Have you ever thought about your investments in terms of eternity? Yeah, it's a wild concept, right? We dive into some serious numbers today, like the fact that U.S. retirement assets are sitting at a jaw-dropping $43 trillion. But here’s the kicker: how much of that cash is gonna matter in heaven? The Ultimate Long-Term View: Investing for Eternity? We’re chatting about how to invest not just for retirement, but for an eternal impact that goes way beyond our earthly lives. So, grab a seat, and let’s explore how to make our money work for something that lasts longer than our bank accounts!<a href="https://www.financiallyconfidentchristian.com/blog/investing-eternity-beyond/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Read today's blog article</a><a href="https://youtu.be/Q7njZk1gqpE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Check out the full podcast episode here</a>Ever thought about how your cash stash stacks up in the grand scheme of things? We dive into this mind-bending question that’ll have you pondering your financial choices like never before. I kick things off by throwing out a jaw-dropping stat: Americans are sitting on a whopping $43.4 trillion in retirement assets. That’s not just pocket change; it's 34% of household financial assets! But here’s the kicker—how much of that will actually matter when we kick the bucket? Spoiler alert: probably not a whole lot. The truth is, while we’re busy hustling for those retirement funds, we often forget to invest in what truly matters: our impact on this world and the next.So, how do we shift our perspective from just making bank to making a difference? I share some real talk about valuing people over portfolios. It’s easy to get caught up in the numbers, but let’s face it, it’s the lives we touch that count. Whether it’s helping a family in need or volunteering at a local shelter, those are the stories that matter. And don’t get me started on missions versus margins! Sure, we all like a healthy bottom line, but how about using our finances to fund something bigger than ourselves, like a soup kitchen or a Bible translation? Let’s make our money do some serious good!Finally, we tackle the tough love topic of seeds over stuff. All that shiny stuff we chase? It’s going to break and fade. But seeds? They grow and multiply. I challenge you to think before you splurge: could that cash plant seeds for eternity instead of just filling your closet with more junk? By making small sacrifices today, we can create a legacy that echoes in eternity. So, let’s get to work watering those seeds and making a lasting impact, one investment at a time!Takeaways:<ul><li> Investments aren't just about cash; think about how they relate to eternity. It’s a big idea! </li><li> Over 54% of U.S. households have retirement accounts, but are they investing for more than just retirement? </li><li> True wealth is about the impact you make, not the numbers in your bank account. Keep that in mind! </li><li> Consider prioritizing people over portfolios; every dollar can bless someone’s life directly. </li></ul> <a href="https://www.financiallyconfidentchristian.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LISTEN NOW</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ZyJLydWUPqYaF2mS1l1Yg" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">WATCH NOW ON YOUTUBE</a> (OUR VIDEO VERSION)<a href="https://rumble.com/c/ASKRALPHPODCAST" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">WATCH NOW ON RUMBLE</a> (OUR VIDEO VERSION)<a href="https://financiallyconfidentchristian.com/support" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">SUPPORT THE SHOW</a>Please share our Podcast with all your friends and family!Submit your questions or ideas for future shows - email us at&nbsp;<a href="mailto:ralph@askralph.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ralph@askralph.com</a> or leave a voicemail message on our podcast page <a href="https://financiallyconfidentchristian.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Leave A Voicemail Message</a>Buy Ralph's Book - <a href="https://askralph.kit.com/products/master-your-finances" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mastering Your Finances! </a>Buy Ralph's Book - <a href="https://askralph.kit.com/products/gospel-of-entrepreneurship" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Gospel of Entrepreneurship: Following Jesus in Your Business Journey</a>Buy Ralph's Book - <a href="https://askralph.kit.com/products/how-to-become-a-financially-confident-christian?_gl=1*1xhkstw*_gcl_au*MjIzMTA5MjkxLjE3NTAxNzAwMTIuNDIxNjE5ODQxLjE3NTAxNzAwMTMuMTc1MDE3MDAxMw.." rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">How to Become a Financially Confident Christian</a>Tired of feeling stuck in your business?
