The NIL Revolution
College sports have changed.
Athletes are getting paid. The transfer portal has created college free agency. And billions of dollars are moving through the system.
I sat down with TCU Adjunct Professor Ryan Luckey to discuss NIL, where the money comes from, whether it’s widening the gap between programs, and what comes next.

🔥 NO FREE LUNCH: The Economics of the Subscription Economy
Everything is becoming a subscription—and there’s a reason businesses love it.
Recurring revenue is predictable. It’s valuable. And it keeps you paying.
But remember: their recurring revenue is your recurring expense.

The Payment Economy is here.
Cars. Phones. Furniture. And now even groceries.
We’ve become conditioned to ask, “What’s the monthly payment?” instead of “What does this actually cost?”
In my latest Econ 101, I break down how financing has changed the way we think about affordability and why borrowing from tomorrow to consume today can become dangerous.

🔥 Who Should Actually Be Doing Your Taxes? | CPA vs. EA vs. PTIN
CPA. EA. PTIN.
They’re not the same thing and a CPA doesn’t automatically mean “tax professional.”
In this episode of Facts Over Feelings, I break down what each designation actually means, the differences in how these professionals operate, and what you should know before trusting someone with your taxes.
The letters matter. But so does the experience behind them.

🚨 Social Security isn’t going broke… but that doesn’t mean you’re getting everything you’ve been promised.
The math is becoming harder to ignore.
The trust fund is projected to run short within the next decade, and if Congress does nothing, benefits could automatically be reduced by roughly 20-25%.
This isn’t fearmongering. It’s arithmetic.
In this week’s episode, I break down:
• Why the program isn’t “bankrupt”
• What the projections actually mean
• Why politicians continue to kick the can down the road
• What you should be doing today regardless of what Washington decides
