On this week’s Money Matters, Scott and Pat dive into market shifts—tariffs, AI-driven productivity, and surprising earnings—and explain why chasing predictions fails while fundamentals like tax-efficient investing deliver results.
Next, a caller shares his career-change dilemma: should he leave a higher-paying job for a teaching role with a pension? Scott and Pat weigh in on how retirement savings, insurance coverage, and college funding fit into the bigger picture.
Later, another caller with a $9 million stock portfolio reveals his struggle with taxes from heavy dividend income. This leads to a deep dive into tax-efficient investing, where Scott, Pat, and Allworth’s Head of Wealth Planning, Victoria Bogner, break down strategies like gifting stock, using net unrealized appreciation (NUA), and leveraging direct indexing for smarter portfolio management.
The episode closes with actionable insights to help you apply tax-efficient investing in your own financial plan—so you can keep more of what you’ve worked hard to build.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
