Podcasts about Wallet

This week on HerMoney's special series A Week In Her Wallet, we meet Kaitlyn from Madison, Wisconsin. She's a full-time state program manager with a side hustle, a toddler, three cats, and a dog — so life is full, to say the least. Kaitlyn and her husband bring in just under $200K per year and manage their money through shared accounts and regular “budget nights.” As Kaitlyn tracks her spending for a week, she shares her candid voice notes about side gig deposits, why she swears by a monthly cleaning service, and how her love for thrift stores led to a once-in-a-lifetime vinyl record player find. Her week is about much more than transactions; it's a journey of intentional joy, family memories, and budgeting for what really matters.

John Rush kicks off Rush to Reason with a fiery take on faith and outrage, questioning why so many Christians overreacted to a simple, compassionate moment between Vice President JD Vance and Erica Kirk. Is this a sign of moral decay—or just misplaced judgment? Then, financial expert David Stryzewski of Sound Planning Group (https://myspg.com/) joins the show to unpack the realities behind America's economy, from the government shutdown to inflation and jobs. Are we really in crisis—or is the media fueling fear for political gain? Together, they challenge listeners to think critically about faith, finance, and common sense in today's culture. HOUR 2 In this gripping hour of Rush to Reason, John Rush takes listeners from the rise of government control to the drama of the playing field. With guest Ammon Blair of the Texas Public Policy Foundation (https://www.texaspolicy.com), he exposes how programs like SNAP and EBT have transformed from safety nets into tools of dependency and control. Have Americans traded self-reliance for comfort—and freedom for convenience? As callers weigh in, the conversation widens to New York's Marxist politics, before pivoting to sports, where John and Richard Rush tackle the future of Major League Baseball, Broncos football, and Deion Sanders' Colorado Buffaloes. Will baseball face reform? Can Denver turn narrow wins into a comeback season? And is Coach Prime's bold vision already on the line? This hour delivers high-stakes questions, cultural insight, and the kind of truth-telling that keeps listeners thinking long after the mic goes silent. HOUR 3 In this powerful hour of Rush to Reason, John Rush dives into the crossroads of AI, politics, and personal responsibility. What happens when technology becomes too powerful—and too political? Guest Brendan Steinhauser from the Alliance for Secure AI (https://secureainow.org) warns of China's race to dominate artificial intelligence and the dangers of losing control over the very tools shaping humanity's future. Then, Mark Mix of the National Right to Work Committee exposes how unions and politics intertwine to manipulate workers and elections. As the hour unfolds, John tackles America's growing dependency crisis, asking why 4 out of 10 citizens rely on government aid. Have we forgotten the dignity of work? Are we trading freedom for comfort? From global tech threats to national work ethic, this episode confronts the biggest question of all—can America stay free in a world that rewards dependence?

Developing strong financial habits starts with understanding how you interact with money—both consciously and unconsciously. To truly make the most of what you earn, you need to uncover the hidden patterns in your spending and recognize where money might be slipping away. So, what everyday habits could be quietly draining your wallet without you even realizing it?   Links: Want lower interest rates? Contact Triangle Credit Union for more information on debt consolidation options Keep better track of your expenses with our Money Management tool within online banking Check out TCU University for financial education tips and resources! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter! Learn more about Triangle Credit Union   Transcript: Welcome to Money Tip Tuesday from the Making Money Personal podcast.   In order for us to live financially free lives, we need to take charge of ALL the ways we spend money. Part of taking charge involves recognizing all the productive and unproductive ways we're spending our money.   Last week we covered five sneaky ways our habits can drain our wallets and this week I'm going to present five more for you to be aware of.  Exorbitantly High Interest Loans High-interest loans—like payday loans, certain credit cards, or quick cash advances—can trap you in a relentless cycle of debt. What starts as a short-term fix often turns into long-term financial strain, with interest piling up faster than you can pay it down. These types of loans are especially risky in tough economic times, when borrowing may feel like the only option. Unfortunately, the high rates make it difficult to catch up, and the stress of mounting debt can affect your overall financial health.  If you recently discovered you're paying a lot of money towards high-interest debt, explore alternatives like refinancing, balance transfers to lower-interest cards, or consolidating debt through a reputable lender. If you're unsure where to start, speaking with a financial advisor or nonprofit credit counselor can help you find safer, more sustainable solutions.   Overspending on Convenience Services Food delivery, express shipping, and pre-packaged items are all about ease—but that convenience comes at a cost. Whether it's the markup on restaurant meals, the extra fees for rush shipping, or the premium price of ready-made products, these small expenses can quietly snowball into a major budget drain. It's tempting to lean on these services when life gets busy, but using them regularly can eat into your finances more than you might expect. In today's economy, where every dollar matters, convenience should be a conscious choice—not a default habit.   Plan ahead to reduce reliance on convenience services. Cooking at home, batching errands, or choosing standard shipping instead of express can lead to meaningful savings without sacrificing too much comfort.  Lifestyle Inflation As income grows, spending often grows right along with it—a phenomenon known as lifestyle inflation. It's easy to justify upgrades like a nicer car, more frequent dining out, or luxury gadgets when you're earning more, but these habits rarely improve long-term financial security. In fact, they can quietly prevent you from building savings, investing, or reaching bigger financial goals. Without a plan, higher income can lead to higher expenses and little progress.   Keep your lifestyle modest even as your earnings rise. Automate savings so a portion of your income goes directly into a savings or investment account, and set clear financial goals to stay focused. That way, you can enjoy your success without letting it slip through your fingers.  Buying Low-Quality Items That Need Frequent Replacement Cheap products may seem like a bargain at first glance, but poor quality often leads to more frequent replacements—costing you more over time. Whether it's clothing that wears out after a few washes, electronics that break down quickly, or furniture that doesn't hold up, these purchases can become a cycle of spending that feels never-ending. In the long run, constantly replacing low-quality items can drain your budget and leave you frustrated. Plus, the environmental impact of disposable goods adds another layer of cost that's easy to overlook.  Invest in durable, well-reviewed items when possible. While the upfront cost may be higher, quality purchases tend to last longer, perform better, and offer greater value—saving you money and hassle down the road. Overpaying for Expensive Brand Names Premium brands often charge significantly more for products that offer similar quality to generic or store-brand alternatives. While the packaging and marketing may be more polished, the actual performance or ingredients are often nearly identical. In many cases, you're paying extra for the name, not the value. This is especially true with household goods, groceries, and personal care items, where brand loyalty can overshadow smart spending. Over time, these brand-based purchases can quietly inflate your expenses without delivering better results.  Take a moment to compare ingredients, reviews, and performance before buying. You might be surprised to find that a lower-cost alternative works just as well—or even better—than the name-brand version.  Being mindful of these habits doesn't mean you have to live ultra-frugally or give up the things you enjoy. It's about making smarter choices that align with your financial goals. A few small changes can lead to big savings—and a lot less stress when you check your bank account.  That concludes this week's list of five more sneaky habits that can drain your wallet. If you didn't catch the first five, check out last week's Money Tip for the rest of the list.  If there are any other tips or topics you'd like us to cover, let us know at tcupodcast@trianglecu.org and don't forget to like and follow our Making Money Personal FB page and look for Triangle on Instagram and LinkedIn to share your thoughts.  Thanks for listening to today's Money Tip Tuesday.

Trust Stamp EVP John Bridge joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a new cryptocurrency and tokenized-asset initiative anchored by the company's biometrically validated, quantum-secure TSI Wallet. The wallet will function as both a non-custodial digital wallet and a “wallet of wallets,” enabling secure management of multiple assets in a single interface. A waitlist is now open, with commercial availability expected January 1, 2026. Bridge highlighted a growing challenge in the digital asset sector: inaccessible or abandoned wallets. An estimated 2.3–3.7 million Bitcoin are believed to be permanently lost due to misplaced or unrecoverable wallet credentials. In custodial wallets, recovery processes can mirror standard online password-reset workflows, requiring identity validation to regain access. However, non-custodial wallets rely solely on a seed phrase, meaning that if it is lost, forgotten, or never passed on to beneficiaries, the assets may be irretrievable. In addition to the issue of asset loss, fraud and credential compromise remain major threats. Bridge noted that with the rapid global expansion of stablecoins, the scale and sophistication of criminal activity is expected to grow. The TSI Wallet is designed to ensure the legitimate owner — or an authorized beneficiary — must biometrically approve every transaction, improving both security and rightful recovery. Trust Stamp also plans to introduce patented technology enabling tokenized identity attributes to be embedded into digital assets. This feature would support authentication of rightful ownership and enable meaningful KYC/AML compliance while still preserving user privacy. #proactiveinvestors #truststamp #nasdaq #idai #IdentityTech #DigitalIdentity #Fintech #GhanaID #SouthKoreaStartup #AsiaExpansion #KStartupChallenge #FinancialServices #Biometrics #TechExpansion #ProactiveInvestors #AndrewGowasack #wallet #TSI3 wallet #biometrics #DigitalIdentity #CryptoWallet #BiometricWallet #StableIT2 #DeFiSecurity #KYC #CryptoRecovery #LostCryptoKeys #Stablecoin #BlockchainTechnology #Web3

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I wrap up our Money Month series with a powerful discussion on the seven weapons against your wallet. As a coach for Christian entrepreneurs, I've seen firsthand how spiritual battles can impact our finances, and I believe it's crucial to address these issues head-on. We begin by exploring the idea that financial struggles may not just be about practical circumstances but can also be deeply spiritual. I reference my book, The Money Mandate, where I outline the seven spirits that wage war against our peace, provision, and purpose. These spirits not only affect our finances but also distort our mindsets, divide our relationships, and disconnect us from God's flow of abundance. Throughout the episode, I emphasize the importance of discernment. You cannot win a war you don't realize you're in, and understanding these spiritual attacks is essential for claiming financial freedom. I encourage listeners to grab their Bibles and join me as we uncover these seven weapons, aiming to awaken discernment rather than instill fear.   Not ready to say goodbye?

Ever glance at your bank account and wonder, “Where did it all go?” Impulse buys might be the usual suspects, but they're just the beginning. In today's economy—where every dollar counts—there are plenty of subtle ways money slips through the cracks. Some are so routine habits that could be draining your wallet, and you might not even notice them.  Links: Keep better track of your expenses with our Money Management tool within online banking Check out TCU University for financial education tips and resources!

Yet even the most budget-conscious among us can fall into habits that quietly drain our finances. From everyday conveniences to overlooked fees, these money leaks often go unnoticed until it's too late. The good news? Most of them are fixable with a few smart tweaks.   This tip is part one of two tips that will cover ten sneaky yet common budget busters. Here are the first five.   Throwing Away Wasted Food Buying groceries with good intentions only to toss them out a few days later is a quiet but costly habit. Whether it's forgotten leftovers, produce that never made it into a meal, or bulk items that seemed like a good deal at the time, food waste can add up fast—and so does the money lost with it. In today's economy, where grocery prices continue to climb, letting food go unused is like throwing cash straight into the trash. The problem often stems from lack of planning or overestimating what we'll actually eat during the week. Plan meals before shopping and stick to a list that reflects your actual schedule and appetite. Explore tools like dinner planning apps or notebooks to keep your meal plan organized and easy to follow.   Overspending on Dining Out Takeout and restaurant meals are undeniably convenient—especially after a long day—but that convenience comes at a steep price. With rising food costs, service fees, and delivery charges, even a quick bite can end up costing double what it would to make at home. It's easy to fall into the habit of dining out regularly without realizing how much it's impacting your budget. Over time, those small splurges can add up to hundreds of dollars a month. Set a realistic weekly dining-out budget and explore simple, quick recipes that make cooking feel less like a chore. Even swapping just a few restaurant meals for homemade ones each week can lead to noticeable savings—and might even spark a new love for cooking.  Impulse Purchases Online shopping makes it incredibly easy to buy things on a whim—just a few clicks and it's on its way to your doorstep. These impulse purchases often feel satisfying in the moment, but they can quickly lead to regret, clutter, and a shrinking bank balance. With targeted ads and flash sales constantly vying for your attention, it's easy to convince yourself that you need something you didn't even know existed five minutes ago. Over time, these small, unplanned buys can add up to a significant drain on your finances. Curb this temptation with the 24-hour rule—wait a full day before buying non-essential items. This simple pause gives you time to reflect on whether the purchase is truly worth it or just a fleeting desire.  Paying for Unused Subscription Services Streaming platforms, mobile apps, and memberships can quietly renew month after month—even if you've completely forgotten about them. It's easy to sign up for a free trial or a service you might use, only to let it slip under the radar while the charges keep rolling in. These recurring expenses may seem small individually, but together they can take a noticeable bite out of your budget. In a subscription-heavy world, it's more important than ever to stay on top of what you're actually using. Make it a habit to review your subscriptions every few months and cancel anything you haven't used recently. Budgeting apps and digital wallets often have built-in tools to help track and manage recurring payments, making it easier to spot and stop the ones that no longer serve you.  Fees on Late or Missed Payments Late fees and penalties are completely avoidable, yet they remain one of the most common and frustrating money drains. Whether it's a missed credit card payment, a forgotten utility bill, or a delayed loan installment, these charges can pile up quickly and quietly. Beyond the immediate financial hit, they can also damage your credit score—making future borrowing more expensive or even inaccessible. In a busy world, it's easy to overlook due dates, but the consequences can linger far longer than the oversight. Set up automatic payments for recurring bills whenever possible, and use calendar reminders or budgeting apps to track due dates. A little organization now can save you from costly mistakes later.   That concludes this week's list of 5 ways we tend to waste money. Next week I'll present 5 more, so make sure to tune in and take a listen! Ther may be some you haven't heard of before!  If there are any other tips or topics you'd like us to cover, let us know at tcupodcast@trianglecu.org and don't forget to like and follow our Making Money Personal FB page and look for Triangle on Instagram and LinkedIn to share your thoughts.  Thanks for listening to today's Money Tip Tuesday.

As the Wallet app is used to manage payments, passes, orders, and other things, you may want to be able to receive notifications from it to stay on top of pertinent activity. However, the Wallet app has also been known to send ads as notifications, like the time Apple used it to promote a discount on tickets to F1 the Movie in early 2025. If you'd rather not receive such notifications, you can turn them off by opening the Wallet app, double-tapping the More button, selecting Notifications, and turning the Offers and Promotions switch off. And I'm going to demonstrate that now on my iPhone.VoiceOver: camera weather camera wallet walletTyler: and since the more button is located near the top right of the screen i'm going to put my finger thereVoiceOver: more button more orders buttonTyler: and touch my finger toward the bottomVoiceOver: dismiss context menu button notifications notifications close buttonTyler: and since the setting is the last one on this screen i'm gonna tap with four fingers near the bottom of the screenVoiceOver: offers and promotions switch button off offers and promotionsTyler: this is off for me if it's on for you and you want to turn it off just double tap if you swipe leftVoiceOver: new features and updates switch button onTyler: you have new features and updates that's on for me because the wallet app is constantly improving and new features are rolling out as time passes and i like to be aware of when a new feature rolls out to decide whether i want to take advantage of it or not but if you don't want to be alerted of such things just turn that off when you're done changing these settings and making them what you want Double tap theVoiceOver: close buttonTyler: near the top left of the screen.
