    In this episode, Megan and Erin dive into practical financial literacy topics students need to understand before and during college. Their discussion centers on managing money in an increasingly cashless world, avoiding common student loan mistakes, and building credit responsibly. Using real-life examples from their own families and experiences with students, they highlight how small financial decisions in college can have long-term consequences. Key Tips & Takeaways (with Examples) Know what student loan money can and cannot be used for Student loan funds can often cover living expenses such as rent, groceries, or transportation, and Erin notes that some students even use loan refunds to buy a car. However, these choices increase total debt, and student loans cannot be discharged in bankruptcy, making overspending especially risky. Understand 529 plan restrictions Erin explains that 529 money must be used for qualified education expenses and properly documented. Using a 529 account without matching receipts can cause reimbursement problems and potential tax issues. Be cautious with cashless payment apps Apps like Apple Pay, Venmo, and Cash App make spending feel frictionless, which can lead students to lose track of where their money is going. Erin points out that these platforms may not offer the same protections as credit cards if money is sent to the wrong person or a transaction is disputed. Local banks still serve a purpose Even in a cashless society, having a local bank can help students deposit cash, resolve account issues in person, or access short-term support. Erin mentions tools like Greenlight as a way parents can help students manage spending while learning financial independence. Debit cards vs. credit cards Debit cards pull directly from checking accounts, so overspending can immediately drain funds or trigger overdraft fees. Credit cards, when used carefully, offer more fraud protection and help establish a credit history. Build credit with small, intentional habits Erin recommends using a low-limit credit card for a recurring bill such as a streaming service or phone payment. Paying that balance in full each month builds credit without encouraging unnecessary spending. She shares a personal story about buying a house to illustrate how strong credit history impacts major life purchases. Set realistic expectations for spending money Megan shares that her son spent about $12 per week while on a campus food plan, showing how limited discretionary spending can still work. (This is not typical; her daughter definitely spent more!) They contrast this with examples of students overspending on food delivery services like DoorDash, emphasizing the need for clear budgeting conversations. This episode helps families understand how everyday financial choices—payment apps, loan usage, and credit cards—can shape a student's financial future, and sets the stage for deeper conversations around responsible money management in college.

    In this episode of the Federal Help Center Podcast, Colin Nchako challenges small business owners to stop hiding their skills and start monetizing them—now. From programming language courses and AI content to trade training and workforce development, Colin explains why the fastest path to new contracts isn't always chasing something new, but packaging what you already know in a way the government and private sector will pay for. If you've been waiting for the "perfect" contract, this episode shows why that mindset is costing you money. Colin breaks down how he turned professional training into a repeatable revenue stream—starting with a small, one-day engagement and leveraging it into bigger opportunities. He walks through how skills like IT, graphic design, carpentry, leadership, and workforce training can be positioned for state procurement, Job Corps, workforce development programs, and recurring training needs. The takeaway is simple: training is renewable, scalable, and one of the most overlooked ways to grow your portfolio without abandoning your core business. Key Takeaways You don't need new skills—you need to package and position the ones you already have Training and workforce development contracts are renewable and scalable Small wins (even one-day trainings) can be leveraged into larger, higher-paying opportunities If you want to learn more about the community and to join the webinars go to: https://federalhelpcenter.com/  Website: https://govcongiants.org/  Connect with Encore Funding: http://govcongiants.org/funding

    In this repost episode of the Awake & Winning Podcast, Kaylor Betts sits down with Jessica Bennett for a Sovereign Session that connects health, truth, and personal responsibility. Jessica shares how COVID-19 became the "straw that broke the camel's back," pushing her from compliance to questioning the narrative—and how her medical background helped her spot what wasn't adding up. She opens up about healing her Vermont-rooted "farm-to-table" foundations, recovering from Boise-based life stress, and navigating Hashimoto's disease through root-cause strategies, lifestyle shifts, and long-term consistency. The conversation lands on sovereignty: how to reclaim agency over your body, your beliefs, and your income—by building a skills-based online business that creates real impact.     Episode Highlights: awakening moment, propaganda vs truth, traditional values, root-cause healing, autoimmune recovery, stress and nervous system, clean living foundations, perimenopause and hormones, women's health education gaps, body fat and brain fog fixes, coaching as sovereignty, pay-to-pay-attention mindset     Takeaways:   Question narratives without outsourcing your intuition Genetics aren't destiny when environment and habits change Sleep, food, movement, light, and stress are non-negotiables Healing is layered and takes consistency over perfection Women deserve real education on hormones and perimenopause Paying for support increases commitment and follow-through Build sovereignty by turning your skill into a clear solution     If this episode lit a fire under you, don't keep it to yourself.

    What if everything you believed about how hiring works… was only half the story? The job market has always had rules. Apply. Interview. Get picked. Simple, right? But something is quietly changing beneath the surface — and it's making a lot of people uncomfortable. Job seekers are now paying recruiters. Not to polish their résumé. Not to prep for interviews. They're paying someone to pitch them — to walk into companies and say, this person is worth your time. Is that exploitation? Is it strategy? Or is it just the job market finally dropping the pretense that the best candidate always wins? In this special report, we're pulling back the curtain on reverse recruiting, the rise of AI-managed job applications, and a parallel labor economy that's already reshaping how opportunity gets distributed — whether you're paying attention or not. This one hits differently. If you work in recruiting, lead a hiring team, or you're out there trying to land your next role — this conversation is already affecting you. You just might not know it yet. The question we're asking this episode? What happens when visibility becomes something you can buy? The answer might change how you see everything. ...

    Want your kids to grow into confident money decision-makers without turning every dinner conversation into a financial lecture? In this roundtable episode, Joe sits down with Livia (“Liv”) Roder, host of the Liv Lab Podcast, Karen Holland of GiftingSense.org, and John Lanza, host of the Art of Allowance Podcast to explore what actually helps kids understand money before the stakes get big. Instead of theory, this discussion focuses on real moments when money suddenly becomes real: college price tags, house-hunting sticker shock, allowances that run out too fast, and purchases that teach better lessons than any lecture ever could. The panel shares practical ways families can build financial confidence through everyday decisions, honest conversations, and a willingness to let kids learn by doing. What the Stacking Benjamins “Confident Explorer” will gain from this episode: How to talk about money naturally so kids see it as a life skill, not a stressful taboo topic Why modeling everyday behavior matters more than formal “money talks” A simple shift from “Can I have it?” to “Is it worth it?” that builds independent thinking How small spending mistakes become powerful teaching moments when handled without shame Ways to introduce big topics like college costs gradually so kids feel informed instead of overwhelmed Real-life money lessons that sparked the conversation: Livia's moments when money suddenly felt real, from college forms to realizing savings aren't just “bank numbers” Karen Holland's memorable eighth-grade back-to-school budget experiment Early allowance experiences that helped connect choices with consequences Why kids absorb far more from overheard conversations and daily habits than parents expect Practical strategies parents can use right away: Starting with simple allowance systems or “jars” to visualize spending, saving, and giving Karen's “Does It Make Sense?” pause to slow impulsive purchases Joe's “circle back” technique, revisiting purchases later to reflect without criticism Letting kids fail safely so regret becomes learning instead of embarrassment Helping kids split costs or contribute toward purchases to create ownership Navigating tougher parenting questions: Should kids see financial stress, or should parents shield them? How to practice age-appropriate honesty without creating anxiety Why financial jargon like FAFSA or taxes can unintentionally intimidate teens Bringing kids into real financial conversations so they build confidence early Money challenges unique to today's kids: Teaching spending awareness in a tap-to-pay, frictionless world Cash vs. cards vs. apps and how each changes behavior Building a “pause habit” before spending when transactions feel invisible If you could teach just one money skill… The panel compares their top priorities: Awareness of cash flow and where money actually goes Thinking before buying instead of reacting emotionally Paying yourself first and building saving habits early Plus, a little basement fun along the way: Favorite purchases that truly felt worth it (from snowboards to board games to a Kindle) Stories that prove money lessons stick best when tied to real experiences Resources and next steps from each guest, including tools, calculators, and upcoming episodes This episode reinforces a core Stacking Benjamins idea: kids don't learn money through perfect decisions. They learn through guided experience, honest conversations, and the freedom to practice while the stakes are still small.

    South Carolina is one of the fastest-growing states in America — so why are politicians still writing billion-dollar checks to corporations? New data from U-Haul and the United States Census Bureau consistently rank South Carolina among the top inbound move destinations — alongside Texas and Florida. Businesses are coming. People are coming. Growth is exploding. So why is Columbia considering another $200 million for Scout Motors, after already handing over massive incentives? Congressman Ralph Norman says enough is enough — calling for an end to what he labels “corporate bailouts.” Meanwhile, the real debate may be about energy. With massive untapped natural gas reserves off the Carolina coast and renewed federal support under Donald Trump, should South Carolina drill, lower energy costs, and recruit data centers instead of fighting over electricity shortages? Is Columbia behind the times? Are politicians chasing ribbon cuttings instead of taxpayers' interests? And is South Carolina missing a once-in-a-generation energy opportunity?

Kyle has emerged as one of the sharpest and most empirically grounded voices on U.S.-China technology relations, and he holds the all-time record for the most namechecks on Sinica's “Paying it forward” segment. We use his recent Financial Times op-ed on “The Great Reversal” in global technology flows and his longer High-Capacity essay on re-coupling as jumping-off points for a wide-ranging conversation about where China now sits at the global technological frontier, why the dominant decoupling narrative misses powerful structural forces pulling the two economies back together, and what all of this means for innovation, choke points, and the global tech ecosystem.4:35 – How Kyle became Kyle Chan: from Chicago School economics to development, railways, and systems thinking 12:50 – The Great Reversal: China at the technological frontier, from megawatt EV charging to LFP batteries 17:59 – The electro-industrial tech stack and China's overlapping, mutually reinforcing tech ecosystems 22:40 – Industrial strategy and time horizons: patience, persistence, and the long arc of China's auto industry 33:45 – Re-coupling under pressure: Waymo and Zeekr, Unitree robots, and the structural forces binding the two economies 40:22 – The gravity model: can political distance overwhelm technological mass? 47:01 – What China still wants from the U.S.: Cursor, GitHub, talent, and the AI brain drain 51:52 – Weaponized interdependence and the danger of securitizing everything 57:30 – Firm-level adaptation: HeyGen, Manus, and the playbook for de-sinification 1:02:58 – The view from the middle: Gulf states, Southeast Asia, and India as geopolitical arbitrageurs 1:10:18 – Engineering resilience: what policymakers are getting wrong about the systems they're buildingPaying it forward: Katrina Northrop; Grace Shao and her AI Proem newsletterRecommendations:Kyle: Wired Magazine's Made in China newsletter (by Zeyi Yang and Louise Matsakis); The Wire China Kaiser: The Wall Dancers: Searching for Freedom and Connection on the Chinese Internet by Yi-Ling LiuSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    I am getting sick of the topic because I am watching it get kookified before my eyes. I saw the same thing happen to 911 Truth. By the way, we just reached 200 Restacks on Empire Unmasked. If you have not seen or shared that yet you should start on it. The Epstein saga has reached McCarthy like hysteria where anyone “in the file” regardless of the context is being subjected to a witch hunt. Anyone except the ones who deserve the witch hunt. Now what are the odds of that? Epstein's cronies are still in power. This IS the Deep State.I kind of enjoy watching my cut-and-pasters get wrecked when they are questioned about Epstein and they cannot back up what they say. Got a new one here. I already did debate Tracey in spaces and he lost badly. (find a link to that later) And I never disagreed with debating as I was never even asked. That guy doesn't think a 52 year having sex with a 14 year old is pedophilia. I really doesn't matter what you want to call it. Sex and sex acts with a minor is illegal. Prostitution is also illegal. Sex with girls 15 or younger unless you are within two years of their age is especially illegal. Epstein was 52 when he had sex with multiple 14 and 15 year olds. That should have been 30 years in jail for even one count. And second degree felonies for the 16 year olds and 17 year old. The argument is that simple it takes about 1 minute. As far as his network that takes more time but you have all seen me lay it out before each person has a different paper trail. The girls were told to tell Epstein that they were 18 by their recruiter so he would have plausible deniability. Let's not play stupid. That's like paying a pimp instead of paying a girl directly and saying well its not prostitution because you didn't give any money to her. You know they're in high school when that's where you had people looking for them.The other weasel move is to say well he only held a vibrator to a naked 14 year old's vagina, but that's not “sex”. Well guess what, that is still illegal. And carries 5 to 30 years in prison. Paying them makes the Lewd or Lascivious Battery prostitution which only adds time for that too. I am only giving you Florida law to keep it simple. Epstein should have been locked away in 2008 until 2038 minimal. However, I want Ian and Whitney to debate Tracey because they don't actually know these cases and they will lose. I'm not doing the work for them just so they can copy me again and then go on Tucker and Rogan while I get passed over again. I'm the one doing all the original work and the one being canceled defamed and losing money. They've never been canceled or de-banked from anything. Why do I have to take all the heat and do all the work and then also be the debate mercenary too? I'll step in when these grifters recognize the truth.Am I salty? Damn right I am, and why shouldn't I be? I had my life turned upside down! And then I just get passed over. They can pay me. I'm sick of being used by people. It's funny NOW people want to acknowledge who knows the most about this topic and who put it all together. Nah f**k that. I'm on team Tracey when it comes to exposing these grifters. I'm not going to win their battles for them so that they can benefit while I live hand to mouth. They can all kiss my Southern ass.Why am I the only one being censored? Because I'm the only one whose a threat to the system. They do not understand what this was. It is just a bunch of disconnected sloganeering. This is exactly why I rarely talk about JFK. I already explained RFK and 911 and got no recognition. They just girft off my finding and act like everyone knew it all along. But they didn't. How many times have you heard people say jack Ruby was named Jacob Rubenstein? That wasn't common knowledge at all. I might change my mind. But right now I'm like screw these clowns. I'm focused on the Iran war and my island sinking into the ocean. I'm tired of people taking all the benefit and recognition while I get all the heat. Where my million dollar payout? I cant even use a PayPal or coinbase. No YouTube no Venmo, or Vimeo, Instagram etc etc why is that? Why am I censored and they are not? Because I know what I'm talking about and can back it up. They just memorize the conclusions. I'm a threat to the system. Clowns are a limited hangout.If others are going to pretend to experts then let them do the debates and heavy lifting. Why am I only doing the work and not the reward?I'll come in at the end like final boss and destroy everyone. But I'm not rescuing these clowns until after they're exposed.People saying Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell were body swapped, that they ate babies or built a secret lab to farm human body parts in New Mexico, dissolved bones in sulfuric acid etc sound like Candace Owens trying to investigate Charlie Kirk. Ive dealt with the kook movement enough regarding 911. I don't have patience or energy for it any more. Nor the other side denying pedophilia or blaming Russia. I just want to wash my hands of it. Not forever but I need a break from all the stupid because it makes me ill. I'm going back to bear hunting and discussing the War of Northern aggression. I'm not going to try to shout over all the noise. I don't have time for that. going blind in one eye makes one realize how limited our time is and I am not going to waste the time i have left arguing with donkeys or rescuing donkeys. There is too much I want to SEE. Substack will still have Epstein news because its a paid service. But X can ride a fat one. By the way I got locked out of the new Facebook. It needs a phone number to verify logging in which I do not have as that page was created in 2009. You can no longer just make new pages either as they require photo ID to make a page now and I am banned as is my immediate family. I will try to find a work around.Wexner has to talk to congress tomorrow. Be sure to subscribe because I am only going to be addressing that to subs.

    Data centres have become one of the most contentious issue in US power markets. The question of who will pay for the new generation and grid upgrades needed to keep them running has been soaring up the political agenda, and attracting attention in the White House.Host Ed Crooks is joined on this episode by Brandon Oyer, Head of Americas Power & Water at Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Vince Parisi, President & COO at NIPSCO, the Northern Indiana Public Service Company, to discuss a solution.Together, they unpack their new agreement to develop power capacity in northern Indiana, which they say will enable AWS to add 2.4 gigawatts of data centre capacity without sticking everyone else with the bill. Data centres are not just for AI: they are the “invisible digital backbone” behind everything from banking to healthcare to emergency services, Brandon says. But he also acknowledges that local communities around data centre developments are right to ask hard questions about costs. NIPSCO and other utilities agree. Vince says they welcome the economic activity and tax revenues that new data centres bring, but the goal for the electricity system is to ensure customers “aren't paying for it.” AWS and NIPSCO say their agreement, which they announced last November, will achieve that goal. In fact, they expect to save customers money, unlocking $1 billion in customer savings over 15 years.So what actually makes this deal different, and is it a template others can copy? Brandon and Vince walk through the ring-fenced structure (a separate GenCo that funds and builds generation), the performance incentives, and why both sides landed on a 15-year commitment even as data-centre hardware cycles every few years. You'll also hear why AWS doesn't see its data centres as truly flexible loads, how the GenCo model let NIPSCO lock in long-lead equipment early, and what plugging this capacity into the MISO power market means for the reliability of electricity supplies.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you listen on Apple Podcasts, a quick 5-star rating helps a ton.We start with the WR decision tree and what the passing game looks like if Wan'Dale Robinson stays versus if the Giants need a real replacement plan. Then we debate tight end: can Theo Johnson be trusted, or does this offense need a proven target to stabilize the middle of the field? After that, it's the trenches—RT contingency planning if Jermaine Eluemunor isn't back, plus guard and center scenarios, and why building a playable line beats chasing one “name” signing. We also hit the practical depth needs at QB3 and RB if roster moves force the Giants to add cheap, reliable insurance.Listener Q&A: Would you rather pay for a pass-catching TE (A) or invest that money in OL (B)?Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us a text: what's your one must-sign offensive free agent?Send a textSupport the show

    The U.S. job market is a study in contradictions. While a new report shows January saw the highest level of layoffs since 2009—driven by corporate downsizing and AI integration—the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a surprising gain of 130,000 jobs. Meanwhile, recent data revisions suggest that hiring over the past two years was significantly weaker than previously thought, with workers and employers starting to question the reliability of official figures. WSJ reporters Justin Lahart and Lindsay Ellis discuss listener questions on the state of hiring, and whether the labor market is better or worse than the official data suggests.

    Nothing says romance like a heated debate about the 4% rule. Live from the basement (which suspiciously resembles YouTube headquarters), Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, Neighbor Doug, and the panel celebrate Valentine's Day weekend the only way Stackers know how: by putting their favorite financial ideas on the hot seat. This isn't a polite discussion. It's a rapid fire "love it or leave it" showdown where popular money strategies either get roses or get shown the door. On the chopping block: Paying off a low interest mortgage early: financial freedom or opportunity cost disaster? The FIRE movement: empowering clarity or accidental misery? Lifestyle inflation: natural evolution or silent wealth killer? Real estate as passive income: dream scenario or second job in disguise? The 4% rule: reliable rule of thumb or outdated security blanket? Budgeting apps: behavior changer or digital guilt machine? Expect strong opinions. Expect pushback. Expect OG to bring spreadsheets to a knife fight. Expect Doug to stir the pot. And expect at least one take that makes you argue out loud in your car. Along the way, the crew swaps Valentine's Day plans, reviews survey results from listeners, and throws down in a trivia challenge that could shake up the leaderboard. With margin call rules in play, nobody's position is safe. What You'll Discover: Which popular financial strategies hold up under scrutiny and which ones deserve a breakup Why smart people disagree about mortgage payoff strategies Whether the FIRE movement creates freedom or just different problems The truth about lifestyle inflation and when it's okay versus when it's dangerous Why real estate investing is rarely as passive as it sounds Whether the 4% rule still works or needs serious revision If budgeting apps actually help or just make you feel guilty How to question your own financial assumptions without second guessing everything This Episode Is For You If: You want to understand WHY you believe what you believe about money You're tired of one-size-fits-all financial advice You enjoy hearing smart people debate and disagree respectfully You've been following certain money rules without questioning if they fit YOUR life You believe the most loving thing you can do for your financial plan is challenge it This episode is for anyone who doesn't just want answers but wants to understand the thinking behind them.
