About this episode
We dive into one of the most important parts of personal finance: building wealth that actually lasts. - Is it possible to grow wealth quickly? - How can ordinary people invest wisely in 2026? - What does it really mean to “pay yourself first”? - Which investing mistakes do most people make? To walk us through it, we sat down with Jonathan Shenkman , a financial adviser who has spent nearly two decades helping families take control of their money. He explains how to set up savings that run automatically, how to choose the right investment accounts, and why keeping things simple often beats trying to outsmart the market. We also talk about how to organize your accounts, communicate about money with your spouse, and spend in a way that feels both responsible and enjoyable. It is a straightforward, practical conversation that gives real-world guidance (not advice, duh) on how to save, invest, and live with financial peace of mind, with God's help. ► THE BUSINESS ORGANIZER – Feeling stuck in your own business?
