Climate disruptions and growing risk are upending insurance markets, leading many insurers to abandon parts of the country all together. Due to fires, floods and other extreme events, more and more homeowners are facing rapidly rising premiums or being dropped from their insurance plans altogether. Increasing numbers of homeowners are taking refuge in the state insurance plans of last resort, straining the program resources. For homeowners, whose house is often their biggest financial asset, this creates a huge financial risk.  So what should people do to evaluate climate risks and insurance availability during their housing search? And how can governments help insurers weather the increasing frequency of climate-induced disasters so they can continue to underwrite our homes? Guests: Rachel Cleetus, Senior Policy Director, Union of Concerned Scientists Claire O'Connor, Los Angeles real estate agent and homeowner Dave Jones, Director, Climate Risk Initiative at the Center for Law, Energy & the Environment, UC Berkeley  This episode also includes a news feature produced by Camryn Sanchez of KJZZ in Phoenix.

When you need real talk and real data on the glamping industry, there's one person you call — and her name is Shari Heilala. In this episode, I sit down with the “godmother of glamping” for a deep dive into Sage Outdoor Advisory's just-released Q2 USA Glamping Market Insights Report — the most comprehensive data set on the U.S. glamping market to date. We unpack how Shari and her team are filling the gaping holes in industry data with hard-earned, operator-grade insights — from average daily retail rates (spoiler: domes are leading the pack at $257/night) to the surprising rise of budget-minded cabin stays. We explore the methodology behind their research, what types of properties made the cut (and why backyard yurts didn't), and how design decisions, geography, and hospitality strategy are influencing returns in the outdoor space. You'll also hear Shari's reflections on the rise of hard-sided structures, her take on the next evolution of glamping (hint: it's all about service), and how proximity to national parks and airports materially impacts revenue potential. We also chat through: Why occupancy is the next frontier in outdoor data reporting What surprised Shari most by region and unit type How to spot saturated markets — and what it takes to stand out Whether prefab vs. stick-built tells a meaningful data story yet Why land — not your unit type — might be your biggest asset …and so much more This conversation is equal parts masterclass and myth-buster. All right friends, without further ado, get ready to meet Shari.

It comes as the Coalition has confirmed it won't be implementing a recommendation from the Judicial Council to increase personal injury pay-outs by 17%. According to the Alliance for Insurance Reform, providers have avoided €76m in legal fees in just the last year by availing of the Injuries Resolutions Board. Clare-based Retail Excellence CEO and Owner of Willow's Boutique in Ennis Jean McCabe says these savings are not being passed on to local businesses.

The cost of insurances have shot up recently; Stats NZ figures show as at March last year house insurance was up almost 25%, contents insurance up about 28% and car insurance up almost 23% compared to the previous year. Some companies offering health insurance as part of employment packages are looking to ditch or downgrade their cover as costs go up. Southern Cross had about 955,000 members last financial year or about 60% of Aotearoa's health insurance market by customer numbers.

Oil prices rallied following Israeli attacks on Iranian nuclear and military targets, but just as quickly reversed after the US bombed three of Iran's nuclear enrichment facilities. War premiums were mostly erased after US President Donald Trump said Israel and Iran agreed to a ceasefire.  Jeff Mower, director of Americas oil news, speaks about the price swings, US crude production growth, global shipping rates, and nuclear deal hopes with oil futures editor Chris van Moessner, policy editor Kate Winston and head of Americas freight markets Kristen Hays.

In Part 3 of Episode 271, Chris McGill (aka Chris_HOJ) joins Joe Poirot, Leighton Sheldon, and Jeremy to explore the nuances of card value in today's hobby. The conversation kicks off with the rising PSA 10 premiums and questions whether today's multipliers — often 5x, 10x, or more — are truly justified by the cards themselves. The panel dives into the psychology behind paying up for a label, how investor-driven logic has reshaped grading expectations, and whether lower-grade cards with better eye appeal are getting overlooked. We revisit the philosophy of buy the card, not the slab, asking how often that advice is followed versus just repeated. Other topics include how certain grading companies handle centering vs. surface, the “slippery slope” of overpaying for perfection, the difference between true scarcity and population scarcity, and the role of context when chasing high-grade copies of vintage or modern cards. Each week we tackle hot hobby headlines with a rotating panel of hobbyists, taking your questions and comments! We are likely to go into overtime so join us live grab your favorite beverage and snacks and bring your questions and comments as they will be in play.

Nearly 80% of Americans are dissatisfied with the cost and coverage provided by their healthcare coverage.

Most countries have accumulated “huge debt loads that weigh on the entire system,” according to BlackRock Vice Chairman Philipp Hildebrand, who said there's a sense that rates are edging up. Hildebrand added that "sustained higher growth would be the best way to deal with the debt and deficit problems in combination with reasonable budgetary policy”. In an interview on The Pulse with Francine Lacqua, Hildebrand said "the last thing you want is questions around the sanctity of the sovereign signature”. When Moody’s Ratings downgraded the US in the middle of May — becoming the last of the three big credit rating companies to lower its ratings from the highest level — it warned that the US's fiscal deficit, government debt and interest burden would all rise over the coming years, the latest sign of growing fears about Washington’s fiscal position.

Recently, Bruce shared a story that perfectly illustrates unexpected life challenges—his basement flooded, turning a peaceful Easter weekend into an emergency cleanup session. Just as unexpected problems can flood your home, unanswered financial questions can flood your business strategy, especially questions like: "Can you deduct life insurance premiums?" https://www.youtube.com/live/crKKtLvZ44k Tax questions, much like sudden home repairs, can disrupt your carefully planned financial landscape. Whether it's water damage or unclear tax regulations, not addressing the problem can lead to costly mistakes down the road. Today, Bruce and I aim to clear up one of these significant financial uncertainties for business owners. Why Understanding Life Insurance Deductions MattersUnderstanding the Deductibility of Life Insurance PremiumsCan You Deduct Life Insurance PremiumsThe Supreme Court's Stance and Its ImplicationsStrategic Ways to Indirectly Deduct PremiumsAvoiding Short-Term Tax MistakesContracts vs. Accounts: Ensuring Long-Term CertaintyNavigating Complexity with Professional HelpThe Strategic Power of Life Insurance PremiumsBook A Strategy Call Why Understanding Life Insurance Deductions Matters The question "Can you deduct life insurance premiums?" isn't just a minor tax issue—it's central to building an efficient, effective, and robust financial strategy. Life insurance policies are powerful financial tools that, when used correctly, can significantly enhance your financial well-being. However, misunderstandings about their tax implications can lead to missed opportunities or even costly errors. In this detailed article, you'll gain clarity regarding the question "Can you deduct life insurance premiums?", the rationale behind IRS rulings, practical and legitimate strategies to indirectly achieve similar benefits, and the pitfalls to avoid in your quest for tax efficiency. By mastering these concepts, you'll be well-equipped to incorporate life insurance intelligently into your broader financial planning strategy. Understanding the Deductibility of Life Insurance Premiums Can You Deduct Life Insurance Premiums Bruce frequently encounters confusion among business owners about deducting life insurance premiums. Let's clear this up immediately: in most cases, you cannot directly deduct life insurance premiums from your taxes if the business owner benefits directly from the policy. The IRS views this scenario as lacking genuine "economic substance," as the policyholder ultimately recoups these premiums through a tax-free death benefit, meaning there's no real economic loss to justify a deduction. The Supreme Court's Stance and Its Implications Bruce highlighted a crucial Supreme Court ruling that set clear boundaries for tax deductions related to life insurance. This landmark decision explicitly stated that deducting premiums or interest on life insurance loans is generally not permissible when the insured party directly benefits. The reasoning is straightforward: since you or your estate will eventually receive these premiums back in the form of a tax-free death benefit, the premiums do not represent an actual financial loss or expense that justifies a tax deduction. Understanding this ruling can save you from potentially costly mistakes and help you align your tax strategies with IRS expectations. Strategic Ways to Indirectly Deduct Premiums Despite the restrictions, Bruce and I discussed legitimate and strategic methods to effectively reduce taxable income and indirectly finance life insurance premiums: Employing Family Members: Bruce pays his father for legitimate business-related marketing tasks. As his father falls into a lower tax bracket, this transaction reduces Bruce's taxable income and generates additional cash flow, indirectly supporting life insurance premium payments. Paying Your Children: Another powerful strategy is employing your children within your bus...

California regulators are allowing State Farm insurance to charge 17% more following this year's LA wildfires. State Farm says it needs the rate increase — on top of the 20% it got last year — because it's in financial distress following the fires. But the issue of higher premiums goes well beyond California. We'll hear more, then learn why there are concerns about the U.S. dollar remaining the world's reserve currency.
