102: Leveraging Life Insurance to Build Tax-Free Wealth with Will Duffy Oct 06, 2022

Show notes

You can’t put a dollar value on your family. But you can make sure their financial future is taken care of in case of unexpected events. Nowadays, we’re sold on the idea that banks are our best bet to do this.

That’s simply not true. Banks only have their interests in mind. And, contrary to popular belief, they’re not bulletproof and can go under. Luckily, there are ways in which you can take care of the financial security of your family and create wealth at the same time.

That’s why you have to listen to today’s episode with my guest, Will Duffy.

Will is a Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC), Retirement Income Certified Professional (RICP), and Enrolled Agent (EA) who became a millionaire at age 33 by following the same contrarian wealth-building and tax-saving strategies he teaches his clients. His proven roadmap helps clients realize their financial goals and secure the future of their families.

In this episode, you’ll learn how the wealthiest people in the world leverage life insurance to build tax-free wealth, the major mistakes to avoid when using life insurance as an investment vehicle, and the bank replacement strategy with much better returns.

Key Takeaways with Will Duffy

Why the wealthiest people in the world are the largest purchasers of life insurance.
Why the “infinite banking” and “bank on yourself” strategies don’t work, and better alternatives you can use instead.
Will’s bank replacement strategy that will get you guaranteed returns on investment regardless of recessions, stock market crashes, and depressions.
The #1 mistake to avoid when using life insurance to invest.
The strategy that life insurance companies don’t want you to know about that helped Justin save millions of dollars on his life insurance policy.
Why do the size and investment portfolio of life insurance companies influence the dividend you’re earning with their policies?
The benefits of life insurance that aren’t activated only by death.
Nobody’s promised tomorrow. Why it’s always better to get life insurance as soon as possible.

Free Gift

Get Will's free book, Roths for the Rich: How To Fund Your Roth With Over $100,000 Each Year. The book will show you how to accumulate the most money possible while paying the least amount possible to UncleSam — using the Roth IRA. You’ll be amazed how much you can sock away tax-free by making the tax laws work for you!

099: Raising Capital, Deal Structure, and Scaling Multi-Million Dollar Companies with Dan Fleyshman Sep 15, 2022

Show notes

Dan Fleyshman is a serial entrepreneur and the youngest founder of a publicly traded company in history.

At 23, after selling $15M worth of clothing in six department store chains and getting a $9.5M licensing deal with STARTER apparel, he went on to scale his “Who’s Your Daddy” energy drink into 55,000 retail stores.

He later launched Victory Poker, which scaled to $65M within 10 months and became a top 5 international poker brand. Unfortunately, poker was banned in the US during that time, and overnight the business imploded. Dan lost everything and was forced to start over from scratch.

While it was a tough blow, he describes it as the best thing that ever happened to him. It led to him building the largest social media influencer agency in the world (Elevator Studio), becoming an angel investor for 37 different companies, starting multiple mastermind groups, and launching an investment fund, as well as an investor syndication group, among many other accomplishments and ventures.

In this episode, we dig into Dan’s entrepreneurial journey and discuss the most significant lessons he learned from building and scaling multi-million dollar companies.

You’ll get to hear his framework for investing in startups, how he attracts investors and funds major deals by structuring unique terms, and the story of starting a modern sports card store during the pandemic that has done $18M in sales in the first year.

Key Takeaways with Dan Fleyshman

Placing “quarterbacks” in your businesses so you can accomplish more without sacrificing your time.
How Dan scaled a $15M clothing brand and took his energy drink public by age 23, becoming the youngest founder of a publicly traded company.
How his $65M online poker company failed overnight, and why it was the best thing that ever happened to him.
What it was like for Dan to get a $9.5M licensing deal with STARTER apparel.
Becoming the largest social media influencer agency in the world (Elevator Studio), and how Dan leverages this business to make equity deals with his clients.
Dan explains how he uses a “rolling fund” to raise capital. This is a fascinating disruption to the traditional fund model that allows accredited investors to commit with a lot less risk.
Learn about Dan’s investor syndication group (now 800+ members) and the criteria he uses to de-risk deals and invest in companies with big potential, including Sneaker Con, which was recently acquired by eBay.
Partnering with the world-famous DJ Steve Aoki and DJ Skee to open Cards & Coffee, a modern sports card store that did $18M in sales in the first year.
Raising capital using the “7, 8, 9 deal structure” and how Dan used this model to attract investors (including myself) and finance Black Site Ranch—an $8M commercial property with a ton of utility and perks!
Learn about Dan’s 100 Million Dollar Mastermind Experience AND the Avengers Real Estate Mastermind.

Free Gift

Dan's giving away 2 of his e-books.

095: Finding Freedom in an Unfree World with Kevin Koskella Aug 18, 2022

Show notes

Are you free? It seems like a simple question, but the answer isn’t always obvious.

Most people live with the illusion of freedom. They have a stable job, nice house, and if they’re lucky, 2-4 weeks vacation. But is that really freedom?

This question is one that today’s guest has dedicated his life to answering. I’m talking with Kevin Koskella—lifelong adventurer, free-thinker, entrepreneur, and author of The Rebel's Guide to Freedom.

Kevin used to feel stuck in the corporate world, slaving away for money and repeating the same day for weeks, months, and even years on end. But when he lost his job during the dot.com crash, he decided that he would never go back to that life.

In this episode, he shares his story from being laid off to starting a lucrative online business, his approach to investing in crypto, and the importance of designing a life on your terms and following your definition of success.

Free Gift

He’s giving you free access to the Freedom Quiz. How free are you in your life? What areas are potential blind spots? Is there any low-hanging fruit? Kevin's quiz will provide an analysis of how to build more freedom.

092: Scale Up On Your Own Terms with Taylor Welch Jul 28, 2022

Show notes

It’s not often you get the chance to speak to a man who dreamed of being a church pastor but instead became a real estate investing mogul.

It’s why I’m excited to talk to Taylor Welch, internationally acclaimed business consultant and entrepreneur. Taylor has advised and serviced over 50,000 businesses worldwide in the last five years and currently sits as CEO of several multi-8-figure companies.

One of the things that I love the most about Taylor is that even amid adversity, he never compromised his mindset of learning and surrounding himself with people smarter than him. Using that mindset, he scaled his first business, Traffic & Funnels, from zero to tens of millions in just five years.

No wonder he built a name for himself in hundreds of industries and is nearing three-quarters of a billion in client revenue.

He’s now pulling back the curtain on how other businesses and individuals can achieve the same level of success. In this episode, we go over his journey from wanting to be a pastor to making millions in real estate, the importance of mindset for creating abundance in every aspect of life, his thoughts on the future of crypto, and so much more.

Free Gift

Passive Income Empire Workshop - a course valued at $1500. This workshop contains the recordings from the first and ONLY place he’s ever broken down his financial models & investment strategies.

090: Negotiate Like a Pro with Christine McKay Jul 14, 2022

Show notes

When people hear the term negotiation, they usually think of tense arguments and nerve-wracking meetings. To think that negotiation boils down to whether someone gets the better deal of the bargain is to operate from a place of scarcity.

Today’s guest, Christine McKay, will be the first to tell you that negotiation doesn’t have to be a “win or lose” scenario. It’s not about winning; it’s about building relationships and being curious about your counterpart.

Christine is the Founder and CEO of Venn Negotiation, a company through which she turns clients into world-class negotiators. She has worked with roughly half of the Fortune 500 companies and negotiated on behalf of hundreds of small and mid-sized businesses.

Before becoming a negotiation powerhouse doing billion-dollar deals, Christine had to overcome adversity. She was homeless, on welfare, and a single mother. On top of that, she struggled with alcohol dependency.

Against all odds and the prediction of many people, she got a scholarship from the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and later earned her M.B.A. degree at Harvard University.

In this episode, we discuss her journey from a homeless person to a world-class negotiator, key mistakes people make in the negotiation process, and the mindset and steps that will make you a negotiator extraordinaire.

Christine's story blew me away, and I think you’ll get a lot of value out of it.

Free Gift

She’s sharing her free report, “Why Not Ask? 16 Ways to Get More” which outlines proven strategies for getting the most out of your negotiations.
