In this episode of the podcast we tackle these two questions:

Is it legal to engage in asset protection planning?
Is it moral to engage in asset protection planning?

Short answer? Yes and yes. If that's enough for you, just skip listening to this episode. But if you'd like a bit more texture to the discussion, enjoy the podcast for a discussion of the legality and morality of asset protection planning.

601-Asset Protection Planning for Mere Mortals - Part 1 Nov 13, 2018

Show notes

I love the topic of asset protection planning. It's super interesting to me.

But my observation is, like most topics, people involved in the business talk about what they can sell. The lawyers talk about corporations and trusts because they sell them. The insurance agents talk about life insurance and annuities because they sell them.

Since I don't sell that stuff, I think about you and what I think can help you.

And in today's show, I want to give you a simple starting place: think about your assets and think about the risk you're trying to protect them from. Then make your plans.

Details in the show.

599-Appreciating Our Rich and Peaceful Lives in the Midst of Political Turmoil Nov 06, 2018

Show notes

As many U.S. Americans engage in vigorous political debate today and follow with their vote, I want to share a story with you that I hope will help you to appreciate the richness of political peace. Not everyone in the world has it as good as you and I have it. But, as we vigorously debate political issues, it's easy to miss the blessing of the underlying framework of peace and prosperity that we enjoy.

Enjoy this personal story.

597-Debt-Freedom Leads to Career Freedom to Become a Financial Adviser: Interview with Matt Miner from Design Independence Oct 30, 2018

Show notes

On this episode we welcome Matt Miner back to the show. Matt previously came on the show to discuss whether going back to graduate school is a good financial move.

Since that interview, Matt left his corporate job and became a financial advisor!

In this interview we explore two themes:

How good financial planning and preparation enables a move to a better career fit. This is an important component of a progressive plan towards financial freedom.
How a personal finance aficionado can make a move towards working as a financial advisor without sacrificing their integrity.

Enjoy!
