World-renowned economist Nouriel Roubini was given the nickname “Dr. Doom” after voicing his concerns on the housing market… right before the housing crash in ’08. As it turned out, he wasn’t fear-mongering, he was just paying attention. While he doesn’t like this nickname, on today's episode, Nouriel tells Nicole that a little doom-and-gloom isn’t a bad thing; if you expect the worst and hope for the best, you can protect your finances from major downturns. In this episode, he tells Nicole how to do that in the face of the current financial landscape. Plus, Nouriel slams crypto so emphatically that even the most passionate crypto bros might start second-guessing themselves.You can find Nouriel's latest book, Megathreats, here: https://nourielroubini.com/books-op-eds/

Have you ever wondered how much money your favorite artist is getting from you listening to their song on repeat? This episode, Nicole talks about the monetization of music with Troy Carter. Plus, not only can Troy pick artists to invest in, he also has an eye for emerging companies. Nicole asks him about his work as an angel investor, and what lessons he’s learned that we can apply to our own investments.

Money is power; while not having money can bring feelings powerless. This shows up in toxic or abusive relationships when one person— maybe a romantic partner, or even a friend or family member— uses that power as a force of control. This episode is all about how to recognize, and overcome, financial abuse. To help us understand this topic, Nicole talks to two experts Gail Tiburzi Buck and Rebecca Oppenheim of NextOPP Search— an executive search firm that donates career coaching to a survivor of domestic violence for every candidate hired: Hire One Help One.To read more about Gail and Rebecca's work, click here: https://www.nextoppsearch.com If you or a loved one is in an abusive relationship and needs help, click here: https://www.thehotline.org
