You're making more money than you ever have. Your net worth on paper looks great. And yet somehow, there's still too much month left at the end of the money. Joe, OG, Paula Pant, and Jesse Cramer dig into why high earners feel financially squeezed -- and why the answer is almost never what you think it is. Spoiler: it's usually not the lattes, it's not too many accounts, and it might not even be a spending problem at all.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy lifestyle inflation doesn't feel like inflation -- it feels like deserved progress, and why that's exactly what makes it so hard to catchThe crucial difference between feeling like you didn't save enough and actually not saving enough -- and why OG's take on this is the most useful thing in the episodePaula's one big fixed cost audit: why making a single large decision beats constantly making small DoorDash decisionsWhy tracking your spending is the calorie counting of personal finance -- only useful short-term, but powerful for getting an honest snapshot before you make any changesThe paper wealth trap: why a high net worth and strong portfolio can coexist with genuinely tight monthly cashflow and why people conflate themJesse's one-line-item challenge: find one thing on last month's credit card statement you wish you hadn't spent, cut it, and see what happens to your motivationWhy OG's advice to "just decide not to feel squeezed anymore" is less dismissive than it sounds -- and the number of times the actual math completely contradicted a client's feelingsThe boats conversation: why a good financial advisor's job isn't to tell you whether to buy the boat but to show you what it costs in terms of your actual goalsWhy comparing your savings rate to the FIRE community can make you feel terrible about saving an objectively impressive amount of moneyThe goal clarity test: if you can't articulate what you're saving toward in specific, time-bound, dollar-denominated terms, the squeezed feeling probably has nothing to do with your budgetWhy This Matters NowHousing, food, and transportation costs are genuinely higher. That part is real. But for a meaningful chunk of the people who feel financially squeezed, the math and the feeling are pointing in different directions. This episode is about figuring out which one you're actually dealing with -- and what to do differently once you know.From the BasementJoe, OG, Paula Pant, and Jesse Cramer work through the Wall Street Journal's reporting on why so many Americans feel financially squeezed even at high income levels -- and whether the problem is real, psychological, or both. OG is recording from a conference adjacent to Disney World and has opinions about wood delivery, boats, and people who feel bad about saving $87,000 a year. Paula gets the giggles. The trivia competition features a man who mowed Steve Wozniak's lawn and had the license plate to prove it. OG wins with suspicious precision. Ronald Wayne, who sold his 10% of Apple for $800 twelve days after founding the company, has a worse story than anyone on this podcast.Resources MentionedFinancial Samurai -- referenced for the lifestyle inflation quote; financialsamurai.comAfford Anything podcast -- Paula Pant; Joe joins most Tuesdays for listener Q&APersonal Finance for Long-Term Investors -- Jesse Cramer; current series: 14 risks in retirement, Charlie Munger inversion framework; two-part series now completeStacking Benjamins Vault -- stackingbenjamins.com/vaultStacking Benjamins Newsletter (The 201) -- stackingbenjamins.com/201OG financial planning calendar -- stackingbenjamins.com/ogStacking Benjamins Community -- stackingbenjamins.com/basementSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

AI is getting better at sounding human. Better at conversation. Better at reassurance. Better at knowing exactly what we want to hear. So what happens when our kids start building relationships with machines designed to remove friction? In this conversation, Dr. Becky talks with former Wall Street Journal tech columnist Joanna Stern about AI toys, chatbot companions, creativity, learning, and the surprising role frustration plays in healthy human development. Together, they explore why “helpful” technology can potentially short-circuit the skills kids most need to build: patience, resilience, independent thinking, and real connection. Joanna also shares what happened when she spent time building a relationship with an AI chatbot herself... and why it left her more concerned about kids and companion bots than ever before. * From the newborn days to the teen years, Good Inside now supports parents through every stage of childhood — with practical guidance for the moments that matter most.

What separates companies that thrive from those that slowly lose relevance? Often, it comes down to strategy - not just having a plan, but developing the insight and discipline to make better decisions over time. In this episode of Behind The Numbers With Dave Bookbinder, Dave speaks with strategy expert Rich Horwath, founder of the Strategic Thinking Institute, about what it really means to “be strategic” in today's business environment. Rich explains why strategy is not the same as goals, planning, or tactics, and shares his definition of strategy as “possessing insight that leads to advantage.” The conversation explores the biggest reasons strategy breaks down inside organizations, how leaders get trapped in tactical thinking, and the warning signs that indicate a company may be operating without true strategic direction. Rich also introduces his framework built around acumen, allocation, and action - and explains how leaders can apply it to improve decision-making and long-term performance. Dave and Rich discuss the connection between strategic clarity and enterprise value, the role of tradeoffs in leadership, lessons from companies like Blockbuster, and how AI may accelerate both opportunity and competitive risk. Rich also shares practical habits leaders can implement immediately, including insight journaling, accountability around learning, and creating a shared language of strategy across the organization.

What jobs will AI replace, and which ones will become more valuable?Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare, recently wrote an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal about how he chose which employees to replace with AI. His argument: AI is not coming equally for every role. It's coming first for the people inside organizations who measure, report, analyze, audit, manage, and process information.In this solo episode of The TechEd Podcast, Matt Kirchner responds to Prince's article and examines what it reveals about the future of work. Drawing on Peter Drucker's framework of builders, sellers, and measurers, Matt breaks down why some jobs are likely to be heavily disrupted while others may become even more valuable.The uncomfortable truth: AI may reduce the need for many traditional middle management, finance, operations, and measurement-heavy roles. But it also increases the value of people who create products, build relationships, solve customer problems, lead change, and turn technology into business value.From sales and engineering to marketing, STEM education, data science, and applied AI, this episode explores where human talent still matters most, and what businesses, educators, and professionals need to do now to prepare for the next phase of workforce disruption.5 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Businesses need to start their AI journey now. AI is already changing how companies operate, compete, hire, and structure their teams. Organizations that have not assigned someone to understand how AI will disrupt their business, market, or institution are already behind.2. Measurers and mid-level managers will be disrupted the most. Roles centered on reporting, processing, auditing, analyzing, tracking, and managing information are increasingly vulnerable to AI. The opportunity is not to ignore that disruption, but to become the person who knows how to use AI to do that work better, faster, and more strategically.3. Personal relationships become more important in the AI age, not less. AI can automate parts of sales, marketing, and customer engagement, but it cannot earn trust the way people do. Sellers who understand customer needs, build relationships, solve problems, and use data intelligently will remain critical to business growth.4. Creativity and leadership still rule the day. AI gives more people access to the same tools, but it does not replace the ability to see opportunity, connect ideas, build a brand, lead change, or execute a vision. In marketing, business leadership, product strategy, and innovation, creative and decisive people will continue to create value.5. The future belongs to builders. Engineers, skilled tradespeople, manufacturing talent, STEM professionals, automation specialists, and applied AI practitioners are positioned to become even more important. If AI makes builders more productive, companies will need more of them, not fewer, especially in fields tied to physical AI, robotics, smart manufacturing, autonomous systems, drones, and the edge-to-cloud continuumResources in this Episode:Read Matthew Prince's op-ed in the Wall Street Journal: "How I Choose Which Cloudflare Employees to Replace With AI"Episode page: https://techedpodcast.com/cloudflare/We want to hear from you!

Anti-establishment candidate Graham Platner seemingly came out of nowhere to become the presumptive Democratic nominee for the Senate seat in Maine. But his campaign has been dogged by controversies. There were the old, deleted Reddit posts in which he made racist comments and blamed sexual assault on victims. There was a now-covered tattoo resembling a Nazi symbol. And most recently, the Wall Street Journal reported that Platner exchanged sexually explicit messages with multiple women early in his marriage.Taken together, they raise a big question. Does he have too much baggage to carry on? Or can his anti-establishment political message — that has generated SO much enthusiasm among the democratic base — carry him through?In this episode of NPR's Newsmakers, Platner addresses earlier controversies, the failures of his own party and calls Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth “insecure.” Platner says he aspires to a version of masculinity different from the one embodied by Hegseth. “This idea that you're supposed to use your strengths to use power over other people or to offend people, be mean to people — that somehow that's manly. That's not masculinity,” he says. “That's the act of a coward.”Platner sat down with host Leila Fadel before news broke of the explicit sexual messages.NPR's Newsmakers is where you'll find NPR's biggest interviews.

How to get discovered in Hollywood has been a decades-old struggle. For screenwriters, that game started to change when Franklin Leonard launched the Black List, an annual ranking of the “most liked” but not-yet-produced screenplays. Since 2005, more than 500 of those scripts have become feature films, including several Best Picture Oscar-winners. Ryan Knutson interviewed Leonard about how to fix some of Hollywood's other challenges at our live show in Los Angeles.   Further Listening:  - Hollywood Jobs Are Disappearing   - Inside the Nasty Fight to Take Over Hollywood - The Journal. - For Riz Ahmed, Life is a Spy Thriller  Sign up for WSJ's free What's News newsletter.

Most DIY investors spend their energy optimizing investments. The wealthiest investors optimize systems. According to Vanguard, a great advisor can add roughly 3% to your portfolio -- not by picking better stocks, but by keeping you from wrecking what you already have and by making the boring structural decisions most people skip. Joe and OG walk through the return boosters that actually move the needle, none of which involve a single exotic investment. OG and Anna follow up with the retirement withdrawal sequence that turns a good tax strategy into a great one.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy staying invested is the single highest-return move available to most investors -- and the Wall Street Journal archive experiment that proves it better than any chartHow news addiction creates the three portfolio killers: panic selling, market timing, and the constant feeling that today is the day to make a moveWhy your investment policy statement is a shock absorber between your emotions and your account -- and why advisors often beat DIY investors not by picking better funds but by being harder to reach on bad daysAsset location: the quiet return booster that moves money into the right tax shelter without changing a single investmentWhy tax loss harvesting is widely marketed to the wrong people -- and who actually has a strong use case for itSocial Security timing as a portfolio decision: why "I don't have to decide today" is sometimes the most financially sophisticated answer availableThe sequence of return risk trap that turns retirement into a constant anxiety loop -- and the simple margin of safety that makes it irrelevantThe lightning round: concentrated stock, leverage, crypto yield products, options trading, rebalancing, and tax efficiency -- return or trouble?OG and Anna on the distribution ladder: how to sequence withdrawals from pre-tax, brokerage, and Roth accounts to minimize taxes in retirementWhat IRMAA is, why it shows up two years after the decision that caused it, and why Roth conversions need to happen in November -- not MarchWhy This Matters NowIf you've been dollar-cost averaging into index funds and calling it a day, this episode is the next conversation. The gap between a well-built system and a random pile of investments isn't measured in which funds you chose -- it's measured in taxes paid, sequence of returns survived, and whether you had a plan when everything felt uncertain.From the BasementJoe and OG dig into the return boosters that have nothing to do with picking better investments -- recorded while OG is already inside Hollywood Studios at 4 AM trying to figure out the Lightning Lane math. OG and Anna deliver episode four of their financial basics series with a full walkthrough of tax-efficient withdrawal sequencing, including the IRMAA trap, Roth conversion timing, and why the tax triangle you built in season one is the whole point.

On Saturday, The Wall Street Journal published an exposé on the behavior of Graham Platner, the presumptive Democratic nominee in the Maine Senate race. According to The Journal, Platner's wife, Amy Gertner, disclosed to his campaign last August that she had discovered sexually explicit texts between Platner and multiple women on his phone last spring. Furthermore, The Journal found that Platner has an active account on Kik, a private-messaging app often used to arrange sexual encounters. Also on Saturday, The New York Times revealed that Gertner had disclosed this information to a senior aide who later left the campaign, and Platner had been sending explicit messages to up to 12 women. The reports represent the latest controversies in Platner's campaign to defeat Sen. Susan Collins (R) in November's election.New and improved comments.In case you missed our announcement in Friday's edition on our favorite reader essays, our publishing platform Ghost has rolled out several new commenting features!
