For the first time as a host combination, Ben, Dan, and Cameron sit down to discuss the most controversial topics in personal finance. We begin with identity and how it informs decision-making. Then, we revisit the renting versus buying debate, why this remains a highly controversial topic, the ins and outs of income investing, and understating the fervor of dividend investing. We also unpack FIRE as a branch of self-help; how it informs happiness; and how personality influences one's approach to the FIRE principle.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 75-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 21,578 on turnover of $3.6-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan closed slightly lower Friday as contract chipmaker TSMC recovered earlier losses, while cautious market sentiment persisted amid a spike in U.S. Treasury yields and concerns over rising debt in the world's largest economy. Old economy stocks appeared mixed amid concerns over volatility in the U.S. markets due to rising debt. MOTC: unlicensed drivers to face tougher penalties The Minister of Transportation and Communications says, unlicensed driving will be treated similarly to drunk driving under a new draft amendment. Minister Chen Shi Kai said that new proposed (建議的) penalties, which the ministry has been working on since last year, include unlimited fines for repeat offenders, and the immediate impounding of vehicles. Car owners who allow unlicensed drivers to operate their vehicles will also face harsh (嚴厲的) penalties, according to the minister. Chen also emphasized that the MOTC does not plan to ban older people from driving, rather they hope to ensure that older drivers can drive more safely. Those draft amendments are scheduled to be submitted to the Executive Yuan for approval by the end of next month. Current rules limit fines for unlicensed motorists and motorcyclists at NT$24,000, with repeat offenses within a five-year period receiving the maximum fine and a driving ban. US Embassy in Israel Attacker Detained A U.S. German citizen is under arrest for attempting (試圖) to firebomb the U.S. embassy in Israel. AP correspondent Julie Walker reports Russia Ukraine Complete Prisoner Swap Russia and Ukraine have swapped hundreds more prisoners of war, the third and last part of a major swap and a rare moment of cooperation in otherwise failed efforts to reach a ceasefire. The exchange on Sunday saw each side bring home 303 more soldiers, after each released a total of 307 combatants and civilians on Saturday, and 390 on Friday. The swap was the biggest since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and came just hours after Ukraine's capital of Kyiv and other regions came under a massive (大量的) Russian drone-and-missile attack that killed at least 12 people and injured dozens. Ukrainian officials sad the attack was the largest aerial assault of the war. France 2nd Major Power Outage A second major power outage has hit southeastern France, this time in the city of Nice, after a suspected arson damaged an electrical facility. Police currently have not established a link between Sunday's blackout and a power outage on Saturday that disrupted the city of Cannes during the closing day of its renown film festival. The Nice blackout started around 2 a.m. and left some 45-thousand households without electricity. The city's trams stopped and power was briefly (短暫地) cut to the airport during its overnight closure hours. Power was fully restored by 5:30 a.m. That was the I.C.R.T.

“Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds, for riches do not last forever…” - Proverbs 27:23-24These days, our “flocks and herds” often look like stocks and mutual funds, not sheep and cattle. But the call to wise stewardship remains. One way we do that is through proxy voting. Jerry Bowyer joins us to explain how and why it matters.  Jerry Bowyer is the President of Bowyer Research and our Resident Economist here at Faith & Finance.

As a citizen, you vote in elections, attend town halls, and even influence legislation. As a shareholder in a company, if you own the stock directly, you have similar rights: to vote on proposals, ask questions, and even submit resolutions.But if you're invested through mutual funds or ETFs, you hand that vote over to someone else—often a fund manager or institution. And unless you know how they're voting, your values may not be represented at all.Many Christian ministries, nonprofits, and even pro-life organizations are unknowingly voting against their own missions. Why? Because they either don't engage in proxy voting or delegate it without vetting the recipient's values.How Can Investors Reclaim Their Voice?Proxy statements are often long, complex, and written in confusing legal language. For that reason, many advisors default to saying, “Just let the client decide,” rather than helping them engage meaningfully.Of course, that's not a good sign because if it's too complex for the advisor, it's definitely too complex for the client. Instead, we encourage advisors and Christian investors to partner with specialists, like Bowyer Research, who can help decode the process and ensure votes reflect biblical values.They offer audits to show investors how they've been voting—often to their shock. They've never done one where people weren't stunned by what they saw.Mutual Funds, ETFs, and the Challenge of Indirect OwnershipIf you're invested through mutual funds or ETFs, you're likely not voting directly. However, that doesn't mean you're powerless. Here are some things to keep in mind:You can request data on how your funds are voting. Bowyer Research tracks that. You can explore “direct indexing” solutions—an increasingly available strategy that allows you to own shares directly and reclaim your voting rights. You can ask your advisor questions. “How am I voting?” is a simple but powerful question. If your advisor can't answer it, that's a red flag.What You Can Do TodayAsk your advisor how your shares are being voted. If they don't know, press in.Get an audit of your proxy voting records through BowyerResearch.com.Talk to companies, not just about them. Change happens through engagement, not complaint.If you're an investor, advisor, or leader at a Christian ministry or nonprofit, don't let your investments work against your mission. Visit BowyerResearch.com to learn how to align your proxy voting with your values.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 27 and own 20 acres of land.

My guest in this episode is the always welcome Tony Kynaston from QAV. Today, we dove into intrinsic value and company valuations. Tony explained valuation as a heat map. No single number pins down a company's worth. He uses multiple methods to gauge value. Companies get valued by assets or earnings. Think of your house—it's valued by comparing recent sales in your area. A coffee shop works the same way. Its assets, like the premises or equipment, have comparable values. Earnings matter too. Tony uses a discounted cash flow to estimate how long it takes to recover the asking price.Blog post available at: https://www.sharesforbeginners.com/blog/kynaston-intrinsicTony Kynaston is a multi-millionaire professional investor thanks to his QAV checklist.

Today, we dive deep into her journey from growing up in Lima, Peru during a military dictatorship to becoming a pioneer in investing in women-led businesses. Patricia shares how her early entrepreneurial spirit emerged in high school, where she organized unprecedented events and discovered her ability to "build the world you want to live in."

Could rentals help YOU achieve financial independence and even retire early? That's the goal for today's guest, who, despite growing up with very little, is now building wealth with real estate. In just three years, she has already scaled to 10 properties…and counting! Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! After discovering the FIRE movement (financial independence, retire early), Lindsay Barrientos decided that real estate investing would be the lifeline from her high-stress W2 job. In just three years, this healthcare professional has already scaled her real estate portfolio to 10 rentals and is on track to leave her job in the coming years—all thanks to a combination of hard work, out-of-state investing, and creative financing. These “home run” deals include a $135,000 property that cash flows over $500 a month and a $79,000 property that recently appraised for over $150,000! In this episode, Lindsay will share the strategies that helped her find high-cash-flow, off-market deals beyond her backyard. Along the way, you'll learn how to build your network, scale faster through the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat), and unlock seller finance deals that allow you to put low money down on investment properties! In This Episode We Cover: How Lindsay grew her portfolio to 10 rental properties in just three years Scaling fast with the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) Creating MORE cash flow through the power of out-of-state investing How to lower your living expenses with the house hacking strategy The three keys to finding seller finance deals (even as a beginner!)

Larry Ostola speaks with Tim Falconer about his book, Windfall: Viola MacMillan and Her Notorious Mining Scandal. Viola MacMillan was a trailblazing prospector and mining executive who rose to prominence in a male-dominated industry. In 1964, after decades of success, she became the central figure in a major stock scandal. Shares in her company, Windfall Oil and Mines, soared on unverified rumors of a big find. MacMillan remained silent as the price climbed—until the company admitted it had nothing. The crash devastated small investors and led to a royal commission and reforms in Canadian financial regulation. Though convicted and jailed, MacMillan was later awarded the Order of Canada. Tim Falconer is the author of Bad Singer: The Surprising Science of Tone Deafness and How We Hear Music and Klondikers: Dawson City's Stanley Cup Challenge and How a Nation Fell in Love with Hockey, both named to The Globe and Mail's Top 100 Books. He lives in Toronto, Ontario. Image Credit: ECW Press If you like our work, please consider supporting it: bit.ly/support_WTY.

What happens when the pain you've been running from becomes the very thing that sets you free? In this moving episode of The Big Silence, Karena sits down with somatic therapist and author Britt Piper to explore the transformative journey from trauma to healing.

Together, they dismantle the silence around pain, trauma, and recovery, while offering tangible tools to begin reconnecting with your body, your story, and your truth.If you've ever felt like healing was out of reach or wondered if you'd ever be able to trust again—this conversation is your permission slip to begin.Can We Ever Fully Heal From Trauma We Don't Remember?Britt answers this by redefining what healing actually looks like—and how the body always remembers, even when the mind does not.00:01:13) Who Am I Without My Title?

Exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, are rapidly growing in popularity, and for good reason. ETFs offer investors an easy, cost-efficient way to diversify their portfolios. But what are they, and what advantages do they offer over other investments? Deirdre Gibson joins us today to talk about ETFs and why you should consider putting some in your portfolio.Deirdre Gibson is a Senior National Sales Consultant and ETF Specialist for Praxis Investment Management, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. What Is an ETF—and How Does It Differ from a Mutual Fund?Think of an ETF as a basket of investments—stocks, bonds, or even commodities—that trades on an exchange like a stock. Unlike mutual funds, which process trades at the end of the day, ETFs allow you to buy and sell shares throughout the day. This provides investors with more flexibility, especially during volatile market conditions.ETFs are also more tax-efficient than mutual funds. Mutual fund transactions often trigger taxable events for all shareholders, whereas ETFs, due to their structure, generally limit capital gains taxes.Like mutual funds, ETFs offer built-in diversification by holding a variety of assets. This helps reduce risk—if one stock in the fund dips, others can offset the loss. It's also advised to avoid trading ETFs during the first and last 10 minutes of the market day, when prices are more volatile and spreads are wider.While some ETFs are straightforward, others are complex. For example, oil futures ETFs don't always track the price of oil as expected, making them riskier for everyday investors. Thankfully, ETF issuers are required to disclose all holdings and strategies on their websites, empowering investors to make informed decisions.Faith-Based Investing with PraxisHistorically, faith-based investing has centered around mutual funds. But that's changing. Praxis recently launched two ETFs designed with Christian values at their core:PRXG: Praxis Impact Large Cap Growth ETFPRXV: Praxis Impact Large Cap Value ETFThese funds reflect biblical principles by screening out companies involved in harmful practices and engaging with others to encourage positive change. One powerful example? Praxis helped Hershey and other chocolate companies address child slavery in their supply chains—an impact made possible through years of collaborative engagement.For 2025, Praxis is focusing on technological transformation, particularly in the areas of artificial intelligence and quantum computing. It's vital to have Christians at the table asking not just what is possible, but what kind of future we want to create.If you're interested in faith-based investing and work with a financial advisor, we encourage you to start a conversation with them. Your advisor wants to help you achieve your goals, and your values are an integral part of that. More advisors today are equipped to offer faith-based investments that don't compromise on financial performance.Learn MoreYou can explore Praxis's biblically responsible investment solutions, including their new ETFs, by visiting praxisinvests.com.Faithful investing is more accessible than ever.
