Experiments are not just for the laboratory they are also for our basement and your finances. Joining us today from Balance Financial Coaching, we’ll welcome the totally balanced Heather Albrecht. From the Earn & Invest podcast, the guy that does lots of experiments it’s Doc G! And finally, from this very podcast, it’s our own OG.
If you know ANYONE who employs people, we’ve got BIG news for you today: Are you interested in how the $2.2 Trillion CARES Act can help businesses and entrepreneurs? PT the founder of Fincon will walk us through how YOU can keep people employed on today’s show. This is a BIG segment that you won’t want to miss if you know ANYONE who employs people.
Finally, during our Magnify Money segment, we’ll talk about our Stacker friend (name withheld) asking us how we can keep our brains sharp when/if we can’t work during this shelter in place time.
Of course, as always we’ll quiz our roundtable on Joe’s Mom’s neighbor Doug’s amazing trivia. We’re talking golf for Doug to get great before he becomes president on today’s show. How much money did the champion of the PGA tour earn last year?
Mom hopes you’re all safe and washing your hands! Enjoy the show.

I’m a little confused. On your recent episode your guest PT discussed the PPP for small businesses and said several times that the program allows you to include payments to your business’ independent contractors as part of your monthly payroll costs, but this seems to be explicitly prohibited in the guidance provided by the SBA (see point #15 in https://www.sba.gov/sites/default/files/2020-04/Final%20PPP%20FAQs%20for%20Lenders%20and%20Borrowers%204-8-20_0.pdf). Can you please clarify?
Joe
I haven’t had time to read your link, Bret, but I’m sure you’re probably right. Everything is moving quickly and when we recorded the interview there wasn’t a final document yet (this FAQ hadn’t yet been published, for one). Information has most probably changed/updated/clarified. Information, as we’ve been saying and will say in episodes this week, is moving quickly and sometimes our sources have 99% of the facts right…but not all of them in this environment. I’d rather get out the word that the PPP can work for you, than wait until the government clarifies every point. Luckily, when you complete your PPP application, during the verification process (we just went through it), the banker will confirm that you have the form correctly. Thanks for your note!

Hey, Bret! The train is about to begin moving fast again, it looks like…the PPP replenishment just cleared the Senate.
