    Locked In Podcast - Why American Cities Are Changing: What Greensboro Can Teach Us About Growth

    From rising property taxes and housing costs to artificial intelligence, economic development, and declining public trust in institutions, local leaders across the country are being asked to solve increasingly complex problems. While every city has its own story, many are wrestling with the same fundamental questions about growth, affordability, infrastructure, and the future of public leadership. In this episode of Locked In with Algenon Cash, Greensboro Mayor Pro Tem Denise Turner Roth joins the conversation to explore these questions through the lens of one of North Carolina’s fastest-growing cities. Together, we explore what it means to govern during a period of rapid transformation. The conversation examines Greensboro’s recent property tax increase and the difficult balance between investing in public services while addressing affordability concerns. We discuss how cities compete for economic development in an era shaped by artificial intelligence and data centers, the opportunities and tradeoffs that accompany growth, and the challenge of preparing communities for an economy that is changing faster than government itself. We also examine how social media has transformed the relationship between elected officials and the public, the opportunities and challenges of serving on a relatively new City Council, and why downtown revitalization remains central to Greensboro’s long-term vision. Although this conversation is rooted in Greensboro, its themes extend far beyond North Carolina. Whether you live in a large metropolitan area or a growing small city, the questions explored in this episode are becoming increasingly relevant across the United States. If you’re interested in the future of American cities, economic development, local government, public policy, urban planning, leadership, housing affordability, or the forces shaping communities across the country, this episode offers a thoughtful, long-form conversation about where America’s cities are headed—and what today’s decisions may mean for the next generation.

    FINANCIAL PODCAST: Understanding Gen Z's Unique Money Habits

    In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of Generation Z and their unique financial habits with certified financial planner Jennifer Johnson from Three Magnolias Financial Advisors. As we explore the financial landscape for this younger generation, we uncover some surprising trends: while Gen Z is investing earlier than any previous generation, they also score the lowest on financial literacy. Join us as we discuss the implications of these findings, including their reliance on social media for financial advice and the potential risks associated with their investment choices. We examine the paradox of Gen Z's aggressive saving and investing habits alongside their lack of foundational financial knowledge. What does it mean for their future, and how can they better position themselves for success? Jennifer shares insights from a recent Morningstar article highlighting Gen Z's investment behaviors, from their interest in cryptocurrency to their participation in sports betting and prediction markets. We also consider the importance of seeking reliable financial guidance and the value of traditional investment strategies over speculative approaches.
