Most people believe wealth is just about cash flow or quick returns. But what if the real wealth reveals itself over decades—thanks to principles rooted in faith, societal order, and strategic patience? In this episode, Jimmy busts the myth of the 1% rule and shows how ignoring long-term dynamics is costing high-income investors millions in opportunity cost.Discover why the so-called "dead" 1% rule is just the tip of the iceberg—and how recent market conditions demand a completely different approach. Jimmy dives into the four pillars of wealth—appreciation, leverage, tax advantages, and long-term growth—and explains why cash flow is only a small piece of a much larger puzzle. You’ll learn how taking a patient, strategic view can turn real estate into what he calls "a multidimensional wealth-building machine," especially in inflationary environments.This episode isn’t just for aspiring investors; it’s essential for high-income earners feeling stuck or overwhelmed by market noise.

If you’re tired of analysis paralysis or wasting years waiting for the "perfect" deal, this is the wake-up call you need.Jimmy’s insights challenge the conventional wisdom—and reveal how today’s environment favors those who adapt their criteria, leverage their assets, and understand the unseen long-term benefits. Whether you're a seasoned investor or someone looking to get started, this episode will reshape your understanding of what it truly means to build wealth through real estate.Ready to stop worrying about the irrelevant metrics and start building assets that work for you for decades?

You’re not crazy—It really does feel like some people are pulling ahead faster than ever…While everyone else is stuck in place.That’s not random.It’s the result of a K-shaped economy.On one side:Asset owners. Investors. People using leverage.On the other:Wage earners. Savers. People avoiding debt.And the gap between the two is getting wider.Here’s what most people miss:Since 2020, trillions of dollars have been injected into the economy.That money doesn’t hit evenly.It flows first into assets—real estate, stocks, commodities.So if you own assets?You win.If you rely on income alone?You fall behind… even if you’re earning more than ever.This is exactly what played out during COVID.The people who had access to capital…Who were willing to use debt strategically…Who owned real estate…They didn’t just recover.They accelerated.So how do you actually get ahead?It’s not about quitting your job.It’s not about taking huge risks.It’s about one simple shift:Use your income to acquire assets—and use leverage to do it faster.Because in this environment:→ Inflation works for asset owners→ Leverage multiplies your upside→ Time compounds everythingIn this episode of The Real Estate FastPass Podcast, I break it all down:What a K-shaped economy really meansWhy “playing it safe” is actually risky nowHow inflation quietly transfers wealthWhy real estate is uniquely positioned to benefitAnd how to use leverage without blowing yourself upIf you’ve been feeling like you’re working hard but not getting ahead…This will connect the dots.– JimmyP.S. The system isn’t broken—but it is changing. Once you see how it works, you can use it to your advantage.

Work with Jimmy & the Vreeland Capital Team to build a 20-Unit Portfolio that will get you the equivalent of a retirement account 3X faster with a third of the capital. Visit https://tinyurl.com/mainstreetpatriot... In this episode of The Real Estate Fast Pass, hosts Jimmy Vreeland and Susie Vreeland break down a headline making the rounds in the mortgage world and use it as a springboard to explain what actually moves 30-year mortgage rates. Jimmy unpacks how Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac support lending liquidity through mortgage-backed securities, why mortgage rates tend to track the 10-year Treasury, and what happens when big institutional buyers step in (or step out) of the bond market. From there, they zoom out to the bigger truth: even if rates dip, affordability doesn’t magically fix itself when the real constraint is housing supply—lower rates can just pour gasoline on demand and push prices higher. If you’re trying to build long-term wealth, this conversation will help you tune out the noise, understand the system, and focus on the repeatable move: lock in smart, stable assets, use leverage responsibly, and keep stacking 30-year fixed “boats in the water” while everyone else is chasing headlines.

Visit https://tinyurl.com/mainstreetpatriot... In this episode of The Real Estate Fast Pass, hosts Jimmy Vreeland and Susie Vreeland break down what 2026 really looks like for real estate investors—without the hype, fear, or coastal noise. Drawing directly from insights shared inside the latest Collective Genius meeting, Jimmy unpacks why the market has entered what he calls the Great Stall: a period of steady pricing, persistent housing shortages, and slower—but far more predictable—growth. While headlines focus on interest rates and dramatic market swings, the reality on the ground tells a very different story, especially in Midwest rental markets.Jimmy and Susie explain why new construction sitting on the market doesn’t mean a crash is coming, how a multi-million-unit housing shortage continues to support long-term rental demand, and why the average first-time homebuyer age hitting 40 years old is a massive signal for landlords. They also share why builders are unlikely to solve the inventory problem anytime soon, why tenants are staying longer, and why stable, “boring” deals may offer the clearest path to consistent wealth in 2026 and beyond. If you’re looking to invest with confidence—not headlines—this episode lays out exactly why slow, steady, and repeatable real estate might be the smartest move you can make.

Visit https://tinyurl.com/mainstreetpatriot... In this episode of The Real Estate Fast Pass, hosts Jimmy Vreeland and Susie Vreeland step away from the usual tactical breakdowns to explore how shifting tax policy, inflation, and government money printing are quietly reshaping where capital flows in the U.S. Without debating politics, they focus on what investors actually need to understand: policy changes create real microeconomic consequences, and those consequences directly impact real estate opportunity, competition, and long-term returns.Jimmy and Susie connect the dots between inflation, asset ownership, and wealth preservation—explaining why capital tends to migrate out of high-tax, high-friction environments and into markets where it can move more freely. They break down why owning hard assets matters in an expanding money supply, how being on the sidelines carries more risk than most people realize, and why stable Midwest markets can offer a quieter, more disciplined path to long-term growth than overcrowded “hot” destinations. If you’re a high-income earner feeling squeezed by moving goalposts, this episode will help you think strategically about protecting what you’ve earned and positioning your portfolio for durable, inflation-resistant wealth.

Visit https://tinyurl.com/mainstreetpatriot... In this episode of The Real Estate Fast Pass Podcast, hosts Jimmy Vreeland and Susie Vreeland tackle one of the biggest hurdles for high-income earners who want real estate without a second job: “How do I buy a house I’ve never seen in a city I’ve never visited—and actually sleep at night?” Jimmy and Susie explain why walking a property can sometimes increase anxiety and lead to emotional decision-making, especially for first-time or out-of-state buyers. Instead, they break down the repeatable “boring on purpose” system that protects both your money and your peace of mind—complete with detailed photo documentation, standardized scopes of work, and a clear inspection process focused on the big-ticket mechanics like roof, HVAC, and plumbing.They also reveal how their underwriting builds certainty through a triangulation of value—using internal analysis, third-party appraisal input, and agent insights to determine after-repair value—so buyers aren’t guessing or relying on vibes. You’ll hear how transparency, systems, and proven reps remove decision fatigue, why true wealth comes from rinse-and-repeat execution (not one-off “fun” projects), and how boring Midwest rentals can be the most powerful path to building real, long-term passive wealth. If you want the returns of real estate without the constant attention, this episode will show you how to invest confidently from anywhere.

Visit https://tinyurl.com/mainstreetpatriot...Are you waiting for rates to drop before you invest? Jimmy and Susie break down why that mindset is costing you time—and returns. In this episode of The Real Estate Fast Pass, they unpack the data behind today’s “Great Stall,” a low-inventory, steady market where long-term buy-and-hold investors can quietly build wealth without boom-and-bust chaos. You’ll hear why the obsession with mortgage rates is misleading, how inventory scarcity protects prices, and the math showing that starting now—even at ~8%—can outperform waiting for 5.5%. They walk through appreciation, leverage, and principal paydown (a.k.a. “throwing up your sail”) as the real drivers of returns, plus when refinancing later enhances outcomes. If you’re ready to stop making excuses, start the clock, and invest on your terms, this episode is your green light.

Jimmy and Susie pull back the curtain on the process of transforming dormant home equity into active capital, sharing the real numbers, the strategy, and the mindset that helped them launch their portfolio. They walk listeners through the ins and outs of HELOCs, cash-out refinances, and their signature “Burky” BRRRR method that allows you to recycle the same money over and over again to buy multiple properties. Along the way, they tell the full backstory of the century-old “money pit” house they bought to live in—how six months of sweat equity and creative financing turned that fixer-upper into a launchpad for their entire business.This episode isn’t just about real estate mechanics—it’s about the psychology of wealth building. Jimmy and Susie dive into the difference between a scarcity mindset and an abundance mindset, showing how to move from fear and hesitation to confident action. They explain why velocity of money, not just saving, is the true key to long-term financial growth, and why local credit unions often outperform big banks when it comes to moving fast. You’ll also learn the essential guardrails for using home equity responsibly—when to leverage and when to hold back—so you can protect your assets while accelerating your portfolio growth. If you’ve ever wondered how to make your home work for you instead of sitting on idle equity, this conversation is your roadmap to turn stability into momentum and start building wealth the smart way.---------------------------------Get in touch with Jimmy and his team at www.jimmyvreeland.com/getstartedinrealestateMore about JimmyWebsite: www.jimmyvreeland.comLinkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/jimmy-vreelandInstagram: www.instagram.com/jimmyvreelandFacebook: www.facebook.com/JimmyVreelandYoutube: / @jimmyvreelandc Get free access to the private Ranger Real Estate facebook group: / rremgetwealthyonmainstreet RATE & REVIEW this episode on Apple and Spotify.SHARE this episode with someone.SUBSCRIBE so you don’t miss out on any new episodes!

They break down why Midwest markets—like St. Louis, Little Rock, and Wichita—quietly outperform for long-term investors: saner price-to-rent ratios, steadier appreciation, and fewer boom-bust swings. From TV-driven iBuyer chaos to boots-on-the-ground acquisitions, they show how their team sources, scopes, rehabs, and manages properties so high-income earners can compound wealth without babysitting assets or overpaying for hype.You’ll hear real examples—including why St. Louis only dipped 9% in 2008 while coastal markets cratered—and how “exceptionally mediocre” cities can be exceptionally profitable. Jimmy and Susie share practical guardrails investors can use to protect their portfolios, explaining what price-to-rent really means, which asset classes actually build long-term wealth, and why neighborhoods with a healthy owner-occupant mix create stronger retail exit values. They also unpack how Midwest markets are more resilient and less volatile than coastal boom towns, how lower purchase prices translate to better cash-on-cash returns, and why you don’t need to live near your rentals to invest confidently. Plus, Jimmy breaks down his “Henry Ford” rehab playbook that keeps projects fast, consistent, and resident-first—proving that boring markets can be the foundation of extraordinary portfolios.

In this special crossover episode of The Real Estate Fast Pass Podcast, Jimmy shares a powerful conversation from his guest appearance on The Strength in Numbers Podcast with his longtime CPA and financial strategist, Marcus Crigler. Together, they dive deep into how high-earning real estate professionals can stop getting crushed by taxes and finally build real wealth—without slowing down their active income machine.If you’re a flipper, wholesaler, or agent stacking deals but frustrated by your year-end tax bill, this episode will open your eyes to how the wealthy use bonus depreciation, cost segregation, and smart liquidity planning to keep more of what they earn. Jimmy and Marcus pull back the curtain on how to align your business structure, investments, and tax strategy so your money works twice—first in your business, then again through long-term real estate.Jimmy also shares his own story of owing the IRS $250,000 with no cash to pay—and how Marcus helped him completely change his strategy through bonus depreciation and disciplined liquidity planning. From surviving that crisis to now managing hundreds of rentals across multiple markets, Jimmy breaks down exactly what kind of real estate he’s buying today and why he’s calling BS on the old “1% rule.”This episode is a masterclass in real estate tax strategy, wealth preservation, and portfolio design. Whether you’re already a real estate professional or working to qualify as one, you’ll walk away knowing why it’s worth the effort—and how to legally turn your tax bill into your investment fund.

Together they unpack a hard truth most investors miss: we often overvalue “passive” dollars and undervalue the income we’re already great at earning. Jimmy shares the humbling story of losing $30,000 on a deli while ignoring a six-figure opportunity right under his nose, and Susie pulls back the curtain on the behind-the-scenes chaos of early property management—including the infamous stainless-steel-fridge-versus-French-door saga during pandemic remote learning with four kids on Zoom.This conversation is a wake-up call for anyone who’s ever chased “easy money” or believed freedom meant quitting what you’re already winning at. Jimmy and Susie reveal why the allure of passive income can be misleading, how to avoid distractions that masquerade as opportunities, and what truly builds long-term wealth in real estate. They dive into the real timeline of “passive” investing, why the first 5–10 years are about equity, leverage, and tax advantages—not instant cash flow—and how to leverage a great team so your portfolio grows while you stay focused on your highest-value work.They also explore the mindset shift that separates investors who compound their success from those who stall out chasing shortcuts. Instead of chasing new ventures out of boredom or ego, Jimmy encourages listeners to pursue excellence where they already have momentum. With real stories, hard-earned lessons, and humor from the Vreeland household, this episode reminds us that the “active” dollars you control today might just be your fastest path to true passive wealth tomorrow.

Pulling from research and insights at the Collective Genius Mastermind and financial strategist Jim LaCamp, Jimmy explains why waiting for the “perfect rate” can cost investors years of appreciation, tax benefits, and compounded growth.💡 What You’ll Learn- Why a Fed rate cut doesn’t automatically lower 30-year mortgage rates-The 10-Year Treasury yield is the real north star for mortgage pricing- How inflation fears keep mortgage rates high even when the Fed moves down- Why “average” interest rates today are historically normal—not high- How to think like an investor instead of a headline-reader- The true cost of waiting—and why the best investors marry the house, date the rate About Jimmy VreelandJimmy graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point,spent 5 years as an Army Ranger, and deployed three times twice to Iraqand once to Afghanistan.

Many new investors and business owners are under the misconception that abundant cash flow is easily attainable. The episode highlights the reality that building cash flow takes time and strategic planning, often requiring substantial operational capital.
Real estate can be a powerful tool for wealth creation through various avenues like appreciation and tax benefits, rather than just cash flow. The importance of building equity over time is emphasized as a crucial component of wealth building.
Real estate should be viewed as a long-term investment strategy rather than a quick path to financial freedom. Aspiring real estate investors should have a stable income before heavily investing in real estate.
Small business owners often face cash constraints and need significant operational capital to maintain and grow their businesses, which can delay personal cash flow.

Takeaways
The episode delves into the comparison between single-family and multifamily (syndication) real estate investments, highlighting that it's not a binary choice but one that depends on timing and personal preferences. It encourages investors to understand the wealth pyramid framework and the importance of creating value and productivity as foundational steps.
There are various stages of wealth building using the producer framework, which include pre-launch (acquiring skills), launch (taking action), gravity (implementing systems for cash flow), and orbit (achieving passive income). The discussion emphasizes the significance of timing in choosing between single-family and multifamily investments.
A comprehensive list of pros and cons for both single-family and syndication investments is explored. Single-family investments are praised for maximizing all four pillars and offering a higher learning curve, while syndications are noted for allowing fast capital deployment with less hands-on involvement.
The wealth pyramid framework is introduced as a tool for understanding the hierarchy of financial strategies, from production and insurance to investment real estate and syndications. The episode challenges traditional financial planning by suggesting a more personalized approach to building wealth.

Takeaways
Beginners should not concentrate solely on immediate cash flow in real estate investing. Instead, it's important to have a strong active income source first to effectively leverage real estate for addressing issues like leverage, taxes, and inflation.
Real estate should be viewed as a long-term investment. The benefits of asset appreciation and strategic wealth-building are highlighted as being more significant than quick cash flow, especially for those with substantial active income.
Strategies like cash-out refinancing are discussed as effective ways to build wealth over time. The episode explains how properties can appreciate in value while tenants pay down the mortgage, allowing investors to access equity tax-free.
The importance of adopting a strategic rather than simplistic approach to real estate investing is underscored. Listeners are encouraged to join the Main Street Patriot Get Wealthy on Main Street Facebook group for further insights and to consider building a rental portfolio with expert guidance.

Takeaways
Real estate offers unique depreciation benefits. The IRS allows real estate to be depreciated on paper, which can offset taxable income, creating significant tax savings over time.
Investors are advised to balance their pursuit of tax savings with maintaining liquidity. While reducing taxes is beneficial, it should not come at the cost of financial flexibility.
To maximize tax savings, increasing productivity and wealth accumulation is suggested. It highlights the paradox that to save more on taxes, one must first increase their income and asset base.

Takeaways
For beginners or those looking for an easier entry into real estate, turnkey properties are an excellent option. These homes come rehabbed and tenant-ready, giving you a hassle-free way to start earning income without the complexity of more intensive projects.
Targeting under-rented properties, especially those owned by tired landlords or Section 8 housing, offers the opportunity to acquire properties at a discount and rapidly increase their value through refinancing.
By using the BRRRR strategy—Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat—you can build your real estate portfolio with a minimal upfront investment, allowing for potentially infinite returns by leveraging forced equity.

Takeaways
The wealthy have historically used debt and inflation to their advantage, emphasizing real estate investment as a means to capitalize on currency devaluation.
Inflation is portrayed as a double-edged sword. While it poses risks to fixed-income earners and savers, it also presents opportunities for investors who can strategically leverage debt to acquire assets that appreciate over time.
It is important to invest in assets that outpace inflation and delve into the Federal Reserve's efforts to maintain economic stability without triggering drastic resets.
Explore rental property investments and seek guidance from knowledgeable teams.

We believe that you can reach financial freedom in ten years or less, regardless of your age, income, or experience. This goal is only possible with a sense of awareness, understanding what works, and more importantly, what does not work in the game of money.
With this end in mind, we have created the Cashflow Tactics Documentary, which exposes the lies, the pitfalls, and the ultimate deception in traditional finance.

But do we really need Wall Street? That’s what we will be discussing today.

This episode is a recording from the Rise Up Live 2021 Event, where Ryan shares an insightful story of how he overcame the hardest physical thing he has ever done.
Ryan taught this during an early morning hike, emphasizing that in your journey to financial freedom you are going to wake up some mornings without the desire of getting out of your bed or doing what you have to do.
You may say that it's too cold, it's too wet, it's too dark, etc., but you have to push through that because when you crack the code of getting into momentum, that's when things start to fall in place.
Imagine what you could do if you woke up with a very clear intention, towards a major definite aim.
How would your life be different if you took advantage of your morning, every single morning?

In this episode, Ryan and Jimmy pull back the curtains and dive into the topic of Real Wealth, which is fueled by money but has nothing to do with money. Mastering the topic of Real Wealth is the key to building and living a life that matters today.
It starts by asking, what do we really want? Sure, money is great and all, but what is the motivation behind wanting to attain it. We stumbled on the core principle, prosper, by asking ourselves this question. This focus has become the undercurrent of the CashFlow Tactics community.
Key Takeaways:
- The backstory of the prosper (3:46)
- Joining Russell Brunson’s Inner Circle (8:04)
- The universal regret around money (12:40)

In today’s episode, Ryan talks about the one thing that holds so many back from achieving the success they want in their lives and their financial plans.
That one thing is risk. In the world that we live in today, we are trained, taught, and educated that risk is bad and that we must avoid it at all costs. The reality of this is that it costs us our dreams, our hopes, and our birthrights.
Most people ask themselves, what is the risk if I take that action? What is the risk if this happens? What is the risk if I get sick? What is the risk if I lose my job? What is the risk if markets go down or if inflation goes up?
They’re evaluating the risks and looking at them in the way of “how do I mitigate them or avoid them or run away from them?”. The alternative question is, “what will happen if I don’t take this risk?”.
If you want to build and live a life that matters, it will require you to face risk. Now, we don’t have to do this haphazardly, but we can successfully do it by following four simple steps that will help you thrive inside of risk. Dive in for the full details!
Key Takeaways:
- Introduction (0:00)
- Seeing risk from the right perspective (5:33)
- The first thing to managing risk effectively is making a plan (10:16)
- Eliminating the risk of ruin (14:30)
- Face the risk and do something about it (17:46)
- Create a compelling vision that pulls you into the risk (22:55)

In today’s episode, Ryan meets with the CFT member Armando Zamora, who talks about the path that gave him the freedom to make his own decisions.
Armando has been in the CashFlow Tactics community for three years, has accomplished some amazing things, and has faced some significant challenges along the way.
He discusses how he went from being featured on MSNBC as a 2008 horror story to ultimately dictating the terms of his life with the help of having a Game Plan.
Many people will resonate with Armando’s story because this is the story of an intentional and proactive person with their personal financial strategy for several years. Yet, life presented significant obstacles that made financial freedom look distant.
Armando accelerated his results by using the same proactivity and adding the correct information and approach to his plan. This change is what got him the freedom he wanted.

In today’s episode, Brad and Ryan dive into the tax code.
They are ready to show you the world that exists for those who know how to use the tax code to its fullest strategically.
Financial empowerment comes from getting knowledge. These tactics are not a game that only the wealthy understand how to play. They are hiding in plain sight, and you are very close to discovering them.
The tax code is written as a treasure map to show you the steps that the government has put in place to empower you to pay less (sometimes zero) in taxes by following it.
Learning that you can keep more of what you earn with your hard work and use it to build wealth is definitely an empowering experience.
Yes, your focus should be to increase your income while you keep more of every dollar you make.
Dive in and discover the tax code.

In today’s episode, Jimmy meets Jason Van Camp to discuss the value of being uncomfortable and how that is essential to the Hero's Journey.
The Cashflow Tactics Team is pleased to welcome Jason back to the podcast. He is a former Green Beret, best-selling author, and founder of Mission Six Zero, a leadership consulting company.
In a world where everybody is telling you to seek comfort and take the easy path, Jason tells people to do the exact opposite: seek discomfort.
It's a counterintuitive approach. We're conditioned to choose comfort but taking the road less traveled, being vulnerable, daring to do something, or doing something that scares you is what brings you to success.
Most of the time, breaking something and building it all over is what it takes to improve it. That’s why for us humans, there is no growth in the comfort zone. We have to choose hard things, or hard things will choose us, you know, it's going to happen either way. We just have to be proactive about it.
Key Takeaways:
- Introduction (0:00)
- A counterintuitive idea that works so well (3:20)

In this episode, Ryan shares the three tactics that will transform your investment strategy (especially if you're just starting).
Since we are young, we learn to play “safe.” We are encouraged to pursue things like getting a stable job with benefits and a 401k plan so we can retire at 65.
The truth is that this safe approach is very unsafe. For example, a 401k is nothing but putting money in with the expectation of appreciation and a future resale.
You put your money into an account. You buy a share of stock or a mutual fund, and you're hoping that those stocks will appreciate and that you can resell at a higher value. Now, here's the question that you have to ask yourself, do you have any control over that outcome? Is that safe?
The reality is that what we are taught to do isn't working. To help you do better, Ryan shares the three things he's learned over the years that now sit at the center of his investment strategy.

Key Takeaways:
- Introduction (0:00)
- What mainstream practices should we question? (4:24)
- Pay yourself first (9:03)

In this episode, Brad and Jimmy dive deep into their belief of why there is a coming market sell-off.
We don't think this is a surprise to any of our listeners. Trillions of dollars have been printed recently, and those dollars have to go somewhere. One of the biggest places that they have gone is to the market.
Firstly, we will discuss our analysis, not the CNN talking-head analysis of “The market is up. Everything is good. You should buy more”. We want you to understand what's driving the misallocations in the market.
Then, as always, we will bring you some actionable solutions for keeping yourself safe and protected from those misallocations and how the core four pillars apply to building financial freedom.
Remember that we don’t spend our time trying to find you a hundred different ways to make money, but help you pick two or three that have worked for the last two hundred years so they can work for you.
Key Takeaways:
- Introduction (0:00)
- The “agency” disclaimer (4:46)
- Don’t listen to people who aren’t practitioners (9:02)
- Why do we even invest? (17:55)
- Here's why I don't think real estate is overvalued (26:18)

In today’s episode, Jimmy meets Brian Underhill to discuss why tackling goals with 90-day targets is so effective.
Brian is a business consultant the Cashflow Tactics founders use for all of their businesses.
Vreeland Capital, Altitude Wealth, and Cashflow Tactics run on the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), and 90-day targets drive EOS. This system is similar to working out. You won’t be successful if you are not disciplined and consistent. We all know it.
However, seeing the picture of your ideal body when you are out of shape can be more disappointing than motivating. Breaking down your deepest goals into predictable and digestible chunks while holding yourself accountable can change everything.
Don’t rely on luck or “time” to make things happen. Set targets and hit them. Once you get started and see how progress is more accessible (even enjoyable), you’ll become addicted to it.

In today’s episode, Jimmy has a pleasant conversation with Robert Allen on his favorite subject: financial freedom.
Robert started his journey investing in real estate right after college, and a few years later, he was already a millionaire.
A little later, he wrote his first book, and when he started teaching others what helped him achieve financial freedom, Robert knew he had found his purpose in life.
After that, he has helped people improve their lives and created millionaires worldwide for the last forty years. For him, it's so fulfilling, and he loves to do it.
Today, he talks about the importance of skill sets, mindsets, and networks. Robert emphasizes the importance of mentors to minimize time and resources loss and invites every listener to question why they are here on this planet and to find their purpose.

In today’s episode, Ryan is going to share with you one of the most powerful drivers of successful people inside of the CFT community.
Even though gratitude is one of the most often overlooked success tools, it is your most effective tool for massive growth and progress.
When you are grateful, you recognize and realize what you have.
You are humble, but you are also hungry. As a human being, you realize that you have limitations but also an unlimited capacity to grow.
You have unlimited capacity and potential inside of you, so when you permit yourself to be humble, recognize those limitations, and be hungry simultaneously, your life starts to evolve and transform because of the humility you have.
Convert the knowledge into wisdom by taking action inside of your life.
Dive in for the full details. We know you’ll love it.

In today’s episode, Ryan and Brad will help you understand what being an entrepreneur is.
Being an entrepreneur is not what the internet tells you, and it's not what most people think of when they hear the word “entrepreneur”.
Once you understand that successful entrepreneurs play the long-term game, it will make you more comfortable and confident of getting into the game.
You will realize it’s not the Wild Wild West. Entrepreneurship is a very strategic game of building your reserves, building your foundation, building your certainty, and then going out and thriving, thriving in the uncertainty.
And once you make the mental shift in approaching your life and your investment with an entrepreneurial mindset, your entire life will change. Rather than hoping for retirement someday, you can begin creating financial freedom today.

In today’s episode, Ryan discusses the biggest lie about financial freedom and shares useful tactics to overcome it.
There are lots of ways to get passive income, however, the biggest lie in the world of "Financial Freedom" is that it will be easy.

That really attracts a lot of people to the space of financial freedom. But the reality of it is that's not the truth. That's not what really happens.
The truth behind Financial Freedom is that it is only possible when you realize that the path will require sacrifice, growth, and ultimately facing your fears.

In today’s episode, Jimmy, the largest buyer of single-family real estate in St. Louis, talks with Brad about the history of the Moratorium.
Right now, social media channels are full of people that are trying to “make a point” about the Moratorium and what it means to real estate. The truth is, it is all from a theoretical perspective because these people don’t have any investing experience.

In this episode, Jimmy interviews his mastermind friend and experienced investor, Dave Payerchin. Dave is buying every property he can right now, and here he explains why you should too.
Jimmy and Dave met in the Collective Genius mastermind four years ago and have been friends ever since. Dave is an experienced investor, wholesaler, flipper, and landlord.
Right now, everybody is fighting for more money to be printed, which actually just hurts all of us at the end of the day. That is why you need to own assets, as a great way to hedge against inflation. Inflation is basically just inflating the money supply and prices are going up.
The best way to protect yourself and take advantage of the situation is to use low-interest, long-term debt to buy and hold as many assets as you possibly can.
In this interview, Dave Payerchin explains why he’s buying everything he can and encourages listeners to start buying as well.
Key Takeaways:
- Introduction (0:00)

In this episode, we dive into Dr. Sonja Stribling’s remarkable story of success despite the odds.
We discuss how she was able to build a life of passion and success by changing her mindset and then her associations.
If you didn't come from a wealthy family, let a wealthy family come from you.
Wealth is just not the monetization of everything. It's just not money. It is more of a wealthy mindset, wealthy relationships, and a balanced, fulfillment-focused lifestyle.
People think it's just the money, but it's not. It has a lot to do with mindset.
And if that freedom and fulfilling life is not something that you're focused on, you're probably focusing on the wrong thing, and you're not going to get to the level of success that you really deserve.
Is it really possible to have it all? In this interview, we will examine how to make the impossible become possible and even inevitable.
Key Takeaways:
- Introduction (0:00)

In today's episode, we dive into the Macdonald's Game Plan progress over the last two years.
Ryan and Cassie Macdonald have a remarkable story of hearing a message, gaining clarity, and taking massive action toward their dreams.
Most people don't know what they want. They start with this vague idea of “one day, I'll retire.” The Macdonald’s spent a lot of time working on what they wanted and why it mattered. Then it was a lot easier to go back to their money and say, “let's start using money to get what we want.” And it worked. It paid off way better than the standard path of living going through the motions while crossing our fingers, hoping it will all work out one day.
By taking intentional and straightforward steps, like paying themselves first and saving 10% of their income, Ryan and Cassie upgraded their personal life while also upgrading their investment life massively and eventually becoming different people. They are a living testimony that simple things done consistently are what get you actual results.

In this episode, Brad and Jimmy talk through how to "catch the edge" between order and chaos inside your game plan.
Even though modern investment gurus will try to sell you into “Financial Freedom in 90 days or less”, the Team at Cashflow Tactics knows that everything that is worth it takes time.
The approach that the Cashflow Tactics programs follow is simple, but not easy. The owners and coaches have high enough integrity to not pretend financial freedom will happen with a snap of your fingers, and that all of your problems are going to go away.
They are going to make you do the work. They are going to make you understand the concepts, and by following an action-based approach they will help you conquer one of the toughest challenges when it comes to dealing with new things: overcoming excessive analysis and procrastination.
Most people achieve freedom when they retire, after 40 years of hard work and saying no to some of the best things in life.
You may be able to do it in ten years or less if you dare to take the chance.

In this episode, Jimmy and Brad talk about how to catch the edge between an ideal or a compelling vision and execution.
They build on the concepts taught in a previous episode, “True Freedom is The Freedom to Pursue Excellence”, and teach how to avoid the trap of measuring against an ideal and how it is a key to success in your path to financial freedom in 10 years or less.
We search for freedom to pursue excellence. We do it to make things better and not to live some hedonistic and selfish existence. No, pursuing excellence does not mean be pursuing some ideal, and then measuring against that ideal just to feel miserable and short when that ideal is not reached.
The media and social networks have amplified these fallacies among many sincere people seeking financial freedom, so the Cashflow Tactics team wanted to speak up.

In this episode, Ryan joins Eric McGuire, Head Tactical Wealth Strategist at Cashflow Tactics to discuss the top questions asked about the VAULT financial strategy.
The VAULT is part of the path to financial freedom, the path to ultimately stabilizing abundance in a person's life, and creating the freedom and the space to go out and make moves inside of real estate and cash flow.
However, this is a very unique concept. It's even a new concept for most people when they get into the Cashflow Tactics community. So as you can imagine, even though they describe it on webinars and similar training, inevitably, there are always questions around the VAULT.
Eric has been in this game for several years, and he’s the perfect man to guide you through it. So this episode, it's gonna be exclusively around answering those questions specifically: what the VAULT is, why we use it, and why it's a tool that's relevant to someone's path to financial freedom.

In this episode, Brad and Jimmy analyze the unrealistic expectations that many people associate with financial freedom, as well as the importance of pursuing excellence once that the money constraint has been removed.
Most people understand that, by definition, financial freedom is achieved when your cash flow is bigger than your expenses. However, it does not mean all constraints or problems, or difficulties are gone.
When pursuing financial freedom, we're not in pursuit of the elimination of all constraints. It’s the fact that we can choose the constraints that will lead to us being able to pursue excellence. When we have control of our finances, we can now choose what those constraints are, and put ourselves in a position to grow, rather than then be pushed around by anybody else to do that.
Too many times, people have the unrealistic expectation that financial freedom brings a life of ease. At Cashflow Tactics, our goal is to remove the constraint of money so that you can pursue excellence, but that path will still require you to grow.
Financial freedom is a challenge to grow in the way that you're able to deem what's best for you, in a way that allows you to pursue freedom.

In this episode, Ryan and Brad discuss why one of the riskiest things you can do is tie all of your income to one source that you do not have any control over.
They go deep into why everyone should have a side hustle to earn more money and experiment with other expressions of creating value. Even though the concept of “side hustling” has become more popular in the last few years, the majority of people will tell you that finding a good, stable job, working hard for promotions, and continuing your education on the side is the most reliable path to financial fitness. They will say that you can even go one step further and complement this plan with investing in the stock market.
Sounds good, isn’t it? It seems they have it all figured out. Then these questions come in: what about financial freedom? What about unexpected things that could disrupt your plan? If you lost your job today, how fast would you be able to find a job that pays you the same?
Would you be able to make the transition without running out of funds? And very importantly, how easy would it be to transfer your knowledge and skills if you have already invested years in the company that employed you?

In this episode, Ryan & Brad dive into the philosophy of investing in the market as a method of achieving your financial goals.
They discuss why the market was created, who's actually getting wealthy, and why now is likely the worst time to be putting money into the market.
The methods that they are going to be talking about here may be considered risky, but we are sure that you will think that twice after the Cashflow Tactics guys expose the risk inside of what is considered the conventional, normal, and most successful investment path.
The average individual trades a lot of days, months, and years of their life with the intention of being able to own their time to be able to spend time with their spouse, kids, and grandkids, and do some of the things that they weren't able to do during your working years.
Yet, the conventional path is not designed to treat individuals fairly. We invite you to know things that could give you the control and power to materialize your goals.

In this episode, Brad and Jimmy close the Inflation Training with a flourish, by sharing a step-by-step guide on how inflation can make you rich faster.
They wrap up the financial lessons taught by 300 years of North American history to prove that 97% of people teaching you about inflation are just teaching you how to play “prevent defense”, and not telling you how to use it to become wealthy.
Brad and Jimmy even build upon the words of a modern magnate like Warren Buffet to prove that this is not something they tried a couple of times and worked. These are invaluable tactics hiding in plain sight.

If you have ever wanted to understand inflation and how to use it in your favor, this is your best chance.

He and Les couldn’t sleep at night if they’re going to be worried about their financial future. That’s why they set out to identify the principles of economic certainty.

In this episode, Jimmy and Ryan talk about the 3 principles of value exchange that can help you make money and achieve financial freedom.
Some think that having resources is the most important thing you need if you want to be free financially. But as Jen and Craig Anderson showed us, you can come into the game in debt, pay it off, and start working your way to financial freedom in less than a year.
However, to achieve that, you need to have principles.
The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines the word principle as “a general or basic truth on which other truths or theories can be based.”
A principle is something that’s been true in the past, that’s still true now, and that will be true in the future. If you manage to align your life with fundamental truths, it will become more predictable and in turn, way easier.
Today, Jimmy and Ryan talk about the 3 principles of value exchange, what they are, and why you need to follow them.
Key Takeaways

- Win-win value proposition and a win-lose value proposition (03:21)

Brad and Ryan talk to one of CashFlow Tactics originals, Scott Everhart, about how he went from nothing to $17,000 a month in 7 short years.
A lot of things can happen in seven years. You can finish your education. Get a job. Marry. Have a child. Oh, and you can come up with a Game Plan, implement it, and become financially free. That’s what Scott Everhart did.
We met Scott way back in 2015. Even before that, he was an extremely hard-working individual. By corporate standards, he was a success.
Scott had some money. He had a sizable amount of assets. And he had a 401(k). But he wanted something different. Something more. That’s when he came across the Vault. And, the Vault led him to us. We’ve been working together ever since.
He quickly devised his Game Plan. Seven years later, Scott’s Vault is fully financed and he’s making $17,000 per month. How did he manage to do all of this in such a short amount of time?
From his real estate investments to how he achieved financial freedom in just 7 years, we discuss everything.

Brad and Jimmy talk about the coming inflation, how to prepare for it, and how can you GET WEALTHY from it.
America hasn’t seen significant inflation in decades at this point. However, that may change very soon. In the next 12 months, we’ll probably see prices jump across several sectors.
You can expect ordinary items like food, water, and cleaning products, to go up in price. Also, luxuries like plane tickets, hotel rooms, and car rental rates are expected to go back to their pre-pandemic prices. Naturally, inflation will affect your game plan.
But in what way?
For most people, this is the time to start playing preventive defense, concentrating on dangers that – if mismanaged – have the potential to grow into real threats.
Is this the time to protect your money simply out of fear of losing it all because of inflation? Absolutely not. You can’t play not to lose, you have to play to win.
Listen to our episode to find out the best way to create wealth in an inflationary environment.

You should invest in your company-sponsored 401k. Right? Wrong! The greatest risk to your retirement might just be the tool you are using to save. And if you’re thinking an IRA is better, nope. These traditional retirement vehicles are essentially the same, and in this episode, you will see why.
The government tells you to invest in 401k. They offer tax breaks after all! On the other side, your financial advisor will tell you to open up an IRA account. Is that really better? We don’t think so!
The fact is, neither the government nor your financial advisor has your best interests in mind. They might not be malicious, but they’re not giving you ALL the information.
We believe that financial freedom comes from financial knowledge. So, we want to ask you: Do you know the tax ramifications of these accounts? Do you know the special rules attached to them? And are you aware of all of the fees?
Get ready, because in this episode we will bust some well-established retirement myths and set you on a path to financial freedom!

Jimmy and Ryan discuss the differences between unmet expectations and losses. Some people quit after their first loss, while others find other earning opportunities after.
A lot of people get into the game of real estate investing and financial planning with the expectations of getting a consistent year-over-year return. Most people start thinking about making new investments with the money they’ll earn from those returns.
When this doesn’t happen, and the investment falls through, people start panicking.

While the world is desperately clinging to the average, in CashFlow Tactics we will show you the path to RISE UP and escape the CULT of the average.
The average American makes $48,500 a year, has never directly owned stocks in their life, and lives in a household that’s over $145,000 in debt. And while this IS average, does that mean you have to settle for it?
When you go to a financial advisor and ask them to come with a plan for you, chances are, they won’t create one with your best interests in mind. They’ll create a plan based on average life expectancy, income, tax bracket, and market return.
An average plan yields average results. There’s no other way around it. To achieve financial freedom, you need a plan that caters to your personality, situation, and needs. You need a plan that allows you to rise up.
If you’re looking for a way to escape the Cult of the Average, this week’s episode is just what you need.

That’s when they discovered the Cash Flow Tactics community. After a few months, they prepared their Game Plan. By the end of 2020, they wound up paying all of their debt and fixed up their mortgage.
Listen to their story and find out how they managed to accomplish so much in such a short amount of time.

You go to school. Get a job. Put money into a 401(k). Save enough money by 60. Retire. For a vast majority of people, that’s the way the game works.
Your parents say that this is what you should do. Your employer definitely thinks so too. Even the government says that this is a good idea.
But is putting all of your chips on a 401(k)a safe bet?
Then why would the guy who invented it – the late John C. Bogle – think that it was the worst thing he’s ever issued? Simply because it doesn’t work.
Find out why sacrificing 40 years of your life only for Wall Street and the government to squeeze a huge chunk out of your retirement fund isn’t worth it. Learn that and much more in our Big Squeeze episode.

The Financial Freedom Formula is the toolbox of all toolboxes. In this episode, Brad and Ryan talk about the two financial tools that pass the 4 core and 4 pillars test: the vault and yourself.
The IRS uses the tax code to incentivize behavior. They then give you goldfish-type advice to keep you in debt, have you slaving away the best years of your life, waiting for that mythical creature we know retirement. But the people who are in the know have been using a certain tool to eliminate taxes.
You’ve read that right. Not to defer taxes, not to pay a small amount, but to eliminate them. This tool is known as the vault.
Just like real estate, it passes the 4 core the 4 pillars test. People like Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, and Joe Biden have been using it to grow their capital, 100% tax-free.
But you need money to invest in the vault to make a profit. What’s the best way to put a good amount in the vault every year? By investing of course. What’s the best investment besides real estate? It’s you, of course. You need to start investing in yourself.

Today we celebrate our 100th podcast episode by interviewing Ryan Michler, who runs the Order Of Man podcast. We discuss sovereignty, what stands in the way of you being free, and why freedom is the most important thing you can achieve inside of your life.
What often holds us back from a life of freedom is fear. But how do we combat something that can have such a tight grip on our lives? We asked Ryan how he manages to live fearlessly and how others in our community can do the same.
That led us to discuss how to find the things we’re passionate about in life. Sometimes, those passions aren’t always obvious, making it that much more important to accept that it will take trial and error to get where we want to go.
And finally, we discuss how to get out of a rut and even why a rut isn’t an inherently negative thing. Be sure to tune in to our enlightening conversation!

Retirement is the worst idea.
In this episode, Brad, Ryan, and Jimmy discuss why CashFlow Tactics started. CashFlow Tactics is not about doing traditional things better, it's about learning the frameworks, principles, and formulas necessary to start rising up and living free now.

And at CashFlow Tactics, we aim to help you claim your power and take part in a path where YOU are the one holding the map.

This is possibly the most important question you will ever ask yourself…
If you dare to actually do so.
In this week’s episode, Jimmy and Brad are discussing why this question can be so challenging to answer. They cover why 97% of what we are taught undermines our ability to get what we want and steps you can take to get CLEAR on what you truly want. It is the crucial element fueling your path to financial freedom.
There are so many filters in life that keep us from figuring out what we actually want. We often get self-conscious about our desires because we think we’re selfish. But the truth is, your “selfish desire” is just authenticity. And authenticity is required for being content and fulfilled in life.
Key Takeaways:
- What filters you from figuring out what you actually want (02:00)
- How Jimmy and Brad react when they aren’t aligning with what they want (06:50)
- How Jimmy determines if someone is being authentic or not (10:00)

Today Ryan and Jimmy will be talking about simple success principles, long-term results, and what the "Lindy Effect" has to do with your Financial Freedom.
The Lindy effect is this theory that a future life expectancy of some nonperishable thing like a technology or an idea is proportional to their current age. Essentially, every additional period of survival implies a longer life expectancy.
So how does this apply to your financial freedom journey?
We tend to look at the things we purchase as depreciating over time. But when it comes to investments, we must look at the principles and ideologies behind those tangible purchases. If you want to have continual and consistent results, then it's essential to base your gameplan on a foundation that stands the test in time.
Tune into this week's episode to learn how to ensure your financial freedom plan is doing just that!
Key Takeaways:
- What the Lindy Effect is (04:20)
- How long the concept of running a business has been around (07:30)

In this episode, Jimmy called Brad up after listening to the bonus podcast episode about Trump's tax return, and it got him...heated!
They discussed why they feel an obligation to caution the Cashflow Tactics to remain skeptical and vigilant whenever consuming content from those they consider IYI (Intellectual yet idiots). It's important to first always look at what drives the information, the source of that information, and the angle they're trying to take. This is so important because it's how you filter the credible from the not so credible.
Brad and Jimmy also talk about why it's important to be open to mentorship and how openness is a determiner of where you are in your growth journey. Tune in to hear the HULK Jimmy rant about the IYI and how Envy is tearing down the news, media, finance, politics, and ultimately this great country we live in.

In this episode, Brad and Jimmy discuss the core focus of CashFlow Tactics. They hope that this episode will put into context why the CashFlow tactics approach to money and finance is vastly different from what traditional financial advisors provide.
The core focus is comprised of two pieces. It is the movement and the niche. The movement is to inspire individuals to Rise Up and Live Free by leading them on a path to financial freedom. We accomplish that by educating, coaching, and implementing a personalized game plan.
A core focus keeps you from chasing squirrels and ensures you stay on track to meet your goals.
Key Takeaways:

In this episode, Brad gets asked nine critical questions about money and finances by Kathryn Jones. Kathryn hosts 9@9, where she asks entrepreneurs nine questions in 9 minutes. It was a great time on her show, and we wanted to share that conversation with you all.
The big takeaway here is that if you are an entrepreneur, then you HAVE to do things differently. The traditional system is broken. The game of money that is traditionally taught to the rest of the world does not apply to you. You don’t subscribe to the rules of a paycheck every two weeks, so you must adapt and adjust if you want to see results.
And if you’re not an entrepreneur, then these rules still apply. The path to wealth means thinking entrepreneurially. It requires the same skillset, whether you’re a W-2 worker or own your business. Your approach will be different depending on where you start. The order of operations varies, but the tactics and results are the same.
Key Takeaways:
- Why entrepreneurs need to think differently (1:59)
- Biggest mistake entrepreneurs make (4:59)
- How should an entrepreneur approach money opposed to a non entrepreneur? (6:30)
- How to approach investing back into your business (7:41)
- YOU can make money (10:10)
- What does winning look like in money? (11:27)
- You need to decide to raise your financial IQ (13:29)
- What financial freedom means for Brad (15:49)

In this episode, Brad and Jimmy debunk the well known saying, "Money is the root of all evil," and describe why "something from nothing" is really the root of all evil.
You've undoubtedly heard it before. That the pursuit of money is an immoral endeavor. Maybe you've wrestled with those thoughts before or even hold them now. Brad and Jimmy have spent time examining the roots of this belief and have concluded that true evil is the attempt at cutting corners.
Today's topic is a concept that is fundamentally misunderstood. And that misconception will most likely keep you from accomplishing what you want. If you are holding on to the belief that building wealth is an inherent evil, you won't do a good job. Join us today as we examine the mindset that holds you back from living the life you've been dreaming of.
Key Takeaways:
- The importance of what we’re doing is not the destination but the process(3:32)
- What happens when we take shortcuts (4:42)
- The moment we realized that money isn’t the root of all evil (8:20)
- How a producer views someone creating value(18:25)

In this episode, Jimmy and Brad revisit the concepts inside the book Antifragile. They take a deep dive into practical applications, how they relate to The Wealth Pyramid, and why orders of operations matter while building wealth.
When it comes to wealth building, it is important to consider the order in which you do things. Look at it like this; it doesn’t make sense to water the ground if you haven’t planted seeds. What matters is the route taken, not just the destination. If something is fragile, its risk of breaking makes any work you do a waste of time until you reduce its fragility.
Tune in as Jimmy and Brad explain what you can do to optimize your order of operations and how to diminish fragility systematically.
Key Takeaways:
- The order we move in matters (3:13)
- First step in antifragility (6:30)
- Step one explained (10:42)
- First level of the pyramid (14:11)
- You can’t lead what you don’t live (17:53)
- What to do if you’re not a billionaire (19:30)

In this episode of the Rise Up and Live Free podcast, Brad, Ryan, and Jimmy are discussing why you can’t become financially free without a plan. Success is born from a great strategy. We like to call this strategy a framework.
Many people rely on becoming accidentally wealthy. They think they have a plan but when it comes down to it, they aren’t able to systematically describe their path to wealth. At CashFlow Tactics, we find fault with the idea that the best plans are a wait and see approach. We want to be active and hands-on with our mission to financial freedom.
Whether you have enough money or not is not a signifier of freedom. A framework you understand is what leads to your freedom. The core of what we do is financial empowerment. That is the essence of this entire episode. When you have the principles, the tactics become easy. By using the "Wealth Pyramid" framework, you will have the clearest path to financial freedom in ten years or less.
Key Takeaways:
- Frameworks are essential (2:29)
- What we’re covering today (6:56)
- Your trading your time for money (9:22)
- Three areas of the pyramid (12:47)
- Next step after making money (15:43)
- Areas of protection (20:05)
- What freedom gives you (25:13)
- Expanding on the pyramid (30:55)
- How to connect the dots (35:04)

Welcome back to another episode of the Rise Up and Live Free podcast. In this episode, Chas Wilson and Ryan review the power of connection. Chas is the founder of a networking and entrepreneurial leadership company called Master Networks. The company's central focus is about investing in yourself as well as others.
Connection doesn't just improve your financial game plan. It enhances every area of your life. Take a moment to analyze the top experiences in your life. Often, they are centered around relationships. With this in mind, you might begin to wonder why you aren't spending more time investing in those relationships.
We tend to get so caught up in the rat race. What's the next thing we can do or achieve rather than what relationship can we strengthen next. The reality is, people are at the center of our next step forward. Without those strong bonds in place, we can't move in the direction that we want to.
Networking can be tricky, but it is a necessary skill to have in your toolbox. Today, we're diving into the best ways to incorporate networking into your life. No matter where you're at today, you are just one connection away from the next opportunity in your life.
Key Takeaways:
- Chas’ company (1:52)
- Your top three experiences (5:08)
- The reputation of networking (7:16)
- How Ryan changed his opinion on networking (10:03)
- A network insulates (12:51)
- Chas’ method (19:46)
- Lean on your network during challenging times (27:34)
- Expectations vs. agreements (33:53)

In this episode, Ryan and Jimmy pull back the curtains and dive into the topic of Real Wealth, which is fueled by money but has nothing to do with money. Mastering the topic of Real Wealth is the key to building and living a life that matters today.
It starts by asking, what do we really want? Sure, money is great and all, but what is the motivation behind wanting to attain it. We stumbled on the core principle, prosper, by asking ourselves this question. This focus has become the undercurrent of the CashFlow Tactics community.
Key Takeaways:
- The backstory of prosper (3:46)
- Joining Russell Brunson’s Inner Circle (8:04)
- The universal regret around money (12:40)
- Time is not the currency (16:03)
- Investing in your wellbeing (20:15)
- Result of removing financial pain (24:25)

He is an influential advisor who has found incredible financial success through his innovative investment strategies. Robert Allen teaches more than just real estate. His work includes breaking down the beliefs and mindsets we carry around money. His goal is to inform readers on how to adopt a wealthy mindset to create the wealth they desire.
Robert Allen’s ideas have been essential to the development of CashFlow Tactics. He finished where Robert Kiyosaki left off in Rich Dad Poor Dad.

Brad, Ryan, and Jimmy have utilized his advice and applied it to their own financial situations with great success. Today, they share all that they’ve learned and how it can take your game plan to the next level.

Today we’re back with part two of our conversation about turning business cashflow into personal cashflow. In this episode, Brad explains how to take control of your personal wealth. If you’re a business owner, you’ve probably had times where you’ve personally taken home very little money.
We believe that most people who’ve experienced this in their own business have allowed that to happen. Letting money solve all of your problems is a specific type of laziness. And it’s keeping you from building the wealth you desire.
The truth is, if you are not getting paid a lot in your business, it will not grow. We like to call that take home King’s Cash, and today we’re telling you how to make it a part of your reality.
Key Takeaways:
- Take control of your personal wealth (2:16)
- Truth about getting paid in your business (5:22)
- Identity shift as an entrepreneur (7:13)
- What you need to know about the tax code (10:29)
- Four things that will destroy your king’s cash (11:56)
- Do you want more money or more time? (15:51)

Today we have a very special edition of the Rise Up & Live Free podcast. In this episode, Brad will be covering the principles. He is definitely the guy for the job. Brad has studied economics, accounting, and statistics and spent time on wall streets, taken companies public, and managed hedge funds.
Brad is the renaissance man of money, and well, he loves it! We say this with boldness because it’s not coming from a place of egocentrism. What he really loves is what money represents for him and the life it allows him to build. We’re taking this episode to explain why you should understand and love money so that you can make the investments that truly matter.
The reality is, investing is easy as long as you know the principles. You have to first realize that you are not your business. This episode is not going to cover the specific tactics that you should do.
Why?
Because tactics can be dangerous if you don’t understand the principles. Once you have those down the tactics become incredibly clear. Our goal is to help you increase your financial IQ and become empowered around the conversation of money.
Key Takeaways:
- What money means to Brad (2:32)
- Principles are God’s automation (5:47)

We make a lot of bold claims. And today we’re taking it a step further than we ever have before. We’re talking about our belief that all financial advice can be dangerous and misleading, including ours!
You probably know that Brad, Ryan, and Jimmy caution against listening to what they call Goldfish advisors, but the truth of the matter is you have to be careful about all the advice you might be getting.
Why is that?
Well, the truth is, nothing moves in a straight line. It doesn’t matter how good a spreadsheet is or how well a particular method worked for someone else. Advice can only be offered from an individual’s vantage point. Just because it worked for us does not guarantee it will work for you in the same way.
So what should you do instead?
We’re not saying you shouldn’t seek out financial counsel, but we are saying that you are the driver of your success at the end of the day. We aim to help you become financially empowered. The advice we give always starts and ends with you being the producer. That means rising up and taking your financial future into your own hands.
Are you ready?
Key Takeaways:
- Why you shouldn’t take our advice (2:05)
- Difference between financial advice and financial empowerment (4:21)
- Two primary things to focus on when it comes to money (6:30)
- The realization that you can’t duplicate someone else’s results (8:56)
- Learning marketing in a way we never have before (13:02)
- Owning our intellectual assets (15:08)
- Examine the results you’re following (18:34)
- Refining our message throughout the years (21:51)
- We require action (24:33)

Sometimes you need permission to just go for it. This is it. Go for it!
Today's guest, Ellen Yin is such a powerhouse. She is a successful entrepreneur and business owner with a whole lot of wisdom to boot. Her focus is to help entrepreneurs go from nothing to their first $10,000 month. Ellen's experience offers a great learning opportunity for you to rise up and take control of your income.
If you have a clear vision of what you want your life to look like, and you realize where you are is not it, permit yourself to change that. Something big doesn't have to initiate the change. Average is the enemy; you were made for so much more than average. Money is a tool that gives you options. Lean into curiosity and set aside your ego. Do things you've never done before. Do one small thing at a time, and don't let the skill-sets you have now prevent you from starting today.

- Ellen Yin commits to paying off student loans in one year (4:28)

The biggest name on the block is the Roth 401(k) when it comes to retirement accounts. Most people consider it essential to growing your nest egg and the only secure option for those looking to make long term investments.
Within the Cash Flow Tactics community, we argue against this methodology. We believe a 401(k) will never make business owners or anyone financially free. These vehicles keep you trapped in the broken retirement system, hoping and praying that things work out. Brad and Jimmy break down why this investing strategy violates the Core Four and Four Pillars and show you that the only path to becoming financially free in 10 years or less starts and ends with you!
Key Takeaways:
- Who created pensions? (3:16)
- Why a pension is a long term liability(4:39)

If you’ve listened to one of our earlier episodes then you may be familiar with the Core Four. The Core Four is the first step in the Financial Freedom Formula and empowers you to take control of your finances and stay focused on the 3% of assets that produce the results you need to achieve Financial Freedom in 10 years or less.
We consider it to be the first wealth lens you need to look through to gain an accurate understanding of your game plan when moving forward. It is meant to help you stay laser-focused on the few investments that are actually going to move the needle.
At Cashflow Tactics, we are all about helping you realize that you are your greatest investment. Once you rise up, create value, and invest in your mindset and skillset the natural next step is to wonder where to put your money.
Most people fall back on traditional advice offered by Goldfish Advisors. We believe that the majority of that advice is dangerous and misleading. So where do you go from there? You do the exact opposite of what everyone else is doing and instead, stay focused on the goal of becoming free in ten years or less. And you do that through utilizing the Core Four formula.
Key Takeaways:
- What the Core Four is meant to do (2:18)
- How to stay focused on the 3% (3:43)

Ever heard of leveraged income? When it comes to financial freedom the buzz words we hear all the time is passive income. It sounds like the golden ticket we’ve all been looking for. Who wouldn’t want the opportunity to earn money while they sleep?
The reality is that there is just no such thing as total passive income. The belief that you can achieve financial freedom while just sitting back and watching it happen is a dangerous lie. The more you buy into it the further you keep yourself from accomplishing actual economic independence.
So what does it take to actually reach your goals? How do you live a life on your own terms? Stay tuned for this week’s episode as Ryan and Jimmy go through why there is no such thing as passive income, but there is such a thing as leveraged income. Leveraged income is how you become financially free.
Key Takeaways:
- Ryan’s CG Story (7:46)
- The reality of passive income (11:43)
- We appreciate what we earn (13:34)

Mapping your path to financial freedom is an exhilarating and exciting discovery. We know firsthand how motivating it is to have set targets and an achievable gameplan. But we always like to give a word of caution to those new to the journey.
One big misconception that we see over and over again is the belief that once you accomplish X goal or Y goal then life will be perfect. A lot of people naively believe that once they learn the fundamentals and get on track that the road ahead will be smooth sailing. Let us spill a secret. It won’t be.
The path to financial freedom is possible but it is not a straight path. Sometimes in the moments when you feel most on-point, a hurdle will crop up that you’ll need to maneuver around. But it’s important to remember that life happens for you, not to you! CashFlow tactics will help you with the path but you must become the person capable and willing to walk it.
Key Takeaways:
- Common misconceptions we see again and again (2:29)
- The hero’s journey (5:15)
- What happens in the abyss (7:43)

The number one question that Brad, Ryan, and Jimmy get asked is the topic of this week’s episode. We’re discussing cash flow. Essentially, how can we become financially free? When coming up with a financial plan, there are a number of things that have to be evaluated. Oftentimes there are a series of misconceptions revolving around financial independence and to get on the right track those misunderstandings have to be cleared up.
There is one important question that we address and help people to reframe. We ask them what they are trying to accomplish. Usually people mention wanting to increase their rate of return. This isn’t an inherently wrong approach but we do believe that it isn’t the most effective strategy.
We find that the biggest challenge most people face in their financial plan is that they have no way to determine if they’re winning or losing. They don’t have a target for what they are trying to achieve. This is because the traditional way of keeping score is based on an almost arbitrary value. It is based on net worth which doesn’t give us any insight as to where we stand.
So, what is the goal of all long term savings? How do you keep score and know if you are winning inside of your financial strategy? We will cut right to the chase and outline the most important thing to be measuring and tracking in your financial game plan.
Key Takeaways:
- What we help people to reframe (1:45)
- Trouble we face with our financial plans (2:22)
- What is net worth? (3:15)
- Fallacy of net worth (8:45)
- Biggest challenge with most financial planning (10:23)
- What happens when you start to have an idea of what your assets produce(16:11)
- The only thing stopping you from where you are and where you want to be (20:24)
- Main conflict when you change your mindset from cash flow to net worth (22:05)
- What we focus on at Cashflow Tactics (23:40)

The road of investing is filled with good intention and great misinformation. Brad, Ryan and Jimmy set out to clear the air and teach the fundamentals of wealth building. Because the alternative is an aimless meandering into what most people believe to be true about asset acquisition.
The reality is investing takes on a completely different meaning depending on who you speak to. It can be incredibly dangerous when your understanding of a particular term doesn’t correlate with the path that you are on. People can waste precious time and resources on something as basic as semantics.
Brad, Ryan, and Jimmy came to realize that one of the biggest things holding people back from successfully investing for themselves was an outdated understanding of what they were attempting to accomplish. They realized that the key to empowering others was rooted in knowledge, so they decided to level the playing field.
They are laying it all out on the table and getting back to basics. Stay tuned for a comprehensive guide on the vocabulary you need to know in order to become financially free.
Consider this your cheat sheet you never knew you needed.

- This is why your outcome is confusing you (2:58)
- Speculating is not investing (7:51)

The mission behind what we do is to empower you to build a life that truly matters. In doing so, we aim to give you the means to analyze money as a tool to not only grow your wealth but to encourage living financially free.
In the previous episode, Ryan and Jimmy laid the groundwork for a financial game plan that produces results. The plan consists of a series of ninety day targets to ensure you are moving in the right direction.
Amazing things begin to happen when you start to follow an organized and outlined plan. The road ahead starts to clear as you build momentum and traction. But human nature has a funny way of veering into the extremes and it is no different when on the path to financial freedom.
Maybe you’re finally starting to see some success and that rush is causing you to be obsessed with your new found results. Well, we’re here to shift that scale back in balance because true freedom doesn’t live at either end of the spectrum.
So, let’s jump in onto how you can barrel towards your goals while still keeping everything in perspective.
Key Takeaways:

In order to get moving towards financial freedom, you need to know where you’re at, what you want, and how to get there. Inside of a game plan we answer all of those questions, and we get our Empire Builders moving in that direction. Financial Freedom sounds like an ambitious goal but it’s not too hard if you stay disciplined to your game plan and continue to RISE UP every 90 days.
Last week we discussed establishing a strike number. If you’ve listened to that episode then you know it’s the first step in developing your game plan. But you may be wondering what a game plan even is or how it should look. In a great game plan we take every Empire Builder, and we show them a system and a process.
Unlike traditional financial advice or what we call Goldfish Advisors, this method is all about accountability. We believe that everyone should have a clear understanding of where they’re headed and take an active approach every step of the way. That’s why we’ve created a unique roadmap to becoming financially free based on 90 day targets.
One of the biggest issues people face when seeking financial freedom is clarity. They aren’t clear on what winning looks like. When you have a plan that is broken down into manageable and concise fragments it enables you to move in confidence with the understanding that you’ll hit your goals and continue to move forward.
“Clarity is the currency of you becoming financially free” - Ryan D. Lee
Key Takeaways:
- What does traditional advice offer? (1:51)
- What is a game plan? (3:16)

To win the game of money you need a clear target. If you're not keeping score it's impossible to win. Today, we are going to teach you how to define and set your financial freedom target. This is such an important topic because it sets the stage for your gameplan.
Ryan, Brad, and Jimmy were inspired to come up with what they call the “strike number” partly due to a book they read entitled, Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand . The concept they came up with is based on the idea of what would happen if producers who are giving value to the economy suddenly stopped production and switched gears.
In Cashflow Tactics we regularly say that the path to financial freedom is cash flow that is greater than expenses. This ideology is in direct opposition from the majority of the financial world. Most discussions determine success based on net worth, but we take a more active approach.
To develop your strike number, you have to determine what it would take to go on strike. What does this mean, exactly? It means understanding what financial freedom means to you from a numerical standpoint. It is the calculation of what you need in spendable money in order to survive. We’re not basing our numbers off of gross income.
Your strike number is meant to help make you start asking questions. It is meant to give you a target that is closer than what you thought. It is how we separate a game plan into manageable and actionable pieces.
Key Takeaways:
- Inspiration for this episode (2:23)
- How we came up with the strike number (5:27)
- What the strike number is meant to do (9:44)
- What exactly is a strike number (14:51)
- Question each listener needs to ask themselves (20:59)
- No BS guide to your target (23:00)

The process of wealth building can be confusing and misleading. On the Rise Up and Live and Live Free podcast we aim to empower you with the information to choose quality financial advisors that will help you reach your goals. We do this by providing educational content that encourages you to think for yourself and not rely on the status quo.
Today’s episode covers the number one thing that is probably holding you back in your financial plan. And it’s probably something that you haven’t even considered. We are talking about traditional advice.
You’re probably very familiar with this equation. Go to school, get a job, and put your money in a well diversified portfolio. You may have even heard this advice from the people you trust most. We aren’t saying that those who offer this guidance are deliberately trying to deceive you. We are arguing that they are misinformed.
Keep listening to find out why the traditional advice you’ve been given is steering you in the wrong direction. We’re giving you the tools to immediately discern what advice you should be taking. And the ability to shut out the voices that are keeping you from financial freedom.
“Every solution that is given to you by a financial planner is a Wall Street solution.”- Ryan D. Lee

Today’s episode is covering the final principle that makes up the Core 4. Ryan, Brad, and Jimmy have spent the last few weeks going over Produce, Protect, and Profit which details the process of building and managing wealth. The fourth principle, Prosper, is the ‘why’ behind it all. It is the core of everything they do and the inspiration for developing the Financial Freedom formula.
The focus of the previous episode was all about profit. It covers how to ensure you’re making the money that you’ve been working hard for. Many people like to just stop there. They believe that the money making aspect is the most important part of the whole process. We wholeheartedly disagree.
Our goal isn’t to offer a money solution. We strive to remove the obstacle of money so people can get what they really want. For the majority of people, money is a vessel to the lifestyle they desire. Living free doesn’t mean having piles of money tucked away. It means crafting a life that allows you to focus on what truly matters. And that looks different for everyone.
We’re going to teach you how to live wealthy in the present moment. Because a deferred life is not a free life. And you deserve to live in the now.
Key Takeaways:
- What does it mean to live wealthy? (2:46)
- One of the hardest things to realize about living free (5:56)
- How Ryan realized he shouldn’t defer a life of freedom (6:28)
- Jimmy’s backstory before committing to a free life (8:35)
- How do you live a prosperous life now? (11:02)
- The biggest regrets people carry (14:40)
- Steps to living in a blissfully dissatisfied manner (17:51)
- What Rise Up And Live Free means (26:22)

We’ve covered the first half of our 4 Core Principles and are finally ready to dive into the one we probably get the most excited to talk about. This week is all about Profit and it’s the one principle that is most commonly misunderstood. Unlike what we covered in the first two principles, Produce and Protect, Profit tends to confuse novice and experienced investors alike.
Why exactly is that?
Because we not only tend to carry a fundamentally biased opinion about assets but the jargon surrounding asset acquisition is often convoluted and confusing. In this episode of the Rise Up and Live Free Podcast, Brad and Jimmy will be explaining what it really takes to have your assets produce enough income to become financially free and any common misconceptions revolving around the process.
They are leveling up your understanding from a standard balance sheet approach to the formulaic approach of the CashFlow Tactics framework. So get ready to really delve in to what it means to be an investor with a capitalist’s mindset opposed to simply working a job as an investor. There is a monumental difference and you’re about to find out why.
Key Takeaways:
- Redefining what financial freedom really means (2:21)
- Why does it take so long to generate income on assets? (3:51)
- The difference between a worker and a capitalist (4:25)
- Who is getting paid? (6:26)
- Passive income doesn’t really exist (8:10)
- Difference between a job and real investing (9:12)
- Connection between our activity and getting paid (10:07)
- Jimmy’s portfolio story and how he used the four quadrants (10:45)
- Do you own a job or are you an investor? (13:50)
- How Brad built a system that he owned and others worked (15:00)
- How to understand how the system operates (16:35)

We’re currently in phase two of our 4 Core Principles breakdown, which is called Protect. In the previous episode of the Rise Up Live Free Podcast, Ryan and Brad talked about acquiring the producer mindset and investing in yourself. Today, the focus is shifting from making money towards learning how to keep it safe.
Now that you know what you need to move forward, you need to learn how to protect what you were able to produce and provide your journey with structure and safety.
The first two principles are placed on opposite ends of the spectrum. Leaning too much on one of the sides will hinder your progress significantly. For instance, people who are focusing exclusively on producing value usually avoid the topic of how to protect your money because they either find it tedious or believe they’re not qualified enough to deal with the subject.
And across from the “avoiders,” you’ll find people who are obsessive protectors who are so deep into worrying about how to keep their money that they prevent themselves from making any significant progress.
So in today’s episode, you’re going to hear all about the different factors at play here and learn how to find that sweet spot that will optimize the pace of your journey.
Key Takeaways:
- The two extreme approaches to investing (2:29)
- Why investing gets a bad rap (4:41)
- How to build long-term abundance (5:38)
- Even high-level entrepreneurs struggle to protect their money (6:47)
- Instead of loopholes, you should rely on structure (10:02)
- Understanding Robert Kiyosaki’s four quadrants of making money (15:04)
- What is the real purpose of tax codes? (16:55)
- How developing a tax strategy empowered Ryan to build his empire (17:57)
- What is a CashFlow Grid? (19:36)
- Savers are losers - here’s why (20:46)
- Getting into the I quadrant (23:21)
- The boost you get from combining the first two core principles (produce + protect) (25:29)
- How to defy the four greatest wealth destroyers (26:41)
- What is a Vault and why do you need to create it (29:27)

Today’s episode is a deep dive into the first piece of the CashFlow Tactics framework. In one of the previous episodes of the Rise Up Live Free Podcast, we got an overview of the financial freedom formula. The first part of that formula, also known as the Core 4, refers to the four foundational principles of wealth.
Over the next several episodes, Ryan, Jimmy, and Brad will break down each of these core principles and the first one sets the stage for the other three.
By producing value you are able to make money and gather resources that fuel the process of building your own empire. And being able to do that successfully is not just about what you need to do. It’s also about who you need to become. You need to embody the idea of being a producer.
In order to live free, you first need to rise up.
Key Takeaways:
- The first piece in the framework of CashFlow Tactics (1:28)
- What it means to be financially empowered (3:06)
- Jimmy’s story and the common misconception about passive income (4:29)
- Who do you need to become in order to be financially free? (7:56)
- The three key areas of life you need to invest in (10:27)
- Why comfort and growth don’t go together (14:29)

Things that are worth having usually require hard work and sacrifice. It turns out, those two things are a huge deal-breaker for many.
For a long time, Ryan, Jimmy, and Brad operated under the illusion that they should try to get their message across to everybody. They understood that you don’t have to be special to achieve financial independence. But just because anybody can make it, doesn’t mean everybody is going to.
People who would rather moan and make excuses than take action are not interested in hearing about financial freedom. Or sometimes, they say they are but are much more comfortable with crossing their hands, doing nothing, and wait on somebody else to get it for them. Which never happens.
When they realized that striving for financial freedom requires a certain mindset, it was much easier to spread the message about the blueprint, build a community and help a greater number of people reach their goals.
CashFlow Tactics group members share a unique quality, which is why they’re more commonly known as Empire Builders. And you’re about to find out why.
Key Takeaways:
- The secret ingredient of CashFlow Tactics (2:11)
- Figuring out who the message of financial freedom is for (4:57)
- Brad’s Super Bowl party story (7:10)
- The “customer condition” is plaguing the majority of the population (11:01)
- Who are Empire Builders? (12:10)
- Why is it so important to find the right tribe for you (18:56)
- Taking the road less traveled (20:37)

Today’s topic is all about the one thing that brings everything together. If you can’t organize and figure out a way to put everything you’ve learned into place, then all of it is going to be for nothing. What you need is to create a unique, personalized, and carefully designed strategic approach that allows you to reach your goals. To sum up - you need a game plan.
This is the defining point of CashFlow Tactics. Whatever it is that you’re trying to accomplish, you’re going to need a game plan in order to make sure you do it right.
Incidentally, that is exactly why the traditional approach to financial planning is so limited. There is no room for accountability or goals in the advice you’re getting from goldfish advisors. Only wishful thinking.
The wait-and-see method is flawed, outdated, and out of touch with the financial world of today. You need to get in the game. But playing to win requires preparation which is why in today’s episode, we’re going to go over all the key components that make an unstoppable game plan that will guide you to financial freedom and provide your journey a foundation and structure.
Key Takeaways:
- The secret is in the process (4:01)
- Fast-tracking your success by finding someone to guide you (6:58)
- Breaking down the essential components of a successful game plan (11:52)
- The Possibility (14:31)

You may have come across a vibe on the internet that the world of investment is a DIY game.
