🔥 Bitcoin’s Promise, Crypto’s Reputation Problem | Tyrone Ross Jr.
On this weeks episode of the 9innings Podcast.. A crypto exchange reportedly lost $6.4 billion after a DevOps engineer left a laptop accessible to a North Korean operative and, Tyrone Ross Jr. argues, keeping so much crypto in online “hot wallets” made the damage worse. He joins the show to unpack what’s known, whether Binance can afford to reimburse users, and why Ross thinks crypto customers should get assets off exchanges. The conversation also turns personal: Ross recalls growing up without a bank account and seeing crypto move money in minutes, while acknowledging the industry’s scams, bad actors and steep barriers for the unbanked.

🎙️💰 You Saved Enough to Retire. So Why Can't You?

We explore how employer-sponsored health insurance can mask the true cost of coverage, the challenges of retiring before 65, and the decisions retirees face when choosing between Medicare Advantage and traditional Medicare.We also dive into Social Security's earnings test, the uncertainty surrounding Roth conversion projections, and one of the biggest challenges in retirement that has little to do with numbers: having enough money to retire but still being afraid to stop working or spend what you've spent decades saving.00:00 – Introduction01:37 – Andy Panko Joins the Conversation02:36 – Retiring Before 65: The Health Insurance Gap09:00 – The Hidden Cost of Employer Health Insurance13:26 – Social Security's Earnings Test Explained18:17 – Medicare Advantage vs. Traditional Medicare29:04 – Roth Conversions: Less Math, More Judgment31:34 – Why Retirees Struggle to Stop Working and Spend Their SavingsNEWSLETTER (WHAT NOW): https://substack.com/@9icapital?r=2eig6s&utm_campaign=profile&utm_medium=profile-page Follow Us: youtube: / @9icap Linkedin: / kevin-thompson-ricp%c2%ae-cfp%c2%ae-74964428 facebook: / mlb2cfp Buy MLB2CFP Here: https://www.amazon.com/MLB-CFP%C2%AE-90-Feet-Counting-ebook/dp/B0BLJPYNS4 Website: http://www.9icapitalgroup.com Hit the subscribe button to get new content notifications.

🔥 The AI Spending Boom: Bubble or the Next Industrial Revolution?
In this episode of 9Innings, host Kevin Thompson sits down with Spear Invest founder Ivana Delevska to discuss one of the hottest investment themes in the market today: AI infrastructure and the explosion in data center demand.The conversation explores the growing political pushback against new data center developments in cities like Fort Worth and New York, while highlighting why many rural communities are embracing these projects. Ivana explains the concept of compute constraints, why both AI model training and inference are driving unprecedented demand, and what it all means for investors.Kevin and Ivana also examine the economics of energy, the possibility of space-based data centers, and whether today's AI infrastructure boom resembles the fiber optic buildout of the late 1990s.Despite concerns about elevated valuations and increasing concentration among technology mega-caps, Ivana remains optimistic. She points to powerful demand signals, including Anthropic's rapid revenue growth, as evidence that this cycle is being driven by real adoption rather than speculation alone. – The War on Data Centers: Why Cities Are Saying No – What Does "Compute Constrained" Actually Mean? – Who Pays for AI?

🚨 Inflation Is Falling... So Why Does Everything Still Cost So Much? | ft. Dr. John Harvey
In this episode, host Kevin interviews Dr. John T. Harvey, the "cowboy economist," about inflation and economic policy. Dr. Harvey distinguishes between demand-pull and cost-push inflation, criticizing the Federal Reserve's focus on core CPI while excluding food and energy prices. He challenges conventional thinking about government debt, supports paying living wages despite inflationary effects, and warns about America's short-term economic thinking compared to China's long-term planning. Dr. Harvey argues the Fed has limited ability to control inflation and that misallocation of resources, rather than debt itself, is America's primary economic concern. – Demand-Pull vs. Cost-Push Inflation: Understanding the Difference – Trimmed Inflation Explained: Better Data or Statistical Smoke and Mirrors? – Corporate Profits, Market Concentration, and the Real Drivers of Post-COVID Inflation – The Fed's 2% Inflation Target: Is It Still Realistic? – The Future of the U.S. Dollar, National Debt, and America's Economic Outlook – Quick Fire Round: Inflation Myths, Interest Rates, and What's NextNEWSLETTER (WHAT NOW): https://substack.com/@9icapital?r=2eig6s&utm_campaign=profile&utm_medium=profile-page Follow Us: youtube: / @9icap Linkedin: / kevin-thompson-ricp%c2%ae-cfp%c2%ae-74964428 facebook: / mlb2cfp Buy MLB2CFP Here: https://www.amazon.com/MLB-CFP%C2%AE-90-Feet-Counting-ebook/dp/B0BLJPYNS4 Website: http://www.9icapitalgroup.com Hit the subscribe button to get new content notifications.

🔥 Texas Two-Step: Don't Lose your Homestead Exemption
Welcome to the 9Innings Podcast where we Educate, Empower and Engage. ON THIS WEEKS PODCAST: In this episode, Kevin Thompson, founder and CEO of 9i Capital Group, breaks down the recent changes to Texas property tax laws, with a focus on the 2024 homestead exemption updates and what I call the “Texas Two Step.” We walk through how stricter enforcement is impacting homeowners—especially those who have placed their homes into trusts—and I use my parents’ situation as a real-world example. The key takeaway: you need to make sure your trust documents are structured correctly, respond to appraisal district notices on time, and stay proactive. If you don’t, you risk losing one of the most valuable tax benefits available to Texas homeowners. This is one of those areas where a small oversight can cost you thousands, so working with the right professionals matters.
