THE AUTONOMOUS MIDDLE CLASS AS THE REPUBLIC'S FOUNDATION Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Victor Davis Hanson argues that a stable republic relies on an autonomous middle class, which serves as a buffer between the wealthy and the dependent poor. Drawing on classical history, he warns that modern policies are "hollowing out" this class, creating a peasantry dependent on the state for survival, illustrated by government campaigns depicting adults in a state of perpetual adolescence and reliance. He contends that high taxes and regulations in places like California are driving this productive class away, leaving behind a stratified society of the very rich and the subsidized poor. NUMBER 1

Abraham and Lot can't stay together anymore. Their shepherds are fighting. The land can't support both of them. It's time to separate.But here's what makes this moment extraordinary: Abraham gives Lot first choice of where to settle. Left or right, you pick, and I'll take what's left. It's an act of incredible generosity from the elder to the younger, from uncle to nephew.Lot surveys the land and sees the Jordan valley. Lush. Well-watered. Wealthy beyond imagination. It looks like the Garden of Eden. It looks like Egypt. So he chooses it. And in doing so, he "pitches his tent toward Sodom."Rabbi Epstein reveals why this single decision becomes Lot's tragic turning point. The Torah tells us the people of Sodom were "wicked and sinful toward Hashem exceedingly," and Lot knew it. Everyone knew about Sodom the way people today know about Vegas. Yet he chose material prosperity over spiritual proximity to Abraham.The episode unpacks a fascinating debate: When G-d told Abraham to "go to the land I will show you," did He ever actually command him to stay there? The Hebrew is precise, and the answer changes everything about how we understand Abraham's descent to Egypt and his return.You'll discover why G-d doesn't speak to Abraham again until after Lot leaves. What it means that Lot "traveled from the east," which can also be read as "traveled away from G-d." And why Abraham's shepherds refused to let their flocks graze on other people's land even though Lot's shepherds claimed it would eventually belong to them anyway.Rabbi Epstein explores the deeper question underneath Lot's choice: How much are we willing to pay, in money, comfort, or opportunity, to stay close to righteousness? And when does leaving that proximity become the beginning of our own undoing?The episode also addresses whether Abraham made a mistake by letting Lot go, why the Canaanites were living in land that belonged to Shem's descendants, and the profound promise G-d makes to Abraham immediately after Lot departs: "All the land you see, I will give to you and your descendants forever."This is about the choices we make when righteousness and prosperity point in opposite directions, and what happens when we convince ourselves we can have both.

What’s driving this bullish sentiment? And how will crypto shape private wealth strategies in 2026? On Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Jason French, Executive Director at Sygnum Bank, to break down the trends, the opportunities, and what this shift means for the future of wealth in Asia.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

WHAT MOST PEOPLE MISS IN THEIR FINANCIAL PLANNING FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS with Thad Ismart | CFP®, ChFEBC, CEPS Senior Financial Planner About This Episode Even when your finances feel “on track,” hidden blind spots can quietly undermine your progress. In this episode, Thad Ismart explains how overlooked behaviors, assumptions, and habits can create financial risk—and how to identify them early. Full Description Many people assume that once they have a budget, an emergency fund, and a basic investment strategy, their financial life is in good shape. But confidence can sometimes create blind spots—areas that go unexamined simply because they're unfamiliar, uncomfortable, or easy to postpone. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, Thad Ismart, CFP®, ChFEBC, CEPS, Senior Financial Planner at Baltimore-Washington Financial Advisors, explores common financial blind spots and why they matter. He explains how people often focus on the parts of money management they understand while overlooking equally important areas that can impact long-term outcomes. Thad discusses how phrases like “spend money to make money” can be misunderstood and lead to unnecessary risk. He also explains why common financial rules of thumb—such as avoiding tax refunds at all costs—don't always apply to every situation. What works for one person may not work for another, and rigid thinking can prevent better solutions. Another major blind spot is comparison. Social media and lifestyle envy can distort priorities, pushing people to spend, invest, or borrow in ways that don't align with their goals. Thad also highlights how early life experiences shape our beliefs about money, often influencing decisions without us realizing it. Finally, the episode addresses one of the most common blind spots of all: retirement planning procrastination. Many people delay planning because the future feels uncertain or overwhelming. Thad emphasizes that financial planning is an ongoing process—one that evolves as life changes. This episode encourages listeners to step back, reassess assumptions, and address the gaps they may not even know exist. At BWFA, our financial planning process is designed to identify gaps and help clients make informed decisions over time. For more information, visit BWFA's Financial Planning Services.

Barbara Goodstein looks at long-term market opportunities that interest the “very wealthy” clients she works with. She says they are still looking at crypto and AI: “this is about growing wealth for the future…Bitcoin always comes out on top.” She likes stocks that are “using Bitcoin as their treasury,” arguing that the coins themselves are undervalued. Barbara also highlights “all of the metals” and some international markets.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

They talk about the tragedy of the CPFB being gutted, why Americans treat the government like the enemy, and if there’s a Canadian “deep state.” Keep up with Samantha Bee @realsambee on Instagram and X.

COSTLY MISTAKES THE PITFALLS OF IRA WITHDRAWALS FROM BALTIMORE WASHINGTON FINANCIAL ADVISORS with Sandy Hornor | CEPS Managing Director, Wealth Management & Executive Manager, BWFA and Tyler Kluge | CFP®, ChFEB℠, CPWA®, CDFA®, CEPS, Financial Planner, BWFA About This Episode Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) are powerful tools for building wealth, but costly mistakes with withdrawals can lead to penalties, taxes, and reduced savings. In this episode, BWFA's Sandy Hornor, Jr. and Tyler Kluge explain how to avoid common errors with IRA withdrawals and keep your retirement plan on track. Full Description IRAs are designed to help individuals save for retirement with tax advantages. But when it comes time to withdraw funds, the rules can be complex. Missteps—like withdrawing too early, missing required distributions, or failing to plan for taxes—can create significant financial consequences. In this episode of Healthy, Wealthy & Wise, BWFA's Sandy Hornor, Jr. and Tyler Kluge break down the most common mistakes people make with IRA withdrawals. They explain how taking money out before age 59½ can trigger early withdrawal penalties, and how overlooking required minimum distributions (RMDs) after age 73 can result in steep fines. The discussion also highlights how failing to coordinate withdrawals with other income sources can push retirees into higher tax brackets. Listeners will learn strategies to avoid these pitfalls. Sandy and Tyler emphasize the importance of understanding withdrawal timelines, planning ahead for taxes, and considering how withdrawals align with broader retirement goals. They also discuss how beneficiaries can make costly mistakes when inheriting IRAs if they don't follow the right distribution rules. The key takeaway: accumulating savings in an IRA is only part of the journey. Managing withdrawals wisely is just as important for preserving wealth in retirement. With the right guidance, retirees can maximize the value of their IRAs while minimizing taxes and penalties. At BWFA, we help clients navigate the complexities of retirement accounts, ensuring that every decision supports long-term financial security. This episode provides practical insights into how to avoid fumbling one of the most important aspects of retirement planning. For more resources, visit BWFA's Tax Planning Services.
In today's episode of The WAG Diaries, we're breaking down one of the most powerful mindset shifts you can make on your glow-up journey: acting wealthy while you're still building wealth. Last week's episode was all about becoming the woman who thinks wealthy, this week is about becoming the woman who moves wealthy with intention, discipline, vision, and identity. This episode teaches you: What “acting wealthy” really means (and what it absolutely doesn't) You'll learn why this is not about faking a lifestyle, overspending, or performing luxury online. Instead, it's about elevating your standards, habits, and environment so your identity aligns with the woman you're becoming. The psychology behind identity-based transformation. We dig into the science of why your brain responds to identity before results and how embodying your wealthy woman energy NOW is what actually creates wealth later. How to build a luxury lifestyle responsibly while staying financially smart You'll hear exactly how to upgrade your wardrobe, curate your environment, build your network, elevate your presence, and invest intentionally without going into debt or sacrificing your financial goals. Real-life examples from my own WAG journey. You'll see how I'm implementing all of this in real time on IG: @byvictorianicole and @WAGDiariesPodcast. Five actionable steps to start acting wealthy TODAY This episode gives you a blueprint for: Elevating your environment Making intentional luxury purchases Building sustainable wealthy-woman habits Showing up with confidence and presence Putting yourself in the rooms that match your future CONNECT WITH VICTORIA: Instagram (Personal): @byvictorianicole Instagram (Podcast): @thewagdiariespodcast TikTok: @byvictorianicole Linktree: linktr.ee/byvictorianicole Subscribe to The WAG Diaries so you never miss an episode!

It's Sunday and I'm wrapping up the week by summarizing this week's theme: Why Most Americans Never Become Wealthy In case you missed any episodes this week, here's what we covered.
Discover all of the podcasts in our network, search for specific episodes, get the Optimal Living Daily workbook, and learn more at: OLDPodcast.com. Episode 3376: Nick Maggiulli unpacks how wealthy individuals allocate their assets, revealing that investment strategies often depend more on access and status than on performance alone. While ultra-wealthy investors lean heavily into alternatives like private equity and hedge funds, this typically happens after wealth is accumulated, not as the path to it, offering a crucial reminder to focus on what works for your own situation rather than mimicking the elite. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://ofdollarsanddata.com/how-do-the-wealthy-invest/ Quotes to ponder: "Try not to forget that the wealthiest 10% of Americans own nearly 90% of all U.S. stocks!" “Not all investing is about money, sometimes it's about status too.” “There are many ways to preserve and grow your wealth. The hard part is finding what works best for you.” Episode references: Michael Kitces: https://www.kitces.com Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

7/8. The Western Safari, Sheridan's Irony, and the Scientific Ignorance Driving the Wolf Slaughter — Dan Flores— The mid-nineteenth-century American West became a safari destination for wealthy European nobility who engaged in serial, unjustified massacres of wildlife, meticulously recording kill counts as trophy tallies. Flores documents a historical irony: General Philip Sheridan, traditionally maligned as a villain, actually protested the systematic buffaloslaughter and subsequently protected Yellowstone fauna. Flores emphasizes that wolves were poisoned ubiquitously throughout this period due to unscientific Old World superstitions and profound ecological ignorance, reflecting medieval prejudices rather than empirical understanding of predator-prey dynamics and ecosystem function.
