  • Definitely not non partisan

    Why would you call the recent tax bill “One Big Beautiful Bill” over and over like you have so much glee about this harmful bill? You could have referenced it once with this ridiculous and nonsensical name, and then called it by its neutral legislative name of H.R.1. You also did not outline all of the negative impacts this bill will have. Can’t follow someone who clearly is a MAGA who wants to eat their cake and watch others suffer.

  • Informative and unbiased

    Love the podcast, it is very informative but obviously for an US audience. I would love to find a similar podcast for Australia.

  • Bad advice

    I found your episode on the single pay annuity baffling. You were so pro for it I suspect you were receiving some kind of financial compensation. You are the only financial advisor I have ever heard that likes these products, every other advisor warns people not to buy them. You didn’t even mention the ridiculous fees they charge. Very irresponsible reporting.
