    What To Do With Your Bonus

    Is unexpected cash burning a hole in your pocket before it even hits your bank account? The way we handle sudden financial increases often says more about our financial maturity and spiritual priorities than how we manage ordinary income. In this episode of Plan to Prosper, hosts Logan and Dalton discuss the psychology of mental accounting and why sudden windfalls like corporate bonuses, tax refunds, and inheritances can quietly disappear without a proactive strategy. Rooted in the principles of faithful stewardship found in Luke 16, they share practical insights on avoiding emotional spending traps, navigating tax considerations like Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs), and creating a balanced framework that allows for both enjoyment and long-term planning. What you’ll learn: Why windfalls act as multipliers that amplify existing financial habits and discipline The hidden risks of spending future money before it officially arrives in your account A balanced allocation framework to help intentionally manage giving, saving, and celebrating Tax strategies to consider during higher-income years, including pre-tax contributions and charitable timing How to keep a healthy perspective on financial goals without letting emotional decision-making take over Subscribe for future episodes filled with practical tools and timeless biblical wisdom.

    Too Much of a Good Thing

    Can good financial habits actually become dangerous? What if the very disciplines that helped you build wealth quietly become the things that hold you back from living faithfully and freely? In this episode of Plan to Prosper, Logan and Dalton explore a surprising truth: even good financial habits can become unhealthy when taken to the extreme. From retirees who struggle to spend money they've spent decades saving, to parents who sacrifice their own financial future to continually support adult children, this conversation examines how fear, identity, and imbalance can quietly distort wise stewardship. Drawing from Scripture and real-life examples, they discuss how Christians can pursue financial wisdom without allowing saving, giving, or frugality to become controlling forces in their lives. What you'll learn: Why saving can become unhealthy when it turns into fear or identityThe challenges many retirees face when transitioning from saving to spendingHow generosity can unintentionally become enablingWhy balance is essential in the five uses of moneyPractical questions to evaluate whether your financial habits are serving you or controlling youSubscribe for future episodes filled with practical tools and timeless biblical wisdom.

    What’s the Deal with Bonds?

    Bonds were supposed to be the safe part of the portfolio. So why did they collapse in 2022 right alongside stocks?
