Summary: Not more than two weeks after we last spoke with Chris Simmons, the author of Castro's Nemesis, one of the Cuban spies he helped catch was released from prison. After serving 20 years, the Pentagon and Justice Department were focused on getting this spy a plea agreement, and she pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit espionage. Cooperation was difficult to foster in the early stages of interrogation, but through various strategies, their expert team was able to gradually gather information. Furthermore, Chris talks about international relations, and differing views amongst nations regarding what espionage comprises. Tune in for more insight from a master spycatcher.  Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Castro's Nemesis Book

Thank you so much for joining me. I know your time is so valuable, and so I am so honored to spend this time with you to talk to you about today common question that I get asked. Well, actually, no, it's not a common question, but it has been a question that I have been asked over the years by clients and followers, and listeners. And I was proposed with this idea as something that we really need to address. And so, here I am. And my goal is to always address the things that maybe aren't getting addressed if possible. And so, today we are going to talk about, what if I don't fit into the typical OCD subtype? So, what if my obsessions don't line up with the typical classifications and categories that we have for OCD? Ocd Subtypes So, for those of you who maybe are new to this idea, we have OCD as a general diagnosis. And then under that umbrella of the diagnosis, we have-- over the years, the clinical and OCD community have created subtypes of OCD to help us, number one, categorize different groups of obsessions so that we can then direct the treatment to being very specific. We also do that to build a sense of community so that you feel less alone. Let's say you have a harm obsession that can be very stigmatizing and feel very, very overwhelming, and you can have a lot of guilt and judgment about that for yourself. So, knowing you're in a category, in a group with other people can actually soften the blow of the stigma and the judgment around that obsession. Same goes for sexual obsessions, pedophilia obsessions, and so forth. Again, as a clinician, as I'm training my therapist, these subtypes are actually helpful so that we can help the newer therapists have a treatment plan specific to that person's obsession. However, what about the group of people who don't line up perfectly in those groups? And so, in today's episode, we're going to talk about what to do if that is you, what to do if you're a therapist and you're dealing with this, some skills that you might use, and maybe a few shifts and reframes here, I'll use some clinical research that may help you shift the way you look at this problem. And maybe we can even stop calling it a problem. We could actually not address it as a problem and actually move through that together. Okay?  Before we do that, let's get straight to the “I did a hard thing.” I haven't even read this hard thing you guys, so I'm as excited as can be. This one is from Hannah, and this is what Hannah had to say: “Earlier this year, I suffered a debilitating OCD episode that focused on harm OCD,” so, there we are, we have a subtype already explained, “Specifically the fear of sleepwalking or going crazy and harming my family. At the time, I had no idea I had OCD as I had always been told I was just an anxious person. So, this well and truly threw me to the point that I couldn't get off the couch, take my daughter to and from school or be alone. I wanted to admit myself into a mental health facility for fear that I was a real danger to my family and my daughter in particular. Long story short, after weekly ERP with a therapist and starting an SSRI, I did a very hard thing by being at home alone with my daughter for a whole weekend while my husband went away for work. I don't think I'd be able to do it and I had been feeling anxious for months prior to knowing it was coming. But I did it and I actually ended up enjoying our time together despite some fairly consistent rumination.” Hannah, oh my gosh, this is so good. You are such a walking billboard for how effective ERP and medication can be. I love that you did this. This is so good. And so, congratulations. I am so honored that you shared that with us. And look at you go. Look at you go. All right. Again, quickly, let's do the review of the week. This one is from Austin-mang, and they said: “I finally did it and signed up for therapy. My session is this Friday. I've been doing my best to prepare and was uncertain about what to expect my first session. This show helped me to know exactly what to expect and gave me some great mindset tools going in. Thank you!” Austin-mang, it sounds like you did a hard thing too. This is so wonderful. So, thank you guys for sharing your hard thing, and thank you so much for leaving a review. It does help me immensely build trust for those who are new to the show.  All right, let's get to it.  A Common Question: “I Dont Fit Into A Typical Ocd Subtype?” So, let's backtrack to the main concern here, which is what if I don't fit into a typical OCD subtype. Now, this is a hard thing for people, because not falling into that subtype can make it hard to be diagnosed. I was just thinking about this yesterday. Ten years ago or longer when I first started treating OCD – it's been nearly 15 years now – if you typed into Google “What if I harm my baby,” maybe one or two articles would come up, but you would find an article about OCD and then you would slowly, if you're able, get to treatment. Remember, our mission here is to reduce the amount of time it takes someone with OCD to get diagnosed and treated. Right now, it's seven to 14 years, which is absolutely horrendous, but we're getting better. We're getting better.  So, if you typed in “What if I harm my baby” or “What if I sinned,” you would probably come to an article that may lead you to, you may have OCD. What if I get sick and die? If you typed your what-if thought into Google, you'd probably find an article somewhere. But there are a group of people who if they typed their fear in, OCD would never come up. It would never show up on a Google search. If you told your doctor, they might not be able to identify this as OCD, because as far as we've come with educating, these subtypes have actually helped us educate doctors, nurses, teachers, and caregivers so that they can be more likely to pick up on children's and young adult's OCD. As much as we've done this, if you don't have those specific subtypes, it can make it very difficult to get diagnosed. The next piece here is a lot of people, and this is what I really hear a lot in my community online, on Instagram – if you follow me on Instagram, it's @YourAnxietyToolkit – is some people will say, “Because I don't fit into this subtype, I have a lot of doubt that I have OCD at all.” We know OCD is a doubting disorder, but often people with OCD even doubt, even if they fit into a subtype, they doubt that they have OCD. But if you don't fit into one of these categories that we've put, these loose categories that we've put, that can make it even harder to really double down with your treatment and feel confident in your provider and feel confident in your diagnosis and so forth.  There is a lot of times when people don't talk about their specific obsession, when it doesn't fall into that subtype in fear that someone would say, “You don't have OCD. You don't follow any of the subtypes.” And I'm sure maybe even some uneducated clinicians have shared that with their clients like, “No, you don't meet criteria because you don't meet a subtype.” And hopefully today we can actually get rid of that and hopefully resolve that issue. And what really comes and becomes apparent is, as we were talking before, let's go to the “I did a hard thing.” They said they had harm OCD. And as I said before, it can feel really validating to know you have your community like, “Oh, I have perinatal OCD.” So, you have your little-- you can find a group of people who have the same obsessions, and that can be really validating. It can be very, very comforting to feel like you have that community. But for those who don't feel like they fall into a subtype, they may actually feel quite isolated and alone, like unseen. And that doubt can really make it really difficult.  And what I thought was really interesting is somebody said to me, the doubt can make you feel that it really is about the content, not the OCD. So, remember, we're always talking about like, it's not about the content. The content doesn't matter. And in this case, they were saying, no, it really does feel like the content matters because if your content is within a category, well then you get that community, you get that reassurance. Not compulsive reassurance, but you get a little reassurance like, “This is OCD, you're on the right track, keep going.” So, I have such compassion. If you are somebody or your client is somebody who has an obsession that doesn't fall into these categories, let's really make sure we validate them. Let's really make sure we slow down to understand what that is like for them. Examples Of Ocd That Do Not Fit Into Traditional Subtypes Let's talk about some examples of what this might look like. So, examples of what it might look like if you don't fit into a typical OCD subtype might be: What if I picked the wrong name for my baby? Some people could go, “Oh, that's just a normal concern. Let's come up with a solution.” You know what I mean? That would be probably, “Let's work at making the right choice.” And I have had clients in the past who've gone as far as changing their baby's name multiple times. I've seen this case multiple times, trying to just figure out the solution. But you can see here, it's not a general fear. It's something that is repetitive and they can't seem to get rid of that uncertainty. And even if they do change it, the uncertainty still returns and it's very urgent. Again, we can really see that's OCD. Clear and clean OCD. It's got the obsession, it's got an urgent compulsion that is repetitive, that causes distress. It doesn't line up with their values. So typically OCD. Some people have obsessions about the weather and whether they'll enjoy the weather. And you might immediately think, well, again, that doesn't sound like OCD. But again, let's look, it doesn't matter about the content, it matters on the process. Is this person ruminating about this a lot? Are they stuck on trying to find the correct answer or the answer that resolves their uncertainty? Is there an incredible amount of distress? Are they trying to solve this with urgency? If that is the case, we have a very clean and clear case of OCD.  I've had clients who've spent a lot of time obsessing and compulsing over the nail color that they picked or whether nail-- simple things like things they've chosen for their body – tattoos and so forth. And again, we could say that's a generalized anxiety or that's a common concern, but if it's done repetitively and urgently and it's causing them an extreme amount of distress, and it's often targeted around uncertainty or anxiety or disgust, clean and clear OCD.  Some clients I've had have said, “What if I don't remember something the way that it actually was? What if I can't remember it the exact way that it was? What if I lose a part of the memory?” Now, this might show up around, let's say the loss of a loved one. What if I don't remember them? And we might say that is a total normal stage of grief, except this person is trying to solve this memory issue repetitively, urgently over and over again, struggling in massive amounts of distress. The uncertainty of this is really destroying them. And again, clean and clear case of meeting criteria for OCD, but they don't seem to make these into these categories. They don't seem to slide into a category.  I've had patients have obsessions about whether their partner cheats on them, and we could say, “Oh, well, they were probably--” in some cases, they have been cheated on before and we go, “That makes complete sense that they would worry about that. That's not OCD.” But we look at the presentation and it goes far beyond generalized anxiety. It goes far beyond daily normal anxiety concerns for that situation. Again, it could become massive amounts of reassurance-seeking, rumination, avoidance, compulsions, self-criticism, self-punishment. And we can see that the way these compulsions are playing out meet criteria for OCD. And you might even say there, “Well, that's kind of relationship OCD.” But that fits into the category. And we could argue that maybe you're right, but I really wanted to highlight how often. Let's say, if the partner had cheated on them and they're having this obsession, usually, people would not put it in the category of relationship OCD because the partner had cheated on them or because a family member had cheated on their partner and they were somewhat traumatized by that event. We can sometimes miss cases because it doesn't fall into a category.  I've had people and clients who've worried obsessively and compulsively about their thought, what if my child suffers? What if my child goes through hard times? And again, we would go, “Oh, that makes complete sense. Every parent feels that. Every parent worries about that.” But then again, it crosses a line into massive amounts of rumination, massive amounts of checking, massive amounts of reactivity. It might not even be that it's the typical compulsions. It might be just a great deal of reactivity done because the uncertainty of this is so overwhelming.  I've had patients have obsessions about their taxes. What if they weren't done correctly? They go back and they check them and then they go back and have a second opinion, and then they-- and again, we could say, “Well, isn't that kind of like a bit of a moral obsession?” But when we ask the patient, they might say, “No, it's not about that. It's just about the fact that it's uncertain.” Again, doesn't fit into a typical subtype. One other example I have is a lot of patients I've had have had the obsession, how will I know when it's time to stop therapy? Now that's a common rational concern. That's actually a really good question to ask. Well, how will I know? But again, the obsession is excessive and causing them great distress. They spend a lot of time trying to figure it out. They can't figure it out. There is no solution. The uncertainty is so overwhelming and overbearing and painful, they end up doing a lot of compulsions.  And so, there we have all of these examples, and I'm sure you probably have more of where your obsession doesn't fit into a typical subtype but is so clearly OCD.  So, here is what I want to offer you. In this case, I'm going to give you the answer up front, and then we're going to work through it together. The truth is, the subtypes really don't matter. The only reason they matter is they help with treatment and they help with validation in helping people to feel not alone. But we must remember that nowhere in the criteria for OCD does it say you have to have a subtype. The only criteria you need to have is to have an obsession, a repetitive thought, feeling, sensation, urge, or image. And that obsession has to create a lot of distress in your life and can impact your functioning. Not always, but it can. And then must contain compulsions. And the compulsions are either covert or overt, meaning they're behavioral, they're physical, or they're mental. They must cause a lot of distress in your life. They must take a certain amount of time. And if you meet that criteria, that's all we really need for you to move forward with your recovery, and I want to encourage you to move forward as fast as you can. Try not to get caught up. Remember the subtypes. Just think about me being a therapist who trains staff. I have ERP School, which is our online course. That is for people who don't have face-to-face therapy, who don't have access to therapy, who want to learn how to structure ERP for themselves. I talk a lot about subtypes there, but only because it's an education tool to help people get direction for their treatment. But if you don't meet that criteria, that means nothing about whether you can recover or not. So, that's the main point, and now we're going to talk about how we can do this. Now, first, before we do this, I actually want to introduce to you something that is a science-based measurement tool we use for OCD that may be very validating to you folks if you don't have a specific subtype that you fall into that category. Dimensional Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Jon Abramowitz)  Now, Jon Abramowitz and his team has created what he calls the Dimensional Obsessive-Compulsive Scale. If you Google it, it should come up. I will do my best to link it in the show notes. And this ultimately doesn't have anything about subtypes. It really just has four categories of concerns that people with OCD have. And what I found so wonderful about that is if we throw out all the subtypes and we just look at the symptoms, we look at the process that someone with OCD goes through, you'll probably find you fall into one of these categories. If you don't, still don't worry because-- but I think that this is-- I love the way that they've really put this together because it simplifies everything. It makes it a whole lot less confusing. So, let's go through them together.  Number one, category 1 is concerns about germs and contamination, and they go through to explain that. If you download it, you'll get more information about this.  Category 2 - concerns about being responsible for the harm, injury, or bad luck. And so, for that one, that includes harm OCD, it includes religious obsessions, self-harm OCD, moral obsessions. A lot of those subtypes can fall into these little categories, but I like that these are really basic.  The third is simple, unacceptable thoughts. And in these cases of people with OCD that don't fit into the subtypes, we could easily just say, “You fall into the unacceptable thoughts category, that these thoughts are unacceptable to you. The uncertainty is unacceptable to you.”  And then the fourth category is concerns about symmetry, completeness, and the needs for things to be just right. And what I think is so helpful about that is so often these cases where they don't fall into these more typical subtypes, I find often they do fall into somewhere around this idea of the need for things to be completed or just right or resolved. Hopefully, this Dimensional Obsessive-Compulsive Scale helps catch a net underneath all of these subtypes that can validate you, that you still fall under the category of having OCD, that you can still move forward with your treatment. You go full fledged into your ERP and move forward ultimately.  Ocd Vs General Anxiety Disorder (Gad)  Now, that being said, we also need to look at the overlap, or maybe we should actually say the spectrum of where generalized anxiety can meet OCD. Some of these, as we said, some of these obsessions fall under maybe that's more generalized anxiety, but we know that you could have generalized anxiety fears. But if they're presenting with obsessions and compulsions, we're actually going to treat it like OCD. And some people – I've actually really loved the OCD community – are now arguing that general anxiety and OCD are the same thing, just on a spectrum, from not so severe to very, very severe. And they're doing that. People with generalized anxiety are doing obsessions, having obsessions, and doing compulsions. The biggest one being mental rumination and avoidance.  So, let's round this out by talking about what to do now. So, if this is you, here is what I want you to remember. At the end of the day, and this is what I say to my clients, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter what we call this. We could call your set of symptoms bibbidi-bobbidi-boo, and we would still use the same tools to get you effective results because what do we know? It doesn't matter. Whatever the content is, what do we know is the problem that you're struggling to manage the uncertainty that you're having, that you're having a great deal of distress and discomfort, and we need tools to be able to manage and ride that out.  So, again, if we call it this specific subtype, we call it OCD, we call it generalized anxiety, we call it bibbidi-bobbidi-boo, at the end of the day, they all require us to stop trying to suppress the thought because we know suppressing the thoughts make it worse. And then we can practice exposing ourselves to the situations where those thoughts come up without doing those compulsions. So, if you've taken ERP School or you're interested in taking ERP School, we go thoroughly through what ERP is, which is exposure and response prevention. What it is, is that we expose you to the thought and fear and the obsession that you're having. And then we practice, slowly but surely, reducing – this is called response prevention – reducing the compulsive behaviors that you do that reinforce that fear and obsession. That's ERP. It's actually pretty structured. We walk you through it in ERP School, but if you have an ERP therapist, they're going to walk you through identifying your obsession, even if it doesn't meet those categories, identifying what is your fear, and then practicing, exposing you to the life that you want to live, whether that fear shows up or not, and then practicing reducing those compulsions. The process of treatment is the same, disregarding the subtype, whether you have a subtype that you fall into or not. It is effective either way.  Ideal Treatments For Ocd And so, what I'm going to encourage you to do, and I'm just going to think of this as me finishing out the podcast, but giving you some direction, is if you meet criteria for OCD, and that involves doubting your disorder-- I remember once John Hirschfeld when I was training to become an OCD therapist. He said to me, if he had his way, he would add to the criteria for OCD that you must doubt your disorder because it's so common for people with OCD to doubt whether they have the disorder. So, here we want to do is we want to have a plan where ERP is the meat and cheese of your treatment. And what you can do then is supplement treatment with either acceptance and commitment therapy, self-compassion, mindfulness. Sometimes people use DBT. There are new supplements coming to treatment all the time, which is wonderful, but the meat and cheese is to make sure you're doubling down on that exposure and then the reduction of those compulsions. Okay?  My message to you is you can still 100% recover from this disorder. Look at the “I did a hard thing” today and look at the review even, talking about the benefits of practicing ERP. So, that's what I want you to focus on.  If you don't have access to an ERP therapist, we have a course available to you. It's $197, which is actually less than one session with any of my staff or most ERP therapists. That is about seven hours long and will walk you through this process. So, if you're interested, head over to CBTSchool.com. The course is called ERP School and hopefully, it will give you the tools and the education you need to feel like you can get the ball going here, even if you don't fit these typical subtypes.  Okay, that's all I have to say about that. I hope that this has been absolutely jam-packed with helpful skills for you to learn. I hope it absolutely validated your concern if, in fact, this is a concern that you have, and it is my honor to be on this journey with you.  So, as I always say at the end of almost every episode, it is a beautiful day to do hard things. Thank you so much again for supporting me. I just adore sending out these free resources for you and hopefully filling up your cup if your cup is feeling very empty. Please also, one thing I should have said, be gentle guys. OCD and anxiety in general can be a mean beast in our minds. And one of the best antidotes to that can be kindness, gentle self-care, loving, nurturing presence. And so, I hope that's what I am for you and I hope that is what you are for you as well.  Have a wonderful day, everybody.

SUMMARY Not just another rags-to-riches story, “Unstoppable” by Joshua M. Greene is the unbelievable true story of “Siggi B. Wilzig’s Astonishing Journey from Auschwitz Survivor and Penniless Immigrant to Wall Street Legend.” Initially reluctant to write another dark Holocaust-survivor story, Greene, was surprised to find the post-Auschwitz life of Siggi B. Wilzig full of great hope. A force of nature, this Holocaust survivor not only became a business behemoth in both the oil and banking industries but also a powerful example of how to live every day fully, joyfully, and generously. “This is a book that will make you feel good about being an American,” says Greene. “He saw this as a place that gave immigrants a chance, a place where character was vaulted as a noble quality over cunning and cutthroat business practice.” According to Greene, what Siggi would want us to know today is to never give in to despair; never give in to the darkness. In our time, when heroes are in short supply, Siggi provides hope and heroism. SIGGI’S SALIENT QUALITIES Strong self-confidence that rebuffed any type of intimidation Early awareness of how adults thought and behaved Belief in the Almighty Authentic interest in caring for humanity Love of life (joie de vivre) Wicked sense of humor Drive for learning Foxlike intuition Fierce loyalty Extreme generosity Unstoppable! BUY Unstoppable: Siggi B. Wilzig's Astonishing Journey from Auschwitz Survivor and Penniless Immigrant to Wall Street Legend RECOMMENDATIONS Check out The Blue Card, an organization founded by Siggi's daughter Sherry Wilzig to provide support and assistance to Holocaust survivors suffering from cancer.

Welcome to Finance and Fury, The Say What Wednesday Edition I've been looking at Soul Patt (ASX: SOL) recently as I've heard some commentators refer to them as the "Australian Berkshire Hathaway" but noticed they have underperformed the ASX200 index over the last 12 months. As they have overperformed over any other longer-term period, would you see this as an opportunity to buy in? And what do you think about this particular stock? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Thanks, Gab Disclaimer – not advice – general discussion in nature – seek personal advice Washington H. Soul Pattinson and Company Limited – call it SOL for short - is an Australian investment company - SOL invests in a portfolio of assets across a range of industries - main business activities include ownership of shares; coal mining; gold and copper mining and refining; property investment; and consulting. While the broader market gained around 25% in the last year - SOL lost 16% (even including dividends) Keep in mind that even the best stocks will sometimes underperform the market over a twelve month period Long term shareholders have made money, with a gain of 14% per year over half a decade So, is the recent sell-off an opportunity to buy in? worth checking the fundamental data for signs of a long term growth trend I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance Not always the same thing - to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risks of the underlying companies or the changes in forecasted earnings One thing – not too correlated to historical crashes – losses minimal in 2008/09 and other corrections But has just gone through a loss in price Also note – is a High conviction investment operator – Similar to Monday’s episode -   Current Investments - SOL invests in a range number of companies across a variety of industries. In addition to a large diversified listed and unlisted portfolio, their larger investments are: TPG Telecom (ASX: TPM) is a force in the Australian telecommunications industry – 25.3% shareholding New Hope Group (ASX: NHC) is an Australian owned and operated diversified energy company which has been proudly based in South East Queensland for more than 60 years – 61% shareholding Brickworks Limited (ASX: BKW) - main business is the manufacture and distribution of clay and concrete products, property development and realisation, and investments - 43.9% shareholding Australian Pharmaceutical Industries (ASX: API) is one of Australia’s leading health and beauty companies. API has a number of brands and banners in the retail health and beauty industry, including Priceline, Soul Pattinson and Pharmacist Advice. – 19.3% SHAREHOLDING BKI Investment Company Limited (BKI) is a Listed Investment Company on the Australian Securities Exchange. - 8.6% holding Round Oak is a mining and exploration company focused primarily on copper, zinc and gold – 100% shareholding Milton Corporation Limited (ASX:MLT) is an Australian Listed Investment Company which aims to invest in a diversified portfolio of assets to generate growing dividends and increased value of assets – 3.8% shareholding Apex Healthcare Berhad (APEX.MK) is a leading healthcare group with operations in Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam and Myanmar. Apex is publicly listed on the Main Board of Bursa Malaysia – 30.3% holding TPI Enterprises Limited (ASX:TPE) is one of nine companies licensed worldwide to manufacture narcotic raw material for the international pharmaceutical industry – 20% shareholding Ampcontrol Pty Limited is a leading international supplier of electrical and electronic products with a strong presence in providing products and services to the mining sector – 43.3% Pitt Capital Partners is an independent corporate advisory firm with a track record of completing successful corporate transactions. Since inception, they have advised some of Australia’s most successful companies on over $10 billion worth of transactions – 100% Clover Corporation Limited (ASX: CLV) is an Australian research-based company dedicated to providing quality lipid based products which enhance the health and well-being of the community – 22.6% shareholding Has got 75% of holdings in 3 companies though – New Hope Corp, TPG and Brickworks Large holding in New Hope Corp – which is a thermal coal mining – the loss of value from their shares seems to have come mainly from a drop in price from over $4 a year ago, to about $1.80 now. Comparison to Berkshire Hathaway – owns majority (100% or above 90%) of 71 companies Not the same as Berkshire Hathaway – would say closer to a high conviction LIC Is it a good share? Growing DPS and EPS In his essay The Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville (back to high conviction and value managers) Warren Buffett described how share prices do not always rationally reflect the value of a business. By comparing earnings per share (EPS) and share price changes over time, we can get a feel for how investor attitudes to a company have morphed over time. Over half a decade, SOL managed to grow its earnings per share at 13% a year. This EPS growth is higher than the 10% average annual increase in the share price. So it seems the market isn’t so enthusiastic about the stock these days – Shares can act as trends – but like fashion, can be in and out - It’s probably worth noting we’ve seen significant insider buying in the last quarter, which we consider a positive. Share price drops – so those on the inside of the company buy up more But the earnings and revenue growth trends are even more important factors to consider What About Dividends? As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR incorporates the value of any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings, along with any dividends, based on the assumption that the dividends are reinvested. So for companies that pay a generous dividend, the TSR is often a lot higher than the share price return. As it happens, Washington H. Soul Pattinson’s TSR for the last 5 years was 89%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. This is largely a result of its dividend payments! – has had stable dividend payments – growing Payout ratios - Companies (usually) pay dividends out of their earnings. If a company is paying more than it earns, the dividend might have to be cut. Comparing dividend payments to a company’s net profit after tax is a simple way of reality-checking whether a dividend is sustainable. In the last year, Washington H. Soul Pattinson paid out 56% of its profit as dividends. This is a fairly normal payout ratio among most businesses. It allows a higher dividend to be paid to shareholders, but does limit the capital retained in the business – which could be good or bad. In addition to comparing dividends against profits, we should inspect whether the company generated enough cash to pay its dividend. Washington H. Soul Pattinson paid out 80% of its cash flow last year. This may be sustainable but it does not leave much of a buffer for unexpected circumstances. It’s encouraging to see that the dividend is covered by both profit and cash flow. This generally suggests the dividend is sustainable, as long as earnings don’t drop precipitously.   Net tangible assets per share - $13.76   Return on Equity - ROE has a ROE of 8.0%, based on the last twelve months. Another way to think of that is that for every A$1 worth of equity in the company, it was able to earn A$0.08. Return on Equity = Net Profit (from continuing operations) ÷ Shareholders’ Equity 8.0% = AU$359m ÷ AU$4.5b (Based on the trailing twelve months to July 2019.) It’s easy to understand the ‘net profit’ part of that equation, but ‘shareholders’ equity’ requires further explanation. It is all earnings retained by the company, plus any capital paid in by shareholders. Shareholders’ equity can be calculated by subtracting the total liabilities of the company from the total assets of the company. What this means - ROE measures a company’s profitability against the profit it retains, and any outside investments. The ‘return’ is the yearly profit. That means that the higher the ROE, the more profitable the company is. So, all else equal, investors should like a high ROE. That means ROE can be used to compare two businesses. Is it good? Compare it to the industry average – but far from perfect here due to the nature of their business – Oil and Gas is 15% But – has low debt - debt to equity ratio of just 0.088, which is very low. I’m not impressed with its ROE, but the debt levels are not too high, indicating the business has decent prospects. Careful use of debt to boost returns is often very good for shareholders. However, it could reduce the company’s ability to take advantage of future opportunities. Has had good long term performance - Stock pickers are generally looking for stocks that will outperform the broader market. And in our experience, buying the right stocks can give your wealth a significant boost. SOL shareholders have enjoyed a 63% share price rise over the last half decade, well in excess of the market return of around 23% (not including dividends). Summary – Not advice - may be beneficial to hold long term – as short term may continue a decline if their major holdings go down Major risks – coal business continues to decline, TPG gets beat out by TLS or Optus, or property takes a hit – which would impact brickworks   Thanks for the question Gab Thank you for listening to today's episode.

Summary - Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness. For we all stumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle his whole body. If we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well. Look at the ships also: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs. So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things.How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell. For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by mankind, but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so. Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and salt water? Can a fig tree, my brothers, bear olives, or a grapevine produce figs? Neither can a salt pond yield fresh water. James 3:1-12
