In this episode of Wealth Wisdom, we dive into Bill Perkins’ book Die With Zero and unpack what it really means for financial planning, wealth management, and living life intentionally. Should you spend your money while you can, or save for later? The team explores this thought-provoking question while connecting it to real client stories and everyday financial decisions.
We also cover the latest market trends—from interest rate cuts and mortgage rates, to Nvidia’s earnings, Cracker Barrel’s logo fiasco, and how brands like American Eagle are leveraging celebrity partnerships. And as always, we spotlight one of our portfolio holdings—this time, BJ’s Wholesale Club.
We dive into: 📉 Why the Fed may be preparing for two rate cuts before year-end—and what it means for borrowers and investors 💻 Nvidia’s dominance in AI and why investors are both excited and cautious 🍽 The Cracker Barrel logo backlash and what it teaches us about branding and stock reactions 💍 Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s engagement news—and the surprising ripple effects on brand value and stocks 📘 Key takeaways from Die With Zero—how to align spending, saving, and experiences for a more fulfilling life 🏪 Why BJ’s Wholesale made it into the portfolio (and how it compares to Costco in today’s market)
Wealth Wisdom aims to give you the insights and tools to navigate financial trends with confidence. Through conversations like these, we strive to make complex financial topics more accessible and actionable for everyone.
At Fox Hill Wealth Management, we believe wealth is about more than just money - it’s about financial freedom, confidence, and security. As a fee-only, fiduciary Registered Investment Advisor (RIA), we provide unbiased, expert financial guidance with your best interests at heart.

In this episode of Wealth Wisdom, we're diving deep into the ROI of a college education and exploring why a new generation is reconsidering the traditional path.
We kick things off with this week’s headlines:
Is AI in a bubble? We discuss a recent 15% drop in Palantir’s stock and whether it signals a tech bubble burst. Bill points out that with a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio in the seven hundreds, Palantir's valuation is "insane".
Inflation & The Fed: We talk about the latest CPI and PPI reports, discussing why inflation remains a concern even with a potential 25 basis-point rate cut from the Fed.
Retail Rivalry: We highlight Walmart's strong performance, especially in groceries, contrasting it with Target’s recent struggles and a CEO change.
The ROI of College: Is It Still Worth It? 🎓
With an average of $39,000 in federal student loan debt per borrower, we break down the financial reality of higher education.
Financial Benefits: Only 52% of Americans who attended college say the financial benefits outweighed the cost.
The Alternative Path: A surprising 70% of teens report their parents are open to them exploring alternatives to college.
The Trade School Advantage: We argue that while a four-year degree can lead to a higher average starting salary, trade schools offer a much higher earning floor with less debt. A self-employed plumber, for example, can charge upwards of $300 an hour in some areas.
We shine a spotlight on one of our portfolio companies:
Uber. 
We dive into the company's bold move to partner with major players like Waymo and Lucid to launch a fleet of 20,000 robo-taxis within the next six years.
Profitability & Growth: The company is now profitable, boasts a healthy $7 billion in annual cash flow, and recently announced a share buyback.
The Driverless Future: We discuss the potential for this move to revolutionize the ride-sharing industry. Early data shows no drop in demand for regular rides in cities where robo-taxis have launched, a promising sign that the technology will complement, not cannibalize, the existing business.
As always, if you got value from the episode, be a friend and share it with one. We'll see you next Friday!

We dive into: 🎨 How Ryan went from making pieces in high school for brownies and pizza… to selling large-scale works for thousands of dollars 🌳 The incredible story behind his 13-foot welded steel tree installation in New Hampshire 🏛 The wildest (and most expensive) project he’s done—a 66-piece steel word wall for a luxury spa in Las Vegas 💡 How he defines “wealth” and the mindset shifts that helped him embrace his role as an artist and business owner 🏗 His boldest move yet: building Split Rock Studios, a two-family artist residence and creative space on a horse farm 🤝 Why community, networking, and showing up for others have been key to his success
A huge thank you to Ryan for sharing his journey, humor, and hard-earned wisdom. Stories like his are a reminder that turning your passion into a career is possible—with the right mindset, persistence, and a little creativity.

In this episode of Wealth Wisdom, we sit down with Shari Flight, co-founder of Ember Holistic Care, to talk about what really happens after a dementia diagnosis—and how to plan, prepare, and protect both your loved one and yourself.
We dig into: 🧠 Dementia vs. Alzheimer’s—why they’re not the same thing (and why most people get this wrong) 🏥 How to choose the right assisted living or memory care facility—and the sneaky questions you have to ask 💸 The real cost of care (spoiler: $10K–$20K/month isn’t unusual) and how to avoid financial burnout 💪 Prevention tips that actually help—think diet, exercise, learning new skills, and even red light therapy 👨‍👩‍👧 How to mediate family disagreements before they blow up into full-on battles

Tax law just got a glow-up, and if you’re a business owner, investor, or anyone who files a return (so, yeah, basically everyone), you’re going to want to pay attention.
In this episode of Wealth Wisdom, we break down what everyone’s calling the “One Big Beautiful Bill”—Trump’s latest tax reform that’s packed with changes affecting your deductions, depreciation, and dollars.
We dig into: 💸 The return of 100% bonus depreciation, what it means and how to actually use it 🏡 Opportunity Zones 2.0: why this could be huge for real estate investors 🧾 SALT deduction cap jumps from $10K to $40K (yup, four times bigger) 👶 The new “Trump Accounts” for kids are they a smart savings tool or just a political flash? 🚙 The truth about writing off that SUV (spoiler: it’s not as easy as Instagram says)
Before we dive into the bill, we hit this week’s headlines: 📈 The Fed holds steady (again), but inflation isn’t done yet 🇪🇺 Trump signs a trade deal with the EU—plus rebate check rumors?? 📉 Amazon stock drops post-earnings while Meta and Microsoft crush it 💰 Bezos sells $5.7B in shares—smart tax move or prepping for Mars?
And to wrap it all up, we spotlight one of our portfolio names: TJX Companies (aka TJ Maxx, Marshalls, HomeGoods). We’re up nearly 90% on it, and there’s a reason why. From “the treasure hunt” shopping model to weathering online retail and inflation, TJX continues to prove it's more than just a bargain bin play.

Most people try to build wealth without knowing what it’s really for—but in a world where markets shift fast and AI is changing everything, having a clear financial vision matters more than ever.
In this episode of Wealth Wisdom, we unpack Dreamlining, a bold, practical approach to financial planning that starts with your dream life and works backward to fund it.
We break down: 🌟 What Dreamlining really is—and why it’s more than just vision boards and wishful thinking 📅 How to map out your dreams over 6-month, 2-year, and long-term timelines 💸 How to calculate the real cost of your dream life—and make it financially possible 🚐 Real-world examples: from RV life across America to culinary sabbaticals in France 🏡 Why creative planning (renting, downsizing, geo-arbitrage) can help you live better now, not just “someday”
Before we dive in, we kick things off with this week’s market breakdown: 📈 S&P 500 hits new highs—AI momentum and policy tailwinds keep driving growth 🤖 Google beats earnings, rolls out Gemini AI across all search, despite fears of falling behind 🚗 Japan–U.S. trade deal shakes up automakers, Toyota jumps on tariff shift 🏠 Real estate update: home prices hit records, but market shows signs of cooling 📉 Mortgage rates still hovering around 6.9%, what it means for buyers and sellers
Then we turn the spotlight to Arista Networks, one of the lesser-known names powering the AI infrastructure behind the scenes. With almost half its revenue tied to big cloud and AI players, it’s a company the team believes is worth watching closely.

We break down:

📉 Why being too conservative in retirement can be just as risky as being too aggressive
💰 How to set up “buckets” of money for security, growth, and long-term needs

In this episode of the Wealth Wisdom Podcast, we break down the 7 Levels of Wealth, a practical roadmap that shows how to go from living paycheck to paycheck… to living with freedom, security, and real financial independence.

And before we dive into the 7 levels, we kick off with this week’s economic update: 💥 S&P 500 hits all-time highs—what's driving the rally? 🤖 Nvidia crosses $4 trillion—how AI and Bitcoin mining are connected 📉 Will interest rate cuts really come in 2025? 🌍 Trump’s new tariffs on Brazil and Canada—and how markets are reacting 🪙 Bitcoin’s surge, CoreWeave’s GPU empire, and what it means for investors

About this Episode:
Is investing entirely in equities reckless, or the smartest way to build long-term wealth and outpace inflation?
In this episode of Wealth Wisdom, we break down one of our most talked-about strategies: why we often recommend a 100% stock portfolio for investors with a long time horizon, and how this approach can actually lower your risk over time.
We dive into essential questions that every investor should ask: 📉 Is the stock market too volatile to go all-in? 🏦 Should I diversify with bonds, gold, or real estate? 🧠 What mindset helps you stay the course during market downturns? 💡 How does inflation quietly erode wealth, and how do equities protect against it?
You’ll also discover: 📊 How to use “investment buckets” to manage short-term needs and long-term goals 📆 Why having a 10+ year time horizon changes your portfolio strategy 📈 What real diversification within equities actually looks like 📉 Why playing it “safe” could be the riskiest move for your financial future 📰 How to tune out market noise and media fear-mongering
Plus, we spotlight Meta (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Threads)—one of our current equity holdings—and why we invested when others were selling.
If you’re researching how to build a retirement portfolio, beat inflation, or invest for the long term, this episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.We’re not here to tell you what to think—but to help you think better, with more clarity, confidence, and strategy.
