326 - Work Isn't a Four-Letter Word: Redefining Work for the Next Generation (A Parent’s Guide)
Why do 7 out of 10 Americans dislike or hate their jobs? In a country as free as ours, and with technology that allows for infinite possibilities, it’s hard to believe this is where we are. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton explains why he thinks the seeds of workplace discontent are planted when we are children. Then, every step of our journey is curated to show us that work is supposed to suck. A better way exists, and it begins with how we talk to our children.

325 - It’s Always a Good Time to Buy: The Short-Sightedness of All-Time Stock Market Highs
One common narrative around the topic of investing is the idea we shouldn’t buy when the market is at or near an all-time high. Instead, we should be patient and wait for the market to crash…..you know, “buy low, sell high.” In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton explains why this is a short-sighted and costly mistake for most people. You might be shocked by just how often the stock market hits new all-time highs. We think this episode may change your entire perspective on timing (or not) the market.

323 - The Risk of Not Taking Risk: Why Complacency Is the Real Risk We Should Be Worried About
It’s quite common for us to think about the risk of making this decision or that decision. We (hopefully) objectively look at the choices before us, and assess the risk and rewards of each. However, we don’t often think about the risk of NOT doing something. Let's call it the risk of not taking risk. In many situations, we would argue, the risk of not taking risk is far greater than the risk we’d be taking. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton dives into the risk of complacency and how not taking risks is actually the biggest risk of all.

322 - The Irresponsibility Challenge: What Would Happen if You Couldn't Do Anything Responsible for a Full Month?
Warning: This episode may offend personal finance traditionalists. There’s a shadow side to being completely locked in and focused on our goals. Sure, that focus allows us to crush our goals and make ridiculous progress. That’s amazing! However, it can also lead to burnout if we’re not careful. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton discusses a weird and counter-cultural challenge he issued to one of his clients who was on the brink of burnout. For one month, they weren’t allowed to do anything “responsible” with their money. Instead, it was a full month of nothing but wants and fun….we’ll call it planned irresponsibility. It changed everything!

321 - Lessons from Coach: Why We Never See Sports Coaches Chasing Retirement, and How It Applies to You
Have you ever noticed that sports coaches never talk about their desire to quit working? They don’t say things like, “Only 5 more years until I can retire,” or “I can’t wait to finally hang it up.” Instead, they talk about their desire to coach as long as they are able. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton discusses this unique dynamic, and why we all could learn a thing or two from the coaches in our life. This episode was inspired by the Long Beach State men’s basketball team, their coach Dan Monson, and the amazing story they lived out heading into March Madness.

Customer Reviews
Travis has changed my future!
I'm working with Travis on a monthly basis as my financial coach. My financial life was rough before I started working with Travis. I'm now out of debt, I feel confident about my finances and financial future and my net worth has increased dramatically. I enjoy buying things that I want and enrich my life (or just fun things) because I plan ahead and save for them.
Great Listen and Great Financial Information!
I love that the financial tips are all simple and applicable to any budget. I think the ideas are genius especially the sinking funds. Sometimes there are things said during the podcasts that I would never have thought about! Definitely worth the weekly listen!
A positive light
This is a really positive podcast! Love how it shines a light for financial hope in a world of darkness. There is good knowledge in here to get through the hardest Financial recession!!!
