  • Gold Prices Hit All-Time Highs (What's That Mean To Us?) SB1747
    Here’s a rewritten version of your “Gold Prices Hit All-Time Highs (What’s That Mean To Us?)” show notes — polished for clarity, SB voice, and listener engagement, with your established tone and avatar in mind: When gold shines, so do the hot takes—and today, the Stacking Benjamins crew dives into what this record-breaking surge really means for your money. Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug kick off the week with their signature Monday salute to our troops before digging into the glittering headlines: gold prices are hitting new highs… but does that make it a smart investment or just financial fool’s gold? From breaking down why gold spikes when markets wobble to questioning whether it’s truly the “safe haven” it’s cracked up to be, the guys unpack the myths, mindset, and math behind precious metals. You’ll also hear fresh strategies for weathering volatile markets, balancing your asset allocation, and staying cool when everyone else is panicking. And of course, Doug drops in with a TikTok Minute, a trivia challenge, and one listener’s wild math-powered success story that somehow involves an Olive Garden. (Breadsticks optional.) So grab your coffee, your calculator, and maybe your lucky coin—because this episode proves that in the unpredictable world of investing, sometimes the smartest move is knowing why you’re holding what you’re holding. What You'll Learn Why gold prices are climbing and what that might signal about the global economy. The myth of “safe haven” assets: When gold works, when it doesn’t, and why diversification still wins. Smart portfolio moves for volatile times—without letting emotions tank your returns. Real-life stories and lessons from Stackers proving that good math (and a little luck) can go a long way. The lighter side of finance: Breadsticks, TikTok, and trivia—because learning about money doesn’t have to feel like homework. Questions You'll Want to Answer: Do you view gold as an investment, insurance policy, or just a shiny distraction? What’s your go-to strategy when markets start getting rocky? Have you ever made a “safe” financial move that didn’t turn out as safe as you thought?

  • Build Wealth AND Community Using This Strategy (with Mel Dorman) SB1745
    What if building wealth wasn’t just about stacking dollars — but also stacking good deeds? In this episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy and OG sit down with Mel Dorman, a powerhouse real estate investor who turned humble beginnings (yes, dumpster diving beginnings) into a thriving portfolio of 34 rental units in just five years. And she didn’t just build wealth — she built community along the way. From negotiating creative seller-financed deals to forging partnerships that benefit both investors and neighborhoods, Mel shares how real estate can be a tool for connection as much as for cash flow. You’ll learn how she leverages relationships, uses alternative financing to scale quickly, and even flips properties without traditional bank loans — all while staying grounded in her mission to help others. But that’s not all: Joe and OG also break down the latest Federal Reserve moves and what they mean for your wallet. And of course, Neighbor Doug drops by with his signature trivia to remind us that building wealth is serious business… but it’s okay to have some fun while you’re at it. What You'll Learn Creative ways to build wealth: How seller financing can unlock deals you never thought possible. The power of purpose: Why combining community impact with real estate investing is a winning formula. Real-world strategies: Mel’s journey from zero to 34 units — and the lessons she learned along the way. How Fed rate changes affect you: What rising (or falling) rates mean for investors and homeowners. Financing myths busted: Why traditional bank loans aren’t the only way to grow a portfolio. Points to Ponder: Could creative financing open doors for your investing goals? How might building stronger community ties improve your financial outcomes? Are you prepared for how interest rate changes could impact your next big money move? This episode isn’t just a guide to real estate success — it’s a reminder that money works best when it works for everyone. Grab a notebook, pour yourself something caffeinated, and join us for a conversation that just might change how you think about wealth building.

Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been stacking for years, this conversation will help you turn “someday” into a solid plan you can actually follow. The gang isn’t just talking theory — they’re breaking down the real reasons plans fail and how to fix them.

And because this is Stacking Benjamins, you can expect plenty of banter, relatable stories, and a trivia detour or two along the way. By the time we wrap, you’ll know how to evaluate whether your plan is truly moving you toward your goals, how to communicate more effectively with your financial pros, and how to stop second-guessing every decision. It’s financial planning with fewer headaches, more confidence, and maybe even a little fun. What You’ll Learn Why most financial plans fail — and how to make yours bulletproof The three crucial elements every solid plan needs (and most are missing) How to incorporate tax strategies, estate planning, and real action steps Smart ways to communicate with your advisor or team about what matters most Questions to Consider How to course-correct if your plan’s gone off the rails Does your financial plan include clear, actionable steps — or just big goals? Have you factored in tax and estate planning, or are you leaving those to chance? Are you confident your plan will work in real life, not just on paper?
