In this 200th-episode special of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons, CEO & Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, begins a three-part series exploring why some economists are discussing the potential for a future downturn, and what history can teach us about investor behavior during times of uncertainty. From the fall of Rome to the Great Depression to today's evolving economy, Darryl connects four powerful influences - government spending, inflation, demographics, and technology - and discusses how these forces interact to shape long-term economic outcomes. He also examines how optimism and pessimism affect investor psychology and what it means to stay steady when headlines predict doom. If you've ever wondered whether history is repeating itself - or how to stay grounded when headlines predict doom - this episode offers clarity, perspective, and practical insights to help you think long-term. Key Highlights from the Episode -Why predictions of a “2030 Depression” are gaining attention. -Optimists vs. pessimists: how each influences investor behavior. -Lessons from history: Rome's collapse and the Great Depression. -Why history doesn't repeat itself - but it often rhymes. -What gives U.S. currency its resilience, and how trust plays a role in economic stability.

Retiring early is the ultimate dream... so when Brooke casually dropped that she’s on track to do it by 35 (without the Bank of Mum and Dad), you all screamed a collective “HOW?!” So of course, Victoria had to get her back in the studio to spill everything... and more importantly, share what the rest of us can steal from her strategy without living on two-minute noodles. Turns out, it’s not magic, she started on a $50K salary and built it dollar by dollar with smart habits, steady investing, and a money plan that’s more about options than obsession. Think of this as your crash course in Financial Independence, Retire Early (FIRE) for people who still love a little bit of fun money. Because the real flex isn’t retiring early, it’s having the kind of financial independence that lets you choose what your dream life looks like.Inside this ep:

Welcome back to the Building Your Money Machine Show! Today, I'm pulling back the curtain on one of the most pivotal milestones on your wealth-building journey—the $100,000 mark. Maybe you've already reached it in your savings, investments, or revenue, or maybe you're well on your way. Either way, hitting that first hundred grand isn't the finish line—it's just the launch pad.But here's what most people don't realize: right after that $100K milestone, a series of subtle traps start popping up. These aren't the obvious mistakes—they're disguised as progress, and if you're not careful, they'll derail your momentum just as things are starting to take off.In this episode, I reveal the seven traps that can stall your wealth after breaking $100,000—and most importantly, how to avoid them. I'll walk you through keeping lifestyle inflation in check, treating your investment gains with the respect they deserve (hint: it's not “Vegas money”), and making sure you don't get blindsided by taxes.

What if "retirement" is a trap, and what you really want is to graduate into something bigger? In this episode, Matt and Lou sit down with Eric Brotman, CEO of BFG Financial Advisors, to blow up old ideas about retirement, wealth, and what business owners should actually be doing today so they're ready for the future (whatever that looks like). Eric shares his start‑up origin story, explains how to grow a financial advisory firm that actually serves clients well, and gives a roadmap to exit planning that doesn't leave you miserable. What you'll learn in this episode: How Eric built BFG from one full‑time + one part‑time employee into a firm managing nearly $1B across 37 states, without selling out. (Startup → scale) Why “retirement” is obsolete: Eric argues business owners should think about graduating instead. Generational money attitudes: how Millennials are wired for the side hustle; Gen Z hates being sold to, they want advice. The importance of accountability, behavior, and psychology (not just numbers) in financial planning. Exit planning is not just about selling high. It's about knowing your number, building your team, and preparing your life after the deal. How tying nearly all your wealth to your business is risky. Diversification isn't just for Wall Street folks. The internal structure: salaried advisors, two advisors per client, young talent & apprenticeships. A firm built for sustainability, not churning.   Favorite Quote: “The business is… sometimes their only asset. And you are immediately under-diversified if 70 or 80 or 90% of your net worth is tied up in your business.”   Who is Eric? Eric D. Brotman is the founder & CEO of BFG Financial Advisors. He bootstrapped the firm over 20 years ago and now leads a wealth‑management & financial planning business with clients in dozens of states. He's the author of Don't Retire… Graduate!, and builds financial advice around people, not just numbers.   Why you should listen: Don't wait until you have to plan your exit. Hit play now to get strategies that move you from “just working” to building wealth you can use,  and a legacy you'll be proud of. If you own a business, this episode might save you years of regret (and dollars).   Connect with Eric: Website: https://bfgfa.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ebrotman Facebook (Don't Retire, Graduate!): https://www.facebook.com/DontRetireGraduate Phone: +1 (410) 252-4555

The Social Security Fairness Act, which was signed into law at the start of 2025, has been in effect for about nine months since this game-changing legislation repealed both the Windfall Elimination Provision and the Government Pension Offset, restoring and increasing Social Security benefits for millions of retirees, especially teachers and public employees who worked in jobs exempt from Social Security. In this episode, I discuss exactly who qualifies for these newly restored benefits, explain how the Social Security Administration is handling the rollout, and give you a step-by-step guide on what to do if you haven't received your payment yet. I'll also walk you through critical tax changes you'll need to consider if you're now receiving this extra income, and practical strategies to avoid any nasty tax surprises at the end of the year.  You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [02:26] Social Security Fairness Act overview and impact. [05:57] Who is eligible for Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) or Government Pension Offset (GPO). [07:35] Applying for your benefits. [08:16] How much Social Security becomes taxable. [11:09] Increasing withholding on pensions, IRA, 401(k), or earned income. What Is the Social Security Fairness Act? Signed into law by President Biden in January 2025, the Social Security Fairness Act has restored benefits for millions of retirees who were previously penalized due to their employment in jobs that were exempt from Social Security taxes. These roles frequently include teachers and certain municipal or state employees. For years, retirees in those positions received a reduced Social Security benefit due to provisions known as the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO). Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP): Affected individuals who worked in both Social Security-covered and non-covered jobs, resulting in a reduced Social Security benefit. Government Pension Offset (GPO): Reduced the spousal or survivor Social Security benefit for those receiving a government pension from non-covered employment (like teachers in Connecticut). With the repeal of these two provisions, retirees are now eligible to receive their full Social Security benefit, as well as the entirety of their eligible spousal or survivor benefits, regardless of their pension amount. Who Is Impacted? The Act primarily benefits retirees who worked in state or municipal jobs excluded from Social Security wage contributions (think teachers, police, firefighters, or other state employees in certain states). It also helps spouses or survivors of such retirees, who, under the GPO, were denied or saw dramatic reductions in their spousal/survivor benefits. As an example, if a teacher in Connecticut was receiving a $3,000/month pension, they were previously eligible for only a fraction of their spouse's Social Security survivor benefit. Now, with the Act's passage, they can receive the full amount, eliminating a significant hardship for many families. The Social Security Administration has processed around 3.1 million payments, exceeding prior estimates, and paid out approximately $17 billion. However, some eligible recipients have yet to see increases, particularly those who never filed because they believed they wouldn't qualify. What Should You Do If You're Eligible? If you haven't received a payment adjustment, you might be missing out on thousands of dollars. File or Re-file: Eligible recipients should visit SSA.gov to update or submit a new application for benefits. Check Your Status: Even if you're not currently receiving Social Security, consult the SSA to determine your eligibility for individual, spousal, or survivor benefits, especially once you reach full retirement age (typically between 66-67). Lots of people have been automatically credited and are receiving retroactive payments, but those who never applied in the first place due to WEP and GPO restrictions must now take proactive steps. Tax Implications of Increased Social Security Benefits More income is always welcome, but it may come with new tax responsibilities. Here's what you need to know: Social Security Taxation Basics: Taxability depends on your total income: adjusted gross income (AGI), plus half of your Social Security benefit, plus tax-exempt interest. Generally, married couples with less than $32,000 combined income owe no tax on Social Security, and between $32,000 and $44,000, up to 50% of benefits may be taxable, then over $44,000, up to 85% of benefits can be taxable. For individuals, the thresholds are $25,000 and $34,000. Avoid Surprises by adjusting your tax withholding, either by filing IRS Form W-4V for Social Security, or updating withholdings on pensions or retirement accounts. You may also make quarterly estimated payments, especially if you live in a state with income tax. Social Security does not withhold state income taxes, so plan accordingly to avoid penalties and interest. With these changes, it's more important than ever to review your retirement plan and tax strategy. Speak to a qualified accountant and financial advisor to ensure you are maximizing your benefits and staying compliant with tax requirements.

Your money soundtrack—what plays on repeat in your head—will either help or hinder your financial decisions. We all know the power of overthinking—but the good news is, you can change the tune of those money soundtracks playing in your mind. Jon Acuff joins us today to show you how.Jon Acuff is a New York Times bestselling author, speaker, and podcaster who helps people overcome overthinking, change their mindsets, and achieve goals. He's written 10 books, including Soundtracks: The Surprising Solution to Overthinking.What Are “Soundtracks”?Soundtracks are the repeated thoughts that play in our minds—like music on loop. They can be helpful or harmful, but either way, they shape our lives.If you'd like to change the soundtracks that you have been listening to, this framework is simple yet profound:Retire the broken soundtracks that hold you back.Replace them with healthier, truthful ones.Repeat them until they become second nature.It's not enough to get rid of the old. You have to replace it with the new.Retiring Broken SoundtracksThe first step is to identify what's holding you back. Write down a financial goal—such as paying off debt, buying a home, or supporting missionaries—and then pay attention to your immediate thoughts.Are they encouraging or discouraging? Many people quickly hear internal voices saying things like:“Who are you to think you could do that?”“You'll never make more than your parents.”“Money isn't for people like you.”These are broken soundtracks—thoughts that undermine God's best for your life. Sometimes, they're inherited.Here are several unhealthy financial soundtracks that many people believe:“Mo Money, Mo Problems.” Popularized by a hip-hop song, this belief ties success to stress. But lacking money doesn't eliminate problems either—it often magnifies them. “I'll give when I'm successful.” Many delay generosity until they feel financially “ready.” But giving is a practice best learned in small amounts now, so it grows with you over time. “I'm not a money person.” Labeling yourself this way shuts the door on growth. Money management is a skill, not a fixed identity.These soundtracks don't just affect finances; they limit your potential. In one survey that Jon conducted with 3,000 people, a staggering 96% reported not living up to their full potential—often due to limiting beliefs.Replacing Soundtracks with TruthOnce you identify the lies, it's time to replace them. That can mean flipping the negative thought on its head, seeking wisdom in Scripture, or learning from mentors.Some examples of healthier money soundtracks include:“I can do amazing things with money.”“I can make more than my parents, and that's okay.”“I am my own biggest venture capitalist—my day job is funding my dream.”But what if you feel stuck? We encourage you to start small. Too often, people believe they must overhaul their entire lives overnight. Instead, try carving out 15 minutes a day to take one positive step forward. Over time, those mustard-seed-sized efforts compound into meaningful change.The truth is that the thoughts you repeat about money directly influence how you use it. Broken soundtracks can sabotage generosity, stunt growth, and even cause you to reject God's gifts. However, by retiring lies and replacing them with truth, and repeating them faithfully, you can align your mindset with God's wisdom.If you change the thought, you'll change the actions, and then the results will follow.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm looking at Medicare Advantage plans. They seem cheaper upfront, but I'm concerned about high out-of-pocket costs if something serious were to happen. My wife is just starting Medicare, and we want to know the best option.I'm nearly two years into my job and haven't yet started contributing to the company's 401(k). My concern is making sure my investments align with my Christian values.What's the difference between a living trust and a will, and which one is better for estate planning?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Soundtracks: The Surprising Solution to Overthinking by Jon AcuffJon AcuffList of Faith-Based Investment FundsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Welcome to another powerful episode of the Building Your Money Machine Show! Today, I'm pulling back the curtain on why so many hardworking people spend 40 years saving faithfully, only to find themselves broke or stressed out in retirement. Let me assure you—it's not because you didn't work hard enough. It's because you might have fallen for certain myths or made some silent mistakes you didn't even know were happening.In this episode, we're tackling the three biggest retirement myths that can derail your future and walking through 12 critical mistakes that could quietly sabotage your freedom. More importantly, I'll show you exactly how to avoid them so you can finally live the retirement you've been dreaming about.Here's the truth: earning more doesn't make you free. Building a money machine—where your money works harder for you than you did for it—does. And retirement is not the finish line, it's the starting line for a life of choice and meaning.Drawing from my own journey, I share why chasing some “magic million dollar” number can be a mirage, why you can't count on Social Security to save your retirement, and why building a plan centered around YOUR desired life—not someone else's number—is the only way to create real financial freedom.IN TODAY'S EPISODE, I DISCUSS:The 3 most pervasive retirement myths—and how they keep you stuckWhy your “magic number” needs to be based on your lifestyle, not generic rulesHow over-relying on Social Security puts your dreams at riskWhat retirement really means (hint: it's not about income, it's about choice!)12 crucial mistakes that can ruin your retirementRECOMMENDED EPISODES FOR YOUIf you liked this episode, click here to enjoy these and more:https://melabraham.com/show/The Real Cost of Pretending to be RichWhy Buying a Home is NOT the American DreamWhy Most Americans Never Escape the Middle Class TrapWhat Everyone Gets Wrong About FIREIf You Don't Understand Bonds, You Don't Understand MoneyRECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU If you liked this video, you'll love these ones:The Real Cost of Pretending to be Rich: https://youtu.be/D8DgveoFPEMWhy Buying a Home is NOT the American Dream: https://youtu.be/ERxc8qmfjlAWhy Most Americans Never Escape the Middle Class Trap: https://youtu.be/VBMqrkvvHrYWhat Everyone Gets Wrong About FIRE: https://youtu.be/OyvPksxNMqoORDER MY NEW USA TODAY BESTSELLING BOOK:Building Your Money Machine: How to Get Your Money to Work Harder For You Than You Did For It!The key to building the life you desire and deserve is to build your Money Machine—a powerful system designed to generate income that's no longer tied to your work or efforts.

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Serene Lewis Lyles. What if retiring early isn't just about having enough money, but about designing a life where time becomes your most valuable asset? Serene, a former Meta executive, shares how she planned her exit from a billion-dollar ad business to retire at age 52 and move to Portugal. Serene Lewis Lyles is a designer. Over her nearly 30-year career, she designed digital products and marketing experiences for some of the world's leading brands and organizations. Today, as founder of Ready to Retire Coaching, she helps people design their ideal retirement, with a focus on purpose, finances, and community. After graduating from Northwestern University with a BS in Journalism, Serene started her career doing public relations for some of the world's leading brands, including Nike, Procter & Gamble, and eBay. During this time, she helped launch Luna Bars, NikeTown SF and TiVo digital recording, which is the foundation for streaming programming. Serene's career has spanned products and services around the world. While living in England, she led communications for standardized education products for the University of Cambridge. After returning to the Bay Area, she drove 60% of client engagement as marketing lead for a biotech company. And, after taking a senior director role at Epsilon (now a part of Publicis Groupe), Serene grew their small content strategy service into a core offering that generated millions of dollars annually. In 2019, Serene joined Facebook (now Meta). As a senior director, she led the 100-person content design team behind Facebook and Instagram's $1billion ads business. At Meta, she was also a leader of the employee resource group Black@ Design and founder of the Black@ Content Design Leads group. After retiring from Meta, Serene founded Ready to Retire coaching. When not coaching, Serene can be found on a vineyard in Portugal, where she moved in 2024 with her husband and their Rhodesian Ridgeback. Serene's retirement plans include learning Portuguese, long lunches with friends and making leather goods for pets and people.

Who doesn't like to go out to eat? Carin Stutz gives you a behind the scenes look into the restaurant business. She is a true icon in the industry spending 40+ years as a C-level Exec. She started as a manager trainee at Wendy's International and she worked her way up to Division Vice President.  She shares stories of working with the celebrity Dave Thomas, the founder of Wendy's, as well as her brush with fame by meeting movie star George Clooney. The rest of her career was in the hot trend of "fast casual" dining, with C-Level positions at Applebee's, Chili's and another half dozen other successful chains.  Carin shares what the restaurant business is really like, as in the long hard hours, the missed vacations and family events. Yet she truly loves the industry and the people. She is making up for lost time now with lots of international travel and attending concerts every week. She is also giving back to her industry. She helped start a wildly successful non-profit and serves on lots of very worthwhile boards. She has dedicated her (un)retirement to giving back!
