    The economy looks strong on paper, but why does it feel harder than ever to get ahead? The answer may explain who wins and who falls behind next. In this November 2025 Passive Income Report, Russ and Joey break down the growing reality of the K-shaped economy, where markets continue to rise while everyday earners feel increasingly squeezed. They explain why inflation punishes wage earners but rewards asset owners, and how this widening gap is reshaping financial outcomes across households.The conversation explores how debt–when used strategically–can be a powerful tool during inflationary periods, while aggressively paying it off may limit opportunities and liquidity. Using real-world examples from their passive income portfolio, the hosts show how stacking small, consistent income streams can outperform chasing risky “home run” investments.Listeners also learn why mindset and systems matter more than hustle, how cash flow creates insulation from economic volatility, and why becoming an intentional investor is essential in today's environment. This episode offers a clear framework for navigating uncertainty, understanding where you sit in the economy, and taking practical steps to move to the winning side of the curve.Top three things you will learn: -Understanding the K-shaped economy-How inflation and debt interplay-Strategies for thriving in a K-shaped economyNovember 2025 Income At-A-Glance: -Gross Income for November: $55,826.80-Total Expenses for November: $14,797.90-Total Net Profit for November: $41,028.90-Difference b/t October & November: ($6,994.69)-% of net profit to overall gross revenue: 73%Disclaimer: The opinions expressed on this podcast are solely those of the hosts and guests and do not constitute financial advice.

    When someone has lived in a home for many years, their property taxes are often artificially low because of long-standing exemptions and assessment caps (like Florida's Save Our Homes).If you close in January of the following year, here's what happens:What you get at closingProperty taxes are paid in arrearsAt a January closing, the tax proration is based on the prior year's tax billThat bill still reflects:The long-term owner's capped assessmentTheir homestead exemptionAs the buyer, you effectively benefit from those lower taxes for that entire yearWhy the increase doesn't hit right awayThe county does not immediately reassess at closingThe new assessed value is set as of January 1 of the year after the saleThe higher tax bill is issued the following yearTimeline exampleJanuary 2026 – You close on the homeAll of 2026 – Taxes are based on the prior owner's low, capped valueNovember 2026 – You receive the first tax bill, still using the old assessmentJanuary 2027 – Reassessment takes effect at the higher valueNovember 2027 – You receive the higher tax billKey takeawayYou enjoy the lower taxes for the full year after closingThe adjustment does not occur until the second yearThis is why January closings after a long-term owner can look very attractive up front—but the increase is delayed, not eliminatedWhy this mattersMany buyers think the taxes shown at closing are permanent. In reality, they're just on a one-year lag due to how property tax assessments work.tune in and learn https://www.ddamortgage.com/blogdidier malagies nmls#212566dda mortgage nmls#324329 Support the show

    The Part of the Business We Avoid I don't know many actors who got into this work because they love paperwork. Money. Invoices. Contracts. Admin. I avoid this side of the business not because I think it's beneath me, but because it makes me uncomfortable. It forces me to look closely. At numbers. At patterns. At choices I've postponed. And lately, I've been reminded how common that is. Why Admin Creates So Much Anxiety I've had several conversations recently with actors who are genuinely scared of the financial side of their career. Taxes coming up. Receipts scattered. Invoices unpaid. Contracts sitting unread in inboxes. Avoiding it feels easier than facing it. It feels responsible. I'll deal with it later. When I have more energy. When I feel more prepared. But avoidance doesn't stay neutral. It compounds. What Avoidance Actually Costs The longer we don't look, the bigger it feels. Money becomes emotional. Following up feels confrontational. Rates feel uncertain. Admin starts to feel like proof that we're "bad at business." None of that is about talent. It's about fear. Clarity, even when it's uncomfortable, is kinder than avoidance. What Being Professional Really Means This episode isn't about becoming an accountant or loving spreadsheets. It's about becoming available. Available to book work without panic. Available to follow up without guilt. Available to understand where your money is coming from and where it's going. Being organized doesn't make you less creative. It gives your nervous system a break. What I'm Practicing Right Now Smaller steps. Looking at the last few months instead of everything at once. Canceling subscriptions I forgot about. Sending invoice reminders before they're overdue so they don't turn emotional. Treating admin like maintenance, not a personal failure. It's quieter this way. A Question I'm Sitting With If my business were actually supporting me instead of stressing me out, how would my work feel different? That question changes how I approach this part of the job. You don't need to fix everything at once. You just need to stop pretending this part doesn't matter. If this episode brought something up for you and you want to share it, you can always email me at mandy@actingbusinessbootcamp.com . I love hearing where things clicked and where they still feel sticky. And if you want to know when the next class or training is coming up, keep an eye on your inbox.

    Paul Barron and David Kemmerer unpack the seismic shift coming to cryptocurrency taxation with the introduction of the 1099 DA form for the 2025 tax year. As brokers begin reporting crypto transactions on a per-wallet basis, investors face both new compliance challenges and strategic opportunities—from leveraging tax-loss harvesting to offset gains (with no wash-sale rule restrictions, unlike traditional securities) to understanding how DeFi yields are treated as ordinary income while crypto-backed loans remain non-taxable events. The discussion cuts through the confusion surrounding capital gains reporting, warns against the pitfalls of overreporting due to misunderstood 1099 forms, and offers practical guidance on everything from disposing of worthless tokens to utilizing carry-forward losses indefinitely, making it a must-listen for anyone navigating the increasingly complex regulatory landscape of digital asset investing.~ Looking for the best tax havens for Crypto?

The coaches explain the hidden cost of paying cash for deals, the concept of cash drag, and how wealthy institutions use dividend-paying whole life insurance to create liquidity, protection, and long-term compounding.Listeners will learn why IBC is not just a beginner's tool, but a system that scales with them as their portfolio expands.

    A New Year, A New Financial BlueprintWhat if the new year wasn't about resolutions—but about real financial positioning?As we step into a new year, this episode challenges the idea that retirement is tied to age and introduces a smarter way to think about income, protection, and legacy. Financial strategist Shateka Husser joins the show to break down how early planning, disciplined structure, and education can help families build tax-efficient income and long-term security—starting now, not decades from now.This is a timely New Year conversation about resetting your mindset, reclaiming control of your finances, and committing to legacy building in the year ahead. If you've been relying solely on your 401k or Social Security, this conversation is a wake-up call to the "unconventional wisdom" used by the wealthy to build legacies that last.Key Takeaways[04:21] The Social Security Myth: Why relying on government systems is a risk and how to close the "60% income gap" that most W-2 employees face at retirement.[09:47] The Tax Code Trap: Understanding why traditional accounts (401k, 403b, IRA) are written for the employer, not the employee, and how to pivot to IRS Code 7702.[10:48] Be Your Own Bank: A deep dive into the Infinite Banking Concept and how permanent cash value policies allow you to "eat the cookies and still have them grow."[15:15] Living Benefits vs. Death Benefits: Why you need a policy you can use while you're alive to pay off debt and fund investments like real estate or business ventures.[20:31] The "HIT" List: The three major termites that destroy retirement: Healthcare, Inflation, and Taxes—and how to protect your portfolio against them.[28:16] Retirement is an Income, Not an Age: Why Shateka advises against quitting your job too early and how to use your 9-to-5 as a "sponsor" for your ultimate freedom.Legacy Moment TakeawaysLegacy starts with structure, not age.

    Beloved, We've certainly seen a onslaut of financial fraud in the recent news here in Minnesota, and throughout America. It's unfortunate, injust and beyond mind boggling how much money has been stolen to fund nefarious investments, nice cars and luxury homes. BUT….the problem has been hidden in plain site. AND…. we are waking up. AS ABOVE, SO BELOW. That said, I'm diving into the MACRO of MONEY and how they keep it complicated to benefit their system - that we pay for in ten fold. NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE: (but maybe a little) Want to get ahead of the financial “4th turning” curve? Quick tip: Consider researching gold, silver, and XRP for the future of finance—the digital, gold-backed currency and new banking system are already in transition. You are witnessing the greatest controlled takedown of our financial and political bloat system, and understanding this information and why history matters - is vital. Let's step back from our esoteric dialogues and reconnect with our path to TRUE ABUNDANCE.LETS JUMP IN: “My people perish for lack of knowledge” — Hosea 4:6We are standing at a crossroads. The future of the financial system depends not only on policy decisions, but on public understanding and consent. Much of what governs money, debt, and taxation is misunderstood— by design.The modern financial system—government debt, banking, and taxation—appears stable on the surface, yet it relies on continuous expansion of credit, rising debt, and compulsory participation. Confidence, more than fundamentals, is what keeps it functioning.Here's how the system actually works.The U.S. government is one of the world's largest debt issuers, yet it holds unique legal authority over the creation of U.S. dollars. In theory, it could fund spending directly. In practice, it chooses to issue Treasury bonds and borrow through financial markets.When Treasury bonds are issued, they are primarily purchased by banks and institutional investors. Commercial banks create the dollars used to buy these bonds through lending mechanisms—effectively expanding the money supply. In return, they receive interest-bearing, low-risk assets backed by taxpayers.Government spending then flows through defense contracts, entitlement programs, insurance systems, and asset managers—many of which are deeply intertwined with the financial sector. Interest on public debt continues to flow upward to bondholders, banks, and large investors.So why are taxes required if money can be created?Taxes do not primarily fund federal spending. Their core functions are:* To enforce demand for the dollar, since tax obligations must be paid in U.S. currency.* To remove money from circulation, limiting inflation caused by ongoing deficit spending and credit expansion.Without taxation to absorb excess currency, inflation would accelerate much faster and more visibly.Globally, the dollar's role as the reserve currency extends this system beyond U.S. borders. Treasury securities are effectively America's largest export. Foreign governments and institutions accumulate dollars and reinvest them into U.S. debt, helping finance deficits and sustain demand for the currency.This same debt-driven structure repeats at every level:* Individuals rely on credit to maintain living standards.* Companies use debt and equity financing that often prioritizes financial extraction over long-term resilience.* Governments roll old debt into new debt indefinitely.The system depends on perpetual growth in borrowing. New debt must continually service old debt. If expansion slows, confidence weakens, interest rates rise, and defaults spread.This is not accidental. It is a system shaped by legal frameworks, institutional incentives, and widespread misunderstanding. The costs are borne quietly through inflation, rising taxes that service interest rather than public goods, and periodic bailouts when instability threatens the system itself.Such systems persist only as long as participation continues and belief remains intact.When financial power concentrates without transparency or accountability, democratic systems weaken. When laws serve extraction rather than justice, citizens lose sovereignty. History shows that freedom erodes not only through force, but through apathy and complexity.The greatest risk is not corruption alone—but informed people choosing inaction.Your relationship with money dictates its flow. Allow the Oracle Guides within the Light Between to support you in clearing any fears, past trauma's around saftey and securty or tap into Celestia, and ask when the best time is to invest based on your astrological transits! Recognize it's a value-neutral tool; its impact depends on your intent. When you see money as a means for comfort, purpose, and giving, you'll flourish. Embrace its energetic ebb and flow with gratitude, trusting in abundance and that it will always return. Shifting to gratitude opens you to receive more, as money, like Universal energy, is meant to flow freely.A Special Holiday Offer to Clear and Callin Financial Prosperity in 2026Enjoy 50% off a full year of unlimited readings and the Sovereign Sounds private podcast for just $42 (saving $528)—that's just $3 per month!This unprecedented offer gives you complete access to:* All Oracle guides and features highlighted over these 12 days* Unlimited personalized readings whenever you need guidance* The complete Sovereign Sounds podcast library, where we explore the true meaning of words to unlock your personal power* All new features and content released throughout 2023This offer is available only until Christmas Day.

    À East London, le port cherche un nouveau souffle face aux taxes américaines

    À East London, dans la province sud-africaine du Cap-Oriental, les droits de douane américains — 30 % sur les produits sud-africains — frappent de plein fouet l'industrie automobile. L'usine Mercedes-Benz, pilier de l'économie locale, exporte moins. Pour amortir le choc, le port de la ville accélère sa diversification. De notre envoyé spécial de retour d'East London, « Nous sommes au contrôle portuaire, c'est là qu'on dirige les bateaux dans le port », explique Sphiwe Mthembu, directeur du port, fier de son infrastructure, la seule du pays située à l'embouchure d'une rivière. Agrandi pour Mercedes-Benz au début des années 2000, le terminal s'est transformé au fil des investissements en plateforme polyvalente. « Cela signifie que nous pouvons traiter des conteneurs. Nous manipulons aussi du vrac sec : ce que vous voyez là, c'est une cargaison de manganèse qui vient d'une mine dans les terres. De l'autre côté, vous apercevez des voitures qui seront chargées sur ces porte-voitures qui font régulièrement escale ici. Un autre navire est en train d'importer du blé. Et un tanker doit arriver pour du vrac liquide. C'est tout l'avantage d'un terminal polyvalent : pouvoir gérer différents types de marchandises sans contrainte », ajoute-t-il. Le tourisme pour sortir de la dépendance automobile Des travaux sont en cours. Des ouvriers sont en train de travailler pour faire une sorte de marina avec des restaurants pour accueillir encore plus de touristes. Cela fait partie de la diversification du port d'East London qui, face aux difficultés que rencontre l'industrie automobile ici, cherche à consolider de nouveaux secteurs. « Toutes les embarcations de plaisance arrivent ici, décrit Spiwe Mtembu. Nous investissons actuellement beaucoup d'argent dans ce secteur. C'est là que se trouvent les restaurants. Et si vous souhaitez faire une croisière, c'est ici que vous viendrez. » L'autorité portuaire vient tout juste d'investir 8 millions de dollars pour revitaliser le front de mer. L'objectif de la municipalité est clair : faire d'East London une destination touristique reconnue. Une diversification longtemps négligée, selon Ted Keenan, journaliste au quotidien local The Daily Dispatch : « Quand on a une entreprise de la stature de Mercedes-Benz, on se dit qu'elle sera toujours là, qu'elle ne faillira jamais. Mercedes-Benz, c'est du 3 étoiles, c'est magnifique. Mais nous aurions dû nous concentrer sur le développement d'autres industries. Le tourisme, par exemple. C'est une ville de vacances fantastique. » Selon la ministre sud-africaine des Transports, 650 millions de dollars seront au total investis dans le système portuaire du pays, au cours des cinq prochaines années.

    We hope you are having a very Merry Christmas! Jim and Greg are spending the day with their families, but we're happy to present an encore presentation of a recent special edition of the 3 Martini Lunch!Join Jim and Greg as they dive into stories that didn't quite make the cut for full martinis in recent weeks but still deserve attention. Jim examines the persistent challenges of inflation and America's skyrocketing debt, while Greg highlights a major Trump victory at the United Nations and new signs that one expected 2028 Democrat contender may be bowing out before the race begins. Then they get a little but more on the lighter side for their final martinis.First, Jim notes that while inflation is much more under control than during the Biden administration, it's still stubbornly at or around three percent year-over-year most months and it's still making many Americans sweat. Greg focuses on the Trump administration leading the charge to stop a United Nations carbon emissions tax on shipping. Greg cheers the latest win in blocking the left's green agenda and higher prices for the goods on those ships. Jim adds another critical point that's key in any discussion of the United Nations.Next, Jim shudders as the national debt officially soars beyond the $38 trillion mark and he's especially horrified at how fast the debt is growing. Meanwhile, Greg points out recent comments from Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer suggesting she may not run for president in 2028. That would be good news given Whitmer's terrible record as governor.Finally, Jim explains how the NFL's desire to reach younger fans could soon lead to a significant drop in viewership. Greg wonders if there is any integrity left in competition after another cheating scandal rocks a world championship.New episodes every weekday.

    In this episode, we look at what happens when artificial intelligence is put in charge of real-world systems, starting with an experiment in automated pricing and what it reveals about incentives, scarcity, and control. We turn to Denmark's decision to shut down its national postal service, using it to examine the decline of physical mail, environmental tradeoffs, and why government monopolies struggle to compete with private delivery. We highlight the week's “foolishness,” including the rise of competitive spreadsheet championships, before turning to a broader discussion about inequality. We examine IQ distributions, bell curves, and why inequality is often confused with poverty, exploring the limits of measures like the Gini coefficient, the difference between snapshot and lifetime earnings, and the role of incentives, envy, and value creation. We close by contrasting equality of opportunity with equality of outcome and asking what societies should actually care about when assessing fairness and prosperity. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:27 AI Runs a Vending Machine at the Wall Street Journal 01:52 When AI Meets Communism and Price Controls 03:52 Why AI Isn't Replacing Humans Anytime Soon 04:32 Denmark Shuts Down Its Postal Service 06:11 Is Physical Mail Environmentally Absurd? 07:39 Why the Postal Service Can't Compete 11:43 The Foolishness of the Week: Excel World Championships 13:25 Are Spreadsheets More Important Than Football? 15:08 Main Topic Setup: Should We Care About Inequality? 16:13 IQ, Bell Curves, and Random Distributions 23:05 Why Inequality Is Not the Same as Poverty 25:36 The Gini Coefficient and Its Limits 28:57 Sports, Superstars, and Value Creation 38:00 Taxes, Transfers, and the Illusion of Inequality 41:57 Lifetime Earnings vs Snapshot Inequality 45:14 Equality of Opportunity vs Equality of Outcome 49:30 Envy, Incentives, and Human Motivation 53:38 Closing Thoughts on Inequality and Society Learn more about your ad choices.
