This week on Your Money Guide on the Side, I’m joined by the incredible Jessica Inskip—one of the sharpest, most grounded voices in modern investing.

Ep 7 - Killing Sacred Cows of Personal Finance, Or, Why I (Really) Don't Love Bonds

Mar 17 2025 13 mins

Bonds have been a staple in portfolios for decades, often hailed as the “safe” investment that brings stability and protects wealth. But what if I told you that this belief is outdated, and in many cases, dangerously misleading? In today’s episode, I take a hard look at why bonds are overrated, the risks most investors overlook, and whether they deserve a spot in your portfol

Ep 6 - Mike Taormina - Cutting Through Crypto Noise, and a Case for Active Portfolio Management

Mar 10 2025 42 mins

Back in 2003, I met Mike Taormina at the London School of Economics, never expecting we'd stay in touch—let alone spend decades debating finance and traveling together. Fast forward, and Mike has become a powerhouse in fintech, co-founding Vault, CommonBond, and Alluvial, with a Wharton MBA and a CFA to back it up. But credentials aside, what sets Mike apart is his ability to bre

Ep 5 - Political Nonsense, the Integrity of Markets, and Broken Clocks as Great Investors

Mar 03 2025 19 mins

In this week's episode, we explore our common tendency to react emotionally to political elections and their perceived impact on the stock market.

Emphasizing and drawing upon historical data, the show

Ep 3 - TikTok "Bans," Email Musts, and Building Resilience for the Inevitable Storm

Feb 28 2025 17 mins

In this episode, I explore the power of diversifying communication channels, income streams, and the irony of many people knowing they should diversify and yet their not quite being able to walk the same walk. When the TikTok "ban" occurred, I was left wondering why so many creators, all of whom discuss the power and importance of diversification on a daily basis, had not diversifi

Ep 2 - Market Crashes, Awkward Neighbors, and Overcoming Angel's Landing

Feb 28 2025 17 mins

In this episode, I do my best to touch on the absolute musts of investing and controlling our emotions. Not only controlling our emotions, but knowing our emotions and our reactions to market volatility first-hand through experience. I attempt to highlight the importance of thinking slightly differently and distantly about the markets and taking a walk when we need to escape from t
