    5 Signs Your Financial Advisor Might Be Failing You (SB1783)
    Jan 1 2026
    New year, clean slate, and maybe time for a closer look at the person managing your money. Joe Saul-Sehy and OG kick off 2026 by answering the question many Stackers quietly wonder about: Is my financial advisor actually good at their job? Rather than talking theory or credentials, they break down five real-world red flags that signal an advisor might be more focused on products, commissions, or their own ego than on your goals. These are the subtle warning signs you'll never see in a glossy brochure but you'll absolutely feel over time. The 5 red flags: • Poor communication that keeps you in the dark • Office culture that feels off • Confusing jargon (often a feature, not a bug) • Unclear or hidden fees • Products over process Plus: Doug's Italian food trivia, New Year's breakfast burrito chaos, and a reminder that you're allowed to expect clarity and respect. Question for you: What's the biggest green flag or red flag you've seen from a financial advisor? Share in the comments—your story might help another Stacker avoid a costly mistake.

  • The Money Basics That Save You When Life Goes Sideways (SB1782)

    The Money Basics That Save You When Life Goes Sideways (SB1782)
    Dec 31 2025
    As we close out the year, we're bringing back this powerful 2023 conversation with financial educator Tiffany Aliche (The Budgetnista) because it resonates even more today than when we first aired it. Joe Saul-Sehy and OG sit down with Tiffany for a conversation about financial wholeness. Not just having the right accounts, but building a money life that supports you when life doesn't go as planned. Tiffany shares what the past year taught her about preparedness, community, and resilience after the sudden loss of her husband, and why the systems she had in place mattered more than any single perfect financial move. This isn't a story about fear or worst-case scenarios. It's about confidence, clarity, and giving yourself grace while still doing the work that protects the people you love. Along the way, Joe and OG pull practical lessons every Stacker can use without overwhelm or guilt. The money basics that quietly make everything else easier: beneficiaries, insurance, wills, and the difference between having a plan and having peace of mind. If you've ever wondered whether you're focusing on the right financial priorities, or how prepared you really are, this episode offers reassurance, perspective, and a clear path forward. WHAT YOU'LL TAKE AWAY: What financial wholeness really means beyond budgets and spreadsheets Why having basic systems in place matters more than chasing optimization The quiet power of beneficiaries, insurance, and estate documents How preparation can reduce stress not just financially but emotionally Why community and education are essential parts of a strong money life How to enter a new year with confidence instead of pressure THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF: You've ever wondered whether you're focusing on the right financial priorities, you want to make sure your essentials are covered without overwhelming yourself, you're thinking about what really matters as you head into a new year, or you believe the smartest financial move isn't always doing more but making sure the basics are handled. This is one of those episodes that makes you pause and ask: If something unexpected happened tomorrow, would my money make life easier or harder? You don't need to answer that perfectly today, but it's a great conversation to start. Sometimes the smartest financial move isn't doing more. It's making sure the essentials are handled so you can live fully the rest of the time. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • The Money Mindset Tweaks That Actually Change Results (SB1781)

    The Money Mindset Tweaks That Actually Change Results (SB1781)
    Dec 30 2025
    What if the biggest upgrade to your finances wasn't a new strategy but a new way of thinking? Joe Saul-Sehy and OG unpack the small but powerful money mindset shifts that separate people who know what to do from people who actually make progress. This isn't about motivation posters or vague positivity. It's about practical mental frameworks that lead to better decisions, fewer regrets, and more confidence with money. The team walks through their top five money mindset tweaks. How to focus on strengths instead of endlessly fixing shortcomings. Why taking action beats overthinking every time. How playing long-term games with the right people changes everything. Along the way, they connect mindset directly to real-world choices, like how thinking clearly about value, longevity, and opportunity cost affects something as everyday as buying a car. That's where Carl Brauer from iSeeCars joins the conversation with insight into which vehicles deliver the best long-term value. It's a perfect case study in mindset-driven money decisions. Not chasing shiny objects, but choosing options that quietly compound in your favor. If you've ever felt like you're doing most things right but not seeing the results you want, this episode helps you zoom out, recalibrate, and move forward with intention. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: The five mindset shifts that consistently lead to better money outcomes Why progress comes from doing rather than perfecting your plan first How understanding compounding changes the way you view time, effort, and money Why focusing on your strengths beats trying to fix every weakness How to think about purchases like cars through a long-term value lens The power of playing long-term games with people who think the same way THIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF: You feel like you know what to do with money but struggle to actually do it, you're tired of motivational content that doesn't translate into real change, you want to understand why some people progress faster with less effort, you're making a big purchase soon and want to think about it more clearly, or you believe the way you think about money matters as much as what you do with it. Sometimes the most profitable move isn't changing your plan. It's changing how you think about the plan.
