Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. Jake has something he just has to get off his chest. After his recent trip to Denmark, where his kids spent some time literally making money, he felt the need to compare buying a house in the year 1000 for a dollar today. Listen in as Jake explains some of the difficulties with comparing precious metal values from years far beyond when monetary values and records were kept with values today. By the end, I bet you might even be saying, "wow, regulation might actually be a good thing."

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. After having to listen to Jake ramble a bit about this episode, Jeff comes out swinging with this week's market update. I can't decide whether the S&P 500 Index reaching new heights, or the Treasury yield curve news is more exciting. Although, the prospect of fuel prices going down more is also not terrible news. Then, hold on to your hats, they start talking about politics......everyone's favorite past time. I'm sure by the time everyone has finished listing to this portion of the podcast, our listenership will decrease by at least half. Thanks a lot, guys. Listen closely because Jake gives everyone a piece of trivia that will impress everyone around you in the right circumstances, so basically when you're all alone. Finally, Jeff and Jake end on a talk about what the People's Republic of China is doing to try and curb falling prices and deflation.

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Personal Wealth Coach Podcast with your hosts, Jeff and Jake McClure. This week starts out similarly to others, with an update on the movements made by the S&P 500 Index and CRSP US Mid Cap Value Index. Jeff gives us a brief note on irrational exuberance followed by a mention that other parts of the economy may be "sane." Maybe he's comparing it to himself..... Then comes the good stuff, interest rates. The majority of this week's economic writings across the interwebs were focused on the Federal Reserve Board's rate change. Jake explains overnight loans made by the Federal Reserve and why lowering rates made rates go up.... oh brother. Jeff gets to tell us about a publishing by Mario Draghi. For those of you that may not know who that is, don't worry, I didn't either.
