad's furious "never again" phone call to some faceless company stuck with me for decades. Fast forward to last weekend: I'm rage-quitting Dropbox after a seemingly small slight.Sound familiar? If you're a chronic tool switcher like me, you know that moment when you've had enough. But here's what nobody talks about—switching tools isn't just about clicking "cancel subscription." That's why today I want to talk about what the actual costs are, and how to determine when to switch tools — when it will cause more clarity than chaos.Are tools just part of the problem? Take the Business Overwhelm DiagnosticTop TakeawaysThe hidden costs of switching tools go way beyond money—you're investing time to learn new systems, mental energy on decision-making, potential workflow disruption, and losing the knowledge you've built up with your current tool.Write a job description for your tools to evaluate if there's true feature parity between what you have and what you're considering—switching for the sake of switching rarely pays off.Test before you fully commit and consider how the switch affects your team members, contractors, and existing automations—I learned this the hard way when my editor's workflow got disrupted.Sometimes switching back is the right move—there's no shame in admitting a tool change didn't work out, especially if you can easily reverse course.Send feedback to at https://streamlinedfeedback.comShow NotesWhen do you burn it all down and start over?Why You're Leaving Money on the Table with Email Automation with Kronda AdairDropbox VAT Tax PolicyGoogle Workspace Business Standard (Sorry I said starter during the episode)RSS.com ★ Support this podcast ★

Ever wonder why your business shows profits on paper but your bank account tells a different story? Rocky Lalvani, the Profit Answer Man, joins us to shatter conventional accounting wisdom with a simple yet revolutionary approach: take your profit first.Most entrepreneurs follow the traditional formula of sales minus expenses equals profit, making your financial reward an afterthought—whatever happens to be left over. Rocky flips this equation, teaching that successful businesses approach it as sales minus profit equals expenses. This fundamental shift ensures you get paid first, forcing your business to operate within its means.Through riveting breakdowns of real-world scenarios, Rocky illuminates why even businesses with strong sales often struggle financially. From e-commerce sellers battling slim margins after marketplace fees to service businesses failing to account for their own time, the root problem usually traces back to incomplete math from the beginning. "If you didn't do the math on your business when you started," Rocky explains, "how did you know it would be profitable?"The conversation takes a fascinating turn examining the cash conversion cycle—how long it takes for a dollar invested to return with profit. For many e-commerce businesses, this cycle stretches beyond 160 days as products move from manufacturing to customer delivery to payment processing. This extended timeline creates a dangerous trap where growth actually threatens survival, as each new sale demands more cash before previous investments return.Rocky's airplane analogy perfectly encapsulates the entrepreneur's journey: "Running a business is like flying an airplane—you need to know your destination, have enough fuel to get there, and constantly course-correct along the way." Many businesses crash because they build an aircraft designed to carry more than it can handle, without enough runway to take off or fuel to reach their destination.Whether you're just starting your entrepreneurial journey or working to scale an existing business, this episode provides the financial clarity needed to build a company that serves your life rather than consuming it.

John Gates has been on the inside of more salary negotiations than most of us will see in a lifetime—over 75,000 offers across industries and levels. From a scrappy upbringing in Oregon to global recruiting roles at Capital One and beyond, John learned how the game works. And now, he's helping jobseekers stop lowballing themselves and start playing smarter. In this episode, he debunks the biggest salary myths, shares the scripts that work, and explains why salary negotiation starts long before the offer lands. For Gen Xers navigating job transitions or prepping for the next big move, this episode is both a wake-up call and a negotiation playbook.>>From Pizza Delivery to Pay Negotiation Powerhouse“I worked 30 hours a week at Domino's and crammed two degrees into two and a half years.”John shares how a scrappy start built the systems thinking and urgency that now powers his work with jobseekers and executives alike.>>Recruiter, Interrupted“I was laid off before my first job even started.”He reflects on the early career shock that forced him into recruiting by accident—and the surprising skills he found along the way.>>The Capital One Lightbulb Moment“I got the offer, the bonus, the relocation bump—and still felt I'd left money on the table.”That one regret launched his obsession: learning how recruiters really build offers and how much most candidates are missing out on.>>The Salary Lies That Get Recycled on LinkedIn“Know your worth and demand it? That's how you get ghosted.”John unpacks the worst advice online and explains why collaboration—not confrontation—is the smarter way to negotiate.>>When to Talk Money (and What to Say)“Most people wait until the offer. By then, it's too late for the Mercedes—you're getting the Beetle.”He reveals the step-by-step strategy that builds leverage from the first click, not the final call._____________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: John Gates  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.
