The Stacking Benjamins Show — Business
The Stacking Benjamins Show

Named Best Personal Finance Podcast by Bankrate.com and Kiplinger — and the only podcast the Plutus Awards retired from competition after winning twice — The Stacking Benjamins Show is personal finance that doesn’t put you to sleep.

Hosts Joe Saul-Sehy (former 16-year financial advisor, ex-WXYZ-TV “Money Man”) and Josh “OG” Bannerman, CFP (Certified Financial Planner, Bannerman Wealth) sit around the card table in Joe’s mom’s half-finished basement in Texarkana and talk money with the smartest guests in personal finance, investing, and behavioral economics. As Fast Company wrote, the show “strikes a great balance of fun and functional.”

Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday: expert guests, real headlines, listener questions, and Doug’s trivia. Topics include investing, retirement planning, budgeting, real estate, behavioral finance, taxes, and financial independence — for anyone who wants to be smarter about money without being talked down to.

What do you do when things seem to be going well in your life, but none of it is what you want? You pivot, and then you adjust your financial life. That's what happened in Kim Anderson's life, not once, but...we'll let her tell the story on today's show?

We also will discuss headlines about how wealthy people think about money. Do you share these traits? Also, we'll tackle a new rule around medical bills and credit.

LOTS of Ways To Take Control Of Your Money (with an intro to Ask.Vet) Sep 22, 2017

Show notes

We all want to have better control with our money. Whether you're handling some stuff well and need a couple hints OR you feel like you're bleeding Benjamins, today we have the right topic for you. Mrs. Adventure Rich from the AdventureRich.com blog joins us to talk about a Clark Howard article with LOTS of tips to take control of your money. Plus we'll also discuss flipping your financial focus AND what lessons we should tell our future self.

In our Friday FinTech segment, we discuss Ask.vet. Many of us have a hard enough time handling our own doctor visits, premiums, and deductibles. Healthcare is one of the biggest factors we have to keep in mind as we plan for retirement. So, where do pets factor in all of the mess? To help clear out some of the fog, and make taking care of the family pets more affordable, we're calling Dr. Cherice Roth. You might be a bit surprised at which animals rack up the biggest vet bills.

Get The Memo On Saving Money (with John Hope Bryant) Sep 20, 2017

Show notes

How come other people are wealthy and you aren't? John Hope Bryant believes that for many people, it's because they didn't come from the right neighborhoods, have the right friends, or were born into the right family. They didn't get "the memo" on how to become rich. Yet, Bryant says, that isn't an excuse, and it's up to YOU to change your life to achieve the financial freedom you want. If you're looking to be inspired, today's podcast is for you.

Plus, we'll also share headlines from the world of financial planning, throw out the Haven Life line to a lucky listener, score with some of Doug's delightful trivia, and more.

Give Yourself The Gift of "Finished" (with Jon Acuff) Sep 18, 2017

Show notes

Why is it that we start projects (like our big plans for financial independence) but never finish? New York Times bestselling author Jon Acuff has experienced the setbacks that come with failing to complete tasks in his own life, starting project after project and leaving them abandoned. He studied the reasons people stop before reaching their goals and now comes down to the basement to share with us how to complete tasks, even when you think there's very little chance you'll get them done. Also, we'll bring you important updates about the Equifax data breach, including two places you should freeze your credit that you may not have considered.

We'll also throw out the Haven Life Line to April, who asks about identity fraud, feature some trivia from Doug, and more.
