    How to Pick a Health Insurance Plan (From Someone Who's Sold Them for 9 Years)

    Health insurance has practically become a bad word. And after being in the industry since 2017, I'm just as frustrated as you are. In this episode, I break down the simple formula I use to help people pick the right plan: monthly premium times 12, plus your max out-of-pocket. That's your real worst-case number. Once you see it on paper, the decision gets a lot easier. I also share why I personally go with a high-deductible, low-premium plan, how I use an HSA to stack tax-free dollars year after year, and why most people are overpaying for coverage they rarely use. The bigger issue — it's not just insurance companies causing the problem. Doctors, hospitals, billing departments, pharmaceutical companies, and government regulations are all driving costs up. We need to educate ourselves and start putting pressure on all sides. 💰 Get your finances organized for free: https://www.themoneydashboard.io

    IULs Are NOT the New 401(k) — Here's What They're Not Telling You

    An article just came out calling IULs "the next 401(k)s." And it's got my blood pumping. We spent decades being told 401(k)s were the answer. Over 60% of Americans are now stressed about money in retirement. So what does the market do? Push a new product — Indexed Universal Life insurance — without truly educating people on how it actually works. In this episode, I break down the biggest problem with IULs that most insurance agents don't even understand themselves: the Cost of Insurance goes up as you age. If you don't account for it, the policy starts eating your cash value alive. I share a real story of a man who put nearly $20,000/month into a policy for 30 years, built $600,000 in cash value — and watched it drop below $150,000 without pulling a single dollar out. His retirement strategy did nothing for him. Every financial product was created for a reason. IULs aren't evil. 401(k)s aren't evil. But if you don't understand what you're putting your money into, you're going to get burned. Stop reading one article and jumping in. Educate yourself — because the person selling it to you might not even understand it themselves. 💰 Start getting clarity on your finances for free: https://www.themoneydashboard.io

    Are You Leaving It Better Than You Found It?

    Smokey Bear taught us something as kids that most of us forgot: leave it better than you found it. But this isn't about campsites. It's about your family. Your community. Your finances. Your country. Are you leaving those things better than when you got here? We love to blame the president, the government, the economy. But "We the People" means exactly what it says — it's on us. Our schools, our families, our financial situations — all of it is our responsibility. In this episode, I challenge all of us to look in the mirror. Are we educating ourselves? Are we building something our kids and grandkids can stand on? Are we creating positive momentum — even in small ways — every single day? Today is all we've got. The ripple effect is real. One person helps another, they help another, and it just keeps going. Let's start that ripple. 💰 Start getting your finances in order for free: https://www.themoneydashboard.io

    You Already Have Everything You Need to Build Wealth

    If you have an income, you already have the #1 tool you need to change your financial life. You don't need to make more money first. You need to learn how to manage what you already have. In this episode, I walk through a simple system to take control of your finances. Know your income down to the penny. Know your fixed expenses. Know your variable expenses. Set your goals. And pay yourself FIRST — before anyone else gets a dime. I also walk through The Money Dashboard live and show how a sample couple manages $7,600/month, covers every bill, and still puts $929 toward their goals — a business, financial freedom, a vacation, and personal spending. Your lifestyle will always expand to match whatever's available. That's the problem. This system fixes it. Start with $25 if that's all you've got. The amount doesn't matter — the habit does. Stop giving your money to everyone else and keeping nothing for yourself. 💰 Create your free account: https://www.themoneydashboard.io 📖 Book mentioned: The Richest Man in Babylon by George S.

    Why You're Broke and It's Not the Government's Fault

    Record-high credit card debt. Record-high auto loans. The average American can't come up with $500 without a credit card. But incomes are higher than they've ever been. So who's really to blame? In this episode, I challenge the idea that the government, the president, banks, or politicians are the reason people are struggling financially. We hold them to a standard we don't even hold ourselves to. We weren't taught about money in school. And the people who figured it out on their own? They're doing just fine — no matter who's in office. It's time to stop pointing fingers, look in the mirror, and start taking responsibility. "We the People" need to get financially strong so we actually have a leg to stand on when it matters. 💰 Free tool to start organizing your money: https://www.themoneydashboard.io

    Your Money Goals Mean Nothing Without This

    What are your actual financial goals? Not "I want to be rich" — the real, specific number. In this episode, I break down a powerful principle from The Richest Man in Babylon that changed how I think about money goals. Wishing is useless. A specific desire you can wrap your mind around? That's where fulfillment starts. I share how this applies to your income, your savings, your life — and why you don't need to know the "how" to get started. Write it down. Put your mind to it. And watch what starts showing up. 💰 Get clarity on your money with The Money Dashboard (free): https://www.themoneydashboard.io 📖 Grab The Richest Man in Babylon: https://amzn.to/4st7Ger Some links are affiliate links — I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

    Believe in What you Say! Am I Broke? - Episode 43 - Jared Briggs Show

    What you say about your life is shaping your reality. In this episode, we talk about how repeating phrases like “I’m broke” or “I’ll never get ahead” reinforces the very situation you are trying to escape. Your language creates your identity, and your identity drives your financial behavior. If you want a different outcome, you have to change what you say and what you do. This episode focuses on breaking negative patterns, shifting your mindset, and taking ownership so you can start moving forward financially and personally. You are capable of more, but it starts with changing the story you keep telling yourself.
