Podcasts about Making Money

Sasha Sweets grew up in California as a natural hustler — selling candy before moving to drugs, working at a strip club, and always chasing the finer things in life while her father was in prison for part of her childhood — before getting into a scamming operation with the father of her child in her early twenties that produced a federal indictment, 3.5 years in federal prison across California, Kentucky, and Arizona, and over $2 million in restitution. _____________________________________________  #crimenews #prisonstory #truecrimestories #scam _____________________________________________  Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

Your content is working. Your profile is not. Somebody watches your video. They like what you said. They tap your name... and then they decide in about three seconds whether you are worth their time. Most experts never find out what happens in those three seconds. This week Fonzie got on a call with a guy who is genuinely good at what he does. Real students. Real sales. Real proof behind him. His profile said almost none of it, and he had no idea he was losing people because of it. He has been leaking buyers for years without knowing. So we broke the whole thing down on the show. What a prospect is actually looking for when they land on you. Why most profiles fail that test without the owner ever noticing. And how long it really takes to fix (a lot less than you think). There is a 30 second exercise in the middle of this one. Grab your phone before you hit play.

Six years into the expansion, the commercial real estate cycle still looks early. Michael Bull, CCIM covers 2026 rates, supply, and office with BGO Chief Economist Ryan Severino, CFA. Ryan Severino, CFA, Chief Economist and Head of Research for the U.S. at BGO, explains why a cycle that is six years old still behaves like an early to mid cycle expansion. Debt sits at moderate levels, the labor market has room to run, and leverage has stayed disciplined. He sees runway left in the economy and in commercial real estate. The conversation covers where inflation and interest rates go from here, why the 10-year Treasury has trouble moving far off 4% on fundamentals alone, and how trade policy and the conflict in Iran are adding roughly 30 to 60 basis points to the long end of the curve. Severino also makes the case that today's rates only feel high because most people working in this industry have spent their entire careers in a market where the 10-year stayed below 5% for a quarter century. On the property side: the construction pipeline is the most benign on record relative to existing inventory, which means owners no longer need an outsized jump in demand to compress vacancy and restart rent growth. Severino explains why he is more constructive on office than most of the industry, drawing a direct comparison to how wrong the popular narrative on retail was for 15 years. Michael Bull adds a live example, a 17-story tower coming to market at $64 per square foot, below the cost of building out the space. The episode closes on what Severino calls a recovery out of order. In a normal cycle, capital markets recover first and space market fundamentals lag. This time fundamentals are recovering while elevated long-term rates hold the capital markets back. His view on the next 12 to 24 months: higher transaction volume, more attractive pricing, and a real estate return profile that compares well against a richly valued stock market.

You can have money in the bank and still have no idea whether your franchise is actually profitable.For many franchise owners, financial literacy isn't something they learned before going into business or during onboarding. They may know their revenue, watch their bank balance, and have a bookkeeper handling the numbers, but that doesn't necessarily mean they understand what their P&L is telling them or how to use that information to spot problems early instead of reacting after it's too late. In this episode, leading financial educator and Certified Franchise Executive, and creator of the Profitability Playbook, Rod Bristol shares what he's learned from decades of helping franchise owners understand the numbers behind their businesses. Rod explains why making money doesn't always mean your business is profitable, the four ways every business can improve profitability, and why understanding concepts like break-even and contribution margin, alongside healthy cash flow management, can completely change the way an owner operates their business.Rod also shares why financial education should begin during franchisee onboarding, what franchisors can learn by looking closely at unit-level profitability, and the simple monthly habit he sees among the most profitable business owners. You'll also hear the story of franchisees who went from struggling with profitability to operating five million-dollar locations, and why Rod believes understanding your numbers gives you the ability to make better decisions, grow intentionally, and build a more valuable business.Connect with Rod:Email: Rodbristol@icloud.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rod-bristol-cfe-a72167163/Text/Call: 206-742-3443Rod's Book Recommendations:The Martian by Andy WeirProject Hail Mary by Andy WeirEpisode Highlights:Why revenue doesn't always equal profitabilityUnderstanding your P&L and financial statementsWhy financial literacy should start during onboardingThe importance of franchisee unit economicsWhen poor profitability signals a broken franchise modelThe four ways to improve profitabilityUsing break-even and contribution margin to make decisionsWhy franchisors need to focus beyond the top lineThe monthly financial habit of profitable ownersMaking proactive decisions before financial problems grow Resources:Leadership Lessons from Jo Kirchner on Perfection, Progress & Community - https://www.buzzsprout.com/2369319/episodes/15909664-leadership-lessons-from-jo-kirchner-on-perfection-progress-and-communityLeading with Passion, Purpose & Loyalty w/ Paul Pickett - https://www.buzzsprout.com/2369319/episodes/17267486-leading-with-passion-purpose-loyalty-w-paul-pickett         Connect with TracyPersonal LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-panase/JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsaleJBF Franchise System - https://jbfsalefranchise.com/Email: podcast@jbfsale.comConnect with ShannonPersonal LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonwilburn/       JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsaleWebsite - https://shineexecutivecoaching.com/Email - shannon@shineexecutivecoaching.com

What if your business keeps growing, but your personal wealth does not?Phil Calandra built an insurance brokerage and an investment advisoryfirm with approximately $250 million under management before sellingboth companies in a single transaction to a $10 billion firm. The dealmade work optional. It also helped him see a problem that traps fartoo many founders.Most business owners have plenty of specialists: a bookkeeper, CPA,fractional CFO, financial advisor, and perhaps a business consultant.Each may be competent. But when no one coordinates the completefinancial system, the founder becomes the conductor, and the business,tax strategy, and personal wealth can begin working against oneanother.Phil calls this the coordination gap. It is how an owner can drivemore revenue, pay more taxes, assume more complexity, and still wonderwhy the wealth is not showing up outside the company.In this episode, Phil and Jerome Myers discuss the heart attack thatchanged Phil's relationship with risk, the unsolicited offer that ledto his two exits, the emotional high after the transaction, and why hechose to build again. They also examine the revenue trap, the dangerof assuming “I'll make it all when I sell,” and the three financialflywheels every founder must coordinate: business profitability, taxstrategy, and owner wealth.If your entire wealth plan depends on a future transaction, thisconversation will challenge you to start extracting the value of thebusiness before the exit.In This Episode:• Why an exit made Phil work optional but did not make him want to retire• How a heart attack at 51 influenced his decision to sell• Why more revenue does not necessarily mean more owner wealth• Where CPAs, CFOs, bookkeepers, and wealth managers can work at cross purposes• How the coordination gap turns the founder into the financial bottleneck• Why the business and the owner's wealth must be planned as one system• How to coordinate profitability, tax strategy, and personal wealthbefore a saleResources:Wealth Creation Scorecard: https://wealthcreationscorecard.comExit to Excellence: https://exittoexcellence.comAll the best,Jerome Learn more about your ad choices.

Michael Wayne grew up in Mississippi, attended the Naval Academy, left after his father died, built a career in business and investments while running a hedge fund for fifteen years, spent twenty-five years as a clandestine CIA contractor operating across some of the most sensitive and most dangerous missions available — and then went to Ukraine after the 2022 Russian invasion to organize humanitarian aid, evacuate women and children from combat zones, train Ukrainian soldiers, and deliver equipment to the front line before discovering widespread corruption tied to Ukraine aid that he says reached powerful US politicians. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, he shares what twenty-five years as a CIA contractor actually looked like from the inside, what changed after 9/11 in the intelligence world, what the Ukraine work actually involved, what the corruption he discovered actually implicated, and what the DOJ prosecution that followed his decision to push back against that corruption actually produced — including a wire fraud conviction, a federal prison sentence at FPC Montgomery, and what he believes was a deliberate government effort to make him a convicted felon before he could become a whistleblower. _____________________________________________  #TrueCrime #espionage #cia #prisonstory _____________________________________________ Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/ksjh06pb #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

His administration is destroying one of the paper trails investigators need to follow secret money…See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A lot of Christian women are building businesses while secretly believing that wanting real financial growth is unspiritual. They pray for provision but cap what they let themselves pursue. If you're searching for "God and making money in business" or "is it okay to want to make money as a Christian entrepreneur," this episode  directly answers that question. In this episode I share three lessons God actually taught me about money, the real, honest, liberating truth that changed how I build and how I earn. The three lessons are: God can't bless what you won't build (provision flows through obedience and infrastructure, not just prayer); guilt about money is not humility, it's a lie the enemy uses to keep Kingdom women financially small; and consistent income requires a consistent system, not constant hustle.  The parable of the talents frames the entire teaching — burying what God gave you is not humility, it is disobedience. Scripture anchors include 1 Timothy 6:10 (it's the LOVE of money that's the problem, not money itself) and Luke 16:10 (faithful with little is the qualification for being trusted with more).  The episode closes with a Four-Step Action plan: audit your money beliefs, audit your offer and funnel, repent of anywhere you've buried your talent, and a word-for-word prayer of surrender and stewardship. God is not withholding financial blessing from you because you want it too much. He is waiting to see if you will faithfully build what He told you to build.  I pray this episode sets you free.    Ready to build a podcast-powered business that produces consistent income?

Send us Fan MailIn the fourth and final episode of our business lessons series, Amanda and I take an honest look at the financial side of owning and growing a plastic surgery practice.Having money in the bank does not necessarily mean your business is profitable. We discuss how we use profit-and-loss statements, detailed spreadsheets, overhead calculations, and procedure costs to understand what the practice is actually earning—and why simply copying a competitor's pricing can quickly put you in a position where you are losing money on a treatment.We also explain why staying small has been one of the smartest decisions we have made, how unnecessary staff and oversized office spaces can quietly drain a business, and why controlling expenses is just as important as generating revenue.Finally, we share our biggest financial regrets, including expensive devices that failed to deliver, financing contracts we should have read more carefully, and the hidden costs of running a business that many new owners never anticipate. From employee benefits and payroll taxes to insurance, marketing, and vendor expenses, this conversation covers the financial lessons we had to learn through experience.Whether you are opening a medical practice, growing a med spa, or running another type of small business, this episode offers practical advice for protecting your cash flow, making smarter investments, and building a profitable business without getting distracted by what everyone else is doing.

What if the biggest problem in your business isn't marketing, sales, or finance—but the way you think and behave? In this episode, Gino Barbaro explores the concept of business archetypes and how unconscious patterns, beliefs, and emotional responses can influence the way you lead, make decisions, and grow your business. There are 10 different business archetypes, including the Rebel, Warrior, Servant Leader, Gambler, Novice, Inventor, Dictator, Conservator, Entrepreneur, and Master. None of them are inherently good or bad. The key is understanding how each archetype shows up in your behavior—and recognizing when one may be helping you or holding you back. Gino shares personal examples from his restaurant and real estate journey, including how the Conservator and Novice archetypes affected his ability to grow and scale. He also explains how activating the Warrior mindset helped him develop a growth mindset, learn new systems, and move beyond the limitations of his previous experience. Ask yourself: • Which business archetype sounds most like you? • Where has this archetype helped you succeed? • Where has it become a liability? • What behavior do you need to change to take your business to the next level? The goal isn't to become a different person. It's to become more self-aware—so you can recognize the patterns influencing your decisions and consciously choose how you want to respond. Want to discover all 10 business archetypes? Email Gino at Gino@JakeandGino.com to receive the full list and characteristics of each archetype.

He has trained more than one million people across 1,200 organizations in 47 countries and has coached executives, athletes, entrepreneurs, and leaders from companies including Meta, Google, LinkedIn, and OpenAI. Bill also co-founded Do Something and what became Raptive, making his journey from living on virtually no income to building successful businesses especially unique. On this episode we talk about: Bill's unusual journey from intentionally making zero dollars to becoming a successful entrepreneur The transition from nonprofit work to building for-profit businesses and why scaling behavior is similar in both worlds The relationship between money, happiness, impact, and personal fulfillment How to determine your own financial “number” instead of chasing wealth because of societal expectations Why continuous learning and personal growth should continue long after you leave school The power of asking better questions and learning to approach problems from different perspectives Why trying to accomplish everything alone can hold you back Top 3 Takeaways Define what “enough” means for you. Instead of endlessly chasing more money, determine the amount you actually need to support the lifestyle you want, celebrate reaching it, and then decide what you want to pursue next. Keep reinventing yourself. Your goals and priorities should evolve as you move through different stages of life. Don't assume that graduating, retiring, or reaching a certain age means you've stopped learning and growing. Stop trying to do everything alone. Success often comes from combining individual initiative with the support, knowledge, and resources of other people. Find others who are working toward similar goals and build together. Notable Quotes “Happiness doesn't link to more money, but the challenge of building things is what gives you happiness.” “Don't connect the complete money to your identity. That's where people get in trouble.” “Almost all of our failures are because we think we should [do it alone].” Connect with Bill Hoogterp: LinkedIn: Bill Hoogterp on LinkedIn Website: LifeHikes Other: LifeHikes leadership training and executive coaching A Word from Our Sponsors: - Go to Leesa.com for 25% OFF select mattresses (through August 23, 2026) PLUS get an extra $50 off with promo code TMM, exclusive for my listeners  Learn more about your ad choices.

August 7, 2026 – AI is generating enormous amounts of revenue—but Zach Abraham and Chase Taylor argue investors may be confusing the money being made building AI with the money ultimately generated using it. They revisit the AI bull case, the extraordinary capital spending behind the buildout, and why the companies selling the picks and shovels may be telling a very different story from the businesses expected to eventually justify the investment. They also break down the latest jobs report, inflation risks, oil-market tightness, developments around Iran, and what the market may be overlooking heading into the second half of the year.

Guest: LaVashia Davis, Founder of Ell Wess Advisors (boutique family office and wealth management firm)Host: Rushion McDonaldTopic: Building multigenerational wealth, family wealth planning, asset protection, and creating lasting legacies. Purpose of the Interview The interview focuses on helping first-generation wealth builders and entrepreneurs understand that wealth creation is about more than investments. Davis explains how families can organize, protect, grow, and transfer wealth across generations by treating their family finances as a structured enterprise rather than simply accumulating money. A central theme is that many successful individuals earn substantial incomes but lack a blueprint for preserving and transferring wealth. Davis advocates for intentional planning, legal structures, family involvement, and asset protection to create lasting legacies. Key Takeaways 1. Wealth Requires a Blueprint Davis explains that creating a legacy does not happen automatically. Families need a deliberate plan, legal structures, and defined roles if they want wealth to survive beyond one generation. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Making money and building wealth are not the same. Wealth requires systems and succession planning. 2. Family Should Be Treated as an Asset One of Davis's strongest messages is that family members can play meaningful roles in wealth-building efforts. She argues that when people think about legacy, they often overlook the importance of human relationships and family participation. Wealth-transfer strategies frequently require successors, trustees, managers, and beneficiaries. Many of those roles can be filled by family members. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Family can be a strategic asset when properly organized and aligned. 3. Not Every Family Member Contributes Equally Davis acknowledges that some family members may behave more like liabilities than assets. Using a balance-sheet analogy, she explains that every family includes both contributors and individuals who may create financial burdens. The key is identifying those dynamics without allowing them to derail long-term wealth planning. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Successful family wealth planning requires honest assessment of family dynamics. 4. Wealth Management Is More Than Investments Davis differentiates her firm's approach from traditional investment-focused advisory services. Her firm begins with: Family and wealth governance Legal structures Estate planning Tax planning Business succession planning Preparing future generations to inherit wealth Investments are addressed after these foundational elements are in place. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Investments should support a broader wealth strategy, not drive it. 5. "Your Family Is a Business" One of Davis's most memorable concepts is that families should think of themselves as enterprises. She advises clients to separate their “wealth business” from their personal household and to create structures that can survive beyond their lifetime. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Families should operate with the same intentionality that successful businesses use. 6. First-Generation Wealth Creates Unique Challenges Davis specializes in serving people who are the first high earners or successful entrepreneurs within their families. She notes that these individuals often face challenges that previous generations never had to navigate, including: Sudden financial complexity Family expectations Tax planning Asset protection Wealth transfer decisions [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: New wealth requires new skills and specialized guidance. 7. There Are Four Forms of Capital Davis identifies four sources of capital: Human Capital – people, family, relationships Intellectual Capital – knowledge and expertise Social Capital – networks and connections Financial Capital – money and assets She argues that most families focus only on financial capital while neglecting the others. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth is broader than money. 8. Asset Protection Is Essential Davis warns that unprotected assets can disappear quickly due to lawsuits, business failures, creditor claims, or debt obligations. She emphasizes the importance of proper ownership structures, legal entities, and asset protection strategies. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth must be protected as carefully as it is created. 9. Different Advisors Serve Different Stages of Wealth When McDonald asks how people should evaluate their current financial advisor, Davis provides a thoughtful perspective: An advisor who helped someone build their first million dollars may not be the right advisor to help them grow to ten million dollars. Increased wealth often brings more complexity and a need for broader expertise. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Financial advisory needs evolve as wealth grows. Notable Quotes On Family and Legacy "Your family is your God-given team, not your liability." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Planning "When you say that you want to build something that's long lasting or you want to create a legacy for children, there's a blueprint that needs to be followed." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Dynamics "Your family even has a balance sheet when it comes to assets and liabilities." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Financial Complexity "My particular mission is the first-generation families who want to make an exponential difference in their families." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Her Approach "We don't begin with investments. We begin by stabilizing and creating a way that you really want to operate your wealth business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Wealth "Your family and your finances are definitely a business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Building "Your family is in the business of growing the value of your last name. Period." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Capital "The four sources of capital are human capital, intellectual capital, social capital, and financial capital." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Asset Protection "The wealth you build can be taken if it's not protected." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Advisor Selection "The advisor that may have gotten you to your first million... may not be the advisor that can get you to ten million." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Overall Message Lavashia Davis's core message is that wealth is not simply about earning or investing money—it is about building systems, structures, and family alignment that allow wealth to endure across generations. By treating the family as an asset, activating multiple forms of capital, protecting assets legally, and planning intentionally, families can transform income into legacy. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A central theme is that many successful individuals earn substantial incomes but lack a blueprint for preserving and transferring wealth. Davis advocates for intentional planning, legal structures, family involvement, and asset protection to create lasting legacies. Key Takeaways 1. Wealth Requires a Blueprint Davis explains that creating a legacy does not happen automatically. Families need a deliberate plan, legal structures, and defined roles if they want wealth to survive beyond one generation. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Making money and building wealth are not the same. Wealth requires systems and succession planning. 2. Family Should Be Treated as an Asset One of Davis's strongest messages is that family members can play meaningful roles in wealth-building efforts. She argues that when people think about legacy, they often overlook the importance of human relationships and family participation. Wealth-transfer strategies frequently require successors, trustees, managers, and beneficiaries. Many of those roles can be filled by family members. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Family can be a strategic asset when properly organized and aligned. 3. Not Every Family Member Contributes Equally Davis acknowledges that some family members may behave more like liabilities than assets. Using a balance-sheet analogy, she explains that every family includes both contributors and individuals who may create financial burdens. The key is identifying those dynamics without allowing them to derail long-term wealth planning. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Successful family wealth planning requires honest assessment of family dynamics. 4. Wealth Management Is More Than Investments Davis differentiates her firm's approach from traditional investment-focused advisory services. Her firm begins with: Family and wealth governance Legal structures Estate planning Tax planning Business succession planning Preparing future generations to inherit wealth Investments are addressed after these foundational elements are in place. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Investments should support a broader wealth strategy, not drive it. 5. "Your Family Is a Business" One of Davis's most memorable concepts is that families should think of themselves as enterprises. She advises clients to separate their “wealth business” from their personal household and to create structures that can survive beyond their lifetime. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Families should operate with the same intentionality that successful businesses use. 6. First-Generation Wealth Creates Unique Challenges Davis specializes in serving people who are the first high earners or successful entrepreneurs within their families. She notes that these individuals often face challenges that previous generations never had to navigate, including: Sudden financial complexity Family expectations Tax planning Asset protection Wealth transfer decisions [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: New wealth requires new skills and specialized guidance. 7. There Are Four Forms of Capital Davis identifies four sources of capital: Human Capital – people, family, relationships Intellectual Capital – knowledge and expertise Social Capital – networks and connections Financial Capital – money and assets She argues that most families focus only on financial capital while neglecting the others. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth is broader than money. 8. Asset Protection Is Essential Davis warns that unprotected assets can disappear quickly due to lawsuits, business failures, creditor claims, or debt obligations. She emphasizes the importance of proper ownership structures, legal entities, and asset protection strategies. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Wealth must be protected as carefully as it is created. 9. Different Advisors Serve Different Stages of Wealth When McDonald asks how people should evaluate their current financial advisor, Davis provides a thoughtful perspective: An advisor who helped someone build their first million dollars may not be the right advisor to help them grow to ten million dollars. Increased wealth often brings more complexity and a need for broader expertise. [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Takeaway: Financial advisory needs evolve as wealth grows. Notable Quotes On Family and Legacy "Your family is your God-given team, not your liability." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Planning "When you say that you want to build something that's long lasting or you want to create a legacy for children, there's a blueprint that needs to be followed." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Dynamics "Your family even has a balance sheet when it comes to assets and liabilities." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Financial Complexity "My particular mission is the first-generation families who want to make an exponential difference in their families." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Her Approach "We don't begin with investments. We begin by stabilizing and creating a way that you really want to operate your wealth business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Family Wealth "Your family and your finances are definitely a business." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Wealth Building "Your family is in the business of growing the value of your last name. Period." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Capital "The four sources of capital are human capital, intellectual capital, social capital, and financial capital." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Asset Protection "The wealth you build can be taken if it's not protected." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] On Advisor Selection "The advisor that may have gotten you to your first million... may not be the advisor that can get you to ten million." [Lavashia D...(Podcast) | Txt] Overall Message Lavashia Davis's core message is that wealth is not simply about earning or investing money—it is about building systems, structures, and family alignment that allow wealth to endure across generations. By treating the family as an asset, activating multiple forms of capital, protecting assets legally, and planning intentionally, families can transform income into legacy. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Elliott expects a hawkish hold, notes inflation has stayed above target for years, and argues oil risks are underpriced given shrinking strategic reserves and potential demand destruction. He explains the recent rise in long-term yields is driven by higher real rates, reflecting capital demand from AI capex and deficits, and says 30-year TIPS near 3% real yields look attractive versus stretched equities. Gold has held steady despite higher real rates amid strong Chinese and central-bank demand. They discuss heavy equity and bond supply, a frozen housing market, weakening consumer tailwinds as tax-refund support fades, limited systemic risk from private credit but poor forward returns, leverage and passive-market structure issues, and China's low-growth malaise alongside aggressive low-cost AI competition. The episode ends with Kalshi picks: unchanged rates with at least one dissenter, no 2026 rate hikes, and S&P 500 not reaching 8,000 in 2026.--ABOUT THE SHOWFor decades, Danny has seen it all on Wall Street and has built his reputation on integrity, curiosity and skepticism that he will bring with him each week.

Rick sits down with George Rivera to talk about the part of success most founders do not want to admit. You can build the business. Make the money. Still lose the room at home.In this conversation George Rivera, an entrepreneur who helped build a supplement company past $200 million in sales, talks about the deathbed sentence from his father that changed everything. “Don't miss Leo's games. I missed too many of yours.” That hit became the line he refused to cross.This episode gets into founder dependency, hero identity, delegation, buying back your time, and the silent drift that happens when your family stops expecting you to show up. Founder burnout and founder work life balance are still major conversations in 2026, especially around building companies that do not require constant founder collapse to survive.In this interview you'll learn:Why “I'll make it up later” is one of the most dangerous lies founders tell themselvesHow your business can train your family to stop counting on youWhy being needed can turn into a prison if you never let anyone else own the workHow George cut his hours down and still grew the companyWhy presence at home has to be built into the business before it is too lateFollow Rick's Socials:Instagram | LinkedIn | RickJordan.TVKeywords: founder burnout, founder dad, entrepreneur dad, work life balance, buy back your time, george rivera, rick jordan, frequency podcast, founder dependency, business bottleneck, hero identity, delegation, ai automation, founder prison, family drift, present father, dad guilt, entrepreneur burnout, business systems, time freedom, business owner mindset, leadership pressure, founder mental health, high performer burnout, family first business, scaling a company, business growth, entrepreneur habits, stop micromanaging, automate delegate eliminate, work less grow more, founder story, fatherhood, business and family, silent drift, make it up later, successful but absent, time audit
