The $1.26M Gambling Addiction Scandal

This week's lineup: 💰 Financial Fitness Nugget — Walt breaks down why every business needs a payroll reserve fund (and what ChatGPT thinks is the ideal amount to keep in the bank). 📰 Payroll News — AbsenceSoft's new payroll calculation module is changing the game for leave administration, cutting one company's biweekly leave processing from 16 hours down to 2. 🚨 True Payroll Crime: Mayhem in Minnesota — A trusted payroll manager stole $1.26 million over 8 years... to fuel a gambling and pull-tab addiction. We break down how she pulled it off, how she got caught, and why lack of oversight (and greed) are always at the center of these stories. 🍖 This or That: BBQ Summertime Edition — Brisket vs. ribs, charcoal vs. gas, sweet vs. tangy BBQ sauce, mac and cheese vs. potato salad, and cornbread vs. Texas toast. The guys settle it once and for all.
