****Hey guys, it's Sam Rodriguez. Before you listen to this week's episode, please keep in mind that the news is changing very rapidly right now and we do record episodes days, sometimes weeks before we can actually post them. In this episode, towards the end, we do talk about what we think it would mean if the US were to ban Russian oil imports.

As of this morning, March 8th, the news is saying that we likely will be banning Russian oil imports here in the United States. So if you're listening to this and it's after March the eighth, and you're wondering, why do these guys keep saying, if we ban Russian oil, just know. We recorded this episode before it was actually banned.**

I hope you guys find today's episode useful. Thanks a lot, guys.**

Episode 20 of Money & Stuff Podcast.

Sam Rodriguez CFP® & Conor Shepard discuss a high-level overview of oil, where we get it from, why we get it from there, and more.
