Is it time to break up with international stocks? They’ve been underperforming U.S. markets for years, so should we finally call it quits, or is there still hope for a global comeback? On today’s episode, Joe, OG, Paula Pant, and Jesse Cramer dig into the great international investing debate.

• Are international funds a lost cause? The panel unpacks why they’ve lagged U.S. stocks and whether diversification still makes sense.
• Beyond stocks: Exploring other asset classes—private equity, real estate, commodities, and collectibles (because who doesn’t want to invest in Beanie Babies and vintage lunchboxes?).
• The $3 coin mystery: Yep, that was a thing. And yes, it’s as weird as it sounds.
• Election results and wooden nickels: The intersection of money, history, and questionable currency choices.
• Weekend plans and podcast highlights: Because investing is important, but so is having fun.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Stacking Benjamins episode without some friendly debate, expert insights, and the occasional off-the-wall tangent. Tune in for a laid-back but insightful conversation on making smart investment decisions!
