    Santa Claus Wuz Here, Final Thoughts of 2023, Bye for Now

    In this final episode of 2023, I share personal stories from Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, comment on others’ ‘Best of’ Lists & Quotes, and share an update on the near-future of the podcast. Here’s what’s covered in this final episode of 2023: Top 5 Wealth Killers by Peter Mallouk By a landslide: credit card debtHigh student loans without a high earning degreeHouse(s) / car(s) beyond needs and with a higher carrying cost than you can affordA partner that encourages excessive spendingPersonal lifestyle creepLouis L’Amour was one of the world’s most popular authors. My friend, Joseph Wells (@josephcwells on X), who wrote How to Become the Richest Man in Babylon, in October 2019, read L’Amour’s autobiography in 2023 and wrote the Top 10 Lessons he learned: Expect rejection and be pleasantly surprised by success.Don’t let school interfere with your education.Only judge people of the past based on standards of the past.Ideas are everywhere. All you have to do is pay attention.Just because you disagree with someone doesn’t mean you can’t learn from them.Having an opinion is not the same as thinking. The latter is more valuable than the former.“Only one who has learned much can fully appreciate his ignorance.”The best way to be a bad manager is to act before you understand a situation.“Talent is nothing but long patience.”“Let people know what you’re looking for. Often the best information will come from the least likely sources.”By the way, I’ve been reading Joseph Wells’ The Lake Street Journal for 4 years. It’s sent to my Inbox every Friday morning. I recommend it.

    The Millionaire Mind, Start Saving Early, Gen Z & Social Media with Jacob Shamban

    My guest today is Jacob Shamban. He's a financial advisor who is hardworking and conscientious. Jacob also happens to be the only guest we've had NOT born in the 20th Century! The dynamic 22-year-old is breaking norms in the finance world with fresh insights and a unique approach to personal finance. Not only is he skilled at helping people with financial plans, but as one of his mentors, I've found him to be an excellent communicator. In this episode, Jacob and I discuss his college baseball journey from Texas to Iowa. He attended Iowa Western for two years before transferring to the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. Jacob always wanted to play college baseball, and was willing to leave Texas to do it. Now that he's earned a college degree, he's decided to call Wisconsin home. According to Jacob, the main obstacle he faced in achieving his ultimate goal of playing Division I Baseball was his mindset. Although he had the skills, he said lack of confidence held him back. As a sharp young financial advisor, it's evident he no longer lacks for confidence. We also talk about Jacob's goal of becoming a millionaire by age 30. When I ask about his strategies, he says he's focused on improving his saving habits. He emphasizes the importance of starting to save early and letting compound interest work its magic. Although his father set aside funds for his education, Jacob wishes he'd started saving even earlier. Hope you enjoy listening as much as we did recording.
