Why has the stock market been so persistently resilient despite crises like COVID, wars, and inflation? Don and Tom explore whether the current generation of investors is simply too inexperienced to remember real bear markets—and what that means for the future. They reflect on market history, including the 2000–2009 “lost decade,” and warn against overconfidence and overconcentration in U.S. large caps. The episode covers lessons from diversification, the value of bonds, the illusion of wealth during bull markets, and listener questions about rebalancing strategies, tax-efficient withdrawals, and international fund choices.

Have you ever felt a quiet sense of pride after giving, like you were just a little more faithful than others?It's a subtle temptation, but one we must take seriously. When our giving becomes a way to elevate ourselves rather than glorify God, we've missed the heart of generosity—and possibly much more.When Giving Becomes About UsSelf-righteous giving hides behind good behavior. It's giving to feel morally superior. Giving to prove we're spiritually ahead. Giving to show God—or others—that we've “got it right.”Jesus addressed this in Luke 18:“Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector… The Pharisee… prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people… I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' But the tax collector… said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.' I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God.”The tithing, fasting Pharisee was not justified—not because his actions were wrong, but because he trusted in himself.The Heart CheckReligious acts, even impressive ones, can't save us. When we give to make ourselves look good, we risk trusting in our performance rather than Christ's finished work.There's nothing wrong with joy in giving—God loves a cheerful giver. But when joy turns to superiority, we've crossed the line. As Deuteronomy 8 reminds us:“Remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth…”Everything we have—even the ability to give—comes from Him.Giving That Glorifies GodJesus warns in Matthew 6 not to give for the sake of being noticed. True generosity is humble, often quiet, and motivated by gratitude. It's giving that reflects Christ, not ourselves.John the Baptist put it best: “He must increase, but I must decrease.”So, if you notice pride in your giving:Confess it to the Lord. His grace cleanses and corrects.Refocus on gratitude. Remember how much you've been forgiven.Practice hidden generosity. Give anonymously or where no one will notice.Before each gift, pray: “Lord, may this reflect You, not me.” Because generosity is never about proving ourselves—it's about responding to the One who gave everything for us.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 52 and currently have about 71% of my 401(k) invested in company stock, which has been generating returns of 30–36%. When and how should I begin diversifying to protect my retirement savings while still benefiting from my company's potential growth?My husband (62) and I (58) are debating whether to start collecting Social Security now. We still run our own business and earn an income, but I'm concerned about how starting Social Security could affect our Medicare coverage. What's the best strategy for our situation?I own and rent out a three-unit apartment building and want to know if there are any advantages to placing the property in an LLC.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Tax planning might be the most consequential part of your retirement plan... If you plan well, you could save yourself hundreds of thousands of dollars over your lifetime.

Chris calls it like he sees it—whether you like it or not. In this hour of Watchdog on Wall Street, Trump channels his inner John Gotti while Mark Cuban praises the Trump export tax. Chris breaks down the good, bad, and ugly of this policy and what it means for American business. Plus—the creeping “death” of capitalism, an ugly budget deficit, and why Social Security reform remains a political coulda-woulda-shoulda. Straight talk on policies, their market impact, and what you need to know for your investments.

Steve Forbes looks to the historical example of "X"—the pseudonym of George F. Kennan, who advanced the policy of containment that helped serve as a North Star for U.S. foreign policy for decades—to argue that we now need a new guiding principle to take us safely through our present confused, dangerous times.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Will the 1000 year flood in Southeast Wisconsin finally convince policymakers that the climate crisis is already impacting Wisconsin? The appropriate response would be to quickly enact the Climate Accountability Act, which requires Wisconsin for the first time to adopt an accountable climate action plan that cuts greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030 and maximizes the economic benefits especially for people in urban and rural areas currently locked out of economic opportunities. We encourage our listeners to contact their state legislators and urge them to support the new Climate Accountability Act We get into the weeds of the scandalous news that Ascension Wisconsin will outsource its ICU Doctors, further imperiling care for patents. This is what happens when you put big profit-maximizing monopolies in charge of health care with virtually no oversight. Robert tells us about developing state legislation to re-regulate the hospital industry in the public interest. Fair maps advocates are rightly appalled by the national gerrymandering fight instigated by President Trump and apparently matched by California Governor Gavin Newsom. But, is it realistic to ask Democrats to unilaterally disarm in the face of attempted authoritarian consolidation? Robert tells us that Ruth Conniff makes a strong case for holding onto the principle, but can progressives hold onto abstract norms in the face of the shredding of democratic norms by a would-be authoritarian movement? Robert argues that outcomes have moral consequences, and that pro-democracy forces must find a way to uphold the principles of democracy while being effective in preventing Trump and his MAGA allies from rigging the 2026 election. We close with an honest conversation about the short-sighted state budget, which leaves a structural deficit for the next two year budget, potentially forcing cuts to critical services even if the Democrats win a trifecta, unless they are willing to reverse decades of regressive tax cuts dolled out to corporations and the wealthy.

David starts by talking about the apocalyptic headwinds facing Social Security and Medicare and what it means for your retirement plan. The Social Security and Medicare trust funds are projected to be insolvent by 2033, with the combined Social Security trust fund gone by 2034. David explains why this isn't just a distant problem: Without intervention, roughly 70 million Americans will face major benefit cuts—23% for Social Security, 11% for Medicare. How this impacts you personally: If you're 59 today, you'll reach full retirement age right as the trust fund runs dry. If you're already retired, you may be affected in the next 8 years. David outlines the government's dilemma: Once the trust funds are depleted, benefits must be paid from incoming payroll taxes alone—which won't be enough to cover promised amounts. David shares why printing money isn't a fix. Social Security and Medicare are tied to inflation, so printing more money only drives costs up. Why taxing the rich is not the answer. Even if the government confiscated 100% of billionaire wealth, it would only fund the federal government for 11 months—not solve the long-term problem. David reveals what you can do now. Start saving as much as you can today. Even a small increase—automated every 6 months—can plug the future gap in your benefits. How to use tax-free accounts strategically. Roth IRAs, Roth 401(k)s, and properly structured life insurance can help shield your retirement from rising taxes. David explains that Roth withdrawals don't count as provisional income—keeping your Social Security potentially 100% tax-free. How to soften the blow of benefit cuts: Keeping your Social Security tax-free preserves more of your income and helps offset reductions in government programs. With Trump's tax cuts possibly extended, you could have until 2033 to shift your retirement savings while tax rates remain historically low. How to avoid future tax pain: David recommends shifting to tax-free accounts slowly enough to avoid “tax bracket heartburn,” but fast enough to finish before tax rates rise. Why aiming for the 0% tax bracket matters: If tax rates double in the future, two times zero is still zero. The less taxable income you have, the more secure your retirement.     Mentioned in this episode: David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com

The Red Dirt Agronomy Podcast team traveled to Wichita for High Plains Journal Live, where they sat down with Dr. Shannon Ferrell of Oklahoma State University. In this lively conversation, Dr. Ferrell dives deep into the realities of farm succession planning, from the traditional “farm kid vs. city kid” dilemma to the increasingly common “no heirs returning” challenge. He explains how recent legislative changes in the “One Big Beautiful Bill” affect payment limits for LLCs, estate tax exemptions, and spousal portability—critical details for farm families planning their future.The discussion also turns toward energy, with a look at the booming solar industry, the economics of battery storage, and what the phase-out of renewable tax credits might mean for rural Oklahoma. Dr. Ferrell offers a bold proposal for modernizing transmission easement compensation, encouraging landowner participation in much-needed infrastructure projects. Whether you're thinking about passing down your farm or eyeing new opportunities in renewable energy, this episode is packed with insights you can use.Key TakeawaysFarm transition planning is shifting from farm kid vs. city kid challenges to situations where no heirs return to the operation.LLCs can now receive combined payment limits for partners, removing a barrier to certain succession structures.Estate tax exemption rises to $15M per individual in 2026, with spousal portability ensuring up to $30M passes tax-free.Gift tax exclusions allow $19,000 per person annually without impacting the unified credit.Renewable energy development in Oklahoma remains strong despite upcoming tax credit phase-outs.Solar power costs have plummeted globally, with innovative uses emerging.Battery storage is now economically viable, making renewable power dispatchable.Phase-out of federal tax credits may alter investment patterns but likely won't halt projects.Transmission easement models may need modernization to include ongoing revenue for landowners.Distributed generation could reduce long-distance transmission needs, but grid resilience still requires infrastructure expansion.Timestamps00:00 – Live from High Plains Journal Live in Wichita, KS02:00 – Introducing the Dream Team of Dirt03:15 – Dr. Shannon Ferrell's summer speaking tour highlights04:39 – Farm succession planning: Farm kid vs. city kid dilemma06:32 – No heirs returning: options for farm asset transitions08:14 – “One Big Beautiful Bill” and changes to payment limits for LLCs09:14 – Estate tax updates and spousal portability explained13:49 – Gift tax rules and unified credit in farm succession15:15 – Tax provisions that impact transition planning15:46 – Renewable energy development: wind, solar, and batteries18:08 – Phase-out of renewable energy tax credits and industry impacts20:36 – Battery storage economics and dispatchable power22:15 – Tariffs, supply chains, and domestic manufacturing for energy tech25:18 – Transmission easements and incentivizing landowners27:38 – Distributed generation and grid resilience28:21 – Wrapping up the Summer Ferrell Tour   RedDirtAgronomy.com

When Adani first sought government approval for its Carmichael coalmine in Queensland, a major selling point was the company's pledge to deliver $22bn in taxes and royalties. While the mine is now smaller than originally planned, it still generates millions in revenue each year of operation and the Australian government has not received a single cent in corporate tax. Business editor Jonathan Barrett speaks to Reged Ahmad about how the company has generated a loss on paper and why it's time for a rethink on how we tax corporate wealth You can support the Guardian at theguardian.com/fullstorysupport

Tax season scams are nothing new, but David Maimon is tracking a worrying evolution. As head of Fraud Insights at SentiLink and a professor of fraud intelligence at Georgia State University, David has been studying how organised crime groups are now blending stolen identities with generative AI and deepfake technology to outpace traditional security measures. In this conversation, he explains how identities from some of the least likely victims, including death row inmates, are being exploited to open neobank accounts, set up fake businesses, and run sophisticated bust-out schemes with a low risk of detection. David breaks down how these operations work, from creating synthetic identities using stolen Social Security numbers to manufacturing convincing documents and faces that can pass liveness checks. He reveals the telltale signs his team uncovered, such as shared physical addresses, legacy email domains, and consistent digital fingerprints that point to coordinated fraud rings. With tools like DeepFaceLive, Avatarify, and cloned voices now being deployed to bypass authentication, he warns that the gap between criminal innovation and institutional defences can be as wide as 7 to 12 months. We also explore why financial institutions struggle to detect these scams early, and why layered verification, combining real-time checks with historical identity analysis, is essential. David shares the threats on the horizon, from increasingly realistic AI-generated images to voice cloning attacks, and stresses the need for both technological solutions and public awareness to slow the momentum of these schemes. Whether you work in banking, cybersecurity, or simply want to protect your own identity, this episode offers a rare look inside the tactics, tools, and vulnerabilities shaping the next wave of financial fraud. And yes, there is still time at the end for a great book recommendation and a classic Tom Petty track.

You might be able to before too long. Tax-protected retirement savings may soon allow riskier assets to be included in 401(k)s or 403(b)s, such as cryptocurrency accounts or private-equity investments. The gears for this were set in motion by presidential order yesterday, though the changes won't happen immediately. We'll learn more. And later in the program, we'll explore how tariffs are shaping business for both a Switzerland-based generic drugmaker and a Portland, Oregon-based building contractor.

If you've ever wondered why the economy feels stuck, even when it seems like there's a lot more money in the system, this episode will blow your mind. Political economist Ann Pettifor joins Nick and Goldy to explain why money isn't flowing like it used to, and why that matters. Over the last century, the velocity of money (how quickly a dollar circulates) has plummeted. Today, each dollar in circulation generates up to 70% less economic activity than it did just ten years ago, so it's not being circulated through the local economies, growing wages, and building small businesses with each transaction. Instead, new dollars are just frozen in place.  The culprit? Excess money sitting at the top—hoarded by the wealthy and corporations instead of getting spent. Pettifor shows that taxing the rich isn't just fair—it's pro-growth. Redistribution accelerates the velocity of money, unleashing demand, expanding markets, creating jobs, and ultimately boosting prosperity for everyone. If you're ready to reclaim the economy from its top-down chokehold, this back-to-basics episode isn't optional—it's essential. Ann Pettifor is a British political economist, author, and Director of Policy Research in Macroeconomics (PRIME). Known for correctly predicting the 2008 financial crisis, her work spans sovereign debt, macroeconomics, and sustainable development. She's the author of The Production of Money and The Case for the Green New Deal, and directs groundbreaking research that puts money creation and equitable growth at the center of economic policy.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Cary Carbonaro. A certified financial planner and author of Women and Wealth. 1. Guest Introduction: Cary Carbonaro Certified Financial Planner with 25+ years of experience. Leads a multimillion-dollar financial planning practice. Focuses on empowering women and increasing financial literacy. Promoting her second book: Women and Wealth. 2. Why Cary Wrote the Book To share her 25 years of experience working with women. To address the lack of female-friendly practices in the financial industry. Key stat: “By 2030, women will control two-thirds of the nation’s wealth—$30 trillion.” 4. Challenges in the Financial Industry Industry built by men, for men. Not ready for the shift in wealth ownership to women. Harvard Business Review (2009): “Financial services is the least sympathetic to women and has the most to gain if they get it right.” 5. Financial Planning Philosophy Everyone deserves a financial plan. Quote: “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” Financial planning includes: Risk management Cash flow Tax strategy Investments Retirement Estate planning 6. Making the Industry Female-Friendly Women often leave their financial advisors after a spouse dies (80% of the time). Reasons: lack of connection, poor communication, feeling ignored. Not a DEI issue, but a dollars and cents issue: “What other industry would ignore a $30 trillion opportunity?” 7. Stereotypes and Societal Expectations Women face pressure to look attractive in professional settings. Stereotypes persist in media and even in AI-generated images. Example: AI generated a man when asked for an image of a financial planner with long hair. 8. Cary’s Personal Journey Inspired by her father, a JPMorgan Chase executive. Grew up learning about money and finance. Built her business by focusing on women, not traditional male-dominated marketing. Quote: “Money equals power, and women need more of both.” 9. The Wealth Gap Beyond the wage gap, the wealth gap is driven by caregiving responsibilities. Termed the “good daughter/spouse penalty.” Lifetime cost to women: $1 million. 10. Call to Action Women should seek financial literacy and independence. Encourage planning before crisis hits. Quote: “Wealth gives you choices in life.”
