Rebbetzin Ivy Kalazan talks about how Rosh Hashana (the Jewish new year) is a time for planting the seeds of our intentions for the coming year. Rosh Hashana is not about the past; it's about the future. When we have our mind focused on positivity and our intentions, that energy flows from our head (our thoughts) to the rest of the body, and is manifested in our speech and our actions. Rosh Hashana is a day of possibility. In order for our Rosh Hashana resolutions (intentions) to really last through the whole year, we much take one small action step that is concrete. Once we are consistent with our actions, they become new habits, and we slowly change, grow, and become more elevated human beings.

Rebbetzin Via Kimche discusses EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), also known as tapping. Energy gets stuck in the body, which can result in physical and emotional illnesses. EFT helps to rebalance the energy inside of a person, so that the body can heal itself. This technique can be done with kids, teens and adults with the help of an EFT practitioner. EFT is great for helping people deal with anxiety, depression, trauma, weight loss, addictions, and other emotional maladies.

Rebbetzin Rivkah Slonim, Chabad emissary at Binghamton University in Binghamton, NY, shares practical Jewish wisdom, coupled with modern psychology, in an effort to guide parents in raising their children. It's important to give children a strong sense of their own unique purpose in this world, and show them that fulfilling their purpose leads to true happiness. We must deeply love our children, and connect them to Hashem through our love. We must also model the type of moral, elevated behavior that we would like our children to emulate. We are their role models. Lots of great nuggets of wisdom in this interview!

Even though now isn’t the first time the stock market has fallen by more than 20%, this newest wave of volatility has panicked many investors.
There are two common reactions investors have when the market falls: liquidating portfolios (to prevent further losses) or buying more (to maximize potential gains).
Can you guess which type of call I’ve received more in recent weeks?
While historically stocks have provided greater returns than bonds, there are three times you probably shouldn’t buy stocks:
1. You can’t make ends meet 2. You have no emergency fund 3. You need the money in the short-term
The most important thing in weathering the volatility of the stock market is knowing your risk tolerance and building a well-diversified portfolio (even if it includes low-yield investments) that reflects your risk tolerance and financial goals.
If you need help deciding whether you should sell out your portfolio, hold on, or buy additional stock shares, be in touch. Call 02-624-2788 or email doug@profile-financial.com Together we can try to avoid a financial disaster.

The funny thing about writing a will is you invest time and effort in its creation, and yet you never benefit from it. If you want to make life easier for your heirs, it is an important document to prepare… correctly. While you work with your lawyer to write a will, keep in mind that at the end of the day, it needs to “work.” By “work” I mean that it needs to make sure that distributing your assets to your heirs goes smoothly and it won’t be challenged by a potential inheritor.
I’m not a lawyer, so I can’t advise on the legal issues involved with writing a will. Nonetheless, I have much experience on the practical side of a will, guiding the transferring of assets to the intended.
After working for nearly three decades helping people receive bequeathed assets, I have three suggestions of things to include/not include in preparing a will.
Listen to the podcast to learn these three practical tips, and then download a pdf that you can give to your lawyer explaining why your will should reflect these points.
Wishing everyone a long, healthy, and productive life.

Just because stocks are tumbling doesn’t necessarily mean that all is lost. Sophisticated investors know how to use a down market to up their portfolio.
Listen to the podcast to learn three ways that you can benefit from a falling market.
1. Pretend you’re a farmer and harvest! Tax loss harvesting means selling stocks at a loss and matching that loss against capital gains to minimize capital gain taxes. No one likes to pay taxes, and no one likes stocks to lose value, but tax loss harvesting manages to lessen the negative blow of two potentially unpleasant situations. While savvy investors often use tax loss harvesting at the end of the fiscal year, you can implement this strategy anytime.
2. Take advantage of the stock sale. What does it mean when the market is oversold? Simply put, it means prices have dropped further than they probably should have. When the markets climb, investors who want to lock in their profits sell their stocks. If too many investors sell at once, the market drops; it is oversold. Turn this to your advantage, and talk to a licensed financial advisor about buying additional shares at the lower price.
3. Keep a large cash reserve. Some investors want every penny of their savings invested, thinking that means their money is working the hardest. However, if you don’t have available cash to buy a bargain (see the point above), you might lose out when a buying opportunity presents itself. Note that a large cash reserve meant for investment is not an emergency fund.
No need to get down about a down market, there are strategies that you can use to your advantage.

In this week’s show, Doug and his son, Efraim, discuss spending habits, and if people generally make good choices. Imagine hearing a financial planner tell you that it’s important to spend the money that you have in order to make you happy. Remember the famous dilemma: should you buy a cup of coffee every day, or should you save those few dollars and invest them so you can buy something bigger in the future? What will make you happier?
People who have more money, aren’t necessarily happier than people who earn less. What should you buy to make you happy? Although having an iPhone is nice to have, what studies have shown is that when you donate money and help others, you feel better and more fulfilled.
Outsourcing, buying time and delegating tasks is another way to use your money wisely. Have you ever considered spending your money to free up your time so you have more time to do what you like to do? It’s important to remember that money isn’t the main goal, it’s one of many tools that you can use in order to make you happy.
As the Jewish saying goes “Who is rich? The one who is happy with what he has.”

A visit of an American president to Israel is always a cause for pride, but in Jay Shapiro's opinion, the arrival of US President Joe Biden in Israel also raises some concerns.
The US administration does not hide its desire for Israel to take steps for the good of the Palestinians. Some of these seem petty, but pose a threat to Israeli narrative and Israeli sovereignty.
According to Shapiro, action must be taken with the government in a most decisive manner and it must be made clear to him, even if it involves controversy, that Israel is not prepared to relinquish its sovereignty in Jerusalem or to harm its security in any part of the Land of Israel.

MAZAL TOV! and Congratulations!! You just had a child! How can you ensure that they will be financially secure throughout their life?
Today, Doug speaks with Efraim, who is preparing to be a young father, about tips and tricks for the best way to financially prepare for a growing family, and how to educate young children about money, so you can best raise financially savvy kids.
As parents, we want the best for our kids, but it’s important to remember that a parent is not obligated to hand over $1M to their children when they grow up. Perhaps the best gift a parent could give their children is to educate them so they will be able to manage on their own. It’s never to young to begin teaching your child about money; even a 5-year-old can understand basic concepts, and as they grow older, they can understand more.
Make sure to listen to Doug’s three tips on what to teach your kids on handling their own money.
Don’t forget to model good financial behavior for your children, and put aside money for their future needs. When saving, it is a good idea to invest in an ETF (Exchange Traded Fund)?
Life insurance is something that is crucial for young parents or a young couple to have when they are planning on having kids, so if heaven forbid something happens, your kids will have something to help them get back on their feet.
Let me know how your children react to your implementing the three tips on handling their own money.
