This exploration of Proverbs 17 takes us on a journey through the practical wisdom of everyday life, reminding us that character matters more than position and that our words have irreversible consequences. We're confronted with the powerful image of toothpaste squeezed from a tube—impossible to put back—illustrating how gossip and harsh words, once spoken, leave permanent marks on relationships. The passage challenges us to examine whether we're building bridges or burning them with our speech. We discover that God refines our hearts like precious metals in a crucible, using trials not to break us but to reveal our true integrity. The wisdom here isn't abstract philosophy; it's intensely practical advice about treating people fairly, avoiding foolish financial decisions, and recognizing that even a servant with integrity can surpass a shameful son in honor. Perhaps most beautifully, we're reminded that joy is medicine for our souls and that we're called to actually enjoy the life God has given us—the meals, the relationships, the stages of life we're in right now. This isn't about waiting for the next season; it's about being present and grateful in this one. The call is clear: speak with wisdom, treat others with dignity, and watch how these ancient principles actually work when we apply them consistently to our modern lives.**Sermon Notes: Proverbs 17****Detailed Notes:**1. **Proverbs 17 Overview:**  - The sermon walks through Proverbs 17 verse by verse, exploring wisdom, character, and relationships.  - Main themes include the value of character over position, the refining process of trials, and integrity in communication.2. **Proverbs 17:1-2:**  - A simple life with peace is better than wealth with strife.

Tobias built Altitude Finance after running into the classic DeFi lending trade-off: either borrow conservatively and unlock very little capital, or borrow aggressively and risk liquidation when markets move fast.In this episode, we break down how Altitude makes loans more capital-efficient while keeping users at a safer LTV, how their vault automation rebalances positions during volatility, and why their best users love the “self-repaying loan” experience.We also cover Tobias' take on what changes in DeFi to watch in 2026—especially around token value being tied more tightly to protocol value, and why “stablecoins backed by risky strategies” could be the next blow-up.Key Timestamps[00:00:00] Intro: Altitude traction, TVL, DeFi trends for 2026[00:01:00] Tobias' journey: Ethereum → DeFi Summer → full-time crypto [00:02:00] The lending trade-off: capital efficiency vs liquidation stress [00:03:00] What Altitude does: low LTV + protocol adds leverage to ~60% [00:04:00] Differentiation: efficiency, peace of mind, simplified UX [00:06:00] 2025 recap: whitelisted → public vaults, surviving volatility [00:07:00] 2026 focus: simpler onboarding, wallets, on/off-ramps [00:08:00] Automation: rebalances as prices move, keeps vaults healthy [00:09:00] 2026 DeFi trend: tokens aligning more with “common stock” value [00:10:00] Stablecoin warning: risky strategies behind “stable” pegs [00:12:00] Adoption driver: the “self-repaying loan” dopamine [00:14:00] Real-world use cases: Tesla, land, iPhone, engagement ring [00:18:00] Founder advice: simplify, avoid overwhelming choice [00:22:00] AI in DeFi: useful for insights, not autonomous execution (yet) [00:26:00] GTM: reach long-term BTC/ETH holders across better channels [00:29:00] Roadmap: wallets + off-ramps + mainstream user journey [00:31:00] Ask: try the product, give feedback, help simplify onboardingConnecthttps://app.altitude.fi/https://www.altitude.fi/https://www.linkedin.com/company/altitude-labs-defi/https://www.linkedin.com/in/tobiasvanamstel/https://x.com/AltitudeFi_https://x.com/tobiasvanamstel?lang=enDisclaimerNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research. It would mean a lot if you can leave a review of this podcast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify and share this podcast with a friend.Get featuredBe a guest on the podcast or contact us – https://www.web3pod.xyz/

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.getrichslowly.org/should-repaying-debt-be-an-obsession/ Quotes to ponder: "You paid off $35,000 in debt in just over three years. Does that mean you were balls-to-the-wall dedicated and had no frills and were dour-faced the whole time?" "Most people who leap from a lifestyle of deficit-spending to one of extreme frugality find the waters very, very cold." "Yes, thrift and frugality are important tools to meeting your financial goals. But I believe it's important to develop sustainable financial goals."

Jews have a specific relationship with money that others tend to blow out of proportion. Some Jews go out of their way to make fun of this antisemitic trope by turning themselves into caricatures in hopes of revealing such lunacy with satire. However, the Torah has so many laws around how we handle money that it must be spotlighted!  Rachel Grose, the executive director of the Jewish Free Loan Association knows a thing or two about cash from the Jewish perspective. Loaning in itself is a tricky bundle of laws to navigate, especially when it comes to the Jewish world. Grose discusses the enticing world of money with Chaz Volk, host of Bad Jew, in an effort to destigmatize the misunderstanding and highlight what makes the Jewish community so successful. 00:00 Introduction 05:12 Principles of society 09:01 Zero-interest loans 11:33 Circulation in Jewish communities 16:11 History of Jews and money 20:03 Case study of Jewish Free Loan Association 23:53 Jewish privilege and challenges 24:44 Repaying loans 29:20 Jewish loans help communities grow and thrive About Rachel Grose: Rachel Grose grew up in a Washington D.C. suburb, surrounded by politics but uninterested in campaigns or running for office. Her passion for creating change began in high school when she became involved with Amnesty International, where she connected deeply with the stories of people impacted by systemic issues. After earning a BFA in art, Rachel discovered an MBA program focused on nonprofit management, which launched her career in the nonprofit sector. For the past 21 years, she has served as the Executive Director of the Jewish Free Loan Association (JFLA), a financial nonprofit that provides zero-interest, no-fee loans to residents of Los Angeles, Ventura, and Santa Barbara counties. Rachel takes pride in JFLA's mission to help individuals manage life's unexpected challenges without turning to high-interest credit cards or predatory loans. Under her leadership, the organization supports clients through every stage of life, offering loans for post-secondary education, small businesses, medical needs, fertility treatments, and funeral expenses, among others, while maintaining a remarkable 99% repayment rate. Despite the challenges of being a woman leader in one of the largest cities in America, Rachel remains committed to equitable lending and the impactful cycle of “paying it forward.” Beyond her professional achievements, Rachel cherishes warm memories of summers spent in Ocean City, Maryland with her extended family. Days on the beach—collecting shells, jumping in the waves, and sharing snacks under umbrellas with her grandmother—left a lasting impression on her heart. These personal experiences fuel her drive to build a meaningful career while balancing family life. Rachel is often asked, “How do you do it all?” Her response is evident in her decades-long dedication to fostering financial empowerment and community impact through JFLA.

“We know that our old self was crucified with him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin.” - Romans 6:6Being born again in Christ changes a person. We're given a new nature that fights against our old, corrupt nature. Sometimes, the evidence of this is in the area of finances. Straight ahead—a journey to faithful stewardship.Bobby's TestimonyIt's always a great privilege to connect with people, answer their financial questions, and offer help whenever possible. Recently, we spoke with Bobby from Nebraska, whose story is a powerful testament to the transformative power of faith and determination.Bobby was in a tough spot. He had accumulated significant debt, including a car repossession, delinquent medical and credit card debt, and unpaid overdraft loans sent to collections. But despite his financial struggles, Bobby was committed to turning his life around. When asked if anything had changed in his life since accumulating that debt, Bobby shared his story.In his own words, Bobby explained, “Back then, I was big into partying and addicted to drugs. I sold drugs and went to prison for it. Well, now I'm clean and sober. I don't do any of that anymore. I actually have money in my bank account. September 10th, 2021, was the biggest start of it. That's when I gave my life to Jesus Christ. And now I'm just trying to get everything back in line and where it needs to be.”Hearing how Bobby's life has changed since inviting Christ in as his Savior was truly inspiring. His commitment to sobriety and financial stewardship is a powerful example of God's redemptive power.Steps Toward Financial FreedomA few weeks ago, we advised Bobby to take several steps to get his finances in order. First, we recommended that he pull copies of his credit reports from Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion to identify all his debts. Then, we suggested he contact Christian Credit Counselors to help manage his credit card debt through a debt management plan, which would consolidate his payments and help him pay off his debt faster.We also offered to connect Bobby with one of our Certified Christian Financial Counselors (CertCFC) at no charge. This counselor would work with him one-on-one to develop a budget and create a plan for paying off his old debts. Finally, we took a moment to pray with Bobby, thanking God for His miraculous intervention and the gift of eternal life that Bobby had received.Biblical Principles Guiding Bobby's TransformationBobby's journey highlights several biblical principles that are now guiding his life:The Body as a Temple: Bobby's decision to give up drugs aligns with 1 Corinthians 6:19, which reminds us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. Recognizing that we are not our own but belong to God is a powerful motivator for making healthy choices.Humility: Bobby's willingness to seek help, even on a public platform, reflects the humility described in Proverbs 22:4: “The reward for humility and fear of the Lord is riches and honor and life.”Honesty: Bobby's commitment to owning up to his debt is a reflection of the biblical principle of honesty. Exodus 20:16 and Colossians 3:9 teach us the importance of living truthfully, especially as followers of Christ.Repaying Debts: The Bible emphasizes the importance of repaying what we owe. Psalm 37:21 says, “The wicked borrows but does not pay back, but the righteous is generous and gives.” Bobby's desire to pay off his debt is a step toward fulfilling this principle.Stewardship: Perhaps the most significant principle guiding Bobby now is stewardship. He wants to manage his finances faithfully, in line with 1 Corinthians 4:2: “It is required of stewards that they be found faithful.”We were grateful to help Bobby on his journey to faithful stewardship, and we want to extend that same help to you. If you're struggling with your finances, need help creating a budget, or want to develop a plan to pay down debt and start saving, please reach out to us. We're here to help you take the next step toward financial freedom and faithful stewardship.Bobby's story is a powerful reminder that with God's help, it's never too late to turn your life around and get back on track. If you're ready to take that step, we're here to walk alongside you.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 70 and have a lot saved in my retirement accounts.

It's Memorial Day, a solemn day to remember the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving. Our community knows well that this isn't a day to celebrate those serving or who have served in the military. Unfortunately, many people mistake Memorial Day as another Veteran's Day. No. Today is a sacred day to honor those who not only laid down their lives to preserve our freedoms, liberties, and way of life but, in many cases, gave their life to protect those serving beside them. Their sacrifice is a debt we will never be able to repay, but “we, the people,” should still try. In this episode, I'm going to talk about the significance of Memorial Day and ways we can attempt to repay the debt together.

In this episode, we observe the relationship dynamics between a king and his soldiers, as portrayed in Sangam Literary work, Puranaanooru 298, penned by the poet Aaliyaar. The verse is situated in the category of 'Karanthai Thinai' or 'Recapturing' and indirectly reveals the noble virtues of a leader.

 Thousands of Oregonians are dealing with having to pay back some unemployment benefits the state now says they shouldn't have received. The Oregon Law Center filed a lawsuit in 2022 arguing that the Oregon Employment Department is violating the due process clause of the constitution. The case is ongoing and represents the confusion around paying back benefits. Meanwhile the agency says it was overwhelmed by requests during the pandemic, and it’s possible that more than $5.5 million could be waived in overpaid benefits. Dianne Lugo is a reporter for the Statesman Journal and has covered these issues. She joins us with more on her reporting.
