Episode 55: What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up?

An age-old question that we’ve all been asked, “what do you want to be when you grow up?” suggests our childhood passions always turn into our adult occupations. But we all know this is not the case; otherwise, the world would only have police officers, firefighters, astronauts, and paleontologists. The truth is, life is a maze of doors where some are open, some are closed, and some take you to places you’d never imagine. Today’s episode centers around “Boomerang Kids” – children who come back home after college – and why this generation of young adults has a difficult time finding or committing to a career. We’ll break down some impressive statistics about career changes in today’s society and why getting a degree is not always the answer. With the rise of workforce development programs and the destigmatization of trade schools, it’s more important than ever to teach our kids that there are other paths to consider. Join us as we talk soft skills vs. hard skills, taking a “gap” year, high-paying jobs that don’t require a four-year degree, plus much more!

Episode 54: Father's Day Fun

As we approach Father’s Day, we wanted to dedicate an entire episode to the patriarchs in our lives. We are breaking down the history of this holiday and bringing back Twitter Nuggs, reading some of the funniest tweets all dads can relate to. It wouldn’t be a dad-centric episode if we didn’t talk about sports, so Katie and Cort will discuss the sporting industry and the incredible amount of money that surrounds it. We’ll also talk about how much athletes bring in and why so many go broke, despite the big paychecks. It all starts with financial literacy – which is why we do this show – and it is so important to educate our youth on how to handle finances so that they can create a successful future. Tune in to this fun yet thought-provoking episode.

Episode 53: BullCast Birthday Bash

It’s our birthday! We can’t believe our baby bull is already a one-year-old, and to celebrate this occasion we are having a Bovine Birthday Bash, BullCast-style. It’s been a momentous year for us, despite the unexpected events we’ve all shared, and we sure have learned a lot along the way. In today’s episode, we are removing the glitz and glam by giving our listeners an honest look at how our show is made. From the creation of our weekly episodes to the (sometimes) heated debates behind the scenes, this episode is unlike any other we’ve done. It’s a hilarious look at how the BullCast team juggles their relationships, producing a show, and maintaining their day jobs. We’ll start with a walk down memory lane, listing out the successes – and complete fails – from year one. Then, we’ll break down how this show came to fruition, paint the picture of what our recording space looks like, and what we look forward to in year two. Join us for this fun, candid episode where we take stock of what has happened in a year and look toward delivering even better content in the future. Thank you, friends, for making BullCast your go-to personal finance podcast!

Episode 51: Know Your Net Worth

In honor of National Be A Millionaire Day, we’re talking about a number that defines every person. No, not your social security number or your credit score. It’s net worth and when you hear it, you probably associate it with the ultra-wealthy. The truth is anyone can calculate their net worth, and it’s a great way to understand your own financial health. Join us as we discuss the millionaires of our childhood versus the millionaires of today, why tracking your net worth is important, and the importance of gaining perspective when it comes to reaching your goals.

In this week’s episode, we are expanding on our Mother’s Day show by taking a deep dive into caring for your parents. Even though people are living longer in today’s world, it’s critical to have open conversations now about getting a plan in place for when they will need assistance. This may be a touchy subject for some, but it is important to “face the music” and care for those who care for you. We’ll discuss setting goals, researching senior housing/assisted living options, financing it all, and long-term care insurance.
