As oil prices surge due to the war in Iran, election candidates in New Mexico are talking about how best to use the state's boost in oil tax income. The AP's Jennifer King reports.

Unexpected wealth can feel like a blessing, but without wisdom, it can quickly become a burden. A sudden financial gain, a large inheritance, a life insurance payout, or the sale of a business can change your circumstances overnight. But what you do next matters far more than what you've received. When a financial windfall comes into our lives, it rarely arrives in a vacuum. Often, it is tied to loss. A loved one has passed away, leaving behind assets along with grief. Or it may come after years of effort, when a business finally sells, or an investment pays off. In those moments, emotions can run high. There may be gratitude, relief, and even excitement. But there may also be uncertainty, pressure, and fear. That's why the first step is not financial at all. It is spiritual. Remember Who Owns It All In 1 Chronicles 29:14, David prays, “For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you.” That is a simple but powerful reminder: whatever we receive ultimately belongs to God. That truth changes everything. Receiving a windfall may feel deeply personal, but it is ultimately part of God's provision and His purposes. And when that wealth represents the life's work of someone else, it should lead us to humility. So the first step is simple, but not always easy: pause. Before making major decisions, take time to pray, reflect, and remember that this is not merely money to manage. It is a stewardship entrusted to you by God. Guard Your Heart Sudden wealth can subtly reshape our hearts if we are not paying attention. It can shift our sense of security, our priorities, and even our identity. What once felt like dependence on God can slowly drift toward self-reliance if we are not anchored in truth. That is why this moment matters spiritually. Ecclesiastes 7:11 says, “Wisdom is good with an inheritance, an advantage to those who see the sun.” Notice that inheritance and wisdom are meant to go together. Wealth without wisdom is dangerous. But wealth guided by wisdom can become a powerful tool for good. Give yourself time to think, pray, and seek counsel before making any major moves. Understand What You Have Received From there, the next step is to understand what you have actually received, because not all wealth is the same. If you received a life insurance payout, it may have come during a season of grief, which makes wise decision-making even more important. Those funds are often income-tax-free, but that does not mean the decisions are simple. It can be tempting to act quickly in an emotional moment, but this is a time to slow down and prayerfully consider how those resources can provide stability, meet immediate needs, and reflect the values of the one who provided them. If you inherited a retirement account, such as an IRA, there are often specific rules to follow. In many cases, the account must be retitled as an inherited IRA, and the funds may need to be distributed within a certain timeframe, often within 10 years, depending on your situation and your relationship to the original account holder. If you sold a business, what was once tied up in years of hard work may now be sitting in cash. That can feel both freeing and overwhelming. A sale like this may trigger significant capital gains taxes, so it is important to understand what you owe and when. Beyond that, this is a moment to think carefully about what comes next. You do not have to rush into new investments or big decisions. Take time to evaluate your long-term needs and consider how this transition can align your resources and your next season of life with God's purposes. And if you inherited property, there may be an opportunity, but also complexity. In many cases, the tax basis is adjusted to the property's value at the time you inherit it, which can significantly reduce or even eliminate capital gains if you sell relatively soon. But the right decision depends on your full financial picture, your goals, and your family's needs. The form of wealth may differ—cash, investments, retirement accounts, business proceeds, or property—but the need for wisdom remains the same. Seek Wise Counsel One of the most important steps you can take is to surround yourself with wise, godly counsel. Proverbs 24:3 says, “By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established.” Understanding comes before wise action. That means asking good questions, getting clear on the details, and inviting trusted voices into the process before you make decisions that may shape your future for years to come. This is especially important when taxes, estate issues, investment decisions, family dynamics, or charitable giving are involved. A financial windfall can create opportunities, but it can also create pressure. Wise counsel can help you slow down, avoid costly mistakes, and make decisions rooted in stewardship rather than fear, guilt, or impulse. That is why we recommend connecting with a Certified Kingdom Advisor® (CKA®)—someone trained to help you navigate financial decisions through the lens of biblical wisdom. You can find one near you at FindACKA.com. A Final Word Unexpected wealth is not merely a financial event. It is a spiritual opportunity. It gives you a chance to ask: How can I honor God with what He has entrusted to me? How can these resources provide wisely for my household, bless others, and serve God's Kingdom? The goal is not simply to preserve wealth or increase it. The goal is faithfulness. Because in the end, what matters most is not how much you received, but whether you received it with humility, handled it with wisdom, and used it for the glory of God. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: My car's engine failed, and I need a replacement. I'm considering a $18,000 used car, but my original budget was $14,000. I have about $18,000 in savings and could pay cash, though it would nearly deplete it. Should I use my savings or finance part of the purchase? I'm almost 70 with limited savings, but I've always believed in tithing. Would it be appropriate to invest a set amount monthly—like $100—in a CD or fund and designate it as giving to ministries after I pass, or should I approach my giving differently? My husband and I are retired and nearing 80. As we transition out of real estate, we're considering moving more into ETFs and index funds. What types of investments make sense for this stage of life?

One of the consequences of the war on Iran is that it has provided the oil industry with the opportunity to engage in rampant profiteering. In the first month of the war, the Canadian oil industry made after-tax profits in excess of $6 billion dollars. If oil prices stay this high for a year, it's on track to make $90 billion in profits. Hadrian Mertins-Kirkwood says that the current windfall could be Canadian oil's final boom, so the proceeds should be taxed and invested into economic diversification.

A widowed father is informed that his child has been killed during a protest, forcing him to consider whether a cash settlement can possibly soothe his grief – in the process, we witness how public institutions and policies, in an attempt to remain impartial, reduce tragedy to a transaction that ignores the emotional needs of individuals.

What happens if AI delivers major advances in capability and productivity, but also creates significant disruption to jobs, incomes, and public finances? That question sits at the heart of today's episode.Our guest is Adrian Brown, the Founder and Chief Executive of Windfall Trust, a nonprofit focused on helping governments and societies prepare for the economic consequences of advanced AI. Windfall describes itself not as a think tank, but as a “policy accelerator for the age of artificial intelligence”.Their work starts from a simple premise: if AI systems significantly reshape the economy, then the question is not only how we build them, but how we prepare for their impacts, and how the gains are ultimately shared.Before founding Windfall Trust, Adrian was the founding Executive Director of the Centre for Public Impact, worked as a policy advisor in the UK Cabinet Office, and held roles at McKinsey and the Boston Consulting Group.Selected follow-ups:Windfall TrustExercise Cygnus (Wikipedia)Erik Brynjolfsson (personal site)Canaries in the Coal Mine?

Millions of Americans are seeing bigger tax refunds—and many didn't expect it. New policies tied to Donald Trump are delivering what supporters call historic relief: no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and higher average refunds across the board. Congressman William Timmons joins Tara to break down how these changes are impacting working families—and why critics are still pushing back. Plus: a major new proposal aimed at cutting government waste and reshaping the welfare system. ⚡ EPISODE SUMMARY This episode highlights what the Trump administration calls a “record-setting” tax season, with millions of Americans receiving significantly larger refunds. Key takeaways include: Over 50 million Americans benefiting from new tax policies Average refunds rising by double digits Millions taking advantage of “no tax on tips” and “no tax on overtime” William Timmons argues the policies are designed to reward work and increase economic participation—while critics question the long-term impact. The conversation also shifts to national security concerns involving Iran and a broader debate over U.S. strategy abroad. Finally, Timmons introduces the TAB Act, a proposal aimed at reducing fraud in government assistance programs while removing barriers that discourage people from re-entering the workforce.

Russia may be issuing verbal condemnations from the sidelines of the conflict in Iran, but behind the scenes, it's leveraging its relationship with Iran to give the US a “taste of its own medicine.” Former MI6 Chief Sir Richard Dearlove and Times Radio political editor Kate McCann sit down with Alexander Gabuev, director of the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center, to discuss Russia's calculated role in the escalating war in Iran. Gabuev explains why the US being preoccupied in fighting another Middle Eastern conflict is a “gift” to Putin, including how temporary sanctions relief and the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz boosts Russian oil revenues. Together, they also analyze the impact of the war on Ukraine's security and energy infrastructure, as well as how continued economic strain and repression in Russia may limit its involvement in the conflict.

This week, we unpack Labor's quiet move to model a windfall profits tax on gas and coal, the propaganda war already kicking off from the gas lobby, and why this could be the biggest policy shift we've seen in years. We break down what a windfall tax actually is, why the EU and UK already have one, and how Australia's been letting gas companies pocket billions in war-driven profits while taxpayers bail out the rest of the economy. The Petrol Crisis Blame Game: Who's Actually Responsible? Konrad plays the blame game with Australia's petrol panic, breaking down who's pointing fingers at who. Labor blames panic buyers, the Liberals blame Labor, the ACCC blames price gouging retailers, and the media is absolutely fanning the flames. We dig into Australia's structural fuel vulnerability, the refinery closures under the Coalition, Morrison's bizarre decision to store our reserves in the US, and why corporate media might be making this worse than it needs to be. The Punters Lobbyist Is Locked In After raising over $80,000 and filtering through 37 applications, Punter Melissa has locked in the Punters Lobbyist. We break down the hiring process, the vetting, the reference checks, and what comes next as we prepare to take on the gas lobby with our own Canberra insider. Plus, the free sauce campaign is officially launching with stickers, bottles, and a guerrilla marketing plan to remind Aussies that gas companies get free gas while punters pay for tomato sauce. South Australia's Election, Slay or Nay, and The Internet Reviewed We cover South Australia's election results where Labor dominates again, play a new game called Slay or Nay featuring Supreme Leader Malinauskas roasting One Nation's housing policy, and sit down with Kirsten Drysdale from The Internet Reviewed to spotlight Carrick Ryan, a former AFP agent and geopolitics expert worth following if you want nuanced takes on conflicts, politics, and Australian policy.

Blood for Oil 2.0: Iran War Windfall – Big Oil, MIC Profiteers, TSA Slaves & the Corporate Screwjob That Never Ends! Today's episode is a full-on deep dive into the absolute clusterfuck we're living through right now: the Iran war that's jacking gas prices up $1+ a gallon, making Exxon and Lockheed richer than God, while the average American gets bent over the barrel – again. We're talking record profits for oil companies and weapons makers, a partial government shutdown leaving real federal workers unpaid (but not the lawmakers, of course – they're still cashing those checks), skyrocketing prices on everything from groceries to plane tickets, and the same old story: Republicans or Democrats in the Oval Office, it doesn't matter. We vote for the puppet, but the corporations pull the strings.  Web Site: www.DontTreadonMerica.com https://linktr.ee/DontTreadonMerica Email the show: Donq@donttreadonmerica.com DTOM Store (Promo code DTOM for 10% off) Sponsors: www.makersmark.com www.NordVPN.com  Promo Code: DTOM www.alppouch.com/DTOM www.dubby.gg Promo code: DTOM Social Media:   Don't Tread on Merica TV   DTOM on Facebook   DTOM on X    DTOM on TikTok    DontTreadonMericaTV   DTOM on Instagram    DTOM on YouTube

As the war between America, Israel, and Iran escalates, the ripple effects are being felt acutely in Ukraine. In this episode, Patrick and Saul analyse the "extraordinary diplomatic developments" emerging from the White House, where President Trump appears to be equating Western support for Ukraine with Russian support for a repressive Iranian theocracy. Meanwhile, Saul provides a firsthand update following his recent trip to the front lines, and on the ground in Ukraine, we separate fact from fiction regarding General Gerasimov's latest claims of Russian breakthroughs, contrasting them with the reality of "kill zones" and the successful liberation of territory in Zaporizhzhya. Finally, we answer your questions on the persistent rumours of Yevgeny Prigozhin's survival, whether the West can truly bankrupt Russia's "shadow fleet" as oil prices soar, and more.

We've all found ourselves day dreaming about where we'd spend a big Lotto win at one point or another. Realistically, many of us will come into a major windfall - but it's likely to come in the form of a bonus at work, or an inheritance. Is it okay to buy a new car and go on holiday? Or should we invest it all? LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Interview with Dan Wilton, CEO, First Mining GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/first-mining-gold-tsxff-5moz-springpole-targets-q1q2-2026-federal-ea-decision-in-canada-8689Recording date: 2nd of March 2026First Mining Gold is advancing two of Canada's largest undeveloped gold projects toward production at a time when unprecedented commodity prices are transforming development economics across the mining sector. CEO Dan Wilton, speaking at the 2026 PDAC convention, outlined how the company's flagship Springpole project in Ontario is approaching a critical inflection point with environmental assessment approval expected in Q2 2026.At current gold prices of $5,400 per ounce, Springpole's economics are exceptional. The project, which holds over 5 million ounces and is designed to produce 300,000 ounces annually for eight years, would generate margins of $4,000-4,500 per ounce—levels never before seen in the gold industry. With upfront capital estimated at $1.1 billion and an NPV of $2.1 billion at conservative $3,100 gold assumptions, the project's returns are substantially higher at current spot prices.The company's market capitalization has surged from $150 million to nearly $1 billion CAD over the past year, yet at $45 per ounce of resources, First Mining trades at an 82% discount to the $250 per ounce average for peer advanced developers. Management attributes this gap to institutional investors waiting for EA approval to validate the project's viability, particularly given Springpole's location in Attwood Lake. Institutional ownership has already doubled from 10% to 22% over eighteen months and is expected to accelerate post-approval.Rather than pursuing independent construction, Wilton openly discusses seeking a partnership model similar to successful precedents like Osisko's Windfall and Gold Road in Australia, where experienced operators provide construction expertise while the developer retains significant equity. This approach aims to mitigate execution risk while maintaining upside exposure.Beyond Springpole, the company's Duparquet project in Quebec receives minimal market valuation despite an estimated $3 billion NPV at $4,000 gold. With environmental baseline work underway and potential EA submission in 2027, Duparquet represents substantial hidden value that management believes could be "worth multiples of our current market cap" once Springpole advances.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/first-mining-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Is life insurance a luxury—or a necessity? In this episode of Farming Without The Bank (FWTB Ep. 338), Mary Jo breaks down Chapter 7 of Nelson Nash's Warehouse of Wealth and explains how Parkinson's Law silently destroys financial progress, especially when people experience windfalls of money. From selling land, paying off equipment, kids leaving the house, or daycare expenses disappearing—windfalls happen whether you notice them or not. The real question is: Where does that money go? Nelson Nash's real-life example shows how paying off a policy loan after a windfall can feel like backdating life insurance by 13 years at a better health rating—an advantage you can never recreate later. This episode challenges the belief that life insurance is optional and explains why end-of-life benefits and banking should be treated like fuel in a vehicle—non-negotiable. Key Takeaways: Why Parkinson's Law eats every "extra dollar" if you don't give it a job How windfalls (kids moving out, loans paid off, daycare ending) should be redirected Why delaying a policy creates massive inefficiencies later in life Why the end of life benefit for children is about time to mourn, not profit How farmers and ranchers must be in the business of banking, not just production Chapters: (00:00) – Life Insurance: Luxury or Necessity?
