  • Are Money Gurus Feeding Us Lies? (SB1701)

    Are Money Gurus Feeding Us Lies? (SB1701)
    Jun 27 2025
    Can you really build wealth with a simple formula? Do you need a budget to succeed financially? Should you cut up all your credit cards, or is that just a dramatic TikTok trend? In this episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy is joined by Paula Pant, Doc G (Jordan Grumet), and Jesse Cramer for a roundtable discussion that peels back the truth behind popular advice from so-called financial “gurus.” The conversation is rooted in a provocative blog post by Christine Luken that calls out four common money mantras—and the team dives into each one with classic basement wit, spirited debate, and hard-earned wisdom. Topics on the table: Do you really need a budget, or can you thrive without one? Are rigid financial formulas helpful or harmful? Is willpower the key to financial success—or just a scapegoat? Does cutting up credit cards actually solve your spending problems? Along the way, you'll hear banana jokes (yes, multiple), a heated trivia contest about obsolete technology (looking at you, LaserDisc), and some good-natured trash talk that might just surprise you with how insightful it gets. This episode is packed with nuance, laughs, and practical takeaways for Stackers who are tired of the one-size-fits-all guru approach. Whether you’re team budget or team spreadsheet freestyle, there’s something here for you—plus a solid reminder that when it comes to personal finance, the best advice is the advice that fits your life.

  • Your Questions Answered: Saving, Investing & Estate Planning, Stacker Style (Episode 1700!!!)

    Your Questions Answered: Saving, Investing & Estate Planning, Stacker Style (Episode 1700!!!)
    Jun 25 2025
    What’s the best way to save for a house without wrecking your retirement plan? That’s just one of the big questions Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Mom’s neighbor Doug tackle in this packed episode (number 1700!) of Stacking Benjamins. Whether you're trying to figure out where to park your emergency fund, how to handle inherited IRAs, or how to financially plan as a single adult with big responsibilities (hello, aging parents!), this episode is full of relatable scenarios and actionable strategies. Stackers Torin, VJ, Lori, and Michelle ask everything from: How much is too much in your emergency fund? What happens to inherited IRAs when you're already juggling financial priorities? What should single people be doing right now to prepare for the future? How do you juggle helping aging parents while keeping your own goals on track? Plus, we mix in commentary from Kevin at Edward Jones and longtime listener Ron—offering insights from inside the financial services world and the Stacker community. The guys debate personal finance media narratives, give practical advice for budgeting large windfalls, and reflect on why saving feels easier in theory than in practice. Also covered in this episode: Why financial advice often skips over single individuals—and what to do about it Emergency fund strategies: where to park the money, how much to keep, and how to make peace with the fact it isn’t earning sky-high returns How to prioritize debt, student loans, savings, and investing without setting off a financial anxiety spiral The value of short-term tradeoffs when you’ve got long-term goals All delivered with the basement’s signature charm—where the coffee is lukewarm, the guidance is practical, and the jokes… well, let’s just say they’re dividend-eligible. This episode is a perfect listen for: New Stackers building their financial foundation DIYers trying to juggle competing money goals Anyone who’s inherited assets and doesn’t want to mess it up People who’ve realized adulting is basically managing 14 financial priorities at once and still remembering to bring snacks.

  • AI’s Coming for Your Job? How to Outwit the Robots (SB1699)

    AI’s Coming for Your Job? How to Outwit the Robots (SB1699)
    Jun 23 2025
    The robots aren’t just coming—they’re already here. And if you’re not paying attention, they might not just take your job… they could take your personal data too. In this episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Doug dive into the rise of artificial intelligence, exploring whether it’s a threat, a tool, or something in between. If you’ve been wondering how AI will impact your work, your privacy, and your future, this episode is a must-listen. They kick off with a surprising headline: Gen Z workers are sidestepping AI entirely—not by resisting it, but by choosing careers where machines can’t compete (like landscaping and trades), and using AI tools to grow their businesses faster. This sparks a full-on basement debate about how technology has historically impacted jobs, what the next evolution might look like, and whether AI will make our lives easier… or just busier. In today’s show: Why some jobs may disappear—but others are about to explode with opportunity The surprising role AI is playing in blue-collar and skilled trade growth Why being AI-curious (not AI-phobic) is your best financial move New tech tools that supercharge productivity—from transcription wallets to note-taking bots How AI is already transforming education and career paths What to do right now to stay ahead of the AI curve Then the guys shift gears to a more sinister topic: data privacy. CNET recently reported which free AI chatbots are scooping up the most of your personal info—and which are surprisingly respectful. The gang reveals which apps are best to trust, and which are like letting Zuck crash on your couch (bad idea). We’ll also hear from listener John, who wants to hire a financial advisor but isn’t sure where to start. Joe and OG break down how to find the right fit, why fees aren’t the most important factor, and the one question that tells you if someone’s worth hiring. Plus: Doug’s trivia on egomaniacal coin designers A TikTok minute about U2, dating apps, and dad jokes Back porch chatter about Pontiac Azteks, water treatment careers, and IMAX concert pilgrimages Takeaway: AI isn’t just a tech trend—it’s reshaping our economy, our careers, and even how we learn. Whether you’re a Gen Z worker, mid-career professional, or planning your retirement, now’s the time to lean in, explore what AI can (and can’t) do, and secure your future before the bots beat you to it.
