What emerges is a masterclass in identifying the subtle linguistic tricks that maintain public misunderstanding about how government finance actually works. The conversation begins with Christian's astute observation about the phrase 'the government *can* create money' - a seemingly innocent statement that actually perpetuates dangerous misconceptions. As the panel explores, there's a world of difference between saying the government 'can' create money versus acknowledging that it 'does' create money with every pound it spends. This distinction matters because it allows economists and pundits to maintain outdated frameworks whilst appearing to acknowledge MMT insights. Dr Armstrong brings his characteristic clarity to explaining the consolidated view of government and central bank operations, illustrating why all government spending necessarily involves money creation. Using vivid analogies - from goldfish that must swim in water to the government's unique relationship with the Bank of England - he demonstrates why currency-issuing governments are fundamentally different from currency users like households or businesses. The discussion then tackles the politically damaging notion that governments should only 'borrow to invest'. Patricia explains why this framing misunderstands the true function of deficits whilst inadvertently supporting neoliberal arguments for privatisation. The panel reveals how this seemingly progressive talking point actually reinforces the household analogy and hands ammunition to fiscal conservatives. In his analysis of the 'public debt time bomb' narrative, Phil turns conventional wisdom on its head by pointing out that if foreign debt holdings were truly a source of power, then Britain - as the second-largest holder of US Treasury securities - would presumably have a decisive degree of control over America's economic destiny. Throughout, the conversation illuminates core MMT principles: the operational reality of government spending, the true nature of government bonds as private sector savings, and why exchange rate concerns, whilst legitimate, shouldn't drive us back to defunct fiscal rules. The panel's analysis reveals how even well-intentioned progressive economists can inadvertently perpetuate harmful misconceptions about monetary sovereignty.   =========== Key Topics with Timestamps [02:15] Introduction to the Fauxbel Prize concept[05:30] "Government can create money" vs "does create money"[12:45] The consolidated view of government and central bank[18:20] Why all government spending is money creation[25:10] "Borrowing to invest" - the progressive own goal[35:45] Historical context: Keynes and bifurcating budgets[42:30] The "Tap" system vs bond auctions[48:15] "Public debt = time bomb" narrative analysis[55:40] Exchange rate concerns and industrial policy   ========= Guest Bio Dr Phil Armstrong - Economist and author of "Can Heterodox Economics Make a Difference?".

    Almond Outlook, Propane Savings, and Ag Pride

    The February 19 edition of the AgNet News Hour delivered a fast-moving and wide-ranging program as hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill covered everything from almond crop projections and propane-powered irrigation savings to cattle health and agricultural advocacy. With bloom season underway and storms rolling through California, the message was clear: growers are adapting in real time to protect both this year's crop and their bottom line. The show featured an in-depth interview with Steve Malanca, longtime almond hauler and co-founder of the “My Job Depends on Ag” campaign. Malanca provided an updated almond crop estimate, noting that early fears of a sharply reduced harvest may have been overstated. While some counties reported yields down as much as 15 percent, stronger-than-expected production in Kern County helped stabilize the statewide total. Current projections now place the crop closer to the mid–2.6 to 2.7 billion pound range. Looking ahead, Malanca said chill hours and bloom conditions could position nonpareils for a rebound year, while pistachios may cycle down after last season's record harvest. Beyond production numbers, he emphasized the importance of soil health, carbon sequestration, and moisture retention strategies—especially for Westside growers facing extreme water costs. With some farmers paying $1,000 to $1,500 per acre-foot in dry years, innovation is no longer optional. The program also spotlighted energy efficiency through a compelling interview with grower Lance Sheblut, who detailed his switch from diesel and electric irrigation pumps to propane-powered engines. After running side-by-side comparisons during peak summer heat, Sheblut reported significantly lower operating costs with propane—saving thousands of dollars over just a ten-day period compared to diesel and electricity. With available rebates and full tax write-offs on new equipment, propane is quickly becoming a serious option for growers looking to reduce overhead. Cattle health and disease management were also addressed, with insights into bovine respiratory disease and ongoing vigilance within the beef industry. Meanwhile, the hosts discussed recent arrests tied to beehive theft, underscoring the importance of protecting pollination assets during bloom. Beyond agronomics and economics, the episode reinforced the importance of advocacy. Malanca's “My Job Depends on Ag” campaign continues to raise awareness about how many industries rely on farming, while events like the upcoming Citrus & Specialty Crop Expo highlight the value of networking and innovation across state lines. As Papagni and McGill wrapped the show, one theme stood out: whether it's crop projections, energy solutions, livestock health, or public outreach, California agriculture continues to adjust, innovate, and push forward.

    BTW EP 25: The S-Word: Why Procurement Must Stop Saying "Savings" (and What to Replace it With)

    Art of Procurement

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 18, 2026 54:41


    Procurement's biggest measurement problem isn't that "savings" is incomplete. It's that "savings" has become a substitute for truth. In the first Buy: The Way…To Purposeful Procurement episode of 2026, co-hosts Philip Ideson and Rich Ham unveil the first of the show's new procurement "Buy-laws." It's the one that almost every serious practitioner agrees with, but very few organizations are ready to operationalize: replace savings with defined value. That doesn't mean adding a few extra KPIs in addition to savings. It means removing the word entirely and replacing it with a primary metric that includes verified spend reduction and revenue generation, plus company-specific priorities like emissions reduction, process improvement, resilience, risk reduction, and anything else the business actually cares about.  To help map what this kind of "value" can and should include, Phil and Rich are joined by Omer Abdullah, co-founder of The Smart Cube and co-author of Risk and Your Supply Chain: Preparing for the Next Global Crisis. Omer has spent decades close to the function, advising teams, building intelligence services around procurement decisions, and now working at the intersection of startups, go-to-market strategy, and what he calls a "post-AI" future for procurement. The idea of "post-AI" matters more than it sounds. Omer isn't talking about a world where AI fades away. He's talking about the moment when AI becomes a hygiene factor – embedded, expected, and no longer a differentiator. The result is uncomfortable: once AI takes the transactional load, procurement doesn't automatically become "more strategic." Not unless leaders define what that actually means, what outcomes it should produce, and how to measure those outcomes without defaulting back to the simplest (and most misleading) number on the page. The conversation also goes straight at one of procurement's most corrosive incentives: short-termism. The function keeps making long-term sacrifices for short-term wins because the system asks it to. Rich calls it a "scourge," and Omer lays out what a healthier alternative could look like. He recommends a scorecard that includes in-year expectations, multi-year outcomes that reflect how value compounds over time, and a controlled level of discretionary evaluation to capture the contributions that matter but refuse to sit neatly inside a spreadsheet cell.  Underneath all of this is a truth that the episode doesn't dodge: none of it works without executive support. The CFO and CEO have to buy into procurement's expanded definition of value. Procurement can't wait to be understood; they have to be sold. Procurement is a business within a business, and the C-suite is its most important customer. If leaders don't see the function's potential, it's on procurement to advocate, educate, and prove (through better definitions and better scorekeeping) that the status quo isn't merely outdated. It's actively harmful. Links: Omer Abdullah on LinkedIn Rich Ham on LinkedIn Learn more at FineTuneUs.com

    Tánaiste and Minister for Finance Simon Harris announced a plan this week to introduce a new savings scheme to unlock the €170 billion that people here are keeping in mostly low-yield bank deposit accounts.His plan is to devise a scheme that generates good returns for savers in a way that puts the money on deposit to better use in the economy.Cliff Taylor of The Irish Times covered the story this week, he joins host Ciarán Hancock in studio to assess how such a scheme might work and what might be on the table come budget time.In the second half of this episode, we discuss how visitor numbers to Ireland were down last year, the weather in 2026 has been lousy so far and the country has been getting a reputation as a high-cost location for a holiday.On the flip side of the coin, the Government has decided to scrap the passenger cap at Dublin Airport and has eased rules that would have banned short term holiday lets in rural locations.Eoghan O'Mara Walsh is chief executive of the Irish Tourism Industry Confederation and joined Ciarán on the line to discuss the issues facing the tourism industry this year and its likely asks of Government in the next budget.And with St Patrick's Day on the horizon and it being the typical starting point of the Irish tourism season, how is the year ahead shaping up for the industry?Produced by John Casey with JJ Vernon on sound.

Here are four savings challenges you can start in 2026:    52 Week Envelope Challenge   This savings challenge combines the 52-week challenge with the 100-envelope challenge.    Instead of saving money chronologically (week 1 - $1, week 2 - $2, etc.) and depositing that amount into your savings account, you will fill out 52 envelopes—each with a dollar amount that corresponds with each week of the year.    Once you have your envelopes labeled, give them a quick shuffle to randomize them, then place them back in the box (or set them aside).    Each week, pull a random envelope from its place and save that amount. For example, if you pulled an envelope labeled $39, you would save $39 dollars that week.      If you are using cash, place the $39 in that envelope until the end of the year, or head to your local bank or credit union to deposit it. If you are completing this challenge with an online savings account, make sure to transfer the appropriate amount each week.    Pause Your Subscriptions   Streaming services, food delivery services, and product boxes are monthly subscriptions that most American consumers pay for; some people have multiple subscriptions for the same service-- for example, some consumers subscribe to both DoorDash's DashPass and Uber Eats' Uber One.     Too often, one signs up for a free trial with the intent to cancel before the free trial ends, only to forget and be charged for the service. If you're not keeping an eye on your finances and tracking all your expenses diligently, you may be paying for subscriptions without even realizing it.     Take some time to review your bank accounts and credit card statements from the past few months and highlight any recurring charges.  Then analyze the charges and decide which subscriptions could be paused or canceled temporarily. Maybe you subscribed to a streaming service to watch one show a few months but haven't watched anything on that platform since; maybe you've decided to stop getting food delivered anyway, so you no longer need those subscriptions.     Pause or cancel any subscription you're not currently using and put that money in your savings account or investments instead. You may even find that after a few months, you don't miss those subscriptions anyway!    Roll-the-dice Challenge   Gamifying savings is a great way to turn something that might be stressful or scary into something entertaining and enjoyable!     This challenge is flexible and can be done daily, weekly, or monthly, depending on your goals and financial situation.     Simply roll a die and set aside the cash or transfer that amount to your savings account.     For example, if you roll a 1, save $1; if you roll a 6, save $6, etc.     Looking to save a little more each time? Roll a pair of dice (or one die twice) and save that amount.     Make sure you record your rolls and track your progress on our Roll-The-Dice savings tracker.  made especially for this challenge. Link will be in the show notes  Create Your Own Savings Challenge   This challenge is great if any of the other savings' challenges don't pique your interest OR if you are saving for something in particular-- such as a new car, an upcoming vacation, etc.    Creating your own savings challenge is easy!    Download our savings challenge template and fill it out with YOUR numbers.    For example, if you are saving up for a down payment on a new car, figure out how much you need to save up and record that on the savings challenge page. Then, divide that number by 10 and label each section of the savings challenge tracker—that is how much you will save at a time in order to cross off sections of the tracker.    Once the tracker is filled out completely, you will have the full amount needed for your car's down payment.    If saving money is one of your New Year's resolutions this year, we hope you'll consider one of these savings challenges as a fun way to jump-start your savings goals.    If there are any other tips or topics you would like us to cover, let us know at tcupodcast@trianglecu.org.

You'll learn how to choose between the three main refund options—debt, savings buckets, or a splurge—based on what your real life and your full-year budget actually need.Plus, two pro tips: what to consider if you're getting a big refund every year (hint: it may be time to revisit withholding), and how to prepare now if you owe taxes so next year doesn't feel so painful.The goal?

    routine Routine: The Most Underrated Survival Tool | Episode 587 Hey, it's James from SurvivalPunk.com. It's 45 degrees, I can barely see, and today we're talking about routine — why it's a great survival tool, how it helps you now, and how it helps you later. Routine is one of those preps that benefits you in the “for now” times and in the “oh crap” times. In a stressful situation, you fall back to your lowest level of training. So the higher you make that floor, the better you perform. And routine is how you raise the floor. You Will Fall to Your Routine Under Stress There's a part of my brain that loves routine. I didn't fully realize that until I got older, but I thrive on it. I get legitimately irritated when something messes up my routine. My morning coffee routine is streamlined. Optimized. Efficient. I've tweaked it over and over to make it faster so I can get out the door on time. Lately it's gotten too long, and I may need to rethink it — but the point is this: Once something becomes routine, you don't debate it. You just do it. That's powerful. Because when life gets chaotic, you don't rise to motivation. You fall back to habit. Eating Routine: Stop Letting Hunger Make Decisions Meal timing and food planning are huge. Yes, there's nuance. Yes, fasting can have benefits. Yes, you don't need to force-feed yourself at 9:00 if you're not hungry. But if you consistently don't plan food, you will make bad decisions when hunger hits. Your brain only has so much willpower. Decision fatigue is real. Every food choice drains a little bit of mental energy. If you don't plan, eventually you'll say, “Screw it,” and grab whatever is easy. Consistency beats intensity every time. I've seen people do crash diets — thousand calories a day, one meal a day, massive swings — and sure, they lose weight. Then they binge five pizzas and gain it back. Sustainable routines win. For me, that means: Meals prepped Protein prioritized Food ready before I'm starving If I'm not hungry at the exact time? Fine. But it's there when I need it. No panic decisions. Sleep Routine: Your Immune System Depends On It Sleep is massive. Bad sleep tanks your immune system. It wrecks hormones. It crushes recovery. It makes everything else harder. I try to go to bed at the same time every night. My wake time is consistent. Even on off days, I rarely sleep in past 5 or 6 a.m. When you wake up at a consistent time, you're proactive. When you sleep until noon, you're reactive all day. You're behind before you even start. Dial in: Bedtime Wake time Light exposure Supplements if needed Consistency compounds. Money Routine: If You Don't Plan It, It Plans You There's a quote floating around — if you don't plan your money, your money will plan you. It's true. When I review the budget regularly, everything works. We know where the money's going. Savings grows. There's less stress. When I don't? It's foggy. It feels tight. You wonder where everything went. Routine budgeting reduces anxiety. It reduces decision fatigue. It increases control. The more you can automate — savings transfers, bills, investments — the fewer decisions you have to make. Less friction means fewer mistakes. Fitness Routine: The Cascade Effect Fitness might be number four on this list, but it's powerful. A solid training routine creates a cascade of positive effects: Better sleep Better insulin sensitivity Better mental clarity Better mood I'm planning a body recomposition phase. That requires structure. I need a clear plan for when I train, what I eat, and how I recover. Again — routine lowers friction. You don't argue with yourself. You just execute. Final Thoughts Routine is boring. Routine is not sexy. Routine doesn't go viral. But routine raises your baseline. And in survival — whether it's job loss, stress, health issues, or disaster — baseline matters. Dial in: Food timing Sleep schedule Budget reviews Fitness structure You don't need perfection. You need consistency. This is James from SurvivalPunk.com.DIY to survive.

    The AI Breakdown: Daily Artificial Intelligence News and Discussions

    The latest AIDB Intelligence January AI Usage Pulse Survey of 583 highly active AI users reveals a decisive shift in how value is being created with AI. Time savings is no longer the dominant benefit. Instead, increased output and entirely new capabilities are taking the lead, especially among heavy users. Claude has emerged as the primary model for the most agentic, builder-oriented workflows, while multi-model portfolios are becoming the norm. Vibe coding has gone mainstream beyond engineering, with executives, operators, and product leaders increasingly building their own tools. Agentic usage has more than doubled compared to late last year, suggesting an inflection point in how work is being structured. The data shows a clear pattern: the deeper users go, the less they focus on efficiency and the more they focus on transformation.

    Putting Your Money in Buckets Is a Trap, Do This Instead w/ Joseph Kovacevic

    Real Estate Money School

    Most people think financial freedom comes from earning more, saving harder, or finding the perfect investment. But the real trap isn't income…it's the way we're taught to store and move money. We're told to separate everything into neat little buckets: checking, savings, mortgage, credit cards, investments. And somehow, even when we're "doing well," the system still feels tight, slow, and exhausting. The traditional system is wildly inefficient by design. A 3–4% mortgage isn't really 3–4% at all. It's closer to 12–15% in simple interest once you account for amortization. Savings accounts paying 1–3% sit right next to debt costing 8–25%, and no one ever teaches us to connect those two dots. We're working hard, being disciplined, and still leaking money through invisible cracks. Instead of playing by those rules, Joseph Kovacevic built a completely different operating system: one pot, one line, one flow. All income goes into a first lien HELOC, and all expenses come out of it.  No idle cash, no artificial separation between "good money" and "bad money." How did he go from using money like everyone else to building an entirely different financial system? Why do people struggle so much to understand and actually implement this system? In this episode, entrepreneur, money mentor, and first lien HELOC specialist Joseph Kovacevic breaks down how he's been running this system for over 15 years - from quitting the railroad, to scaling real estate, to using HELOCs and insurance policies as an integrated financial engine.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Your mortgage interest isn't what you think it is A "low" 3–5% mortgage is actually closer to 12–15% in simple interest over 30 years, so what are you really paying for homeownership? Why savings accounts make you poorer, not safer If you're earning 1–3% in savings while paying 8–25% on debt, are you actually saving, or quietly burning money? The one-pot system that replaces budgeting entirely What happens when all income, expenses, investing, and saving run through a single HELOC instead of 10 separate accounts? How to become the bank instead of borrowing from one From infinite banking to lending your own capital at 12%+, how do you turn cash flow into a self-funding wealth machine?   Guest Bio Joseph Kovacevic is an entrepreneur, Money Mentor, and first lien HELOC specialist.  At 23 years old, he hired out on the railroad for a career that lasted almost 20 years. He has been investing in real estate since 2000. Between managing rental properties and flipping houses, he was able to escape the corporate world and become an entrepreneur.

    Beat the Wealth Management Hustle: Invest Independently to Grow Savings Faster with Peace of Mind by Andrew D. Parrillo Parrilloinvestors.com https://www.amazon.com/Beat-Wealth-Management-Hustle-Independently/dp/B0CSMZQ8H1 Are you frightened whenever financial markets decline dramatically? Unsure of how to proceed with building your wealth? This book will teach you how to invest and grow your money with joy and peace of mind! You can learn to invest fearlessly, whether you have a full-time advisor, invest independently, or engage a fixed-fee consultant to construct a customized strategy. Whatever approach you select, you must systematically develop a resilient strategy and maintain the resolve to execute it with discipline. There is no reason to be intimidated by investing. Your first step is to arm yourself with the vital investment knowledge that this book provides. Since it is your hard-earned money, you should make confident decisions about how to invest it and, if you are working with an advisor or consultant, learn how they add value after their fees. ___________________ In Beat the Wealth Management Hustle, Andy points the way for you to determine who is working to make money for themselves, and who is working to make money for you. Having worked with Andy in the institutional investment industry for over thirty years, it is clear to me that he places his clients' interests ahead of his own. Sadly, this is rather rare. As Andy suggests, ask the hard questions, demand straightforward answers, and use these to evaluate your advisor's and their results. Beware those who obfuscate and bamboozle. Investing isn't overly complicated or hard. My rule is that if I can't understand what the advisor or investment manager is doing, I don't invest with them. Period.” –Mitchell Little, Managing Member Coronado Investments LLC “I had the honor of working for Andy at his investment advisory firm for several years. His unwavering commitment to daily diligence, thoughtful guidance, and genuine care for clients has left a lasting impression on me. Thanks to Andrew, I discovered my path to wise investment management, and I am confident that others reading his book will find the same clarity and gain the confidence they need. Andrew's insights empower readers to identify what truly matters when choosing an advisor – ensuring added value to their portfolios and not falling for the impressions of personalities and big names. As Andrew wisely points out, it is time for Wealth Management advisory services to undergo a transformative change.” –Asta Galinyte, Venture Partner at VU Venture Partners and former colleague at Newport Capital Advisers LLC “Andy's life experiences make him the ideal person to eliminate your investment anxiety. He outlines a disciplined and continuous structure for YOU to plan and implement an efficient investment program. Ask the right questions and become your own chief investment officer today. I could not more highly recommend reading this one as soon as possible!” –Joel Salomon, Bestselling author of Mindful Money Management, The 9 Money Rules Millionaires Use, and Infinite Love and Money

    Aaron Schumm, CEO and Founder of Vestwell, knows firsthand how broken America's savings system is. When he tried to set up a 401k for his previous 30-person company back in 2010, the process was so difficult, expensive, and confusing that he decided to build a better solution. Today, Vestwell serves 2 million savers with $50 billion in assets, has reduced 401k setup times from 40-70 hours down to just minutes, and runs 14 state-sponsored auto IRA programs including New York's Secure Choice.In this episode, Aaron explains why fintech has largely failed to move the needle on financial health, too many point solutions that put the onus back on individuals to figure out what to do and then implement it across multiple accounts. His solution? AI agents that will automatically route money from your paycheck to the optimal savings vehicle based on your income, location, tax rates, existing savings, and life circumstances. And he says we're less than a year away from making that a reality.In this podcast you will learn:What is broken with the current savings system in America.The problem at his previous business that was the a-ha moment for Vestwell.Their initial use case and how they got going.How their product works exactly.The three channels they work with.How they are working with New York State and other government programs.The conversations they are having with the Federal government around savings programs.The percentage of employees who typically sign up for an auto-enroll program.The scale that Vestwell is at today.What their technology stack looks like.How much easier it is to set up a workplace savings plan through Vestwell than traditional companies.The different revenue lines for Vestwell.How they are working with Amazon.Why we are not further along in helping Americans with their financial health.How autonomous AI agents are going to optimize our financial lives in the future.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes
