New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Michael Woodward. Interview Overview Guest: Michael WoodwardHost: Rushion McDonaldShow: Money Making Conversations MasterclassFocus: Entrepreneurship, real estate, education, overcoming poverty, and building generational wealthCompany Featured: Woodward Property Group Michael Woodward shares his journey from growing up in low‑income neighborhoods in Miami to becoming a successful real estate investor, contractor, and property management entrepreneur based in Atlanta. The conversation blends personal history, mindset lessons, and practical business guidance, especially for listeners from underserved communities. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of the interview is to: Demystify success for everyday people by showing how discipline, education, and calculated risk can lead to financial freedom Inspire listeners to move beyond circumstances of poverty or limitation Teach practical strategies around education choices, real estate investing, side hustles, credit management, and seizing opportunity Highlight community impact, mentorship, and “reaching back” to help others Rushion McDonald consistently frames the discussion around helping the audience “stop reading other people’s success stories and start planning your own." Key Themes & Takeaways 1. Poverty Is Relative — and Often Invisible Woodward explains that many people grow up in poverty without realizing it because everyone around them shares the same conditions. He distinguishes between government definitions of poverty and lived experience. Takeaway: Awareness is the first step to change; normal does not always mean acceptable. 2. Early Business Lessons Came from the Community Woodward credits his grandmother—who ran an informal candy business in the housing projects—as his first exposure to entrepreneurship. Watching her manage inventory, customers, and cash taught him foundational business principles. Takeaway: Entrepreneurship often begins long before formal education—especially in underserved communities. 3. Education as a Strategic Tool, Not Just a Degree Initially planning to become a lawyer, Woodward changed direction after realizing law school would not provide the financial or social return he hoped for unless he reached elite status. A mentor guided him toward education as a pathway for impact. He strongly recommends the Occupational Outlook Handbook as a practical guide for choosing careers based on income, longevity, and demand. Takeaway: Choose education intentionally—based on outcomes, not prestige. 4. Service Before Profit: Two Decades in Education Woodward spent over 20 years as a teacher and assistant principal, mentoring students, organizing college tours, and running summer STEM programs—often during his breaks. Takeaway: Long‑term service builds perspective, discipline, and purpose that later pays dividends in business. 5. Turning a Side Hustle into Financial Freedom While working in education, Woodward renovated homes at night and on weekends. Over time, rental income exceeded his school salary, allowing him to retire from education and focus on real estate full‑time. Takeaway: Side hustles can become exit strategies when managed consistently and patiently. 6. Opportunity Comes from Relationships A chance relationship with a Lowe’s executive changed Woodward’s business trajectory. When asked if he could do high‑end kitchens, he said yes—then partnered with the right experts to deliver. This led to contracts in seven Lowe’s stores across metro Atlanta. Takeaway: You don’t have to know everything—just know who to call. 7. High‑End Thinking Changes Income Ceilings Woodward explains the difference between standard and high‑end construction, describing six‑figure kitchens and appliances that cost more than many homes. Takeaway: Understanding premium markets unlocks entirely different financial opportunities. 8. Two Core Business Rules: Persistence and Credit When asked what advice he gives most often, Woodward gives two principles: Never give up Protect your credit He shares how poor credit once forced him to reinvest profits just to buy tools, slowing growth. Managing credit later removed those barriers. Takeaway: Credit is leverage. Without it, growth is harder and more expensive. Notable Quotes On poverty: “A lot of people living in poverty don’t know that they’re impoverished because everybody around them looks just like them.” On education choices: “I wanted to make a difference… and education allowed me to do that.” On opportunity and courage: “You don’t have to know everything. Just get the people in your corner that do.” On advice to entrepreneurs: “Never give up. And protect your credit. Credit is everything.” On consistency: “My phone number has been the same for 23 years. I ain’t going nowhere. Overall Impact The interview positions Michael Woodward as a practical role model—someone who combines humility, preparation, faith, and execution. Rather than promoting quick wins, the conversation emphasizes long‑term discipline, community uplift, and strategic decision‑making. Core message: Sustainable success is built step‑by‑step—through education, relationships, credit discipline, and the courage to say yes before you feel ready. #SHMS #BEST #STRAW Money Making Conversations Master Class with Rushion McDonald is America's premier entrepreneurship, business leadership, financial literacy, and wealth-building podcast featuring successful entrepreneurs, executives, founders, celebrities, and industry experts sharing actionable insights for professional and financial success.

You work hard, make good money, and know you should be saving… so why do you keep dipping into your savings account?
Most money advice is not necessarily wrong. It is just incomplete. “Spend less than you make.” “Save more.” “Avoid debt.” “Max everything out.” “Invest aggressively.” “You should know this by now.” Those rules may sound responsible, but they do not always answer the real questions women are asking when they are already doing well on paper. In this episode, Shari Rash, founder of GWA Wealth, breaks down why generic money advice often falls short for women with income, savings, investments, taxes, goals, family responsibilities, and real-life complexity. You'll learn: why making good money and having a plan for your money are not the same thing how common financial rules can keep you stuck and what to ask instead when basic advice no longer fits your life. Because women do not need watered-down money advice. They need advice that actually accounts for the lives they are living. Money should not be managed by generic rules that were never built for your life. Money should be a tool that helps you live life on your terms.

Justin Vacula reacts to a viral Dave Ramsey Show clip where a caller says she has around $90,000 in student loan debt, has been with her boyfriend for six years, and says he will not propose until she is debt-free. He pays her rent, they've been together for six years, but Dave Ramsey and his co-host Jade says this isn't good enough. In this reaction, Justin responds to Dave Ramsey and Jade Warshaw telling the caller to “dump him,” calling the boyfriend toxic, and suggesting she "deserves" someone better. Jade Warshaw also calls living together before marriage "a bum idea." Justin argues that the situation is more complicated than that. He questions why the boyfriend is being framed as the villain when he is already financially supporting the household and may simply want to avoid taking on legal and financial liability before marriage.

Joseph S. Moore is a historian, author, and investor who spent a decade reading nearly every piece of financial advice published in America over the past 300 years, testing those lessons himself, and distilling them into his HarperCollins book How to Get Rich in American History, selected by Malcolm Gladwell and Adam Grant for their Next Big Idea Club.Episode Sponsor: Fiscal AI is a modern data terminal that gives investors instant access to twenty years of financials, earnings transcripts, and extensive segment and KPI data—use my link for a two-week free trial plus 15% off: https://fiscal.ai/talkingbillions/3:00 — Joseph's working-class South Carolina roots: mother born into a home with no flush toilet, father's family led the famous Gastonia mill strike in the 1920s, grew up in a household that voted communist.5:00 — Bogumil shares his parallel experience growing up in communist Poland and watching the country transform after embracing free markets.8:00 — The church basement class that saved Joseph from the 2008 crisis: bought a house as a grad student, a Dave Ramsey budgeting class revealed the danger, sold the house one week before the market froze.11:00 — The American Dream: people have declared it dead since the 1670s. Joseph introduces "Big Woe" — the despair industrial complex of journalists, politicians, and academics incentivized to sell doom.17:00 — Upward mobility data: in the 1800s, 20-30% moved from bottom to middle class; today, 60% escape the bottom, 10% go all the way to the top. "We have more economic mobility than we've ever had."23:00 — Dismantling financial shibboleths: compound interest only recently became powerful (people didn't live long enough), stocks didn't reliably beat bonds until after WWII, real estate stayed flat for a century in most cities.31:00 — Old ideas in new packaging: latte factor advice dates to the 1800s, crypto mirrors 10,000 self-issued currencies before the Civil War ("all self-issued currencies eventually go to zero"), Airbnb reimagines the oldest mortgage payoff strategy.37:00 — Fast time vs. slow time: most of life is lived in slow time — the daily decisions about career, marriage, savings that determine whether you can seize opportunities when fast time arrives. Story of Norman McGee buying foreclosed homes during the Depression.42:00 — Women as unsung financial heroes throughout American history. Agnes Taylor, a beat cop's wife, paid off a New York brownstone by renting rooms. "Capitalism is a team sport. Marriage is a superpower."51:00 — Hope as a financial asset: CFPB studies found a positive attitude plus saving habit outpredicted income and inheritance for financial wellness.56:00 — FIRE movement as the "crossfit of personal finance" — financially independent people throughout history only thrived when they found meaningful work to do.1:04:00 — Generational wealth doesn't last: 90% of top 1%'s grandchildren are not wealthy. "Tutors outperform trust funds." Human capital is 30x the value of the stock market.1:09:00 — Joseph's definition of success: a great marriage, raising good kids, getting good enough at something that people trust you.

Harry Styles' taxi cab engagement theory, the latest on Rebel Wilson's lawsuits, and Meryl Streep's pay rise energy. Hi friends! One of the biggest engagement stories of 2026 has landed: Harry Styles and Zoe Kravitz are betrothed after just eight months of dating. We break down the details and ask if the Sex & the City Taxi Cab Theory has anything to do with it. We reference the Harry Styles and Zane Lowe interview from earlier this year. This week, Taylor Swift was featured in The New York Times Magazine as one of the 30 Greatest Living American Songwriters. The NYT polled more than 250 music insiders and gathered six Times critics to select the songwriters. We question some contradicting statements. Never has an Australian film been faced with this much controversy. After first speaking about this in 2025, we have more to unpack about the messy lawsuits around Rebel Wilson's directorial debut, The Deb, which has bombed its Australian cinematic release. While doing press for Devil Wears Prada 2, Meryl Streep revealed on the US Today Show that she asked to double her salary in 2006 for the first film. We discuss our own thoughts around pay transparency and advocating for your worth. We reference Anna Mackenzie's substack, and her Shoot Your Shot Wednesday initiative. In Bookmarked, Maggie shares a recent Modern Love x NYT episode (and shares a hack), and Jas recommends The Pitt on HBO Max. Thanks for listening!

What's the best financial advice you've ever received? Not the trendiest tip or the hottest stock pick; what's the wisdom that actually holds up over a lifetime?

In this co-hosted episode, Travis is joined in studio by his producer Eric for a rapid-fire breakdown of famous pastors' and Christian leaders' quotes about money, generosity, and prosperity. Together, they react in real time, call out bad theology, laugh their way through some wild one-liners, and use the conversation to unpack how faith, finances, and common sense should actually intersect in real life. On this episode we talk about: Why “money is a bad master, good servant” still holds up—and where “steward it for eternity” loses people How misquoting “money is the root of all evil” has damaged a healthy view of building wealth Prosperity gospel red flags, from “Jesus as genie” teaching to sow-a-seed televangelist gimmicks The danger of paraphrased or AI-mashed “quotes” online and why fact-checking matters Why you don't have to choose between being wealthy and having meaningful relationships Top 3 Takeaways A healthy money mindset sees money as a tool and servant, not a master; it's neutral until you assign it purpose. Prosperity teaching that turns God into a vending machine—“give to get rich”—is manipulative and spiritually and financially harmful. Misquotes and bad theology around money (“money is the root of all evil”) keep people broke and confused, so you need to fact-check sources and own your personal philosophy about wealth. Notable Quotes “Money is a bad master, good servant.” “You're not going to get any richer by touching a screen—or praying a prayer.” “Money only solves your money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems with money in the bank.” Connect with Travis Chappell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/travischappell Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell Other: https://travischappell.com Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.

Brian and Jeremiah dive one of the biggest questions investors should be asking: how do you know if your financial advisor is truly working in your best interest—or quietly profiting from hidden fees? This show starts by breaking down fiduciary vs commission-based advice, why transparency matters, and what listeners should ask to uncover all-in advisory costs—including mutual fund expense ratios, 12b-1 fees, and confusing share class structures like A, B, and C shares. Plus, practical call-in planning: a homeowner selling property after decades in California learns how the $500,000 home-sale capital gains exclusion works for married couples, how improvements affect cost basis, and why moving states or turning a home into a rental can change tax outcomes. Finally, the hosts cover gig-economy tax basics—how DoorDash/1099 income gets taxed, the role of Schedule C, and why tracking deductions and mileage is essential.
