This is the first instance of the WealthSprint episode format here at Wealth Bootcamp. The idea is to focus on actionable strategies that can put you on the path to building wealth.  Having recently enjoyed an interview with Mat Sorensen, expert on self-directed IRAs, we’re sticking with building wealth through retirement savings in this episode.

In this episode, we provide a foundation to the previous episode on self-directed IRAs by covering some of the basic differences between Roth IRAs and Traditional IRAs. We then provide a number of scenarios of relevance to entrepreneurs and explore which form of individual retirement account performs better under the circumstances.

Individual retirement accounts can be a great way to build wealth. They offer tax advantages, protection from creditors, and an opportunity to consolidate accounts for easier management of your investments. However, if your IRA is held at a bank or large financial institution, this type of custodian typically restricts your investment universe to stocks, mutual funds and bonds. Self-directed IRAs allow you to take control of your retirement account and invest in alternative assets like real estate, shares in private companies and precious metals.  In this episode, we interview Mat Sorenson, author of best-selling author of The Self-Directed IRA Handbook. Join us for a fascinating discussion of tax-efficient investments, alternative investmewnts and mega-IRAs.

In this episode our guest, Kartik Gada, kicks off the discussion by explaining the impact of technological deflation on the global economy and the ineffectiveness of traditional monetary policy. He then argues for pairing near-zero interest rates with low inflation. He later makes a strong case for universal basic income. In the second half of the podcast, Kartik gives an overview of the disruption artificial intelligence is causing in the investment world. Be sure to stick around until the end of this episode when we’ll talk about why healthy yields in bonds, CODs and savings accounts are likely to be a relic of the past.
