Financial Recon

Where are we sleeping?

What’s the menu?

Did you buy this?

It’s enough to make anyone loopy around the holidays!

Then through in finances....and you have a recipe for a show on Bravo!

Lets be honest: We all have had the family member who has the hot stock tip, or in this day and age: crypto…

Who may have made a mint on an NFT….?

And is now a financial savant.

So how is one to navigate this potential psychological minefield? 

That’s where we turn to Derek Hagen, financial therapist, from Money Health Solutions!

Derek provides some great insights as to why this season is so stressful and how to best handle these situations.

In Episode 18 of Financial Recon, we talked about all the changes happening at Disney World. From the price increases to elimination of services, its a lot for anybody to navigate, even for someone like myself who has been captivated by the magic.

So what is one to do?

In this episode we are joined by Marissa Vallotton from the World of DVC...who shares some tips on how to do Disney for less, whether it be a once in a lifetime trip, or one that you plan to take regularly, and some of things to be aware of if you decide to make that impulse buy on property.

Lately, we have all seen the headlines & heard the rhetoric:

Company X pays No Income Taxes!

Its bound to set anybody off on a tirade…

And as politicians squabble as to how best address this issue, one has to wonder, is perception reality?

In this episode of Financial Recon, I am joined by Professor Scott Dyreng of The Fuqua School of Business at Duke University, who provides a fascinating explanation of how to interpret financial statements versus tax returns, and what really is going on with these corporations.

Warren Buffett. 

His name is synonymous with investing and the stories about him are seemingly endless…

But one that doesn’t make the rounds very often, is about Warren Buffett the minor league baseball owner.

In this episode of Financial Recon we sit down with Gary Green, owner of the now Omaha Stormchasers baseball team & Union Omaha soccer club, as we discuss what it was like making a deal with one of the wealthiest men on the planet...

Disney!

That name makes some people excited while others just shudder.

But the fact is, a Disney vacation has seemingly become almost a right of passage for most families.

With Disney World getting ready to celebrate its 50th anniversary on October 1, I wanted to bring on one of the authorities on all things Disney: 

Rob Whiteside of WDWNT & the show ParksCenter

Rob dives into the dizzying amount of changes that have occurred in the past year and a half with Disney and how those will impact your experience going forward...

Nostalgia.

Its a key component to all of us and our story.

Perhaps its a band, a place, or a team that triggers that sentiment.

We will seemingly spend anything to recapture that feeling.

When my wife & I first moved to Baltimore in 2004, one thing became evident quick: 

People loved their Baltimore Colts!

And when I mean loved...words simply can not explain...

You have to see it in the peoples eyes, their body language…

How they recount the Colts Coral meetings, the 58 championship game, The teams arrival at BWI, Gino’s, Ameche’s, and of course the marching band….

It brings them back to another time.

With football just kicking off the regular season, I thought who better to wet our appetite about it than the Phd of Baltimore Sports (in my opinion at least) Mr. John Ziemann.

John, creates a fascinating timeline of football history interwoven with that of his involvement in the Baltimore Colts, now Marching Ravens band, and how music played such an instrumental role in helping a city rebound from a devastating loss, to landing one of the most successful franchises in pro football.

Youth athletics is big business!

We see it every day...and if not kept in check, it can destroy your budget.

But why has it come to this?
