The Trump administration set August 1 as the deadline for countries to strike new trade agreements with the U.S. Some met the deadline, and others did not. The administration says it's about trading away some efficiency in commerce for a new trade system that is "fair and balanced." Mentioned less often is the role tariffs play in raising taxes to fund government spending. Plus, what is the difference between fine art and the art market? Art critic Blake Gopnik joins us to discuss the evolving world of art and commerce.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with David Yontef about the latest buzz in reality TV, starting with the speculation around Denise Richards potentially returning to "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" amid her divorce from Aaron. We also delved into Brock's controversial apology for his affair with Scheana, where he shockingly claimed to have "forgotten" about it, raising eyebrows about the authenticity of their relationship. We discussed Bethany Frankel's rants about the Hamptons and her move to Florida, as well as the ongoing drama surrounding Denise's legal battles and her alleged affair with a military trainer. Lastly, we touched on Garcelle's new romance with Earl Robinson and the upcoming "Vanderpump Rules" spin-off, reflecting on how the reality TV landscape is evolving while still holding onto the essence of the OGs.

In this episode of TSFS, I dive into the chaotic world of "Welcome to Platteville," specifically season seven, episode two, titled "The Face-Off."

Social Media Tax Advice is for Suckers

The world constantly tells us, “You just need a little more.” But what if real peace isn't found in having more, but in learning to need less?What comes to mind when you hear the word “wealth”? For some, it means freedom. For others, it brings anxiety and pressure. Today, Jeff Manion joins us to explore how we can cultivate contentment in a culture that always craves more.Jeff Manion is the Teaching Pastor at Ada Bible Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where he has served for over 40 years. He is also the author of several books, including Satisfied: Discovering Contentment in a World of Consumption.Why Wealth Confuses UsIn a world that constantly urges us to acquire more, climb higher, and chase the next upgrade, contentment often feels elusive. But what if true satisfaction isn't found in accumulation, but in learning—learning to trust, to remember, to let go, and to live fully in the present? Contentment is not something we're born with—it's something we must learn. And we're learning it together.Let's be honest—wealth can be confusing. One day, we're living simply out of necessity, and the next, after years of doing the right things—avoiding debt, saving diligently, and giving generously—we find ourselves in a season of financial stability. You'd think contentment would come naturally at that point. But surprisingly, it doesn't.Learning contentment in a season of sufficiency is often more challenging than in a season of scarcity. When we experience financial security, the temptation to trust in our own strength rather than God's provision becomes a real concern. This isn't new—it's the same struggle the Israelites faced in Deuteronomy 8. After years of daily dependence on manna in the wilderness, God warned them not to forget Him once they entered the Promised Land. He reminded them: “Remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you the ability to produce wealth” (Deut. 8:18). That warning is for us too.The Danger of the “There and Then” MentalityContentment is rooted in the present, not the future. And yet we often believe we'll only be at peace "there and then"—when the vacation arrives, the mortgage is paid off, or the kitchen is finally renovated. But if we can't be fully alive to God and the people around us now, there's no guarantee we will be later.We don't stumble into contentment—we learn it. The Apostle Paul, writing under house arrest, said, “I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances” (Phil. 4:11). His circumstances didn't determine his joy. His peace wasn't tied to his comfort. And ours doesn't have to be either.Sometimes the path to contentment starts by taking inventory—literally. For many of us, stuff multiplies without our awareness. A drawer of unworn t-shirts, a shelf of unused dishes, boxes of forgotten CDs…they add up. We can begin the journey toward contentment by shedding excess.A simple practice, like giving away five items a day for seven weeks, can bring clarity and peace. Not because we're pursuing minimalism for its own sake, but because we're reminding ourselves that joy isn't found in our possessions—it's found in a life uncluttered by distraction, filled with God's presence and purpose.Escaping the Comparison TrapComparison is a thief of joy. Whether or not Teddy Roosevelt actually coined the phrase, it's undeniably true. In our digital age, we don't just compare lives—we compare carefully curated highlight reels. This distorts our view, convincing us we're missing out when in fact, we're richly blessed.Comparison shifts our focus from gratitude to scarcity. And scarcity suffocates generosity. When we believe we never have enough, we become unable to see the abundance God has already given us—abundance meant to be shared.Generosity is one of the most effective ways to break money's grip on our hearts. Paul's charge to Timothy echoes through the centuries: “Command those who are rich… not to put their hope in wealth… but to put their hope in God… to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share” (1 Tim. 6:17–18).When we give, we reflect the heart of our generous God—first in creation, then in Christ. And as we open our hands, we discover joy not in what we keep, but in what we release for the sake of others and the glory of God.Passing on the Legacy of ContentmentWe long for our children and grandchildren to experience true satisfaction. But contentment isn't just taught—it's caught. When our families see that our greatest joy is not in acquiring new and better things but in reflecting the generosity of Christ, they begin to understand that there's a story far bigger than material success.We want them to see us delight in giving, not just spending. To notice our peace when things don't go our way. To recognize that the content life isn't a small life—it's a deeply rich one, rooted in grace and lived with open hands.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have around $1.5 million in total assets and $500,000 in available funds. Given the current tax environment, I'm considering whether now might be a strategic time to withdraw from my pre-tax retirement accounts and pay the taxes. I'm currently living on Social Security and pension income and haven't needed to tap into my savings yet.I'd like to open an account for my great-grandchildren, who are currently 3 years old and 18 months old. I've been looking into a universal life insurance policy, but would appreciate guidance on the best way to save for their future—possibly to help with education expenses.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Satisfied: Discovering Contentment in a World of Consumption by Jeff ManionSavingForCollege.comWisdom 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.

In this episode of the Sunlight Tax Podcast, I had the joy of interviewing my daughter, Farrah, about her very first job and everything she's been learning about managing money. We talked about the excitement of earning her own income, the value of saving and starting a Roth IRA early, and how taxes work. We even touched on the idea of net worth.  Farrah shared some really thoughtful insights about spending wisely and why she thinks financial education is so important for kids her age (Gen Alpha). It was also fascinating to see how her perspective reflects some of the generational shifts in how we think about money.   Also mentioned in today's episode: 03:12  First Job and Earnings Insights 06:17  Understanding Roth IRA and Compound Interest 08:56  Navigating Taxes and Financial Responsibilities 11:43  Defining Net Worth and Wealth 15:36  Lessons on Spending and Saving 18:05  The Importance of Financial Education   If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and share it!

Many long-term real estate owners have experienced tremendous appreciation and consequential equity in their properties. This is a great boon, but as a result, they are generating very small returns on their equity, sometimes as little as 2%. For these people, exchanging their properties via 1031 exchanges is a great way to improve cash flow and to no longer have to manage day-to-day operations. Benjamin Carmona, Managing Partner at Perch Wealth, helps clients find upstream properties to exchange into in order to generate more income, defer taxes, and exit day-to-day real estate operations.
