Ep 123123: Why You Don’t Have to be Rich & Famous to Fly Private with Nik Tarascio

How much money do you really need to fly private? It turns out, you don't need as much as you’d think. When I was younger, I often wondered, how in the world does someone afford a multi-million dollar plane? I used to think you had to put $15M down to buy one. The reality is, most people finance it over time, and in the process, they take advantage of some serious tax write-offs. Imagine for a moment that you had a BIG exit. Amazing! Except there’s one problem. Now you have to worry about a huge tax liability. I can’t tell you the number of business owners who get nailed with an insane tax bill because they didn’t have a plan in place. Luckily, through the power of accelerated depreciation, financing a plane is one way to offset the amount you’d need to fork over to Uncle Sam. Not only that, but it offers some pretty cool benefits from a lifestyle perspective. Am I suggesting that everyone go out and buy a plane? Absolutely not. BUT, it’s worth noting that it’s not just an option reserved for the rich and famous. You’d be surprised at all the different ways you can be an owner—and we’ll uncover those options (and a whole lot more) on today’s episode. I’m talking with Nik Tarascio, who grew up in the aviation business and has been flying planes since he was in grade 3. He’s now the CEO of Ventura Air Services, an aviation company that he scaled to unprecedented heights during the pandemic, defying industry odds by doubling its fleet despite the steep drop in travel. In today’s conversation, you’ll learn.✅ Why you don’t have to be a billionaire to enjoy the freedom of private aviation.✅ The tax benefits to buying a plane—and how it’s done!✅ Why true joy is not found in material pursuits but in meaningful relationships and sharing experiences with those closest to you. Free GiftNik is sharing a simple to understand PDF report that outlines the major benefits to owning your own plane.To get access to this gift, visit LifestyleInvestor.com/123Want the Full Show Notes?To get access to the full show notes, including audio, transcripts, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit LifestyleInvestor.com/123Get the Lifestyle Investor Book!To get access to The Lifestyle Investor: The 10 Commandments of Cashflow Investing for Passive Income and Financial Freedom visit LifestyleInvestor.com/bookRate & ReviewIf you enjoyed today’s episode of The Lifestyle Investor, hit the subscribe button on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Castbox, Google Podcasts, iHeart Radio, or wherever you listen, so future episodes are automatically downloaded directly to your device.You can also help by providing an honest rating & review.

Ep 108108: Investing in Alternatives, Capitalizing on Inflation, and Building Recession-Proof Businesses with Ben Fraser

Ben Fraser is the Managing Director at Aspen Funds, a private fund that operates real estate funds for investors. He has raised over $100M in the past several years. Before Aspen Funds, Ben worked as a commercial banker and underwriter in boutique assets management. He’s also a contributor to the Forbes Finance Council and a co-host of the Invest Like a Billionaire podcast. Ben’s experience in real estate and banking taught him that even though successfully navigating a recession and rising interest rates can be challenging, the best opportunities appear when the economic landscape is shifting.  In today’s conversation, he reveals why ultra-wealthy individuals and organizations allocate significant portions of their investment portfolios outside the stock market and in alternatives—like real estate, private equity and hedge funds—while the average investor mainly works with stocks and bonds. We also go over his strategies for successfully navigating recessions, why he likes multifamily and self-storage, and his thoughts on the future of the US economy.Free GiftNick’s giving away the first 5 chapters of his book, The 2-Hour Cocktail Party: How to Build Big Relationships with Small Gatherings.

Ep 107107: Scaling Businesses, Exit Deals, and the 2-Hour Cocktail Party with Nick Gray

Nick Gray is an investor, entrepreneur, and author who has started, scaled and sold multiple businesses.  One of his most successful ventures was Museum Hack, which was his unique approach to offering museum tours for people who hate museum tours. It got into the Inc 5000 as one of the fastest-growing companies in the country. Eventually he struck a 7-figure exit deal, and continues to own 15% of the company. While Nick could have enjoyed an early retirement, he decided to follow another passion: connecting with people and helping others build personal and professional relationships. After hosting hundreds of parties, he authored The 2-Hour Cocktail Party, which teaches anyone how to build relationships by hosting small gatherings. New York Magazine has described him as “the host of culturally significant parties.” In this conversation, we go over the lessons he learned from bootstrapping and exiting multiple businesses, why entrepreneurs struggle to find meaning after securing nine-figure exits, and why hosting events is the best way to build your professional network. Free GiftNick’s giving away the first 5 chapters of his book, The 2-Hour Cocktail Party: How to Build Big Relationships with Small Gatherings.

Ep 105105: Let Go of the Past & Overcome Your Trauma with Stefanos Sifandos

If you want to live a rich life, one of the most important assets to invest in is yourself. You can have all the money in the world, but if you don't have your health, the money is pointless. While today’s episode doesn’t cover the usual investing strategies our guests normally speak on, it does offer valuable insight into how someone with a difficult past can face their fear, let go of the past, and completely turn their life around for the better.  I’m talking with Stefanos Sifandos. Stefanos is a behavioral scientist and relationship expert who has worked with Elite Special Forces soldiers, Olympic Gold Medalists, high-performing CEOs, entrepreneurs, world champion fighters, and everyday people, helping them to move past their trauma and step into freedom. Before Stefanos could help all those people, he needed to help himself first. He grew up in a low-income family with an abusive father, and the trauma he went through as a child wreaked havoc on his life as an adult. He became addicted to food, porn, sex, and abusive relationships. After years of struggle, he decided to stop the past from influencing his present. He explored his deep-seated pain and saw the man he could be if he didn’t allow those demons to define him. Today, he no longer fears his insecurities and isn’t afraid to share them with those he loves.  In our conversation, we dig into the importance of facing and working through difficult emotions and past traumas, and surrounding yourself with people who believe in you. We also go over Stefanos’ strategies for doing the inner work he used to overcome years of depression and feelings of self-worth, so he could build a thriving business and freedom lifestyle.Free GiftStefanos and his wife want to share their experiential Sacred Union process with you, which is their framework for building an epic relationship with your partner. To get access to this gift, visit LifestyleInvestor.com/105Want the Full Show Notes?To get access to the full show notes, including audio, transcripts, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit LifestyleInvestor.com/105Get the Lifestyle Investor Book!To get access to The Lifestyle Investor: The 10 Commandments of Cashflow Investing for Passive Income and Financial Freedom visit LifestyleInvestor.com/bookRate & ReviewIf you enjoyed today’s episode of The Lifestyle Investor, hit the subscribe button on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Castbox, Google Podcasts, iHeart Radio, or wherever you listen, so future episodes are automatically downloaded directly to your device.You can also help by providing an honest rating & review.

Ep 90090: Negotiate Like a Pro with Christine McKay

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.

Ep 77077: Bootstrapping vs. Raising Money with Chris & Rob Taylor

Today, I’m speaking with the powerhouse brother duo, Chris and Rob Taylor.Here’s a bit of context…Chris founded a company called Square Root in 2006 which helps automotive OEM field managers understand and act on unique data patterns and opportunities for retailers in their markets. The company was acquired by CDK Global, where Chris continues his journey as Vice President and General Manager.His brother Rob Taylor is co-founder of Austin-based Convey, which was acquired for $255 million by project44. Convey powers direct-to-consumer delivery experiences for more than 2,000 of the world’s largest brands.What’s interesting is that Chris & Rob took very different startup paths, but got to very similar destinations.Chris bootstrapped and scaled a single startup over the course of 17 years and didn’t take a single dollar of outside money.Rob on the other hand, leveraged venture capital to fund 7 different startups over a 20 year period. It’s a go big, go fast strategy.Both paths have pros and cons that we dig into during today’s conversation.These guys have had major exits, and major success, and I wanted to talk to them all about their experience building, scaling, and selling businesses. We discuss entrepreneurship, acquisition deals, IPOs, bootstrapping vs. raising money, VC partnerships, and so much more.  Want the Full Show Notes?To get access to the full show notes, including audio, transcripts, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit JustinDonald.com/77Get the Lifestyle Investor Book!To get access to The Lifestyle Investor: The 10 Commandments of Cashflow Investing for Passive Income and Financial Freedom visit JustinDonald.com/bookRate & Review If you enjoyed today’s episode of The Lifestyle Investor, hit the subscribe button on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Castbox, Google Podcasts, iHeart Radio, or wherever you listen, so future episodes are automatically downloaded directly to your device.You can also help by providing an honest rating & review.
