How to Money

Talking with your parents about their finances might prove to be a very difficult conversation- discussing religion and politics may even seem like a walk in the park compared to breaching the topics of retirement, long term care, and wills. Which is why we’re so thankful to have Cameron Huddleston join us to explain how we can go about having these essential conversations with our parents. She has recently published her book “Mom and Dad, We Need to Talk” and she is here to walk us through initiating and leading these conversations with our parents about their finances. Thank you, Cameron, for breaking this down for us and encouraging us to get started! Want more How To Money in your life?

Imagine this: you wake up after a restful night’s sleep, not to the crash of toys in the playroom, but to the soft chime of your alarm or maybe even sunlight streaming through your window. You ease into your morning by getting ready for a run or some work without negotiating with kids over what they can or can’t wear to school. You enjoy a delicious breakfast, again, without an argument with any kids. For us, this scenario feels like a distant dream. As our listeners know, our homes are filled with the beautiful chaos of kids, and we wouldn’t have it any other way! But not everyone wants that kind of life. Some folks genuinely prefer the peace and quiet of a child-free lifestyle which is totally fine! However, our guest today argues that life without kids comes with its own unique financial challenges. Joining us is Dr. Jay Zigmont, founder and CEO of Childfree Wealth. Jay is a flat-fee fiduciary who specializes in helping those without children navigate their distinct financial priorities and goals. Today, we’ll dive into his insights and explore what financial planning looks like for people living a child-free life. Have a listen! Want more How To Money in your life?

Today’s episode offers a peek into what your favorite personal finance podcast might be like, if only it was hosted by two ladies! Jen Smith and Jill Sirianni are hosts of the Frugal Friends podcast which is all about embracing a more intentional and frugal lifestyle… but not THAT kind of frugal. They challenge the idea that frugality is about deprivation and instead highlight how it can empower you to achieve financial independence while living a life filled with joy and purpose. Jen and Jill drive this point home in their new book, Buy What You Love Without Going Broke, which is exactly what we’re talking about today- spending money! We cover the ways that we’re doing it wrong, how to spend money in a healthy values-driven way, and strategies to support those new habits! Want more How To Money in your life?

For this episode we might need to adopt a new, honorary name for our podcast – maybe How NOT to Money since this is going to feel at odds with what we typically discuss here on the show! And that’s because ‘budgeting’ is almost synonymous with ‘building wealth’ and living the kind of life you want, but our guest today is offering an alternative to traditional personal finance advice in favor of empowering and flexible strategies. We’re joined by Dana Miranda, author of the new book “You Don’t Need A Budget” which comes out later this month. Dana is a Certified Educator in Personal Finance and is a contributor to the NYT, The Penny Hoarder, and The Motley Fool just to name a few. She is all about building a financial life that works for you as an individual – she’s flipping the personal finance script, ditching the budget, and reimagining your relationship to money entirely, enjoy!

Why aren’t there more millionaires? The basic formula is straightforward: spend less than you earn and invest the surplus in low-cost, diversified index funds. It’s not an exaggeration to say that if you stick to these simple steps, you could be sitting on millions by the time you retire. It’s truly that simple – but simplicity doesn’t always mean it’s easy. As it turns out, the biggest obstacle to building wealth isn’t external factors, it’s us. We are often our own worst enemies when it comes to achieving financial success – or any other goals in life. To help us unpack this idea, we’re joined by behavioral scientist Dan Egan. Dan is the Director of Behavioral Finance and Investing at Betterment, and today we’ll dive into how human psychology shapes our financial decisions, the first steps to correcting money mistakes, the power of setting meaningful goals, managing expectations, and much more!

Isn’t there a universal metric we can use in order to compare one charity to another? Not according to our guest today who says that we have to use the head AND the heart to determine what organizations we’re going to support. And when it comes to our motivation to give, I think it could be easy to dismiss our own efforts as just a tiny drop in the bucket. Maybe you’re giving when prompted at the checkout register, so it’s five bucks on occasion. Or maybe you are a little more disciplined or systematic about it and you give away a certain percentage of your income – but then you make recurring donations that you basically forget about. Out of sight, out of mind… but that’s not how we want you to give away your money. We want you to get the most bang for your buck! And here to help us to learn how to do that is Phil Buchanan, the president of the Center for Effective Philanthropy. He’s also the author of the book, Giving Done Right, where he emphasizes the importance of thoughtful and mission-driven giving. He has a podcast by the same name and he’s all about providing data-driven insights to help us maximize our personal impact. We talk about the limitations of effective altruism, focusing on local communities, the historical impact of philanthropy, and more! Want more How To Money in your life?

Real estate investing is a topic that we don’t spend nearly as much time discussing compared to the early days of the podcast. And even then we were both less enthusiastic about it compared to a decade ago! Back before we started the podcast it was pretty much all that we talked about but does it make sense to continue investing in real estate today? Well our guest thinks so! We’re joined by long-time real estate investor Dave Meyer. Dave is the Head of Real Estate at BiggerPockets which is a site and online community that provides resources and education for investing in real estate. We discuss the current state of the housing market, where Dave thinks it’s headed, a breakdown of his portfolio, why he thinks there's opportunity to be had with value-add real estate, and much more!
