There are three ways to boost your net worth: you can invest more money, but keep in mind that we’re in it for the long haul- it takes decades for compounding to really kick in. You can earn more money which is a ton of fun- who doesn’t like getting promoted or earning a fat bonus at work? But again, this can take years of grinding it out, at the very least months of hard work in order to stand out among your peers. OR, there are changes that you can literally make immediately by cutting your expenses in order to save more money. That’s what we’re discussing with our guest today, Michael Timmerman. Michael writes over at MichaelSaves.com, his YouTube channel has over 25 million views- in part because he's virtually a human guinea pig, working on our behalf to test products and services to make sure we’re getting the best deals possible. And today we have a great conversation centered around the many different scrappy ways that we can save on streaming, cell phones, and more!

Just like how we can idolize ‘finding the right one’ when looking for a partner or spouse, the same can be true of passive income as we’re talking about our personal finances. We can be tempted into thinking that if we only find the right person then it’s smooth sailing. But as anyone who has been in a long-term relationship knows- the work has only just begun! The same is often true of the different passive income opportunities that we hear pitched in social media or hawked in YouTube videos. Passive income is a legit and real concept, but the way it’s often presented doesn’t include the full story, or they leave out some crucial details. There are very few sources of 100%, purely passive income and so that’s why we are dispelling the myth that there are opportunities around every corner, but have a listen because there are ways you can begin establishing your own future streams of income, today.

With Bitcoin near all-time highs, maybe you’re thinking “DANG, I need to buy some… BTC is going to the moon after all!” Well not necessarily- don’t think that you’re missing out on an opportunity of a lifetime to strike it rich. But we are going to discuss how investing in Bitcoin can not only boost your overall returns, but how it can also be a balanced and healthy strategy for investors. We’re joined today by Marko from White Board Finance to have a frank and practical conversation about Bitcoin. Marko was self-taught and started investing in the market at the age of 18. But then after studying finance and working for tech startups and in banking, he launched his YouTube channel which is currently just shy of one million subscribers! He’s an expert of all things personal finance, but we’re mainly going to focus on the future of Bitcoin, the recent events responsible for it blowing up, how much Bitcoin you should own in your portfolio, and much more!

We love real estate! Any long-time listener of the podcast knows that we’re fans of investing in real estate. We both have a handful of rentals and a decent chunk of our financial success is due to those houses! That being said, we also approach the conversation with a degree of reservation because we don’t think it’s for everyone- it’s not nearly the source of passive income like many would lead you to believe. Not to mention we happened to dip our toes in the waters at a historically great period of time. So we’re nuanced, but our guest today is NOT! Here to preach the real estate gospel is Alan Corey who is all-in: he’s a realtor, author of A Million Bucks By 30 as well as House FIRE, which we’ll be discussing today, and of course an investor himself. Alan is a self-proclaimed ‘real estate maximalist’ here in our wonderful city of Atlanta, and we’re going to talk about all things real estate- the current state of the market, why first time home buyers shouldn’t wait, why he doesn’t care about interest rates as an investor, the role of leverage when investing in real estate, if umbrella insurance is enough to mitigate risk, how to think about investing in an Airbnb, vacation rentals, and more!
