On this week’s episode of Another Money Show, J.R. Rotchford and Matt McClure hold down the fort while Anthony is away, joined later by special guest Joe Jaquint from Salem’s 1010 AM and Patriot Trading Group. Together, they dive deep into the fast-changing world of cryptocurrencies, central bank digital currencies, and what it means for your financial security.

From the rise of “Trump Token” and meme coins like Lil Pepe to the serious implications of Blackrock’s crypto moves and private equity creeping into retirement accounts, J.R. and Matt explore whether digital assets are the new tulips—or the new gold. Joe introduces Texas Coin, a permission-based, U.S.-mined crypto project, and explains why he believes it could be a game-changer.

The hosts remind listeners: don’t be scared—be prepared. With insights into precious metals, barter planning, financial diversification, and practical steps to enter the digital currency space safely, this episode balances skepticism with opportunity in a world that’s moving rapidly toward digital money.

About Another Money Show:
We’re your hosts, J.R. and Anthony. We want our listeners to be informed of not only the standard rules for investing but how to invest based on the uncertain world around us. We want our listeners to be prepared – not scared. Being aware of potential pitfalls allow our listeners to be proactive in their finances, not reactive!

Meet J.R.: J.R. Rotchford joined his family’s business, Rotchford & Associates, in 1998 after serving in the U.S. Air Force, graduating from ASU and working for a newspaper and then an elevator company for a short period of time. He has experienced the peaks and valleys of the financial services industry for going on a quarter of a century now.

Meet Anthony: In 2018, Anthony Carrao became the 4th generation of the family business after leaving behind a career as an Industrial Engineer. Anthony now uses his knowledge base in strategic planning and cost savings initiatives for individuals and families to better their financial situations, instead of saving millions for large corporations.

In this week’s Another Money Show, Anthony Carrao and J.R. Rotchford — with guest producer Matt McClure — pull back the curtain on headlines the other money shows won’t touch. From tariffs, market overreactions, and Buffett’s surprising investment moves, to the very real risks of a “bail-in” if your bank fails, we break it all down in plain English. Plus, the coming shift toward a central bank digital currency (CBDC), how big-name institutions are already preparing for it, and why you should too.

We’ll also cover why cash at home is still critical in a digital world, how to navigate potential estate planning pitfalls (yes, even Hulk Hogan and Ozzy Osbourne aren’t immune), and how to position your retirement money in a market that’s overdue for a correction.

Bottom line: we want you prepared, not scared — and ready for whatever the financial world throws next.
