Rick shares how Veterans Affinity has grown its veteran socials across the Valley and why staying connected can make such an important difference.

This week on Another Money Show, J.R. and Anthony welcome back water expert Mark Burr for another wide-ranging conversation about one of Arizona’s biggest long-term concerns – water! Mark challenges the conventional narrative surrounding water scarcity in Arizona and discusses claims that the state may have significantly more groundwater beneath its surface than many people realize. The conversation explores Arizona’s reliance on Colorado River water, groundwater resources, state and federal lands, existing water infrastructure, potential changes to water policy and why Mark believes Arizonans should be asking more questions about the state’s long-term water strategy. J.R. and Anthony also continue the show's Desert Storm trading card hunt. Saddam Hussein remains elusive, but this week's pack produces General Norman Schwarzkopf — and, somehow, another George H.W. Bush. Then the conversation turns to another historic milestone: the U.S. national debt crossing $40 trillion. J.R. and Anthony compare today's debt with roughly $21.3 trillion in 2018 and $5.5 trillion in 1998, discuss debt relative to the size of the U.S. economy and debate a simple but important question: At what point does the growing national debt start to matter? The discussion expands into government spending, interest rates, the financial system, artificial intelligence, geopolitical uncertainty and other changes J.R. believes could have significant consequences in the years ahead. With so many large and complicated issues competing for attention, the show closes with a more practical message: don't simply get scared and do nothing. Ask questions, prepare where you can and take manageable steps to protect your financial future. -- Visit: AnotherMoneyShow.com Call Rotchford & Associates: (623) 523-0444 Email the show: [email protected] Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AnotherMoneyShow -- Book a no-cost, no-obligation appointment: Call (623) 523-0444 or visit AnotherMoneyShow.com to schedule in-office or Zoom consultations Protect your financial freedom and schedule a free, no-obligation consultation: Book a Meeting  About Another Money Show:We’re your hosts, J.R. and Anthony.

This week on Another Money Show, J.R. and Anthony’s discussions cover another wide-ranging mix including current events, financial planning, listener feedback, and a long-awaited breakthrough in the show's ongoing Desert Storm trading card hunt. The conversation begins with updates from the West Valley networking event and feedback from listeners before turning to Flock cameras, surveillance and privacy concerns, normalcy bias, government spending, the growing national debt, artificial intelligence, geopolitical risks, and several other stories making headlines. Then, the moment J.R. has been waiting for finally arrives: George H.W. Bush emerges from a pack of Desert Storm trading cards. With one of the most coveted cards finally found, the hunt for Saddam Hussein continues! Later, J.R. and Anthony turn the conversation toward your financial future. They discuss why access to more information doesn't necessarily replace the value of good financial advice and they explore different ways people can safeguard their hard-earned savings for retirement. The discussion covers protecting principal, creating reliable lifetime income, balancing growth potential with protection, and why the right financial strategy depends on each person's individual circumstances and goals. Throughout the show, the team emphasizes being proactive rather than reactive — whether you're thinking about changes in the world around you or making decisions about the money you've worked a lifetime to accumulate. -- Visit: AnotherMoneyShow.com Call Rotchford & Associates: (623) 523-0444 Email the show: [email protected] Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AnotherMoneyShow -- Book a no-cost, no-obligation appointment: Call (623) 523-0444 or visit AnotherMoneyShow.com to schedule in-office or Zoom consultations Protect your financial freedom and schedule a free, no-obligation consultation: Book a Meeting  About Another Money Show:We’re your hosts, J.R. and Anthony.

The conversation also covers practical tips on getting organized, choosing a trusted tax professional, and avoiding common tax scams.

This week on Another Money Show, J.R. and Anthony discuss why periods of global unrest and nonstop headlines often cause people to either panic or do nothing at all. The conversation centers on normalcy bias, the tendency to assume things will continue as they always have, even when warning signs are clear. The show touches on recent protests, growing unrest both domestically and abroad, and continued examples of government waste highlighted in the latest Festivus Report. While these topics dominate the news cycle, J.R. challenges listeners to look past fear and frustration and ask a more important question: have you actually adjusted your financial plan to account for uncertainty? Rather than reacting emotionally to headlines, the focus is on taking practical steps to ensure your retirement and long-term financial strategy is positioned to weather worst-case scenarios without overreacting or ignoring risks altogether. The goal is simple: stay informed, stay proactive, and make sure your plan is built for the real world, not just best-case assumptions. -- Visit: AnotherMoneyShow.com Call Rotchford & Associates: (623) 523-0444 Email the show: [email protected] Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AnotherMoneyShow -- Book a no-cost, no-obligation appointment: Call (623) 523-0444 or visit AnotherMoneyShow.com to schedule in-office or Zoom consultations Protect your financial freedom and schedule a free, no-obligation consultation: Book a Meeting  About Another Money Show:We’re your hosts, J.R. and Anthony.

As the holidays approach, the markets seem to be acting like they've had too much eggnog! Prices are moving, headlines are flying, and yet very little feels grounded in long-term fundamentals. This week, J.R. and Anthony discuss the growing sense that we are in a broadly speculative environment. They also revisit precious metals and why investors tend to gravitate toward them, especially when confidence in traditional methods feels shaky. As the year comes to a close, J.R. and Anthony thank listeners who have reached out and worked with them throughout the year.

This week on Another Money Show, J.R. and Anthony take a closer look at the economic headlines as we head into the holiday season and question whether they reflect what Americans are really experiencing. They break down the Federal Reserve’s recent moves and explain why, in their view, many of the decisions coming out of Washington simply do not make sense. J.R. and Anthony also discuss the latest inflation data and why it feels disconnected from the real-world cost pressures families continue to face, even as officials suggest inflation is improving. The conversation also touches on concerns within the banking system, ongoing worries about a market bubble, commentary on recent political and global developments, including President Trump’s primetime address and other headlines making waves this week. As always, J.R. and Anthony encourage listeners to stay informed, question the narrative, and make sure their financial plans are built to handle uncertainty. -- Visit: AnotherMoneyShow.com Call Rotchford & Associates: (623) 523-0444 Email the show: [email protected] Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AnotherMoneyShow -- Book a no-cost, no-obligation appointment: Call (623) 523-0444 or visit AnotherMoneyShow.com to schedule in-office or Zoom consultations.

This week on Another Money Show, J.R. recaps his recent appearances on Joe Jaquint’s Patriot Radio News Hour and how he’s enjoyed contributing to that program over the past several months. He also talks about the Federal Reserve’s latest changes, gold & silver prices, market manipulation, and what he believes may be signs of a broader market bubble.

This week on Another Money Show, J.R. and Anthony dig into the mixed signals coming from the U.S. economy. On the surface, the markets keep pushing higher — but underneath, layoffs are spreading, credit card balances are skyrocketing heading into the holidays, and the national debt continues to climb with no signs of slowing down. J.R. also breaks down how artificial intelligence is accelerating economic changes faster than anyone expected. While AI is boosting productivity, it’s also contributing to job displacement and fueling what could become a dangerous market bubble as investors chase hype over fundamentals. The guys tie these trends back to what they’ve warned about for years: corruption and dysfunction in Washington, a lack of fiscal responsibility, and an economy propped up more by debt than true growth.
