Federal Reserve Board – Federal Reserve Board finalizes hypothetical scenarios for its annual stress test and votes to maintain the current stress test-related capital requirements until public feedback can be considered
First of all, I really appreciate you bringing people on and creating these conversations around money and investing. I’ve always admired how, in the Jewish community, there’s such a strong emphasis on being intentional, thoughtful, and strategic when it comes to money and long-term decisions. That mindset really shows in the way you guys talk about finances.
I didn’t grow up having the same types of financial conversations, but I’m very motivated to build that way of thinking for myself. I want to learn how to invest for my future and develop a smarter, more long-term relationship with money
Every time I watch your videos, I genuinely learn something new, and it’s made me think differently about money and investing.
Wow. Jonathan is incredibly knowledgeable – he shared some great advice on this podcast. I actually reached out to him, and we had a productive conversation. I find him very pleasant and no pressure. Thanks for introducing him to the wider audience.
Wedding expenses in our community should be capped by custom. A wedding is like fireworks, one pop and it’s over. Save all that capital for buying a home, starting a busines, higher education, tuition, etc.
It started very good, I though about hiring this person, but it got very angry. Everything is bad, everything dangerous, run and hide. Don't like this approach.
Thank you so much for this wonderful episode, and really all of the episodes. I always learn something new! Just to clarify something. One thing to clarify regarding UTMA/UGMAs, once the child becomes an adult, they can use it on whatever they want (e.g. weddings, gifts, whatever they want) it's only when they are a child that it can only be used for the child's benefit, so the Bar Mitzvah is debatable, but you can certainly use it for yeshivatuition, camp etc. There are two huge downsides to an UTMA/UGMA: (1) college financial aid applications expect all of the UTMA to be applied to college tuition over four years and (2) if your child is not the right person to have a large amount of money, you cannot stop them from spending it incorrectly (e.g. a child with a mental health disorder). My personal recommendation is to set up a brokerage account as Jonathan suggests and use an ACAT transfer to transfer it to your adult child without triggering capital gains.
I use my day job to buy income. If it doesn’t increase my income I don’t want it. If I have hard times I turn off drip. l have my monthly income for loving expenses and use quarterly income to go on vacations. I’ll retire at 45, treating my current job as my “retirement job” the less I care the easier more fun it is lol
I've been retired for 6 years with a $130K annuity and $150K left in my 401(k). I'm considering a 40/60 stock-to-bond allocation and hoping this approach makes sense in the current economic climate

You are most correct – I've done just that using Canadian bank shares..
Buy – hold and compounding the dividends…😅

Interesting. Naftali Horowitz has an opposing view on investing in the S&P500.
