About this episode

One way to get to know someone better or get closer to them is by doing them a favor. However, there is another way that is even more effective. This episode begins with technique that will bond you with someone you want to get to know - and it is really easy to do. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-initiative/201605/the-power-merely-requesting-favor

Scams and identity theft are rampant - and the scams are becoming more sophisticated. It is really important to understand the latest scams and how to protect your money and identity. My first guest in this episode is attorney Steve Weisman. He has been following the scammers for a long time and understands them extremely well. His highly regarded website www.scamicide.com was named by The New York Times as one of the three best sources of information about Covid related scams. Steve is also author of a book called 50 Ways to Protect Your Identity in a Digital Age (https://amzn.to/3sonvav). Given how likely it is that you will become a victim of a scam or identity at some point, it is really critical you hear his advice

We all have this image in our head of what a negotiation is supposed to be. However, if you listen to my guest Barry Nalebuff, your image is likely to change. Barry is an entrepreneur and professor at Yale School of Management, and author of the book, Split the Pie: A Radical New Way to Negotiate (https://amzn.to/3pvOoYi). This is an interesting discussion that will give you a new perspective on how to approach any negotiation. 

Do you know what the Baker/baker paradox is? IT has to do with remembering a person’s name, which many of us are not very good at. Listen as I describe the paradox and offer a simple technique that will help you remember anyone’s name the next time you see them.
