World on Edge, Wallets on Alert: Why Chaos Could Be Good for Your Finances

The world may feel like it’s teetering on the edge—from war chatter and domestic unrest to inflation, immigration, and AI—but your money doesn’t have to be. Anthony Carrao and J.R. Rotchford of Rotchford & Associates return with an unfiltered look at how global chaos impacts markets—and why financial planning still matters more than ever. They unpack why war has historically driven markets up, the latest unrest in Arizona and across the U.S., the long-term care planning most families ignore, and how annuities can provide leverage in uncertain times. Oh, and there's iced tea (or is it whiskey?), M&M analogies, Spanish anthems, and bunker plans in Snowflake.

This week’s episode is wild, weird, and packed with financial advice that cuts through the noise.

Meet J.R.: J.R. Rotchford joined his family’s business, Rotchford & Associates, in 1998 after serving in the U.S. Air Force, graduating from ASU and working for a newspaper and then an elevator company for a short period of time.

Meet Anthony: In 2018, Anthony Carrao became the 4th generation of the family business after leaving behind a career as an Industrial Engineer.
