The Wealth Perspective Podcast

We’ve all heard the rumors — “Social Security is running out.”

But how true is that, really?

In this 2025 reality check, I walk through what’s actually happening with Social Security, how the system is funded, and what it means for your retirement plan.

How do you know when you’ve made it?
Is that something someone tells you...or something you get to decide?

In this episode of The Wealth Perspective, Nick explores one of the hardest questions in money and life: how much is enough?

Most of us know time is limited...but it's hard to really feel or quantify.

In this episode, Nick shares the idea of "The Tail End" which is the title of a piece written by Tim Urban. This piece can completely change how you see the time left with the people who matter most.

Ronald Read was a Vermont janitor and gas station attendant who lived quietly, drove a used car, and wore flannel shirts.

When he passed away in 2014, the world was stunned to learn he left behind an $8 million fortune.

In this episode of The Wealth Perspective, we explore his story — how he built wealth without a big salary, what it reveals about the power of time and discipline, and why his legacy challenges the way we think about money.

Money fights are much less about dollars than they are about values. In this first episode of The Wealth Perspective, Nick explores the five money perspectives that show up in every relationship: how we communicate, how much we worry, whether we focus on today or tomorrow, how we view ownership, and the meaning we attach to money itself.
