Ken Greene discusses the process of active investing and how it compares to passive investment strategies. His approach is more hands-on, watching the market daily, as he sees it as a way to relax and keep himself engaged. He underlines the importance of being aware of one's financial position and evaluates the patterns in the stock market to make informed decisions.
Greene emphasizes that the stock market, whilst a powerful tool for accumulating wealth, can be unpredictable. He expressed his concerns about the rapid rise of the stock market, considering it to be "unnatural". He cautions listeners who have taxable and qualified accounts, especially those nearing retirement, to consider cashing in on their returns and transferring the money to safer assets. He also suggests reevaluating your portfolio with the help of your advisor.

In this episode of the Engineer of Finance podcast, host Ken Greene interviews Parker Pursell, president of eQRP, a company that offers alternative retirement plans. Parker shares the motivation behind eQRP, which originated from the founder's personal experience of his father's traditional 401(k) failing to provide sufficient financial security. The company enables individuals to access their 401(k) savings, invest outside the stock market, and provides educational tools to promote financial literacy. The conversation emphasizes the importance of self-employment as a route to qualify for a self-directed 401(k). eQRP particularly serves those dissatisfied with traditional 401(k) plans or wish for greater control over their retirement savings.

Ken Greene interviews Dr. Phil Armstrong who explores the Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) and its implications for government spending, inflation, and the supply of goods. He emphasizes that external factors like global commodity prices, supply chain issues, and world events are more significant causes of inflation than simply creating money. Dr. Phil supports his argument with historical examples, like Weimar Germany and the Roman Empire. He clarifies that modern currencies are not backed by gold and encourages critical thinking about the subject. His insights on MMT offer a valuable alternative perspective on government finance and the causes of inflation, challenging conventional beliefs about the relationship between money creation and inflation.
Who’s the Guest? Dr. Phil Armstrong is a graduate of the universities of Leeds, Hull and Southampton Solent, the author of Can Heterodox Economics Make a Difference? Conversations with Key Thinkers, (Edward Elgar Publishing, 2020) amongst other publications and is currently working on what may be the definitive biography of economist and theorist Warren Mosler, one of the leading figures, if not the leading figure in the MMT world. Dr. Phil is also a regular podcaster and guest speaker. In addition, he also teaches at York College.

In this podcast episode, Ken interviews Tammi Brannan, who shares the importance of a personal blueprint, networking, and authentic communication. They discuss the "Peanut Butter and Jelly Triangle" concept for content creation that represents the business, provider, and intended audience's value. Using real-life stories, they highlight relationship building and emotional value, emphasizing on staying true to oneself and utilizing personal skills and strengths for client success.
Who’s the Guest? In 2006, Tammi woke up to realize that her life was stagnating, and she felt an all-consuming need to re-invigorate it somehow. Through God's gentle guidance, she was led to study the difference between who she is, and who her life was allowing her to be. This study became the "Blueprint Process."
In today's world, there are so many distractions, between other people's needs, and the expectations of society. Who are we, amidst the noise? You each have a Blueprint, a toolbox full of everything you need to bring value to the world and fulfillment to yourself. Without knowing your Blueprint, you spend your life wandering between others' expectations, never fulfilling your own.

Ken Greene and Steven Hayes talk about The Fair Tax proposal that seeks to replace income tax with a revenue-neutral retail sales tax, which would simplify the tax code, eliminate payroll and income taxes, reduce prices for individuals, increase disposable income, transfer power back to the people, and stimulate productivity for the country. Skeptics may be hesitant due to the proposed 30% sales tax, but upon closer examination, the Fair Tax would provide benefits such as simpler taxation for all and a prepayment cushion for lower-income families. The proposal faces opposition from lobbyists and politicians who seek to maintain control and influence over taxation. However, momentum for the Fair Tax proposal can be created through discussion, media coverage, and raising awareness of the benefits of the proposal.

Episode Highlights
- The Fair Tax is a consumption tax that would replace income tax, personal and corporate
- It would be a 23% inclusive basis tax that is charged only on new retail goods and services
- Every month, a family would receive a prepayment in their bank account to pay for the Fair Tax. This prepayment is calculated based on the poverty level for each family size
- The Fair Tax would create more privacy and freedom for individuals as it's a voluntary tax system
- This would also simplify the tax system and relieve the burden on CPAs and those who have to deal with the current tax system
- Eliminating income tax and payroll tax could greatly benefit low-income families
- The Fair Tax could be a huge incentive for the US to become a production machine and increase economic growth
- Making the Fair Tax tax-inclusive could make it easier to pass, but it would not provide transparency for the cost of government
- The importance of calling representatives and expressing support for the Fair Tax to create momentum and discussion
- The webpage www.fairtax.org provides information about the Fair Tax and how to join the organization

The inflation is insane. It needs to stop. It will stop. I just hope it's on our terms.
In this episode, I discussed how to combat inflation due to the pandemic by cutting out fast food and investing in passive income streams. I also shared my opinions on the surge in demand for travel trailers, boats, and toys.
Looking forward to having more guests on the podcast in the upcoming quarter!

If you’re going to retire today, are you ready?
After years of hard work, you are entitled to a happy and fulfilling retirement. Travel around the world, spend more time with the family, and get a new hobby — the possibilities are endless. However, retirement can be scary too, especially if you’re not ready.
In this episode, Ken Greene highlights the importance of retirement planning and saving for the future. He talks about the focus on how a decade later, or even 40 years later, those who put money into retirement plans, fixed mortgages, and other savings plans ahead of time will have a whole bunch of money sitting in those accounts. Ken also shares about the value of forced and semi-forced savings plans like Home MTG, 401k, IRAs, and pensions. He emphasizes the importance of planning for the future and setting aside money now in order to reap the benefits later in life.

Ken Greene welcomes Jake Menath to discuss the pros and cons of renting versus buying a home. He argues that although buying a home is a significant investment, it is one that will eventually pay off. He also advises against overspending on a home and urges people to consider their comfort level before making a purchase.
Jake is a real estate agent and real estate investor. He sold more than $200 million in real estate in his career.
With Ken, they discuss the importance of finding a city that is boundary locked in order to take advantage of appreciation. They mention that zoning is often misunderstood and that it is changing in many cities. They advise people to buy property in a city and hold onto it for the long term.

If you’re just starting your business, should you take the profit from it? Some experts will say you should, but there are also others who think you shouldn’t.
In today’s episode, Ken Greene welcomes Rocky Lavani to talk about the importance of taking profits out of a business up front, in order to protect oneself financially in case the business should fail. They also discuss the difficulties of taking simple actions that lead to success.
Ken and Rocky talk about the book, Profit First, and how it can help business owners to better manage their finances. Rocky explains the principle behind Profit First, which is that businesses will use up whatever is allocated to them. He says that entrepreneurs often throw time and money at problems instead of thinking through them. He advises small business owners to follow a simple system consistently in order to increase their cash flow.

Ken Greene welcomes David Wiesner, President of Leap Systems to discuss the LEAP Software, a tool designed to help people understand money and financial planning. David is the President of LEAP and he talks about the company’s mission to help people accelerate their financial planning.
I love the philosophy and the model behind LEAP: Lifetime Economic Acceleration Process. I learned about LEAP a few years ago and was impressed by the way it changed my thinking about money. It helped me understand the power of economic life value and the death benefit, and how it has enhanced their savings and investment strategies.
David and I also talk about how he has worked with investors and how he believes that he would be the perfect client for the company. He also talks about how he has experience with managing family finances.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Should you delegate tasks to a virtual assistant? Can a virtual assistant really take a big chunk off your shoulder?
For today’s episode, I had a conversation with co-founders Julie Ann Hepburn and Mimi Klosterman of Financial VA to talk about how to onboard and train assistants and virtual assistants.
We discussed the importance of having an onboarding process for new employees, including procedures and standard operating procedures (SOPs). They talked about how this can help avoid setting employees up for failure and how it can be helpful for employees to understand the expectations of the company. They also discussed the value of recording and verifying procedures and SOPs, as well as having employees type out these procedures.

You may have heard of the Fair Tax, but what about the Inflation Non-Reduction Act? This new piece of legislation is designed to reduce inflation by stimulating consumption.
For today’s episode, Ken talks about everything surrounding the Inflation Non-Reduction Act: What it is, what it is intended to do, as well as his takeaways on the Inflation Non-Reduction Act. He argues whether this new law will be able to either help decrease or increase the percentage of inflation in the country. The bill will most likely become law and it is doubtful it will reduce inflation.

How much are you saving from your gross income? Do you maintain a percentage from the money you’re earning to your savings and retirement or does it go purely on debt and mortgage?
Have you ever done a spot check on your finances?
According to Ken, doing spot checks on your finances every now and then should be a regular practice. For today’s episode, he explains why over the last four years, his savings target has increased from 10% to over 20% of his gross income. He also cites the different ways on how you can protect and grow your money in the long run. If you can start changing the flow of money and changing how money moves and create your own system and cut out the middlemen and start financing everything in your life yourself, essentially, you can reduce these debt payments to others.
Ken Greene transitioned from being a Professional Engineer (P.E.) to the “Engineer of Finance.” His goal is to help people become financially independent and help them earn better yields with less risk by investing Off Wall Street.

A Jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.
How do you see yourself: Someone who can do many things, but not an expert on any of them or are you the expert of a certain field, but cannot perform other tasks?
For today’s episode, Ken describes how a jack of all trades, but a master of none, can be seen as a compliment, rather than a criticism. He also talks about how he, a jack of all trades, was able to create a strong foundation and teaching which allowed him to change other people’s lives and perception about money and savings.

One of the most effective personal traits of successful people is delayed gratification. If you’re committed to your goals, living with your values, and prioritizing your future, you can get to see and enjoy the fruits of delayed gratification.
For today’s episode, Ken differentiates immediate from delayed gratification. He talks about how changing the flow of money, budget, and savings had a powerful impact on his life and the clients and community he served.
Embracing delayed gratification is not easy: It involves being dissatisfied, which can be challenging for people. Making the effort to have discipline and drawing a line between your wants and needs can result in better and bigger rewards in the future.

One of the main reasons why Bitcoin is a better inflation hedge compared to other cryptocurrencies is due to its fixed supply of 21 million coins. However, with the economic contraction and government stimulus increasing the global money supply, can bitcoin still position itself as an inflation hedge in the near future?
For today’s episode, Ken shares what’s on his mind: The consistent questions that he has been asked this year. He talks about why he’s not a fan of socialism as well as George Orwell’s powerful message that he shares through his books. Ken also argued about the ripple effect of inflation and how it’s regarded as the largest form of taxation.
Ken also breaks into the important topic of today’s world: Cryptocurrency and why a lot of people, even the government, take interest in it.

After a long day of work, relaxing should be on top of your priority. Lying down, watching your favorite show, or even reading a good box can help relax your mind.
In your case, what do you do to relax?
In today’s show, Ken talks about his unique way of relaxing: He looks at Stock Market historical data to relax. He shares that he enjoys researching and studying the stock market's historical data. Although his data does not guarantee what will happen in the future, understanding the market history can help you prepare for the bad (and good) years.

In this show, Ken talks about the importance of understanding the 5Ws to help you with future audits because it appears the IRS will be hiring a lot more employees to drastically increase audits next year. He does not think this is the right approach to increase tax revenues, but this appears to be our new reality at this time. On a fun note, Ken also discusses how the 5Ws can be very effective in using to identify and accomplishing your priorities and dreams.

Chasing rates of return in investments and winning feels great! However, if investors are just focused on growth and don't pay attention to protecting those assets -- things can go sideways fast.

The financial entertainer, Jim Cramer with Mad Money, should embrace what makes this country so great. Instead, the TV personality appears to embrace dictatorship. I thought after he became so famous for his epically wrong prediction in March 2008 about Bear Sterns that he would gain some humility and wisdom. He didn't. My tolerance for inauthenticity is zero.
I also talk about my philosophy of investing in the stock market: defenses win championships.

This is a great time to focus on your health & wealth. The fastest way to have more money is typically not starting with chasing rates of return. It's by 1st reducing opportunity costs. Your largest opportunity costs are taxes. you must focus on reducing income taxes with your financial strategy.

Do you handle your own finances? How do you make sure that you have enough for each category? Do you also build your emergency funds as well as money for your short-term and long-term goals?
Managing your money, as well as your savings, investments, and of course, for emergencies, is essential. And for Sahirenys Pierce, she made her money, and her budgeting system work for her and her family.
As she sits down with Ken, Sahirenys recalls how it all started: From her parents down to her getting involved with finances and budgeting at an early age. She also talks in-depth about her own system, the High-5 Banking Method, and why it works not only for her but for other people too. Sahirenys also reiterates the importance of setting money not only for your goals but for emergency purposes as well.

The solutions can be greater than the original problem. It can also be more damaging.
Ken talks about an unusual topic that is not often discussed in his show: the government. He believes that in order for a country to be strong, the government should be strong, efficient, and idea/solution-driven. Ken also shares his son’s favorite book, There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly, a perfect example of how leaders should be providing resolution to today’s biggest problems.

In this episode, Ken shares the big perception between financial advisors and how the industry needs more people with integrity.

Is college education a necessity or a luxury? When it comes to getting a higher education, the cost of studying can be high: This is why most students are getting a student loan.
Ken sits down to talk about the numbers revolving around student loans. He says that before you pursue higher education, you need to be strategic and you should decide where you really want to be years from now: Since college is a very expensive place to figure things out. He also shares that even if a college education can be costly, it’s one of the best investments you’ll make.

Can you confidently say that you are great at handling your life and finances? If you’re not, you’re not alone. There are many people who might be good at handling their lives, but not their money. There might also be those who are great at budgeting and investing, but their lives are suffering.
In today’s show, Ken shares the common excuses that he’s hearing from people in terms of handling their finances and meeting financial advisors. Not only did he narrate the different life-changing stories about his life (and others), but also answer the question “Is money important to you?”

A follow-up to my conversation with George Kamel. I am grateful he came on the show and believe that he and the Dave Ramsey show have helped a lot of Americans create a strong foundation of living within their means and getting rid of bad debt.
However, I teach listeners of the show and a lot of my clients I work with that I disagree with the premise that all debt is bad debt. Our economy is driven by debt. Our money is debt. This is how the financial game is played. There is good debt. Never using debt and being debt-free could be a good strategy for living an ordinary financial lifestyle in removing the burden and worries of debt on your shoulders.
However, if you feel that you're meant for an extraordinary lifestyle and want to have a lot more use of your money today and create the potential for a way wealthier tomorrow, you must embrace good debt/loans, leverage, 'The Spread', opportunity cost, and other financial goodies.

This is insane! The $1.2 trillion supposed infrastructure bill passed the senate and it appears it will become law soon. A $3.5 trillion dollar budget is proposed. Our government needs to live within its means or there won't be much left to govern.

Struggles, resistance... life is going to hit us. If we make a mistake is it a failure or an opportunity to learn and improve? It's only a failure if we don't learn and apply that new knowledge. I like to be proactive and avoid conflict. However, conflict (resistance) appears all the time. If we embrace it by taking ownership to learn and improve our actions. We will become 3x, 4x, 10x, eventually 100x stronger.

Tammi and Ken discussed how tracking what you eat can influence your next meal. This also applies to money. Tracking your income and spending can help you identify what is a "want" or "need."

Consumer Price Index (CPI) was reported as a 4.2% increase from last year! Inflation has been recognized by our government and the reckless creation of more US dollars has to stop. Government must live within its means.

Last month, I said the tax storm is here, talking about hyperinflation. After listening to President Biden recently and reading his administration's American Families Plan, I believe these ideas (maybe law soon) are a BAD idea to help low-income and middle-income families. Increasing income taxes, increasing capital gains tax, eliminating step-up in basis, more IRS audits, and printing more U.S. dollars will reduce our spending abilities and wealth.

Simple systems that you put in place can create an incredible amount of wealth and more importantly, cash flow. Then automate some of your systems. You will create so much momentum for your savings, cash flow, and wealth creation. Plus, when you delegate activities through automation, you have more time to focus on other activities that are important to you.

What is our government doing?! Printing trillions of dollars and more trillions of dollars might (will) not end well for us. Hyperinflation, the ultimate tax has arrived. Higher taxes will create more and more of a chasm between the rich and poor as it obliterates the middle class.

Bill West with Bareknuckle Brand Marketing is my guest. I asked Bill to come on my show as a guest due to my gratitude for the work he and his team did for me approximately 7 years ago. As a business owner, there are times (sometimes too many times), we have to do a lot of things that we do not enjoy as business owner. I love hosting this podcast every week. I love helping my clients every day. However, I do not care for a lot of the minutiae, we business owners/entrepreneurs have to deal with to survive and be successful.
One weekend this year, working again on a Saturday, I was a little down in the dumps, looked up from my desk, and saw my awesome Bankosaurus® smiling at me. I then looked at my Joey the T-Rex logo, and was happy again and filled with gratitude. I immediately sent Bill an email asking if he would like to come on this podcast to see how he could help other entrepreneurs/business owners succeed with their branding and marketing. It all begins with branding and if it was not for "The Code" process that Bill and his team put me through, I would not have my Joey the T-Rex or the Bankosaurus® to share with the world!

I discuss one of the most boring topics in the world: health insurance. However, it's important to have to protect your health and wealth. My favorite health insurance plan is the Health Savings Plan (HSA) used with a qualifying High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP). It can be a great strategy to get income tax deductions and income tax-free growth for your savings to be used for your health/medical expenses.

The importance of vacation: taking a day off, a few days off, maybe a week off with family and friends. You need to give yourself permission to relax. When you do, not only will you have a great time off, the coolest ideas for your profession will present themselves to you -- which you can implement when you're back at work.

Phil is a licensed life settlement broker with SFS Life Settlements. He represents sellers of life insurance policies. Ken has a great discussion with Phil, where he dives into various reasons why someone would want to sell their term or permanent life insurance policy.

I love math and logic. Math and logic are true for me. Through them, deductive reasoning can be applied to make educated decisions. I love learning and educating. I learn a lot by listening to others and, above all, by observing their actions, doing and applying what they say. That's the truth. Get on the logic train. For that, you must apply math and logic to the financial industry. Many financial advisors teach us to do one thing, yet the industry is doing the exact opposite to create a lot of wealth. Let's do what they do!

The majority of people's investments are in equities and bonds in the stock market. Bonds are typically seen as a good way to diversify. I disagree. I believe a great way to diversify is to have a portion in the stock market, a portion in life settlements, a portion in oil & gas, a portion in real estate, a portion (major portion) in Bankosauruses®, a portion under your mattress, a portion in metals & cryptocurrency, a portion in ...

Happy Thanksgiving! It's Ken’s favorite holiday. He talked about gratitude for what we have and gratitude for what is to come. This has been a tough year for many. It has been a tough year for the oil and natural gas industry. Ken talks about the reversion to the mean and how it can be your Time Machine, a way to go back in time and invest in areas that have experienced a huge correction in the market. The stock market has been crushing it again this year and it does not have a correction there (yet). Instead, the oil and natural gas industry experienced a large correction this year and this sector could be your Time Machine!
