Episode 2808: Andy Hill explores three thoughtful alternatives to fully merging finances in marriage, drawing on real-life examples from the personal finance community. Whether couples want to maintain autonomy, streamline shared expenses, or build in guilt-free spending, these options aim to reduce tension and better align financial habits with relationship values. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://marriagekidsandmoney.com/3-smart-alternatives-to-merging-money-in-marriage-2/ Quotes to ponder: "What I'm finding more and more in marriage is that we need to choose what works best for us and not let other opinions interfere." "Money is also a form of independence, and so having to negotiate with another person regarding money can create a power struggle that is really about so much more than money." "Life is good."

From Congress to the catwalk, tonight's episode of “What's New with ME” pulls back the curtain on power, privilege, and how the game is really played.Hosted by Ali Mehdaoui, this late-night–style breakdown stays unbiased, mixing satire, sharp analysis, and real empathy where it counts.

For many Americans, contributing to an employer-sponsored plan is the primary way they're saving for retirement. Unfortunately, not all of these plans are excellent, and you're stuck with the investment choices and features chosen by your employer.Or are you? Longtime Motley Fool colleagues Robert Brokamp and Buck Hartzell talk about how the Motley Fool's 401(k) was actually not very good in the early days, how they worked with the company to improve the plan, and how you might be able to get your employer to do the same. Also in this episode: How to lower your tax bill with charitable contributions, including why you maybe should give more in 2025 due to a provision in the new tax bill. Two worthy organizations to consider: the Fool Community Foundation (FoolFoundation.org), which creates new wealth-building opportunities for Americans living paycheck to paycheck, and Together We Bake (TogetherWeBake.org), which provides workforce development for women with limited resources facing barriers to employment.

What happens when listeners ask the questions that libertarians usually avoid? Today's episode digs straight into the tension every liberty-minded American feels: wanting freedom, wanting responsibility, wanting real-world results… and needing it all to make sense in a world that's already been distorted by government. If you've ever struggled to balance principles with practicality, this episode is going to hit home. Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS We're diving into three real emails from longtime listeners who aren't asking surface-level questions. They're wrestling with parenting under bad policy, staying healthy in a chaotic world, and trying to sell better ideas to people who don't think about politics at all. And each topic forces us into the place libertarians often avoid — real-world execution, not theoretical perfection. This one gets real. We talk about strategic voting, the difference between ideology and outcomes, how parents can build a fitness routine that actually sticks, and why most political messaging fails before it even gets started. If you've ever looked at the political landscape and thought, “Why aren't liberty-leaning candidates winning when their ideas are clearly better?”, you're going to get an answer today that you can use, not just think about. We also walk through the emotional side of persuasion — why messaging without pain points falls flat, why candidates lose the middle even when they're right on policy, and how to speak the language of the people you're trying to reach. Not in a cringey, code-switching way… but in a practical, sales-driven, outcome-focused frame that normal people actually relate to. If you want actionable advice — the kind you can take into parenting, fitness, politics, or even your 9-to-5 — this episode delivers. This is liberty you can apply, not liberty you argue about online. Get ready to take notes… this is a Q&A that turns into a masterclass. ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (CardioMiracle.com/TBNS) for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

The Solar Car That Charges Itself While You Live Your LifeGrowing up, I always wondered: why can't cars just recharge themselves as we drive? Turns out, someone finally built exactly that.Robert Hoevers and his team at Squad Mobility created a solar-powered city car that does something brilliantly simple—it charges itself. There's a solar panel on the roof that continuously feeds the battery whether you're parked at the grocery store, sitting in your driveway, or cruising around town.The engineering is impressive, but the user experience is even better. For most people living in sunny climates—anywhere between 45 degrees north and 45 degrees south latitude (roughly Spain to South Africa)—you'll never need to find a charging station. Ever.Here's the reality: the average person drives about 12 kilometers a day for daily errands. School runs, grocery shopping, meeting friends. The Squad solar car has a 150-kilometer maximum range, and the sun replenishes what you use. You just drive it, park it, and forget about charging infrastructure entirely.This is what smart urban mobility looks like. It's street legal with proper crash structures, seat belts, and rollover protection. It tops out at 45 or 70 kilometers per hour depending on which model you choose—fast enough for city streets, not built for highways. In Europe, you only need a moped license for the slower version.The design sits somewhere between a golf cart and a Smart car, which makes perfect sense. Squad isn't trying to replace your family vehicle. They're solving the "second car" problem—those short daily trips where driving a massive SUV feels ridiculous.The market is responding. Squad Mobility has over 5,300 pre-orders and secured 1.5 million euros in European subsidies. They're currently crowdfunding on Republic to bridge the final gap before production starts in about a year.What surprised me most? Ten percent of their pre-orders come from American gated communities and golf cart neighborhoods. These communities already understand the value of compact, efficient vehicles for daily errands. Squad just made them solar-powered and street legal.Yes, you need consistent sunlight. If you live in perpetually cloudy climates, you'll still need to plug in occasionally. But for millions of people in sunny regions tired of hunting for charging stations or paying electricity bills to charge their second car, Squad Mobility built the obvious solution that somehow nobody else did.Sometimes innovation isn't about reinventing the wheel. It's about putting a solar panel on the roof and letting the sun do the work.This is the future of urban mobility, and it's arriving next year. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I love building something raw — and letting everyone see the mess.That's the point of the R3ciprocity Project.There's uncertainty.There's embarrassment.There's a lot of “I have no idea what I'm doing.”But I keep going.Because what I've realized — in startups and in academia — is that we have a strong culture of hiding.Hiding failure.Hiding doubt.Hiding how much of this is just making it up as you go.Here's the wild part:I've read thousands of articles. I've studied innovation for two decades.I have an engineering degree.I'm a professor.And still, I don't always know what I'm doing.And that's the truth no one says out loud.Instead, we tell people they're wrong for feeling lost.Or we pretend it's easy — that everyone has it figured out.And that makes it worse.We don't talk about how much comes down to connections.To having a parent who can fund your startup.To being in the right room at the right time.To having the “right” people give you a chance.And when people like us try to do it legitimately, transparently, and slowly…We feel like failures.But we're not.We're just playing the game differently.Building R3ciprocity has been messy.I've spent way too much money.I feel guilty I can't pay my team more.I wish it had worked faster.But I keep showing up.Because I know this is what real work looks like.If you're struggling —If you feel like you're the only one who hasn't figured it out —You're not alone.You're just doing the hard thing, honestly.And that's the part we don't talk about enough.

Mamdani, who stunned everyone by beating Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa in the November 4 election, flew to Washington for the private sit-down on Friday. They discussed housing costs, rent control, grocery prices, and public safety, with Trump congratulating him and predicting success for all. The tone stayed warm even when past barbs like 'fascist' came up—Trump laughed it off and patted Mamdani's arm.#trump #zohranmamdani #msnbc #nyc

With Thanksgiving around the corner, the charitable giving season is upon us and changes are afoot. Of course, most people give because they want to do good, but the tax rules around philanthropy have always been an added sweetener.

The mission of DAFgiving360 is to increase charitable giving in the U.S. by providing a tax-smart and simple giving solution of a donor-advised fund (DAF) account and related philanthropic tools and guidance that empower donors to incorporate planning into their everyday lives.  Have a money question?

Boot barn. Com Columbia Sportswear. And many, many more. So welcome to the podcast, Harry.Harry 00:00:48  Thank you so much. Great to be here, Harry.Josh 00:00:50  I think what's interesting there, you mentioned, you know, you have a small firm, right? You're well experienced. Your results speak for themselves. If people go check out your LinkedIn profile, there's raving reviews of people that have worked with Harry.Josh 00:01:04  so, Harry 150, you know, companies are going to apply to kind of hire your services. What what are you looking for is you kind of determine what are the 50 you're going to work work with. What's the difference between those that you say no to versus the ones that you say yes to and why?Harry 00:01:22  Sure. It's a great question. well, so when people pitch us on a deal, so they pitch me into Alan and it's a little bit like if you've ever seen a concept pitched on Shark Tank, it's a little bit like that. Alan and I are very particular about the deals that we take, and I think I learned this watching entourage back in the, you know, 2000, 2008 through 12 or something that in Hollywood, the richest actors aren't the richest actors because they're the best actors. They're the richest actors because they get the best scripts. It's a lot like that as an e-commerce recruiter. So we like searches that can be closed on the back of a single story, right? So the brand, the you know, the client, they know what their business is about and who their business is for and what their unique selling proposition is.Harry 00:02:20  So why should anyone do business with them versus any option available to them? including doing nothing. we look for the underlying economics of the client's business. So do we understand how they make money? Do they understand how they make money? Do they understand how they're going to make money in the future? We tend to take a good hard look, at things like size and scope of a 12 month file. We'll look at things like average order value. We'll look at things like recurring revenue and order frequency. We'll look at, what it takes to actually bring that concept toe to life. You know, the purpose and values and viewpoint of the brand, and we'll look at a variety of different factors to try and determine whether our audience, which is the top 3% of people in the e-commerce industry. I mean, 97% of the candidates that watch this podcast aren't going to they're not we wouldn't represent them on a deal anyway because we're out there looking for load bearing walls. I mean, this sounds super salesy, but the fact of the matter is, when people come to me and Alan, they expect us to be in the organizational transformation business, right? You come to us looking for a Steph Curry, a Michael Jordan, a Tom Brady.Harry 00:03:41  That's that. And it is like being an agent in Hollywood and the best candidates in the industry, the people who are capable of plugging and playing and being a load bearing wall in our client's business, they want to make sure that they can do reputation enhancing work. That's really what it boils down to. And that means that in terms of the search, the client has the budget, the authority, the need, the timeline and the hiring process to knock good candidates in versus knock them out. And, the business has favorable underlying economics that the client has clarity and ability and resolve, you know, commitment towards e-com. And those are the things, honestly, that you need for an a player to do reputation enhancing work in your business.Josh 00:04:30  Yeah, I love the, the strategy that or the analogy that you made there with, you know, hiring like the Michael Jordan's or Steph Curry's right. If you think about that. You know, as a business owner. Right. If you want to attract a Michael Jordan or a Steph Curry.Josh 00:04:46  Right. If you're an NBA owner, you've got to have a good team. Right. And you've got to have a good vision and say, hey, here's the teammates that you'd be working alongside. ...

Christopher Bylone grew up on a New Jersey family farm where no one was above mucking stalls, and lending a hand wasn't optional. His grandfather, decades ahead of his time, taught him that inclusion wasn't a corporate policy; it was just what decent people did.Those lessons stuck. They carried Christopher from agriculture to analytics to becoming a respected voice in diversity, equity, and inclusion. When his company's diversity metrics stalled, he spoke up, “We have no strategy.” That bold truth redirected his entire career toward DEI leadership. He went on to build a team from zero headcount and zero budget into a million-dollar operation. On paper, he was thriving. But inside? He was the four letter “fine.”Working at Krispy Kreme, he loved the mission but dreaded the grind. Seventy-five percent of his time was spent executing instead of shaping strategy. Then came the layoff. And with it, the uncomfortable truth that “fine” had become his hiding place.That pattern didn't stop at work. After years of insisting he could lose weight on his own, Christopher realized grit wasn't enough. Well-meaning people told him to “just diet harder,” but he made a different choice and underwent bariatric surgery. It was a turning point that forced him to evaluate not only his habits but his relationships as well.Now, 90 pounds lighter with 30 left to go, he's learned that accepting help isn't weakness: it's wisdom. The people you surround yourself with can either hold space for your growth or keep you stuck in the old story. As a lifelong gardener, he'll tell you not everything that looks like a weed needs to be pulled. Sometimes, it just needs to be moved.Through therapy, reflection, and better boundaries, Christopher discovered that true friends don't have to agree with your decisions but they do have to respect them enough not to stand in your way.Christopher's hype song is “Proud” by Heather Small.

Smart leaders know trust is the backbone of a thriving workplace, and in today's hybrid whirlwind, it doesn't grow from quarterly updates or the occasional Slack ping. It grows from steady, human communication. Plenty of companies think they're doing great because they host all-staff meetings, keep “open door” policies, and throw the occasional team-building event. Meanwhile, leaders who truly care about culture are choosing better tools. That's where I come in. Forward-thinking organizations bring me in to create internal podcasts that connect people through real stories, honest conversations, and genuine community—your old printed newsletter reinvented for the way people actually work now. If you run, work for, or know a company ready to upgrade communication and strengthen culture, reach out at Lori@ZenRabbit dot com. Because when people feel heard, they engage. When they engage, they perform. And when they perform, the business succeeds beyond projections.
