Don and Tom take aim at America's favorite financial myths—starting with the widespread belief that real estate and gold are the best long-term investments. They present nearly 100 years of historical data to show why stocks have far outpaced both. The conversation also tackles misleading annuity pitches, a classic pension lump sum dilemma, and the age-old question facing 20-somethings: save for a house or retirement? Callers bring smart questions about guaranteed annuities, where to park surplus cash, and the VT vs. VTI+VXUS tax argument.

Almost two thirds of doctors working in Ireland did not take sick leave for serious mental ill-health, with 19% fearing this may have led to missed or incorrect diagnosis, a “worrying” survey shows .Some 50% of doctors felt not taking sick leave may have meant delivering a lower standard of patient care.Newstalk Reporter Sarah Madden has been looking into this and she joined Pat in studio this morning.

In the wake of the pandemic, the City of Fort Bragg adopted a zero-tolerance policy toward homeless encampments — independent of the recent Grants Pass Supreme Court decision. Counter-intuitively, this has led to far fewer arrests of homeless residents. Today, arrests of homeless residents have fallen from 54% of all arrests to less than 18% of all arrests. The secret? The small Care Response Unit embedded in the police department.

Minnesota cannabis regulators say they plan to hold a lottery sometime in the next two weeks to determine who will get to open up the state's first legal marijuana businesses.

MPR News correspondent Matt Sepic has been following this and joins MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about it.

We love God the Father who created us and God the Son who redeemed us, but what about the Holy Spirit? We hear His name a lot, but who is He? What exactly does He do? What does He want from us? The Holy Spirit is the "quiet One," active in the life of believers but sometimes not acknowledged as being vital. Oswald Chambers noted, "The Holy Spirit cannot be located as a guest in a house. He invades everything!" Today, we consider Him and His role in our lives.

Earlier this year, Larry Fink, BlackRock's Chairman and CEO, talked about the retirement crisis and the difficulty that individuals face when planning for their financial future. Saving for retirement can be challenging due to various factors such as rising living costs, longer life expectancies, and the decline of traditional pension plans. Continuing the conversation, Oscar is joined by Lacy Garcia, CEO and Founder of Willow, a wealth technology firm and Katie Cullen, Head of Business Consulting at BlackRock. Lacy leads her firm with a powerful mission to help next generation investors, most notably women and underrepresented groups, to achieve financial security. Lacy will discuss her motivations for starting Willow, the challenges she faced along the way, and her advice for budding entrepreneurs. Katie covers the current retirement landscape, how that pertains to diverse communities, and some practical considerations for anyone looking to plan their own financial future.Sources: ‘Read on Retirement', BlackRock 2024, BlackRock People and Money report, 2020, Fidelity Institutional Insights ‘Meeting The Moment', December 2021; Two-Thirds of Americans Have Decreased Spending Due To Economy, Wells Fargo, Newsroom, February 2024This content is for informational purposes only and is not an offer or a solicitation.

Revolut, the European-licensed bank with over 2.8 million in Ireland, has analysed which travel destinations have proven most popular this summer among its customers in Ireland - with their overseas spending trends assessed as part of a detailed analysis of the period 1st May - 31st July. The data has revealed that (in order) Spain, Portugal, France, and Italy were Irish holidaymakers' most popular holidays this summer - with the United States also among Revolut customers' most sought-after destinations as per their overseas spending habits. Notably, more than half a million Revolut customers also spent money in the UK this summer. Revolut customers' preferred destination within mainland Europe was Spain (over 300,000 holidaymakers). This was followed by Portugal (more than 100,000 jetsetters) and just short of that, France. Elsewhere, over 85,000 Irish tourists spent money in Italy and close to 65,000 ventured to the United States. Approximately two-thirds of Revolut's 2.8 million customers in Ireland spent money abroad this summer - while the global financial app also recently identified a move toward the return of staycations among its Irish customers, resulting in a record July of domestic consumer spending. Close to 1.5 million Revolut customers from across the world visited Ireland this summer too, with those from the United Kingdom, Poland, Spain, Romania, Italy, and France accounting for over 80% of those visiting the Emerald Isle. Maurice Murphy, General Manager at Revolut Bank UAB - Ireland Branch, said: "Our customers in Ireland depend on Revolut for the best foreign exchange rates, and we know that those extra savings on every transaction can amount to a more enjoyable holiday. We're continuing to bring customers new products and perks to make the experience of going away more seamless and stress-free. For instance, customers can now opt-in to earn RevPoints on their everyday spending, which can then be exchanged for airline miles via two popular loyalty programmes."

To the landscape designer Edwina von Gal, gardening is much more than just seeding, planting, weeding, and watering; it's her life calling. Since starting her namesake firm in 1984 in East Hampton, on New York's Long Island, she has worked with, for, and/or alongside the likes of Calvin Klein, Larry Gagosian, Frank Gehry, Maya Lin, Annabelle Selldorf, Richard Serra, and Cindy Sherman, creating gardens that center on native species and engage in other nature-based land-care solutions. In 2008, von Gal founded the Azuero Earth Project in Panama to promote chemical-free reforestation with native trees on the Azuero Peninsula. Stemming out of this initiative, in 2013, she then founded the Perfect Earth Project to promote chemical-free, non-agricultural land management in the U.S. Her most recent effort, Two Thirds for the Birds, is a call-to-action to plant more native plants and eliminate pesticides, thus creating a greater food supply for birds.On the episode, she discusses the meditative qualities of gardening; reframing landscaping as “land care”; and why she sees herself not as a steward of land, but rather as a collaborator with it.Special thanks to our Season 9 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Edwina von Gal[15:32] William Cronon[15:32] Changes in the Land[15:32] Tiokasin Ghosthorse[24:04] Carl Sagan[24:04] The Demon-Haunted World[26:07] Perfect Earth Project[40:37] Two Thirds for the Birds[42:41] John Fitzpatrick[42:41] Cornell Lab of Ornithology[42:41] Merlin Bird ID[47:01] Garden Club of America[50:21] Diana Vreeland[51:09] Peter Sharp[51:09] Channel Gardens at Rockefeller Center[54:46] Frank Gehry[54:46] Biomuseo[54:46] Bruce Mau[56:32] Azuero Earth Project[1:00:37] Doug Tallamy[1:02:01] Nature's Best Hope[1:05:12] The High Line[1:05:12] Brooklyn Bridge Park[1:05:12] The Battery Conservancy[1:05:12] Brooklyn Museum

The addiction crisis in America refers to the widespread and ongoing issue of substance abuse, particularly related to drugs and alcohol, that has had significant social, economic, and public health implications. The crisis has evolved over decades and encompasses several key aspects:Opioid Epidemic: One of the most prominent facets of the crisis is the opioid epidemic. It began in the late 1990s with the over-prescription of opioid painkillers such as OxyContin. This led to a surge in opioid misuse, dependence, and overdose deaths. Many individuals transitioned from prescription opioids to illicit opioids like heroin and later to synthetic opioids like fentanyl, which is extremely potent and contributes to a high number of overdose fatalities.Rise in Overdose Deaths: The addiction crisis has resulted in a staggering number of overdose deaths, primarily driven by opioids. Overdoses have become a leading cause of accidental death in the United States. The crisis has affected individuals across all age groups and socioeconomic backgrounds.Impact on Families and Communities: Addiction has strained families and communities, leading to broken relationships, loss of productivity, increased crime rates, and strain on social services. Children often suffer as a result of parental addiction, leading to increased rates of foster care placements and long-term psychological impacts.Mental Health Connection: Substance abuse often coexists with mental health disorders, creating a complex cycle of self-medication and exacerbating both conditions. Depression, anxiety, and trauma frequently contribute to the development and persistence of addiction.Stigma and Barriers to Treatment: Despite efforts to destigmatize addiction, negative perceptions persist, hindering individuals from seeking help. Limited access to effective treatment, including mental health services and medication-assisted treatment for opioid addiction, has also been a significant challenge.Response and Interventions: In response to the crisis, various measures have been taken, including expanded access to naloxone (a medication that can reverse opioid overdoses), improved prescription drug monitoring programs, and increased availability of addiction treatment and harm reduction services. Public health campaigns and educational initiatives have aimed to raise awareness about the risks of substance abuse.Legal and Policy Changes: Lawmakers and health agencies have introduced policy changes to address the crisis. These include regulations on opioid prescribing practices, funding for addiction treatment programs, and efforts to curb the influx of illegal opioids.Long-Term Recovery: The addiction crisis is a complex issue that requires a multi-faceted approach, involving healthcare providers, policymakers, law enforcement, communities, and individuals themselves. Long-term recovery involves not only reducing the supply of harmful substances but also providing comprehensive support for those struggling with addiction.(commercial at 9:13)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:America's addiction crisis laid bare: TWO-THIRDS of adults have a family member hooked on drugs or alcohol and one in 10 have lost someone to an overdose | Daily Mail Online

On May 31st, Congressman Crenshaw voted to pass the Fiscal Responsibility Act, voting with more than 2/3 of the Republican conference to avoid a catastrophic debt limit default. Below is a statement from the Congressman on why he voted yes: "We vote based on realistic choices, not what we wish were true. Of course, I wish that Ronald Reagan was resurrected, and we had 60 votes in the Senate. Then we could enact massive reforms that truly put our spending on a reasonable path. But this isn't the reality we have now. The reality we have is a slim House majority while radical Democrats have the Senate and White House. Our leverage is limited.  But even with that limited leverage, we forced Biden to give up on every single demand he had. He first wanted a clean debt ceiling increase without reforms. We said no. He then wanted tax increases. We said no. He wanted cuts to our military. We said no. In the final bill, Biden got nothing, and we got about half of what we wanted. Of course we wanted more, but again, our leverage was limited. Here are other facts to consider. Whether you like it or not, there has to be a debt ceiling increase. The economic consequences are catastrophic if you let the government default on its debt. Your 401k would crash as markets crash, the cost of borrowing would increase and make our debt worse, and recession would be imminent. Only third-world countries have allowed this to happen. Some might say, “well if we cut spending, we wouldn't have to increase the debt!” But this isn't really true, not unless you're fine with abolishing our Social Security and Medicare programs for our seniors, which account for nearly TWO-THIRDS of all spending. Yes, you read that right. Nearly TWO THIRDS. That means during these negotiations we are only arguing over 11% of all spending. Why? Because no one wants to touch Social Security, Medicare, Veterans benefits, or the military. That leaves all the other government agencies and programs which only account for 11% of spending. So, even if you abolished the entire federal government apart from the military, you WOULD STILL HAVE TO INCREASE THE DEBT LIMIT! So, given that there is no choice but to increase the debt ceiling, and given we only have control of the House, where does that leave us? With what options? The options are clear. They are (1) a Biden-preferred clean debt ceiling increase with no reforms, (2) a default and say goodbye to your 401k, or (3) a debt ceiling increase with all the reforms we got. Anyone claiming there is another option is being EXTREMELY dishonest with you. So what reforms did we get? About $1.5 TRILLION dollar decrease in spending over 10 years. Not bad. Environmental permitting reform which is HUGE for our energy sector. This means Biden can't wait 10 years to allow a permit for a new highway lane or gas pipeline. We finally forced the reforms we've been trying to do for YEARS. Billions of dollars in investment and jobs for Texas will be unleashed because of this. We also got some additional work requirements on Food Stamp programs and required some spending limitations (called “pay as you go” requirements) on any administrative action taken by the Biden Administration. We also cut all funding for new IRS agents this year. There's more, but those are the basics. The complaints from other Republicans aren't about what's in the bill, they're about what's not in the bill. But this is faulty logic. I can ALWAYS vote against something because it doesn't have something I want. And it's true, I can come up with a MILLION things this bill doesn't have. No, it doesn't fix our border, nor does it cure cancer, nor does it give me a new eye. But these are ridiculous excuses not to vote for a bill. Some Republicans will nitpick each of those wins and say they're not enough. Well, I agree! They're not enough! But that's not that question. The QUESTION is (1) was this the best we could get? And (2) is it better than the alternatives, which is a clean debt ceiling increase or a default? The answers to both questions are very clearly YES. Many Members of Congress are afraid to take tough votes even when they know it's the right thing to do. I'm not. Never have been. I could EASILY have taken the easy way out and voted “no,” and kept my voters in the dark about the truth. No one would write to me to complain about a “no” vote. But I won't do that. I can't help but tell you the truth. And the truth is that this bill was the best case scenario given the political reality we live in. There is no evidence from anyone that we could have negotiated a better outcome. None. Therefore, I had to vote yes."
