How to Invest During a Crisis: Oil, the Dollar, and What to Do Right Now with Lauren Simmons
The price of oil is skyrocketing— and the ripple effects are spreading fast. Today, Nicole sits down with Lauren Simmons, former trader on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, to break down exactly what's driving market volatility right now and what you should actually be doing with your money. Lauren and Nicole get into why the Petrodollar system is cracking, whether the U.S. dollar is still a safe haven (Lauren's honest answer might surprise you), and where big institutional investors are quietly moving their money. Lauren also opens up about her own portfolio — why she put 10% into gold and silver, why she's steering clear of Bitcoin, and her take on the AI bubble question. This episode was taped on 3.26.26.

Today, Nicole debunks the most viral myths about inheritance and gift taxes, and walks you through exactly how these taxes work, when they actually kick in, and the totally legal strategies wealthy families use to pass on as much as possible to their heirs.
