Podcasts about real money

In this episode of Real Money, Real Experts, we sit down with Dr. Jessica Limbrick, an Accredited Financial Counselor®, researcher, and Assistant Professor at Nevada State University — and yes, she's also the woman who throws full-blown birthday parties for 59½.Jessica shares how her early fascination with personal finance, her own lived experiences, and a pivotal poverty simulation shaped her teaching philosophy. She talks about using metaphors, milestones, and empathy to bring financial concepts to life for her students — many of whom are working full-time or caring for families while attending college.We explore her research on college students' shifting views on poverty, the intersection of wealth and perceived intelligence, and how educators and counselors alike can better serve clients across income levels. Plus, we talk AI, crypto, and why she believes everyone should embrace their own “experiment number” à la Lilo & Stitch.This conversation will leave you thinking differently about the role of educators, the weight of financial systems, and the power of meeting people where they are — whether they're clients, students, or simply fellow humans navigating life.Show Notes: 00:51 How personal finance shaped Jessica's path 05:41 Jessica's why 08:03 Why educators need to utilize creativity with financial education13:43 The future of AI & crypto in financial planning17:20 Poverty simulation & impact on her research30:08 Jessica's 2 centsShow Note Links: Connect with Jessica on Instagram!Connect with Jessica on Linkedin!*The link below will ask for a donation.

If your strategy screams content creator—but not power player—this episode is your wake-up call. Too many women are stuck spinning their wheels trying to land high-level deals with low-level tactics. Posting daily? Shouting your value in the comments? Cold DMs for “virtual coffee”? Let's fix that. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it actually takes to get in the room with decision-makers who write big checks. This is for the entrepreneur who knows she's capable of more—but isn't quite sure how to shift from pitching to positioning. We're talking about enterprise-level visibility, not content calendar chaos. These are the power moves I've used—and taught others to use—to land $3M deals and be seen as a peer, not a pitch. If you've been wondering why you're not getting the “yes,” even with receipts and results, this is your blueprint to change that. You don't need more hustle. You need a smarter room. What You'll Learn: The #1 reason your current strategy is keeping you out of high-level rooms Why your funnel and website won't land corporate deals (and what will) 3 powerful shifts to move from “expert” to “enterprise asset” How to identify the right rooms for real opportunities Exactly what to do to stand out to power players and decision-makers The “value entry strategy” that gets you noticed without pitching Mentioned Resources: My new YouTube video on crafting a corporate-ready bio - https://youtu.be/qrRFAdbAY_E Take the Influence Growth Assessment: https://myinfluencestyle.com Your Next Steps: Ambitious Women: Take our Influence Growth Assessment and discover your unique influence and how to use it to boost your profitability: https://myinfluencestyle.com Follow us on Instagram: http://instagram.com/shaynarattlerdavis Follow us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/shaynarattlerdavis

There is fast money and there is real money. Fast money means day traders and hedge funds, who jump in and out on the day's news. But the real money — that of governments and insurance and pension funds — moves much more slowly, and with greater effect.

Fake Students, Real MoneySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today on the podcast, we unravel the complexities of passive investing with Kurt Novak, an experienced investor who's navigated nearly 50 syndications and uncovered some surprising truths on his journey.   When Kurt sold his entire real estate portfolio - rental properties, a self-storage facility, and a thriving brokerage - he thought he was settling into early retirement. Instead, he found himself deep in the world of passive investing, syndications, and allocators.   What started with crowdfunding platforms like CrowdStreet quickly expanded into direct investments, allocator-led funds, and a portfolio spanning nearly 50 syndications. But along the way, he discovered something surprising - many passive investors (including himself at first) had no idea what an allocator really is… or how they make money.   Syndications, Allocators, and the Fine Print Kurt breaks down the differences between investing directly with sponsors and going through allocators (a.k.a. fund managers, middlemen, capital raisers - pick your term). Spoiler alert: it's not always as transparent as you'd hope. In fact, many allocators present deals in a way that makes them look like sponsors, leaving investors unaware of the extra layer of fees, the loss of direct ownership, and who's really calling the shots.   Where's the Real Money? With nearly five years in the passive investing game, Kurt has seen it all - stellar returns, underperforming projections, and even outright fraud. He shares which asset classes have been the biggest winners and which ones have fallen short. Plus, he reveals what happens when an allocator steps up and fights for investors after a deal goes sideways.   What Every Passive Investor Needs to Know This episode is a masterclass in cutting through the noise, avoiding common pitfalls, and making smarter investment decisions. Whether you're a seasoned investor or just dipping your toes into the syndication business, Kurt's insights will challenge the way you think about allocators, fund structures, and who's really working in your best interest. *** If you've ever wondered where your money actually goes in a syndicated deal—how the fees break down, who's making the decisions, and whether you're really getting the best deal possible—this episode is a must-listen. Kurt pulls back the curtain on the hidden layers of passive investing, helping you understand what to look for, what to avoid, and how to make sure your money is truly working for you. *** Explore the world of real estate capital allocators—a fresh approach to financing that's reshaping the industry.   In this series, I talk with allocators, investors, sponsors, and service providers to give you an inside look at this fast-growing space.   PLUS, subscribe to my free newsletter for real estate investors and gain access to: * Introductions to sponsors, allocators, and investment opportunities. * Insights drawn from my 30+ years of experience in real estate investing. * Hacks and tactics for raising capital to help you scale your real estate portfolio.   Visit GowerCrowd.com/subscribe
