  • The Shocking Retirement Hack That Has Nothing to Do With Money (SB1697)

    The Shocking Retirement Hack That Has Nothing to Do With Money (SB1697)
    Jun 18 2025
    What if the most important part of your retirement plan had nothing to do with your 401(k), IRA, or stock portfolio? In this episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy and OG are joined by filmmakers Pete Davis and Rebecca Davis, creators of the thought-provoking documentary Join or Die. They explore how community connection, not cash, may be the ultimate retirement strategy. Drawing inspiration from the late political scientist Robert Putnam (Bowling Alone), the Davises reveal why joining groups—book clubs, church choirs, rec leagues, neighborhood associations—might be more essential to your long-term well-being than your asset allocation. Together with Joe and OG, they unpack the data behind social decline, the healing power of showing up, and what the film Join or Die teaches us about leading a richer life beyond the numbers. Of course, Mom’s Neighbor Doug pops in with trivia that proves he belongs (at least to this show). Whether you’re on the path to retirement or simply looking for deeper purpose, this episode will make you think differently about how you stack your most valuable resource: time. Why joining a club may be just as critical to retirement as saving for it What Join or Die reveals about America’s shrinking social networks How loneliness affects physical and financial health—and how to fight it Why your “portfolio of community” might be the highest-yield investment you ever make Ways to build meaningful connections now—even if you don’t feel like a “joiner” Pete and Rebecca Davis share behind-the-scenes stories from making Join or Die Joe and OG reflect on what gives life meaning after the 9-to-5 ends Surprising data on the link between social capital and financial confidence Doug delivers a trivia challenge about famous clubs (and less-famous neighbors) 📚 Resources & Mentions: 🎥 Join or Die documentary by Pete and Rebecca Davis 📘 Bowling Alone by Robert Putnam 🎙️ Pete Davis’s book: Dedicated: The Case for Commitment in an Age of Infinite Browsing 👟 Your Challenge This Week: Sign up.

  • Retirement 101: Planning, Risks, and Smooth Sailing (SB1696)

    Retirement 101: Planning, Risks, and Smooth Sailing (SB1696)
    Jun 16 2025
    You can’t plan a great retirement if you haven’t first planned what you’re retiring to. In this episode, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug open up Retirement Week in the basement with a Monday that’s equal parts insight, weekend recap, and questionable vehicle decisions. 🚪 Start with the most overlooked part of retirement: your lifestyle vision. What are you actually going to do all day—and will it make you happy? 📊 Then they dive into financial strategy, from coordinating pre-tax, Roth, and taxable funds to dodging sneaky IRMAA fees that show up like glitter—impossible to get rid of and oddly expensive. 🏎️ Thinking about a new car? Joe and Doug wrestle with the age-old question: maintain or upgrade, and how your answer could affect your wallet (and maybe your driveway credibility). 💼 Curious about investment leverage? Meet Basic Capital—a platform that might sound like a good idea… until it doesn’t. Joe and OG explain when leverage can help—and when it’s just risk in a tuxedo. 🎧 Plus: Saluting the troops What not to do when your retirement plan involves TikTok A sneak peek at the Nerdy Round Table And entertainment recs to round out your week like a pro Start your week smarter and get a little closer to a retirement you actually want.

  • Learning from 130 Years of Stock Market Crashes: Resilience, Strategy, and a Dose of Doug (SB1695)

    Learning from 130 Years of Stock Market Crashes: Resilience, Strategy, and a Dose of Doug (SB1695)
    Jun 13 2025
    Markets crashing? Interest rates spiking? Inflation roaring? Welcome to history. This week, we dig into 130 years of stock market meltdowns—from the panic of World War I to the Great Depression, 1970s stagflation, the dot-com collapse, and the 2008 financial crisis—to uncover timeless lessons that can fortify your financial future. Joe Saul-Sehy is joined by Miranda Marquit, Jesse Cramer, and OG to examine how investors have historically responded to chaos... and how you should, too. You'll learn why diversification matters, why panic rarely pays, and why staying the course (even when it’s scary) can be the smartest move of all. Of course, this wouldn't be the Stacking Benjamins Show without a trivia detour that involves mailing children through the U.S. Postal Service (yes, that happened). Buckle up for laughter, insight, and financial takeaways that are as practical as they are entertaining. What WWI, the Great Depression, and 1970s inflation can teach us about investing Why “The Lost Decade” wasn’t a loss for long-term thinkers How to build a resilient portfolio that weathers the storm Our infamous trivia game: How much could a kid weigh and still be legally mailed in the 1920s? A few money-saving hacks, podcast updates, and your weekend preview from the basement Whether you’re a seasoned investor or just building your financial foundation, this episode will leave you smarter, more confident, and—let’s be honest—way more amused than the average market history lecture.

I had high hopes for this podcast, but they run their mouths about nothing important for the majority of the shows. This is a financial show that 4 minutes are finance related content. I hope the book this guy wrote is better than his podcast and not full of all the extra garbage. Drop the BS and stick to finance or change the name to "the random useless info show"

it would be way better if they cut out the garage.

This is not a personal finance show. It's a talk show with people who may or may not know anything about personal finance having a good time.

Get ready to not learn anything. But leave with a chuckle or two.

Fun lighthearted shoe

I found this podcast after seeing multiple good reviews on Reddit. I picked an episode at random to listen to on my commute. The first 25 minutes were ads, a discussion about Adam West as Batman, a long talk about fire safety, a trivia question about Dave Thomas of Wendy's, and more ads. All of this before the guest and topic of the episode are mentioned at all. It was a complete waste of time.

If you live in the world of personal finance you know that information can get repetitive. This podcast breaks up the monotony with humor and current events. Joe and OG are cutting edge. Well worth the time to listen.
