Money Moves: Tax Breaks, Return to Office Woes & Lost Retirement Accounts

On this episode of The Liquidity Event, AJ and Shane are finally reunited, and they cover everything from Missouri’s wild proposal to eliminate capital gains tax to why the return-to-office push might be hurting women more than expected. Plus, Greece’s crumbling infrastructure, sky-high babysitting rates, revoked science grants, and how to track down your long-lost 401(k). Oh… and of course, a little pasta talk.
