Koľko bude stáť elektrina, plyn a teplo na budúci rok? Otázky, ktoré trápia domácnosti a žiadajú na ne odpoveď od vlády už niekoľko týždňov. Najnovšie koalícia predstavila riešenia pri elektrine, ktorá by nemala stúpnuť ani o cent. Otázniky však stále visia nad plynom. Jeho komoditná časť, ktorá tvorí zhruba dve tretiny konečnej ceny, totiž stúpla o 50 percent. Vo výsledku tak na faktúrach môžu ľudia uvidieť navýšenie o štvrtinu až tretinu. Ak vláda nič neurobí. Plošné dotácie ju však môžu vyjsť draho. „Len vlani ju dotovanie plynu stálo vyše miliardu eur,“ hovorí energo analytik Radovan Potočár. Ak by pomoc pokračovala, dá sa podľa neho rátať s výdavkom v stovkách miliónov eur. Neisté sú aj otázky okolo dodávky či platby za plyn. Gazprombanka, cez ktorú transakcie v rubľoch prebiehali, sa totiž dostala na sankčný zoznam. Koľko nás teda bude stáť elektrina a plyn na budúci rok a je možné, že plynu nebude dosť? A aké má vláda plány ohľadom ďalšieho jadrového zdroja? Je pravda, že ho budú stavať Juhokórejčania? V Indexe na otázky Evy Frantovej odpovedá energo analytik a šéf portálu Energie-portal.sk Radovan Potočár. _ Ak máte pre nás spätnú väzbu, odkaz alebo nápad, napíšte nám na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠podcastindex@sme.sk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Odoberajte aj týždenný ekonomický newsletter Index na ⁠sme.sk/indexodber⁠ – Všetky podcasty denníka SME nájdete na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠sme.sk/podcasty⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Ďakujeme, že počúvate podcast Index.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Struggling with sleep apnea or snoring? Learn how a simple technique can improve your sleep quality and reduce disruptive noises.   I had a conversation with Alex Neist, the founder of Hostage Tape. He shared his personal journey with nasal breathing and mouth taping. He explained how it can improve sleep quality, reduce snoring, and boost energy levels. Intrigued by his experience, I decided to give it a try.   Like many others, I was a mouth breather. This can lead to various health issues, including sleep apnea and snoring. Nasal breathing, on the other hand, is more natural and offers many benefits. It filters the air, humidifies it, and can even boost our immune system. Mouth taping is a simple technique that can help us retrain our bodies to breathe through our nose.   Key Takeaways:   Consider consulting with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.   Mouth breathing can have negative health consequences   It's important to be mindful of our breathing habits throughout the day, especially during sleep.   Resources:   Alex Neist is an entrepreneur, health advocate, and former professional quarterback. Known for his resilience and problem-solving mindset, Neist's personal journey with sleep issues and snoring sparked his entrepreneurial spirit. His commitment to finding effective solutions to health challenges led him to create Hostage Tape, a product that aims to improve sleep quality by addressing the issue of mouth breathing.   Website https://hostagetape.com/    @alexneist (IG)  https://www.instagram.com/alexneist/    @hostagetape (IG) https://www.instagram.com/hostagetape/#  _________________________________________ Host Nate Palmer The founder of The Million Dollar Body and Author of "The Million Dollar Body Method", Nate has been in the industry of coaching over 15 years and has worked with over 1000 clients personally.   Nate Palmer's Website: https://milliondollarbodylabs.com/    "The Million Dollar Body Method" by Nate Palmer: http://getnatesbook.com   Lean Energy Stack: https://milliondollarbodylabs.com/pages/lean   @_milliondollarbody (IG) https://www.instagram.com/_milliondollarbody

Ľudia na Slovensku si začali oveľa viac uvedomovať, že mať finančnú rezervu je nevyhnutné. „Dostať sa k vlastnému bývaniu je finančne náročné a pre mnohých ľudí je to najväčší výdavok v živote. Preto sa na tento krok treba začať dopredu pripravovať.

Alex Neist, the man behind Hostage Tape. This ecommerce marvel is radically improving sleep quality, one mouth at a time. Alex has already skyrocketed Hostage Tape to 7 figures a month and will crush 8 figures in 2023. But don't mistake Alex for a one-trick pony. This isn't his first entrepreneurial endeavor. He previously devoted 16 years to a sports video analytics company, bootstrapping it from scratch before making a graceful exit. During his tenure, he pioneered the use of humans to tag games, making them easily searchable for coaches and athletes - kind of like a human Google, but for sports. Before his business feats, Alex sported the helmet and shoulder pads, gracing the field as a professional quarterback in the Arenafootball league. When he wasn't calling plays on the field, he was coaching them, with a coaching career spanning over 15 years. Whether it's strategizing in business, on the football field, or in the realm of sleep, Alex Neist loves traveling the world looking for his next adventure with his wife and 2 kids.   In this episode, Brad and Alex discuss his brand and the personal events in his life that motivated him to create this company.   Bombs: Shift your perspective.

Alex Neist (@alexneist), an ex-Arena Football League quarterback and coach, transitioned from sports to entrepreneurship as the founder and CEO of Hostage Tape, a company focused on improving sleep quality. His journey in business was inspired by his parents' encouragement, the principles of Stoicism, and key insights from authors like Chris Voss and Robert Cialdini. Neist values emotional intelligence, effective communication, and the art of negotiation in both his personal and professional life. Under his leadership, Hostage Tape emphasizes the importance of detail in product development and marketing, learning from early challenges in manufacturing and advertising. Neist believes in giving his team autonomy and continuously seeks to improve through lessons learned from books like Voss's "Never Split the Difference."  His approach to building a strong network involves creating desirable products and reaching out to influential individuals. Neist trusts his instincts for business pivots and stays motivated by viewing challenges as opportunities for growth. What Alex and Travis discussed: Mouth breathing can significantly impact sleep quality and health. Alex went down a "rabbit hole" researching ways to address his snoring and poor sleep, eventually discovering mouth taping. This simple technique helped transform his sleep and energy levels. Building a successful business takes time and perseverance. Alex spent 16 years building his first company through constant failures and learning. This grit prepared him for the meteoric growth of his newest venture. Success is rarely overnight. Surrounding yourself with people on the path you want to be on is crucial. Alex  stresses finding mentors and examples that exemplify your vision and values rather than listening to naysayers without relevant experience. We become like those we surround ourselves with. Delegating tasks and responsibilities is key as a business scales. As Alex's company grew quickly, he focused on letting go of control by empowering his team to take on more. Learning to delegate instead of doing everything yourself is vital. Small problems can snowball into relationship breakdowns if not addressed. Something as simple as loud snoring compounded over the years for Alex, driving his wife out of their bedroom. This was a catalyst leading to their separation and divorce. We must proactively work on the small issues. This was a wide-ranging, vulnerable conversation with much to learn.

When building something that aligns with your passion, work can feel more like a joyful experience rather than chores.

You have to be careful when hiring new team members because if you get the wrong person in your company, they are like a virus and can spread negativity and toxicity very quickly, which is hard to eliminate.  So, ensure you find individuals who align with your desired company culture to enhance your scalability and growth. It's not enough to hire for skills. You need people who are passionate about your vision. Join the conversation with Alex Neist as he shares more about building a business that you are passionate about, taking care of yourself as an entrepreneur, and hiring the right people to propel your vision forward.  Alex is the founder of Hostage Tape and a former American football professional.

Francúzske ulice zachvátili v uplynulých týždňoch masívne protesty odborárov a pracujúcich. Dôvodom je dôchodková reforma prezidenta Emmanuela Macrona, ktorá okrem iného zvyšuje vek odchodu do dôchodku zo 62 na 64 rokov, a spôsob jej presadenia. V súvislosti s týmito udalosťami sme sa v Mudrovačke pozreli na stav dôchodkového systému vo Francúzsku, nevyhnutnosť reformy a jej budúcnosť. Dianie vo Francúzsku len podčiarkuje akútnosť neudržateľnosti priebežných penzijných schém, preto sme sa venovali aj možnostiam riešenia dôchodkovej otázky v starnúcej Európe.   Radoslav Kasík, Ján Jursa a Ján Tonka   Investujte s Finaxom jednoducho a online do obľúbených indexových fondov ETF už od 10 €.

Prepad hospodárskeho rastu a dvojciferný rast cien. Toto nám prognózuje na budúci rok Národná banka Slovenska. Čo to pre nás znamená? Čo znamenajú vyhlásenia premiéra, že našej ekonomike hrozí kolaps, ak medzitým poslanci v parlamente rozdávajú vyššie platy a rodinné balíčky, a inflácia sa vyšplhala už na viac ako 13 percent? Čo s tým môže vláda robiť? Aký rok nás to vlastne čaká? Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s viceguvernérom Národnej banky Slovenska Ľudovítom Ódorom.

„Nepanikáriť, výkyvy na finančných trhoch nie sú rizikom, ale istotou, učiť sa môžeme z takmer storočnej skúsenosti“, radí expert na investovanie Maroš Ovčarik. Čo robia také pohnuté časy, ako sú naše poznamenané pandémiou covidu a vojnou na Ukrajine, s peniazmi?   Vážna hospodárska recesia vo východnej Európe. Varuje pred ňou Medzinárodný menový fond. Naplniť sa má v prípade, ak Rusko zavedie embargo na dodávky plynu a ostatne krajiny sa s nami nepodelia o svoje zásoby. Akciové trhy už od začiatku roka prakticky len v prepade, inflácia naopak rastie – a prekonáva dvadsaťročné maximá; a rovnako úrokové sadzby. A malí investori si v mailových schránkach začínajú zvykať na správy typu – hodnota vášho portfólia klesla. Správy sa stávajú cyklickámi. Ako a kedy sa to skončí? Téma pre Maroša Ovčarika, experta na investovanie.   V podcaste sa dozviete, ako sa správať pri výrazných prepadoch na finančných trhoch, či akých chýb sa vyvarovať, aby to nebolo pre nás „drahé“.   V druhej časti podcastu sa pozrieme na projekt pomoci vojnovým utečencom z Ukrajiny. Pomoci, ktorá pamätá aj na „priateľskú oporu“. Práve o nej sú Buddíci pre Ukrajincov. So Zuzanou Ralbovskou.   Podcast pripravili Jaroslav Barborák a Braňo Dobšinský.

Exminister Robert Kaliňák bude stíhaný na slobode. Rozhodol o tom Najvyšší súd, ktorý ho po 23 dňoch prepustil z väzby. Trestné stíhanie však považuje vo všetkých bodoch za dôvodné. V podcaste budete počuť jeho konfrontáciu s novinármi po tom, ako sa dostal na slobodu.   A pozrieme sa tiež na pripravovanú reformu dôchodkov – štátnych i súkromných, ktorá je len ďalším z klinov tejto vládnej zostavy. Napriek tomu, že sa nachádza v jej programovom dokumente, jej podoba vyvoláva napätia. A rovno hrozbami koaličného veta.   Legislatívny návrh úprav v prvom pilieri – ako ho pripravil minister Krajniak zo Sme rodina – Sulíkovi liberáli tento týždeň síce podporili, no s podmienkou: ak sa koalícia nedopracuje k ústavnej ochrane dôchodkov, s ich hlasmi nemožno počítať. Ako to dopadne? Téma pre Petra Cmoreja z SaS.   Podcast pripravil Jaroslav Barborák.
