#629: Here's the thing about personal finance advice: what works when you have $10,000 won't work when you have $1 million.  Yet most financial guidance treats everyone the same, whether you're scraping together a $1,000 emergency fund or deciding whether to upgrade to business class. Nick Maggiulli, author of "The Wealth Ladder," joins us to break down how money strategies must evolve as your net worth grows. He's mapped out 6 distinct wealth levels, each requiring different approaches to spending, saving and investing. The levels start simple.  Level 1 covers anyone with less than $10,000 in net worth — that's 20 percent of American households. Here, bad luck gets amplified. A flat tire that costs $200 could spiral into job loss and debt if you can't afford the repair. Level 2 spans $10,000 to $100,000 in net worth. Maggiulli calls this "grocery freedom" — you can splurge on the nicer eggs without checking your bank balance.  Level 3, from $100,000 to $1 million, brings "restaurant freedom."  Level 4, the $1 million to $10 million range, unlocks "travel freedom." Getting beyond Level 4 — into the $10 million-plus territory — requires business ownership or extreme patience. Maggiulli calculates that even saving $100,000 annually after hitting $1 million takes 23 years to reach $10 million, assuming 5 percent annual returns. The data shows income matters more than frugality, especially in the early levels. The median household income in Level 1 is $32,000, but in Level 4 it's $197,000, and in Level 6 it reaches $4.3 million. We discuss why homeownership dominates wealth in Levels 2 and 3, how investment assets become crucial in higher levels, and why many people in Level 4 choose "Coast FIRE" over the grinding path to Level 5.

All sentient beings are caught in the trap of suffering in the realms of existence. Bodhicitta is a mind that wishes to free beings from suffering and bring them to the state of enlightenment. A bodhisattva is a person who has that bodhicitta mind, is a practitioner of the enlightenment thought which is the aspiration to achieve complete enlightenment as a perfect Buddha for the benefit of oneself and all other sentient beings. Love and compassion are the forces that motivated all activities of Bodhisattvas. Love is a strong wish that aspires to attain happiness for all sentient beings and compassion is the state of mind that wishes each being to be freed from all sufferings or sorrows, great compassion is the root wisdom. We're talking about the compassion wing, how to cultivate Bodhichitta. This outrageous attitude really, that's based upon incredible compassion and love, that is the thought never to give up, being of benefit to sentient beings, whoever is in front of you, it's your job to help them. Never to give up long term, on working life after life perfecting all these qualities, and the final piece, the six perfections, the final stages of the Bodhisattva path. To never give up on sentient beings. What I keep emphasising is the necessity to have done some work on yourself first. Before you can really establish and develop this outrageous levels of compassion that the Mahayana teachings of the Buddha tell us that we're capable of. It's not possible if you still are caught up in your own misery, it's literally impossible to have compassion for anybody because you can't see past your own nose. It's fairly logical. Forget yourself, think of people you know who are really suffering mentally, they're absolutely absorbed in themself. Suffering could be in front of them, they can't even see it. This is the whole point about the wisdom wing work. All the fundamental teachings of the Buddha, about karma and the mind, he's addressing that to us, that's the work we have to do to see our own suffering, to work on our own self, to see our own amazing potential. Then the consequence of that is two things, one - you become more content, fulfilled, and self respectful; but two - inevitably because you're removing your own neuroses, you're removing the barriers that ego has constructed between self and other. So the more you work on your own mind, the more content you become and the more connected to others. It's just a logical process psychologically but we need to understand it, we need to see it.  So the starting point in these outrageous levels of love and compassion that culminate in Bodhichitta, is the cultivation of equanimity. This heartfelt recognition that the friend, enemy, and stranger are equal to each other from one point of view; they each want to be happy and each don't want to suffer. Why do we want that? Well because love is an expression of - may you be happy. That's the definition, the thought may you be happy. Compassion - may you not suffer. Right now we only have love and compassion for our beloveds. But if we step aside, get ourselves out of the equation, and we see these three people separately from us, we're going to see that friend, enemy, and stranger are just projections of our own delusions. We see the universe in terms of how they fulfil our needs. We should be embarrassed how self centred it is! We're trying to step out of that and get to see people from their own point of view. Like your mother would say - put yourself in their shoes. It's a very powerful statement. The brave attitude of the Bodhisattva is the sense of responsibility, what can I do to help? It's like a mother, the mother's sitting on the beach and her child is drowning, of course she's going to have compassion, instantaneously there's going to be compassion. Oh my god look at that suffering, but she's not looking around behind her to see who's going to save her baby, even if she can't swim, this is the point - she knows it's her job. That's a Bodhisattva, they know it's their job. That's what we're trying to cultivate. So it's a very brave attitude, a very courageous attitude, a very big attitude, to think that you want to feel this sense of responsibility as if everybody in the universe is your child. That's pretty profound! Centrul Budist White Mahakala, Romania, 15th September 2021. YouTube

They share hands-on experiences with various AI coding tools and models, discuss best practices (like providing clear project context vs. “vibe coding”), and outline a mental model to categorize these tools. Below are key highlights with timestamps, followed by a comprehensive list of resources mentioned.Episode Highlights00:05 – Introduction: Tim expresses feeling overwhelmed by the proliferation of AI coding tools. As a tech lead and coder, he's been trying to keep up with the hype versus reality. The discussion is set to compare notes on different tools they've each tried and to map out the current AI coding assistant landscape.01:50 – Tools Tried and Initial Impressions: David shares his journey starting with Microsoft-centric tools. His go-to has been GitHub Copilot (integrated in VS Code/Visual Studio), which now leverages various models (including OpenAI and Anthropic). He has also experimented with several alternatives: Claude Code (Anthropic's CLI agentic coder), OpenAI's Codex CLI (an official terminal-based coding agent by OpenAI), Google's Gemini CLI (an open-source command-line AI agent giving access to Google's Gemini model), and Manus (a recently introduced autonomous AI coding agent). These tools all aim to boost developer productivity, but results have been mixed – for example, Tim tried the Windsurf editor (an AI-powered IDE) using an Anthropic Claude model (“Claude 3.5 Sonnet”) and found it useful but “nowhere near 10×” productivity improvement as some LinkedIn influencers claimed. The community's take on these tools is highly polarized, with skeptics calling it hype and enthusiasts claiming dramatic gains.04:39 – Importance of Context (Prompt Engineering vs “Vibe Coding”): A major theme is providing clear requirements and context to the AI. David found that all these coding platforms (whether GUI IDE like Windsurf or Cursor, or CLI tools like Claude Code and Codex) allow you to supply custom instructions and project docs (often via Markdown) – essentially like giving the AI a spec. When he attempted building new apps, he had much more success by writing a detailed PRD (Product Requirements Document) and feeding it to the AI assistant. For instance, he gave the same spec (tech stack, features, and constraints) to Claude Code, OpenAI's Codex CLI, and Gemini CLI, and each generated a reasonable project scaffold in minutes. All stuck to the specified frameworks and even obeyed instructions like “don't add extra packages unless approved.” This underscores that if you prompt these tools with structured context (analogous to good old-fashioned requirements documents), they perform markedly better. David mentions that Amazon's new AI IDE, Kiro (introduced recently as a spec-driven development tool) embraces this “context-first” approach – aiming to eliminate one-shot “vibe coding” chaos by having the AI plan from a spec before writing code. He notes that using top-tier models (Anthropic's Claude “Opus 4” was referenced as an example, available only in an expensive plan) can further improve adherence to instructions, but even smaller models do decently if guided well.07:03 – Community Reactions: The conversation touches on the culture around these tools. There's acknowledgment of toxicity in some online discussions – e.g. seasoned engineers scoffing at newcomers using AI (“non-engineers” doing vibe coding). Tim and David distance themselves from gatekeeping attitudes; their stance is that anyone interested in the tech should be encouraged, while just being mindful of pitfalls (like code quality, security, or privacy issues when using AI). They see value in exploring all levels of AI assistance, provided one remains pragmatic about what works and stays cautious about sensitive data.29:57 – Models + 4 Levels of AI Coding Tool: Tim introduces a mental model to frame the AI coding assistant ecosystem (around 29:57). The idea is to separate the foundational models from the tools built on top, and to classify those tools into four levels of increasing capability:Underlying Models: First, there are the core large language models themselves – e.g. OpenAI's GPT-4, Anthropic's Claude (various versions like Claude 1.* and 2, including fast “Sonnet” models and the heavier “Opus” models), Google's Gemini model, as well as open-source local models. These are the engines that power everything else, but interacting with raw models isn't the whole story.Level 1 – Basic Chat Interface: Tools where you interact via a simple chat UI (text in/out) with no direct integration into your coding environment. ChatGPT in the browser, or voice assistants that can produce code snippets on request, fall here. They can write code based on prompts, but you have to copy-paste results – the AI isn't tied into your files or IDE.Level 2 – Agentic IDE/CLI Assistants: Tools that deeply integrate with your development environment, able to edit files and execute commands. This includes AI-augmented IDEs and editors like Windsurf Editor (a standalone AI-native IDE) and Cursor (AI-assisted code editor), as well as command-line agents that can manipulate your project (like the CLI versions of Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, or Gemini CLI). At this level, the AI can read your project files, make changes, create new files, run build/test commands, etc., acting almost like a pair programmer who can use the keyboard and terminal. (For example, Windsurf's “Cascade” agent mode and Cursor's agent mode allow multi-file edits and running shell commands automatically.)Level 3 – Enhanced Context and Memory: Tools or techniques focused on feeding the model more project knowledge and context (sometimes dubbed “context en...

There's a theory that if a seller focuses on a buyer's inner feelings, then they'll be more effective in closing a deal. This will require you to put your therapist cap on to tap into the customer's emotions.My guests, Jack Frimson and Zac Thompson, sales professionals and co-authors of Selling Is Therapy, share their techniques from their latest book. Listen to learn more about how you can start selling like a therapist to close more deals.Meet Jack Frimson & Zac ThompsonJack and Zac are seasoned sales professionals and co-founders of an agency specializing in helping clients book more high-quality appointments. Together, they have worked with hundreds of clients, developing practical, actionable strategies to make sales conversations more empathetic, effective, and rewarding for everyone involved. Why the Therapist Approach?Salespeople often default to outdated, aggressive tactics that leave both parties feeling slimy.Drawing inspiration from therapy, Jack and Zac discovered that the best sellers act less like “persuaders” and more like thoughtful guides, catalyzing customer self-discovery.Permission-Based Questions & “Softening the Blow”Simply asking before posing tough or blunt questions disarms prospects, making conversations feel safer and more genuine.This approach helps navigate tough topics, such as budget or decision-making authority, without sounding confrontational.Levels of ListeningGreat salespeople distinguish themselves by noticing what isn't said—body language, hesitations, or changes in tone.Calling out the “elephant in the room” (with empathy) opens space for honesty and trust.The “Test Close”Instead of forcing meetings or pushing agendas, the “test close” invites prospects to design the most valuable meeting for themselves (“What would make a call next week worthwhile for you?”).This boosts the chances of attended and effective appointments—and prospects are more invested because they helped build the agenda.The IKEA CurveWhen prospects participate in creating the solution (“If you could design your perfect platform/campaign/vendor, what would it look like?”), They feel a greater sense of ownership and buy-in.This technique is especially effective in competitive sales situations and discovery calls.Low-Stakes Practice & Continuous ExperimentationJack and Zac encourage sellers to experiment with these tactics in everyday settings, like at a coffee shop, to build confidence before using them in sales calls.Letting Go of AttachmentThe healthiest sales approach is one where you're unattached to the outcome—focused instead on helping, not convincing.If you're struggling with this, evaluate your alignment with the product, company, and your belief in the impact you deliver."Softening the blow is when we seek permission before we ask one of those big, big questions." - Jack Frimson."You always want to be calling out the elephant in the room.

Today I'm asking you what would your clone do? Remember those old “WWJD” bracelets that said, “What would Jesus do?” Well today, I'm flipping it: what would your clone do if it was here to handle all the stuff you're not doing? Imagine a version of you that doesn't get tired, doesn't make excuses, and just gets things done exactly how and when you tell it to. That's what this episode is about what your life would look like if you actually did everything you know you're supposed to be doing. I'm painting that picture for you today.

Omega-3 fatty acids have long been lauded for heart health benefits. Yet, emerging research now points to an even more profound impact, directly on our most complex organ: the brain. Today, we delve into the critical, often misunderstood, role of omega-3s in cognitive function, mental well-being, and even the prevention of neurodegenerative conditions like dementia. We are joined by Dr. Bill Harris, a globally recognised authority in omega-3 fatty acid research. Bill is a Professor at the University of South Dakota and has over 300 peer-reviewed publications. His foundational work includes pioneering studies on fish oil in the 1980s and shaping American Heart Association scientific statements. In this episode, Dr. Harris - along with ZOE's Chief Scientist Professor Sarah Berry - illuminate why most individuals may be operating with suboptimal omega-3 levels, and the tangible implications this has for mood regulation, anxiety, and long-term brain resilience. We navigate nuances between omega-3 types like EPA and DHA, debunk common misconceptions surrounding plant-based sources and mercury content in fish, and explore the precise methods for assessing and improving your own "Omega-3 Index."

Check out our special discount deal by visiting www.incogni.com/stuartgaryIn this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into groundbreaking discoveries that reveal the impact of human activity on Earth, explore a new celestial body beyond Pluto, and prepare for Japan's upcoming Martian moon mission.Human Development and Earth's Polar ShiftA recent study published in Geophysical Research Letters has confirmed that human development has caused a significant shift in Earth's spin axis. By constructing nearly 7,000 dams between 1835 and 2011, humans have redistributed the planet's mass, resulting in a total pole shift of about 1.13 meters. Lead author Natasha Valencic explains how this shift not only affects Earth's rotation but also contributes to a global drop in sea levels. The findings underscore the importance of considering water impoundment in future sea level rise calculations.Discovery of a World Beyond PlutoAstronomers have identified a small celestial object, designated 2023 KQ14, located beyond Pluto, potentially challenging the existence of the elusive Planet Nine. This discovery, detailed in Nature Astronomy, suggests that the outer solar system is more diverse than previously thought. With a stable orbit for over 4.5 billion years, 2023 KQ14's peculiar trajectory raises questions about the formation and evolution of distant solar system bodies, as well as the dynamics of gravitational influences in this remote region.Japan's Martian Moon Sample Return MissionJapan's aerospace exploration agency JAXA is set to launch the Martian Moons Exploration Mission (MMX) in 2026. This ambitious mission aims to land on Phobos, collect samples, and return them to Earth by 2031. The spacecraft will also conduct a flyby of Deimos while gathering crucial data to determine the origins of Mars' moons. With advanced scientific instruments onboard, the mission seeks to unravel the mysteries surrounding these small, potato-shaped moons and their relationship to the Red Planet's history.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesGeophysical Research Lettershttps://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/19448007Nature Astronomyhttps://www.nature.com/natureastronomy/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

You've heard the advice that to build wealth, you need to earn more, spend less, and invest consistently. But what if there was a clearer way to understand exactly where you stand financially — and what steps you should take to reach the next level?My guest, Nick Maggiulli, offers just such a framework. Nick is the creator of the Of Dollars And Data blog, the Chief Operating Officer at Ritholtz Wealth Management, and the author of The Wealth Ladder. Today on the show, he unpacks the Wealth Ladder concept, taking the complex, often overwhelming concept of personal finance and distilling it into six easy-to-understand wealth levels, each tied to specific net-worth milestones and financial freedoms.Nick walks us through each rung of the Wealth Ladder, from getting out of financial instability to achieving restaurant and travel freedom, and eventually reaching upper levels of significant financial independence. We discuss the distinct strategies you should utilize on each rung to make the most of that level and move on to the next. And we get into why your spending decisions should be based on your net worth rather than your income, how wealth allocation changes dramatically as you climb the ladder, and why increasing your earning potential becomes more important than penny-pinching as you progress.Whether you're just getting started or well on your financial journey, this episode provides actionable insights and practical wisdom for climbing the Wealth Ladder and securing a life of greater freedom and fulfillment.Resources Related to the PodcastNick's previous appearance on the AoM podcast: Episode #836 — Data-Backed Answers to Personal Finance ControversiesNick's previous book: Just Keep Buying: Proven Ways to Save Money and Build Your WealthNick's article: What is Coast FIRE?

All sentient beings are caught in the trap of suffering in the realms of existence. Bodhichitta is a mind that wishes to free beings from suffering and bring them to the state of enlightenment. A bodhisattva is a person who has that bodhichitta mind, is a practitioner of the enlightenment thought which is the aspiration to achieve complete enlightenment as a perfect Buddha for the benefit of oneself and all other sentient beings. Love and compassion are the forces that motivated all activities of Bodhisattvas. Love is a strong wish that aspires to attain happiness for all sentient beings and compassion is the state of mind that wishes each being to be freed from all sufferings or sorrows, great compassion is the root wisdom. In all the Buddhist teachings, there's so many of them, it seems such a vast number of teachings, the key thing I think we find difficult is to put them in some kind of framework, to understand how all the teachings relate to each other. When we study any body of knowledge, we know that's what we do, when you're studying anything, you know where it fits, if it's a more advanced teaching you have to understand the relationship to the earlier teaching, this makes sense, it's really logical. But we don't think of spiritual teachings like that. I can't stress it enough, what work we need to have done on ourselves in order to have compassion for others. We can discuss the qualities of compassion, what they are and how you get them. But if we haven't done enough work in the earlier part of the practice, it's impossible, it's like a joke, we don't understand it. Especially the teachings here, on how to be a Bodhisattva. It's a Sanskrit word, the loose equivalent you could say - a saint. If you sit there as a Catholic and listen to the teachings on how to become a saint, it sounds ridiculous doesn't it. It sounds too high! It seems impossible. Buddha's view is, we've all got this extraordinary potential, the wisdom wing is all the work you do to develop your qualities, it's about you, you are the beneficiary of those practices. The very first level of practice, you abide by the laws of karma, you have discipline, you live in vows, you stop harming others. Why? Because you don't want future suffering, because everything you think and do and say, produces the person you become. Then you go to the next level of practice and you start to unpack and unravel your mind, this is the key job. You really begin to have a deep understanding of Buddhist psychology, you know what the delusions are, you know what the positive qualities are, and you know how to distinguish between them. You are the beneficiary of this! You're turning yourself into a less neurotic, less angry, less attached, less harmful person. You're becoming a wiser, more relaxed, more fulfilled person. The practices are all related to how to turn you into a marvellous person. Now what this qualifies you to do, is enter into the compassion work. Now you keep working on yourself, that never stops, but now the reference point is how to help others. How to break down the barriers between the neurotic self and others. How to develop these profound levels of love, compassion, great compassion, that culminate in this outrageous approach called Bodhichitta.

EPISODE 49: An ADHD Guide To Cortisol + 13 Tips To Lower Your Cortisol Levels In this episode: Exhaustion during the day, racing thoughts at night, sleep problems, anxiety, and unexplained inflammation can all be signs of a nervous system stuck in high-alert mode. While dopamine gets most of the attention in ADHD conversations, cortisol — the body's primary stress hormone — plays a major role in how energy, focus, and fatigue are regulated. High cortisol, not low, is often behind chronic stress patterns in people with ADHD and AuDHD. I give tips on how to interrupt your long-term stress loop in ways your nervous system can actually handle.   SOURCES The Intersection of ADHD and Hormones, CHADD The WorkOut Witch The Complex PTSD Workbook   SHOW NOTES "You Are A LOT" Podcast on Patreon  "You Are A LOT" Podcast Website Jen's Every 10 Day Newsletter: “This Is A Lot”  Call The “A Lot” Line at (347) 674-2201 Send an email to the podcast at alotadhdpod at gmail dot com 30 FREE DAYS to BRAIN FM Wire Your Brain For Focus!  $50 Group ADHD Coaching (Jen's Coach) 15% Off HUGIMALS weighted stuffed animals with code JENKIRKMAN
