In 1986, South African businessman Rohan Vos was sitting in the bath when he decided to pursue his passion and launch a vintage railway business. However, the venture nearly bankrupted him, and he was forced to sell his family home. But, improved economic conditions in the 1990s and a chance encounter with a travel agent in London saved the business. Rovos Rail is now regarded as one of the most luxurious trains in the world, and carries passengers all over the southern half of Africa. Rohan Vos looks back on the story with Ben Henderson.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past.

Let us know what you thought about the show!In this episode, Jason speaks with Myra Salzer, CFP® & Melissa Hoyer, CFP®, CPCC of The Wealth Conservancy to explore how individuals navigating inherited or sudden wealth can shift from overwhelm to clarity, agency, and purpose. Rather than treating money as a purely financial matter, Myra and Melissa illuminate the emotional, psychological, and relational realities of wealth — and how aligning values with financial decisions can transform wealth into a meaningful ally rather than a burden.They discuss the unique identity challenges faced by inheritors, the central role of fiduciary responsibility, and the importance of proactive communication, legacy planning, and intentional philanthropy.Key Highlights & InsightsDecoding Financial Jargon — What the Terms Really MeanCertified Financial Planner (CFP®): A CFP® serves as a strategic integrator overseeing a client's entire financial ecosystem — taxes, estate strategy, insurance, investments, and long-term planning — rather than focusing only on asset management.Fiduciary Standard: A fiduciary is legally obligated to put the client's interests first, which often contrasts with institutions whose primary duty is to shareholders.Redefining Wealth: Derived from historical roots meaning “well-being” and “health,” true wealth expands beyond finances to include emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical, and community well-being.The Human Reality of Inherited & Sudden WealthThe “tsunami effect” of sudden financial responsibility often occurs without emotional or practical preparation.Paradox of Self-Worth: Entrepreneurs may connect identity to productivity, while inheritors may experience declining self-worth as net worth increases.The “Luxury of Doing Nothing” Dilemma: Without survival-driven motivation, inheritors must intentionally create purpose, challenge, and structure.Wealth as an Amplifier: Money magnifies existing traits — generosity, anxiety, creativity, or avoidance.Legacy, Family Dynamics & Proactive PlanningFair vs. Equal: Families frequently confuse equality with fairness — and the distinction matters.The biggest estate-planning risk is surprise; open, multi-generational dialogue reduces conflict and shock.Purpose-Driven Philanthropy: Giving should reflect authentic values — not obligation or performance.Their approach integrates both technical financial strategy and coaching-informed human insight.Programs, Resources & MentionsThe Way Into Wealth Program — An eight-session, one-on-one coaching experience aligning inner values with financial reality.Visit: wayintowealth.comThe Wealth Conservancy — A retainer-based fiduciary advisory firm specializing in complex wealth strategy and stewardship.Visit: thewealthconservancy.com | twwcinc.orgThe Family Room Wellness AssociatesOnline Therapy and Coaching with Jason Wasser, LMFTCheck out our guests books!Want to learn more from our guests and also see what products I suggest?Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Cristiano Ronaldo BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Cristiano Ronaldo has spent the past few days doing what has defined his entire career turning routine league matches into biographical milestones while quietly expanding his off pitch empire. In the Saudi Pro League, multiple outlets including World Soccer Talk and Bolavip report that he scored a brace in Al Nassrs 3 0 win over Al Akhdoud, taking his official career tally to an extraordinary 956 goals and pushing his 2025 haul to 40 goals at age 40, a marker that fueled fresh headlines about him nearing the once unthinkable 1000 goal barrier. Sportskeeda notes that Ronaldo seized on the moment with trademark showmanship on Instagram, captioning his post and story with the phrase 40 goals at 40 and adding playful emojis, a self aware nod to his age that was widely shared across social media and amplified by fan accounts and football pages that framed him as bending the rules of sporting time.According to Bolavip, he followed the match by issuing a crisp seven word message that local and international media spun into a banner of intent, tying his personal scoring surge directly to Al Nassrs perfect start in the league and their mounting title push, reinforcing his status as not just star attraction but central protagonist in Saudi footballs global branding project. Tribuna and other aggregators underlined the statistical significance this is now the 14th calendar year in which Ronaldo has hit at least 40 goals, a longevity record that biographers will surely circle as the defining theme of his late career.Off the pitch, the most consequential development for his long term story may be financial and lifestyle rather than sporting. In a statement from state backed developer Red Sea Global, officials confirmed that Ronaldo has purchased luxury villas at Nujuma a Ritz Carlton Reserve on Saudi Arabias Red Sea coast, describing him as a longtime visitor who has now made the ultra exclusive destination his private paradise. That move, reported in the companys own media center and echoed in regional press, signals a deeper personal and commercial anchoring in the kingdom and will likely be read as both a bet on Saudi tourism and a hint that his post playing life may remain tied to the region. Beyond these confirmed events, gossip blogs have floated unverified whispers about additional endorsement deals and reality style media projects around his family, but as of now no major outlet or brand has gone on record to confirm them.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey opens up a raw coaching call with people who aren't fractional CMOs yet—but want to be. These are agency owners tired of the hamster wheel, strategists stuck doing execution, and full-time employees wondering if this fractional thing is actually real.    Casey coaches through real deals happening this week: Eric transitioning from agency to targeting private equity exits, Roxy discovering clients keep telling her she's a "really strong strategist" but she's drowning in execution, Paul pitching a $30M company, and Ernesto trying to find IVF clinic owners who want marketing leadership instead of just need it. The conversation cuts through the noise—stop pitching, stop discounting, start having curious conversations that make fractional CMO services the obvious solution. Key Topics Covered: -The 3-5 client rule: Three is ideal—more clients means mixing up names like dating multiple people at once  -Financial structure: Client pays your fee directly (~$9,700 of $10K), then separately pays for the team you build  -Luxury pricing: They should say "that makes sense" not "can you discount?"  -Warm outreach: Share your shift, ask "who should I meet?" not "will you hire me?"  -The exit conversation: Surface if they're selling in 2 years—they won't tell their team but they'll tell you  -Never pitch, discover: Ask questions until fractional CMO is obvious, then "what questions do you have?"  -Agency owners can transition without shutting down—fractional work is separate  -Discounting kills relationships: Clients who negotiate once nickel-and-dime forever  -Find people who want to grow: Show them you're the bridge—they don't need to know fractional CMO exists yet

What does luxury really mean in today's real estate market — and how does lifestyle shape the places we call home?

Send us a textIn her 1985 essay, "Poetry Is Not a Luxury," Audre Lorde argues that poetry gives form to ideas that are "formless" but none-the-less "felt," ideas that precede "understanding." I have always believed that Lorde is describing, among other things, historic and childhood trauma. In honor of this, I am devoting these mini Holiday Break episodes of Talking About Kids to poetry about the holiday season and issues related to kids. In this first episode, I will read Edgar Guest's poem, "A Friend's Greeting," which, as the name implies, is about a friendship. A link to the poem is at talkingaboutkids.com.

Serving While Being Served is the ultimate lifestyle podcast—a space where faith meets elegance, and inspiration flows from the inside out. Since beginning this journey on March 4, 2019, I have spent six beautiful years growing, stretching, taking breaks, and allowing God to mold me. And through every season—God has been working on me.This platform pours into Religion, Fashion, Health, Luxury, and Class… but more importantly, it pours into the soul. As God fills me, I will continue to pour into others, sharing everything I learn along this God-given path called life. Because who said you can't serve others while being served?I pray that as you listen, this podcast brings love, light, and clarity to your spirit—so that you too feel empowered to go serve others with joy and purpose. May obedience lead us, just as scripture reminds us: “If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land” — Isaiah 1:19 (NKJV).Peace, blessings, and abundant favor to you.May our Heavenly Father continue to guide you, fill you, and bless you—always.With Love & Light,Sade Hall, Creator & Host

The Christmas story didn't start with luxury or polish — it started in a messy, inconvenient, lowly place. Mary and Joseph make this exhausting trip, arrive with zero comfort waiting for them, and Jesus is literally laid in a feeding trough because there's no guest room. And the point isn't “wow, that's unfortunate.” The point is: it was intentional. From the very beginning, Jesus shows us what He's like — humble, not flashy; purposeful even when it doesn't make sense; and close enough that anyone can come near. If life feels messy or disappointing right now, that's not a sign you're disqualified — it's exactly the kind of place Jesus steps into. Faith doesn't avoid the mess — it finds Jesus in it. Your faith was made for the mess. (Talk by Josh Daubert)

✈️ For Travel Quotes & Info:

Rob Henderson, known for coining the term "luxury beliefs," joins us to discuss his memoir Troubled: A Memoir of Foster Care, Family, and Social Class. Rob shares his extraordinary path—from homelessness and the LA foster care system, to adoption in rural Northern California, to enlisting in the Air Force at 17, and eventually studying at Yale and Cambridge. Rob shares research that shows how childhood instability (more than poverty alone) shapes life outcomes; why the foster system is so under-resourced; how elite cultural narratives can unintentionally harm the very communities they claim to help; and how certain "status beliefs" spread through universities and media. We discuss the hypocrisy and social dynamics of campus ideology, the "Halloween costume controversy" at Yale, and why honest conversations about family structure, class, and social policy are so hard to have yet so critical for making real progress.

#670: As we close out 2025, premium credit cards are more expensive and more complicated than ever. It's fair to ask whether the points game is still worth the effort. We sit down with Chris Hutchins, host of All the Hacks, to talk about what's changed in credit card rewards, and how to decide whether to stick with travel points, switch to cash back, or run a hybrid strategy that keeps your life simple. We dig into the “value” problem behind all those new credits and perks. Instead of letting a card dictate our spending, we walk through how to price credits based on what we would genuinely pay for them, and when it's smarter to downgrade, negotiate a retention offer, or product change and keep your credit history intact. We also get tactical about booking travel in 2026: newer award search tools, how much flexibility matters, and a sneaky alternative most people forget, sometimes you can buy points directly and still get a strong deal without years of “earning.” If you want to earn more points (or waste less time chasing them), this conversation will help you reset your credit card strategy for 2026 with a clearer definition of what “worth it” even means. Key Takeaways “Credits” are not value unless we were already going to buy the thing, and we'd happily pay close to face value for that discount The points game is still powerful, but mostly through welcome offers, not micro-optimizing bonus categories Flexibility is the hidden lever in award travel, the best deals often show up when we loosen the date, airport, or destination constraints Cash back is having a moment, especially if we want simplicity and fewer mental tabs open. Before canceling a fee card, we can often negotiate, downgrade, or product change and keep the credit history we've built Sometimes the best move is to stop “maximizing,” take the trip, and protect our time for higher-impact work (or actual rest) Resources and Links Chris Hutchins, All the Hacks (https://www.chrishutchins.com) Our deep dive on credit reports and scores, Episode 221 YouTube video mentioned on why airline loyalty programs can be worth more than the airlines themselves FlyFlat.com Seats.Aero Point.me Rome Travel AwardTool.com PointsYeah.com Daydream Explorer Chapters Note: Timestamps are approximate and may vary greatly across listening platforms due to dynamically inserted ads.
