The Intangible Balance Sheet Podcast: Recent Episodes

Joshua Klooz

Most people are familiar with their own balance sheet. As soon as we buy our first car house, we become aware of it. If you're of a certain personality type, you may track it quite a bit. But I'd submit to you that we're unconsciously aware of another balance sheet as well. And this one is pretty tricky to measure and even harder to manage. Sometimes, we often find it hard to put into words. But this is real.

I call this our intangible balance sheet. What I mean by this is those life principles, experiences, memories, that given any amount of money, we wouldn't trade. They're the memories that bring tears of joy to our faces, because we simply just can't imagine life without them. We feel fortunate to have had could be our first jobs proposals, wedding days, birth, struggles, anxieties, fears, hindsight. It's all those things that melt into a memory that brings a distant stare and a smile to our face. showing those things that have made us us.

That's what I'm talking about when I talk about the intangible balance sheet. It's those moments in life that may be financially irrational, but are indispensable parts of our life. So, these episodes are focused on stories that bring us joy, happiness, fulfillment, ultimately, may hold necessary keys that will direct the future of our family, friends, and neighbors. So listen in with us as we uncover some of those stories that are meaningful to our guests. And maybe you'll uncover hidden value on your own intangible balance sheet.

Summary

In this episode, I look at the relationship between politics and the stock market. Please do not get caught up in the news cycle. You'll find that even though our current form of politics tends to be zero sum we are resilient people at the end of the day. I also provide some data about returns over time and walk through some of the events that happened over that period.

Takeaways

  • Don't get too caught up in the news cycle and remember to gain perspective.
  • Politics can be idolatrous and may not have a significant long-term impact on the stock market.
  • Diversification and long-term investing are key to navigating market fluctuations.
  • Historical events have not significantly affected the long-term trajectory of the stock market.

We're inviting you to a heart-warming conversation with our guest, Rena Granados, who passionately shares how both these aspects have played a crucial role in shaping her. Rena transports us to her childhood in El Salvador, paints vivid imagery of her family's migration journey, and the profound influence of her grandmother's teachings on her life. We journey with her from accepting Christ in her heart at a tender age of seven to understanding how her upbringing has cultivated her core values of respect, praise, and worship.

We've all had career transitions, but how many of us have had to adapt to a new culture while doing so? Rena courageously discusses the challenges she faced in changing careers and adapting to a new culture. Her tale of transition from being a waitress to a new role, overcoming language barriers, and establishing meaningful friendships is not just inspiring but a powerful testament to resilience, faith, and the transformative power of perseverance. We also delve into the importance of restructuring family priorities, maintaining a balance between work and family time, and how we can impart values of faith and family to our future generations. Prepare to be moved and inspired.

For many financial planners, preperation for elder care can become a merely a numeric exercise. I believe this misses the mark completely on what can be one of the most rewarding and meaningful chapters of a client's intangible balance sheet.

In this episode Kitty Eisele joins the podcast and shares personal journey as a caregiver for her elderly father. This conversation shines a light on an often overlooked topic - caregiving. Kitty’s candid experiences give us an inside look into what can be an emotional roller coaster that can come with caring for a loved one.

Kitty’s journey guides us through practical solutions she found along her path. From finding geriatric care managers to negotiating the maze of healthcare for aging parents, she gives us a roadmap based on her own trials. Alongside these bigger tasks, she reminds us of the small gestures that can make a world of difference in the lives of the elderly, whether it's setting up social activities or arranging transportation to suit their needs. If you're a caregiver now, or see yourself stepping into those shoes in the future, Kitty’s nuggets of wisdom, backed by her lived experiences, are an invaluable guide.

In this episode of the Wisdom Wealth Podcast, I delve into the importance of reviewing stock option plans within your portfolio. There is this tendency for individuals to have a centralized position in their own company's stock, often due to familiarity and comfort. I emphasizes the need to consider the risks associated with such concentration and urges you to assess your beliefs and investment strategies. Creating a family investment statement can be a great first step to gain the accountability necessary to navigate market volatility. More than anything I want to encourage clients and neighbors to align their investment decisions with their core principles and avoid chasing unrealistic returns. Thank you for listening!

As always we are wishing you continued Truth, Beauty and Goodness on the road ahead.

Please feel free to like, and share this episode as well as subscribe to our channel!

Show Notes:

  • I emphasizes the need to assess the risks associated with holding a concentrated position in one's own company's stock within investment portfolios.
  • I encourage listeners to consider their comfort levels, beliefs, and investment strategies in relation to their stock options and overall portfolio.
  • Creating a family investment statement is highlighted as a powerful tool for accountability and navigating market volatility.
  • I discusse the psychological aspect of investing and the dangers of being influenced by fear, greed, and external opinions.
  • I caution listeners to avoid chasing unrealistic returns and instead focus on long-term sustainability and alignment with personal values.

Welcome to this week's episode where I dive into factors to consider when hiring a wealth planning team.

Most people are familiar with their own balance sheet. As soon as we buy our first car house, we become aware of it. If you're of a certain personality type, you may track it quite a bit. But I'd submit to you that we're unconsciously aware of another balance sheet as well. And this one is pretty tricky to measure and even harder to manage. Sometimes, we often find it hard to put into words. But this is real.

I call this our intangible balance sheet. What I mean by this is those life principles, experiences, memories, that given any amount of money, we wouldn't trade. They're the memories that bring tears of joy to our faces, because we simply just can't imagine life without them. We feel fortunate to have had could be our first jobs proposals, wedding days, birth, struggles, anxieties, fears, hindsight. It's all those things that melt into a memory that brings a distant stare and a smile to our face. showing those things that have made us us.

That's what I'm talking about when I talk about the intangible balance sheet. It's those moments in life that may be financially irrational, but are indispensable parts of our life. So, these episodes are focused on stories that bring us joy, happiness, fulfillment, ultimately, may hold necessary keys that will direct the future of our family, friends, and neighbors. So listen in with us as we uncover some of those stories that are meaningful to our guests. And maybe you'll uncover hidden value on your own intangible balance sheet
