Mon, 27 Jan 2020 16:00:00 -0600

Welcome back to the show faithful listeners! Ok, so we want you to know that the "work and save" method has not been working for people EVERYWHERE for hundreds of years.

Are those people financially independent or at the level of wealth that you want to be when you are their age? This is today's topic and Steve wants you to know that just because it has been tried 100 times before, you don't have to be the 101 iteration of the failing cycle.

Getting into the action and making effective decisions is the subject of today's show and Steve even has an example of an investor that is well on his way to multimillionaire status by passively investing in apartments over the last 1 years. Does that sound like something you would like to do for yourself? Listen in!

Yesterday Steve talked about the difference between good debt and bad debt but in order to get a more complete understanding of the subject we need to look into the past.

Ep. 82 - Keep Your Money Moving

Tue, 02 Jun 2020 15:00:00 -0600

Welcome back listeners! An interesting habit has formed over a long period of time for the financial lower and middle class and unfortunately it is doing more harm than it would lead everyone to believe at first glance. The FEAR of losing money has led to a lot of people holding onto what money they can earn for dear life so that there is very little chance of losing it. Well the affluent and financially literate are being taught different, instead of holding onto their money, they never allow it to stop moving and growing for them. That is the topic of today's show so take a listen to some of the strategies that Steve is going to talk about that could help you grow that money you are holding onto into even more money that you will be happy to let move along!

Ep. 84 - Why Hasn't Financial Knowledge Been Passed Down?

Mon, 08 Jun 2020 16:00:00 -0600

Welcome back to the week listeners! To get back into the flow of things, Steve is looking back and wondering a relatively simple question: Why isn't the knowledge of financial independence getting passed down generationally? Now this seems like a question fit for the great philosophers but really the answer can be found in the mundane. The knowledge isn't getting passed down because it isn't known. Lots of OTHER knowledge is getting passed down and that might be the single biggest contributor to our generation's financial illiteracy! Listen in and see if you can relate to where Steve is coming from. Be warned! This episode might be difficult.

Ep. 86 - Why Are You NOT Being Taught Financial Independence?

Thu, 11 Jun 2020 15:00:00 -0600

Hi again listeners! Today's topic is going to be focused on education, more specifically, why the general public is not being taught certain types of education. You may notice that when you are listening to this podcast and the many others like it, that some or all of the material are things that you needed to seek out yourself to learn.

Steve explores that idea today and speculates on why that might be and what you can do moving forward.
