Ever experienced the gut-wrenching moment of losing a job—or worried about what you’d do if it happened? Today, we tackle how to prepare, what to do immediately, and the smartest moves to protect your finances if your job ever disappears. From building an emergency fund to making the most of employer benefits, we’ll walk you through the steps to keep your financial house in order when life throws a curveball. But that’s not all. Estate planning gets a shake-up thanks to the new Secure Act 2.0 , and we’re diving into what it means for inherited Roth IRAs (hint: the government has new rules, and you’ll want to know them). And because we can’t resist a good detour, we also explore the real cost of horse ownership (spoiler: it’s more than just hay money) and why tide pooling is more financially educational than you’d think . All that, plus trivia, TikTok wisdom (or nonsense), and plenty of lively discussion from the basement crew. What’s Inside Today’s Episode: Job Loss Survival Guide: How to prepare before, during, and after a layoff. Emergency Fund Essentials: Why you need one (and how much is enough). Navigating Employer Benefits: Making the most of what’s available before you leave. Secure Act 2.0 & Estate Planning: The new rules around inherited Roth IRAs. Trivia & The TikTok Minute: Because questionable financial advice is always worth dissecting. Horse Stackers & Expensive Hobbies: Ever wonder what it really costs to own a horse? We break it down. Tide Pooling Adventures: A financial lesson wrapped in sea creatures and crashing waves. Key Takeaways from the Episode: ✔️ Job security is a myth—be ready. Build that emergency fund, update your resume, and keep networking. ✔️ Your employer’s benefits might be your hidden lifeline. Know what’s available before you walk out the door. ✔️ Secure Act 2.0 changes estate planning. If you’re inheriting a Roth IRA, don’t assume the old rules apply. ✔️ Horses aren’t just expensive—they’re financial black holes. But that won’t stop people from trying. ✔️ Tide pooling might be the best investment lesson in disguise. Patience, observation, and avoiding getting pinched—it’s practically a stock market metaphor. Tune in now to make sure you’re financially prepared—whether it’s for job loss, estate planning changes, or just the unexpected expenses of a very expensive hobby.

Feeling stuck in your financial plan—or maybe just in life in general? Whether it’s your money, career, or day-to-day habits, a little innovation can go a long way. Today, we’re breaking down how to rethink and restructure your approach to financial planning and work-life balance using lessons from Microsoft (yes, the Xbox folks). Dean Carignan and JoAnn Garbin insights on how to build a system for innovation—because the best financial plans (and lives) aren’t built by accident. Meanwhile, a woman was scammed out of her savings, and a major financial company had to pay a fine—even though they didn’t actually rip her off . What happened? And what does it mean for how we protect our own money? We’ll break it all down. Elsewhere in the episode, we discuss why trusted contact forms are crucial for safeguarding elderly relatives’ finances, how OG wants you to rethink your daily money habits, and why the Xbox case study holds lessons for designing a better financial plan . Plus, Doug has thoughts on podcast innovation, trivia, and—because it wouldn’t be a proper basement gathering without it—a hot take or two. What’s Inside Today’s Episode: A Woman Gets Scammed, But Who Pays the Price? A big financial firm faces a fine—without actually doing anything wrong. The Xbox Case Study: What Microsoft’s innovation strategy can teach you about structuring your financial future . Financial Planning Innovations: Why thinking like an engineer (or a game developer) might help you build a better plan. Rethinking Your Everyday Financial Habits: OG’s take on how small changes lead to big results. Trusted Contact Forms & Safeguarding Elderly Relatives: A simple but powerful tool to prevent financial disasters. Charitable Giving Strategies: How to give smarter, not just more. Doug’s Trivia Time: A deep dive into financial (and podcast) innovation—because why not? Building a Network in Retirement: Why relationships matter just as much as money when designing your post-work life. Key Takeaways from the Episode: You can’t just wing it with your finances. Microsoft doesn’t build Xbox consoles on a whim—your financial future needs the same level of structured innovation. Don’t assume big financial firms will protect you. A major company had to pay up even though they weren’t the scammers—learn how to protect yourself before something happens. Small financial tweaks can make a massive difference. Just like product innovations, incremental changes in your money habits can lead to big wins over time. Retirement isn’t just about the money. You need a network, a purpose, and a strategy—or you’ll find yourself wealthier but bored out of your mind. Tune in now to learn how to bring structured innovation into your finances, career, and life!

Just when you thought Wall Street had run out of ways to package up risky investments and slap a shiny label on them—here we go again.

Whether it’s preying on investor fears, promising market-proof returns, or just outright nonsense, we’ll help you spot the warning signs before you end up with a portfolio full of regret. But that’s not all. A viral TikTok tip about hiring your family members for tax benefits has been making the rounds, so we’ll dive into whether this is actually a genius tax strategy or just another case of the internet handing out half-baked financial advice. Plus, a listener asks about breaking into financial planning , and we lay out what it really takes—beyond the certifications and credentials (spoiler: sales skills matter). And Doug brings us a trivia question about one of the greatest art heists in history , proving that sometimes the best investment is knowing how to disappear with the Mona Lisa. Also: Joe saw ‘Wicked’ and has thoughts —mostly about how much better Wonka was. What’s Inside Today’s Episode: The Latest Wall Street Gimmick: A financial product you definitely don’t need. Understanding Risky Investments: How to tell if an ETF, structured note, or annuity is actually worth your time. Hiring Family for Tax Benefits: A TikTok tax hack that might actually work—if you follow the rules. Trivia Time with Doug: One of the most famous art heists in history. Breaking Into Financial Planning: What it takes to switch careers and make it in the industry. Community Feedback & Upcoming Episodes: A sneak peek at what’s coming next (including our Valentine’s Day special). Episode Highlights: What’s in a Name? The ridiculous branding that makes bad investment products sound good. Bitcoin Meets Structured Protection: The ETF that no one asked for but someone, somewhere, will buy. Hiring Your Kids for Tax Savings: A loophole with some very real fine print. How to Become a Financial Planner: Beyond certifications—why understanding people (and sales) matters. Doug’s Trivia: If you could steal any piece of art, what would it be? Asking for a friend. Joe’s ‘Wicked’ Review: Spoiler: Wonka was better.

Ready to ring in the new year with a twist? On this episode of Stacking Benjamins, we consult the one and only Magic 8-Ball to make our bold predictions for 2025. Will the stock market be riding high, or is it headed for a tumble? What’s next for Bitcoin, and can Taylor Swift’s love life predict the future? Join Joe, OG, Len Penzo, and Mindy Jensen as they tap into the 8-Ball’s mystical power (or maybe just have a laugh trying) to forecast the year ahead. But before we get too caught up in the crystal ball, we take a look back at last year’s predictions. The 8-Ball hit some big marks, like predicting Nvidia’s rise, but it also missed a few. Along the way, Mindy shares her early (and hilarious) experience with Berkshire Hathaway, sparking a fun conversation about investing wisdom. And of course, Len brings his signature humor, diving into everything from crypto to drones to the wild world of Taylor Swift fandom. If you’re in the mood for financial insights, pop culture predictions, and a whole lot of fun, this episode is for you. Whether the Magic 8-Ball is on the money or way off the mark, you won’t want to miss our 2025 forecast. Grab your popcorn, sit back, and join us for an episode packed with surprises!
