Wealth and Means - Episode 12 - Culture, Capital, and the Quiet Setup for 2026

This is a video about Wealth and Means - Episode 12 - Culture, Capital, and the Quiet Setup for 2026 This episode of Wealth and Means is about the signals no one’s screaming about—but everyone serious should be watching. We start with What You Didn’t See in the News: hyper-nerdy YouTube deep dives, subculture fandoms, mid-budget Hollywood bets, podcast experimentation, and stocks moving quietly on institutional volume—clues about where attention, culture, and capital are drifting beneath the headlines. Then it’s Wake Up Ready, breaking down a deceptively quiet holiday week with global economic data that can punch above its weight and help set the tone for markets heading into 2026. In Knowledge Bomb, we unpack what the S&P 500 actually exposes you to—and why market-cap versus equal-weight indexing can quietly change your risk profile. Humor Me brings listener stories from the behavioral-economics lab known as roommate finances. We close with The Greater Debate: where true wealth really comes from—and whether money is the foundation of a good life, or just one tool among many. None of this is breaking news. All of it matters. Wealth and Means — advice dressed up like hard work.
