Ep 341Long Term Accountable Results Matter

L-TARIn today's BetterWealth episode, Dan shares with us the acronym that he created for BetterWealth, “L-TAR” which means Long Term Accountable Results. Listen as we discuss the mindset of why long term accountability can be so impactful, as with the model we have the ability to set a goal way into the future and with a long term mindset we use accountability to help achieve those outcomes. Most people like the short term daily accountability where they can check off the box. Listen at how Dan compares accountability to guardrails and why the mindset of long term goals is imperative to the success of reaching one’s desired lifetime goals and aspirations. #BETTERWEALTHFor more information on BetterWealth or the content you hear on the Podcast visit us at www.betterwealth.com/podcast.#BetterWealth📞 Free 15 Minute Clarity Call: https://bttr.ly/ytclarity📕 The And Asset Book: https://bttr.ly/book💸 BetterWealth Quiz: https://bttr.ly/quiz👪 AndAsset.com: https://bttr.ly/andasset🎥 BetterWealth Youtube - https://bttr.ly/bwyoutube🤵🏼 Financial Advisor, Agent or Coach: https://bttr.ly/advisor

Ep 339Your Lifetime Wealth and Money Potential

The true value of long term wealth potential. In today's Better Wealth episode, I want to illustrate the value of long term wealth potential by sharing a video I did 3 years ago. Be sure to join us on our BetterWealth YouTube Channel to watch the video and see my demonstration on the Truth Concepts Calculator. We are so often caught up in the short term transactions and we don’t understand how much we are actually going to make over a lifetime and what the value of that is going to be. Today I show you a video I did over 3 years ago using a calculator by Truth Concept which shows you the truth about math. What you will see is that BetterWealth has been consistent with our message. Listen as I discuss these three points. First, You are your greatest asset and the number one thing bringing money into your life is your ability to work or create value in the world. Second, I talk about how inefficiencies have a damaging effect on our financial life not just in the short term but also the long term. The final area discusses taking risk and whether taking risk is really the best way to maximize your wealth potential. Watch as I break down these three key points are worked a#BETTERWEALTHFor more information on BetterWealth or the content you hear on the Podcast visit us at www.betterwealth.com/podcast.Episode Links & Resources: Caleb Guilliams - BetterWealth YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCThFkB73A_ICEu-LJV2abbw Truth Concepts: Maximum Potential https://truthconcepts.com/buy-now-old/maximum-potential/ #BetterWealth📞 Free 15 Minute Clarity Call: https://bttr.ly/ytclarity📕 The And Asset Book: https://bttr.ly/book💸 BetterWealth Quiz: https://bttr.ly/quiz👪 AndAsset.com: https://bttr.ly/andasset🎥 BetterWealth Youtube - https://bttr.ly/bwyoutube🤵🏼 Financial Advisor, Agent or Coach: https://bttr.ly/advisor

Ep 338If You Only Had One Hour Per Day What Would You Work On?

Are we hypocrites for saying our time is valuable, but not living that way?Episode Description: In today's Better Wealth Breakdown, Dan asks me a simple yet profound question “If I only had ONE hour to work on BetterWealth a day, what would I work on?” Reflecting on each point of your day and asking “is this really the best use of my time?” Most people get things done when you draw a line in the sand, but procrastination isn’t always the most efficient or best use of your time. However, listen as we discuss the importance of time and if you were to really view your life with deadlines how much more intentional would you be with your time.#BETTERWEALTHFor more information on BetterWealth or the content you hear on the Podcast visit us at www.betterwealth.com/podcast.#BetterWealth📞 Free 15 Minute Clarity Call: https://bttr.ly/ytclarity📕 The And Asset Book: https://bttr.ly/book💸 BetterWealth Quiz: https://bttr.ly/quiz👪 AndAsset.com: https://bttr.ly/andasset🎥 BetterWealth Youtube - https://bttr.ly/bwyoutube🤵🏼 Financial Advisor, Agent or Coach: https://bttr.ly/advisor

Ep 337After Collapse with Author Max Borders

We should not let fear govern us, and instead we should be the change we want to see in the world. In today's Better Wealth episode, I had the opportunity to interview Max Borders, co-founder of Future Frontiers , founder of Social Evolution, and author of  After Collapse: The End of America and the Rebirth of Her Ideals and The Social Singularity: A Decentralist Manifesto. Max joins me today to discuss his experience in “value creation” and his 7 key breakdowns in his book 1.) Breakdown of Models and Metaphor 2.) Breakdown of Hierarchy 3.) Our belief in the Founding Ideas is Fading 4.) Breakdown of Mutual Aid in Society 5.) Collective Intelligence is Fractured 6.) Civil Discourse Is Deteriorating  7.) Financial Structure & Debt. Listen as we dive into the current belief how “debt spending doesn’t matter” and what that could mean for our future. Listen as Max shares the need for communities and individuals to begin to focus less on the big government for change and rely more on our ability as people to help, serve, grow and be the change we want to see. Listen as Max talks about his ideas of how people can begin to prepare for an economic collapse. Listen as Max gives practical steps for helping prepare for a collapse aside from gold, gardens and guns, but rather getting to know your neighbors! Finally, Max gives a very passionate and deep answer in his legacy question that is heartfelt and inspirational. #BETTERWEALTHFor more information on BetterWealth or the content you hear on the Podcast visit us at www.betterwealth.com/podcast.Guest Bio: Max Borders is author of After Collapse: The End of America and the Rebirth of Her Ideals and The Social Singularity: A Decentralist Manifesto. Max is also co-founder of the event experience Future Frontiers and founder of Social Evolution, an organization dedicated to liberating humanity and solving social problems through innovation. First and foremost, Borders is a thinker and author. His two most recent books are dedicated to the blessings of decentralization. Whereas The Social Singularity focuses on redesigning the protocols for healthy human interaction (the “rules” and “tools); After Collapse focuses on redesigning the moral and cultural order around those rules and tools. Whether one is referring to decentralizing hierarchical firms or decentralizing power in society, Borders remains at the forefront of conversations about how to change our relationship to power at every sphere and scale--including relationships that begin in the deepest recesses of the human heart. Along with co-founder, Seth Blaustein, Borders helped take the Future Frontiers from its first event in 2012 through eight event cycles. The idea behind Future Frontiers has always been to paint a picture of a future in which human beings flourished. The idea has always been to let attendees draw inspiration or to kindle their imaginations, so they could go out into the world and “criticize by creating.”Guest Links: Check out Max’s Books:After Collapse - https://www.amazon.com/After-Collapse-America-Rebirth-Ideals/dp/1732039410/The Social Singularity - https://www.amazon.com/Social-Singularity-decentralization-prosperity-apocalypse/dp/1732039402/Social Evolution - https://social-evolution.com/support/#BetterWealth📞 Free 15 Minute Clarity Call: https://bttr.ly/ytclarity📕 The And Asset Book: https://bttr.ly/book💸 BetterWealth Quiz: https://bttr.ly/quiz👪 AndAsset.com: https://bttr.ly/andasset🎥 BetterWealth Youtube - https://bttr.ly/bwyoutube🤵🏼 Financial Advisor, Agent or Coach: https://bttr.ly/advisor

Ep 330Do You Suffer From Recency Bias

Emotional decisions most likely come from recency bias. In today's Better Wealth Breakdown, Dan and I talk about the topic of “Recency Bias” which is the concept that whatever information you most recently consume becomes the thing that you tend to consume your thoughts, discussion and conversations immediately after. Usually recency bias is a key factor why we make more emotional decisions and then have it fade away so quickly. Dan and I challenge listeners to ask “Where in your life  can you relate to recency bias?” Also, I suggest that the solution to recency bias is being really clear on what your outcomes are and being clear on what you should be saying yes to and then saying no to.  Listen as we discuss different ways we can battle and push away from recency bias.#BETTERWEALTHFor more information on BetterWealth or the content you hear on the Podcast visit us at www.betterwealth.com/podcast.#BetterWealth📞 Free 15 Minute Clarity Call: https://bttr.ly/ytclarity📕 The And Asset Book: https://bttr.ly/book💸 BetterWealth Quiz: https://bttr.ly/quiz👪 AndAsset.com: https://bttr.ly/andasset🎥 BetterWealth Youtube - https://bttr.ly/bwyoutube🤵🏼 Financial Advisor, Agent or Coach: https://bttr.ly/advisor

Listen to his story of discovering intentional living through the development of foundations that give back. Matt shares with us the difference between nonprofits and foundations, as well as, the pros and cons. Matt discusses with me how the control of money can be maintained through foundations. Matt explains how being wise with money might lead to family foundations because of the tax deductions. While, we also discuss the differences of nonprofits and how dollars could be going further in the nonprofit world.

Ep 325Can You Accomplish More With A Team?

A normal draft-horse can pull 8 thousand pounds, while two draft-horses can pull up to 32 thousand pounds.In today's Better Wealth Breakdown, Dan and I discuss the impact of a team. Listen as Dan describes how working together can accomplish more, but when learning to work together you can accomplish infinitely more than you imagined. However, a team rowing in opposite directions will not accomplish anything, but a team rowing in the same direction can go farther than expected. We challenge the idea of “the lone wolf” in business, in life, and even in finances. Building a team doesn’t just apply to business owners, but it may mean that you join a team of experts to help you in areas of your life where doing it alone might actually cost you significantly more. Clarity and efficiency of your vision necessitates the need to bring in a team or work with someone that can accomplish more.#BETTERWEALTHFor more information on BetterWealth or the content you hear on the Podcast visit us at www.betterwealth.com/podcast.#BetterWealth📞 Free 15 Minute Clarity Call: https://bttr.ly/ytclarity📕 The And Asset Book: https://bttr.ly/book💸 BetterWealth Quiz: https://bttr.ly/quiz👪 AndAsset.com: https://bttr.ly/andasset🎥 BetterWealth Youtube - https://bttr.ly/bwyoutube🤵🏼 Financial Advisor, Agent or Coach: https://bttr.ly/advisor

Listen as Dominc and I discuss the ins-and-outs of policies loans. We identify a big misconception and give the correct distinction between borrowing from the policy loan verse against the policy. Listen as Dom discusses the “myth” behind paying yourself back when you pay interest and the indirect benefits of mutual companies. Dom and I also discuss several commonly asked questions around loan structure, if policies loans affect credit scores, and recognition or non direct recognition.

Ep 316Own Your Own Lifestyle With Wealth Nation

Money doesn’t have value, until you use it!In today's Better Wealth episode, I had the privilege and honor of interviewing Darius and Carmen Britt from Wealth Nation. As the infamous YouTube IBC couple, Darius and Carmen have been helping educate people on building real independent wealth and financial freedom.  Listen as Darius and Carmen share their story of being in debt, paying off debt with Dave Ramsey philosophies and practices, moving into real estate investing to one day discovering how one man gave his dollars more than one job through a policy loan and why that man’s understanding of money shaped the future for Darius and Carmen in the Infinite Banking World. Darius and Carmen share with us their knowledge on the banking system, manufacturing compound interest, money mindset, control, finances, and the reason behind your why.  Carmen and Darius share some powerful inside into the idea that you are in control of the goals you want in your life, your finances and your future, you only have to go DO IT! Join me for an inspirational interview with Darius and Carmen Britt on their impactful ideas on finances, money mindsets, money value, and intentional living. #BETTERWEALTHFor more information on BetterWealth or the content you hear on the Podcast visit us at www.betterwealth.com/podcast.Guest Bio: Darius and Carmen Britt are the Founders of Wealth Nation. They started Wealth Nation to help entrepreneurial and ambitious individuals discover the real rules of the money game, break free with true financial independence, and own their own lifestyles. At the beginning of their career Carmen and Darius followed the traditional “society standards.” They went to college for traditional education in hopes of “making it big” in corporate America.  Darius has a degree in Engineering and Carmen has a master’s degree in Communication. They climbed the corporate ladder to obtain high level managerial roles, maintained good credit, and invested in retirement accounts/stocks to “get ahead.” Although they brought home over six figures in income, they never felt satisfied with their financial state, so they started a side hustle investing in real estate. After gaining extensive knowledge from their wealthy investors, they discovered that the rules that apply to the middle class, don’t apply to the upper class. With this knowledge they decided to create a community to share the real truths of the financial industry. Thus, Wealth Nation was born. As of this date, Darius and Carmen have been helping people build real independent wealth and financial freedom for over 5 years now and have already generated over $75 million for the clients with a financial system, they call Lifestyle Banking.Guest Links: Learn more about Darius and Carmen Britt at WealthNation.ioCheck out their YouTube Channel Wealth Nation#BetterWealth📞 Free 15 Minute Clarity Call: https://bttr.ly/ytclarity📕 The And Asset Book: https://bttr.ly/book💸 BetterWealth Quiz: https://bttr.ly/quiz👪 AndAsset.com: https://bttr.ly/andasset🎥 BetterWealth Youtube - https://bttr.ly/bwyoutube🤵🏼 Financial Advisor, Agent or Coach: https://bttr.ly/advisor

Dan and I challenge listeners to think less rolling the dice and “doing life over” but rather rolling the dice for a “new tomorrow.” Intentional living is a focus on future living!#BetterWealth📞 Free 15 Minute Clarity Call: https://bttr.ly/ytclarity📕 The And Asset Book: https://bttr.ly/book💸 BetterWealth Quiz: https://bttr.ly/quiz👪 AndAsset.com: https://bttr.ly/andasset🎥 BetterWealth Youtube - https://bttr.ly/bwyoutube🤵🏼 Financial Advisor, Agent or Coach: https://bttr.ly/advisor

Ep 292Modeling A Tax Advantaged Pension

Sometimes models are off balance simply because there is no accountability. In today's Better Wealth Episode of ‘From the 'Frontlines’  where Jereme and I discuss another case study and give examples of how we are serving people on the frontlines. In today’s case study we discuss tax advantage pension plans for Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Listen as Jereme describes the process of making decisions doesn’t start with working forward with where you are now, but rather “taking a step back” so we can look down the road to discover your why so you can build a framework of where you want to go...then plan because we started with the end in mind. Listen as we discuss how Mr. & Mrs. Smith’s model was off balance at first glance. Sometimes models are off balance simply because there is no accountability, but once there was accountability see how we discovered thousands of dollars they were not even aware of in their tax advantage pension plan. #BetterWealth📞 Free 15 Minute Clarity Call: https://bttr.ly/ytclarity📕 The And Asset Book: https://bttr.ly/book💸 BetterWealth Quiz: https://bttr.ly/quiz👪 AndAsset.com: https://bttr.ly/andasset🎥 BetterWealth Youtube - https://bttr.ly/bwyoutube🤵🏼 Financial Advisor, Agent or Coach: https://bttr.ly/advisor
