- 398 - The Costs Behind the Cost: Why the Initial Purchase Price is Just Part of the Story
Whenever we consider buying something, we typically look at the cost to purchase it and make our decision accordingly. However, the initial purchase price is just part of the story. Instead, in order to give ourselves a fuller context, we need to look at the costs behind the cost. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton discusses why it’s critical that we account for all the costs involved with owning a product, financial and otherwise.

9 min - 393 - Best of Both Worlds: Investing In Other Things, But With Boundaries
Interested in individual stocks, crypto, gold, or other forms of investments? As you know, we are a big believer in patiently investing in broad, cheap, U.S. stock market indexes. We will die on that hill. However, it’s okay if you want to dabble in other things. In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton explains how we can do so in a healthy way by establishing (and honoring) clear boundaries.

13 min - 391 - Lifestyle Creep: A Cautionary Tale
We often throw around the term “lifestyle creep,” but we typically don’t dive deep enough to truly look at its impact on our culture. In today’s unedited episode, host Travis Shelton shares a cautionary tale of one particular family. It’s the story of success, growth, pain, and unintended consequences. It’s THE definition of the American Dream, which often looks more like the American Nightmare. We hope you take something away from this episode and use it to assess your own journey.

13 min - 390 - Choosing the Right Anchors: Why We Accidentally Sabotage Ourselves, and How to Fix It

9 min - 389 - Time to Check Your Statements Again: Why Your Investments Aren’t Doing As Well As You Think
2024 has been a great year in the stock market! Are you crushing it? In today’s episode, host Travis Shelton explains why you may not be doing as well as you think. He shares the story of a friend who was excited to learn from his financial advisor that he’s received an 18% return over the last 12 months. This sounds great……except for the fact the U.S. stock market returned approximately 34% in the 12 months ending 11/30/2024. We hope this episode is eye-opening, and after you’re done listening, you race to pull out a recent account statement.
