Depending on the size of the project, investment minimums can be as low as $25,000-$100,000 and have the potential to generate returns that far exceed those of other alternative asset classes.

In the first chapter, told over four episodes, senior market reporter Eileen Kinsella unravels the rise and fall of dealer Inigo Philbrick. What happens when you mix staggering sums of money with opaque financial deals in the high-stakes world of art? Welcome to Art World Infamy, a new podcast mini-series about the scandals and larger-than-life figures that have gained industry notoriety. We begin with a four-part investigation into how Inigo Philbrick climbed to the top of the art world—and how it all unraveled. Once hailed as a wunderkind dealer, Philbrick leveraged personal connections and the soaring contemporary art market to build what looked like an unstoppable career. But his fortunes hinged on deception, and once uncovered, the losses were staggering. In this opening episode, we'll trace the convoluted deals that propelled Philbrick to the top, and would eventually lead to a spectacular collapse that left collectors and investors out of tens of millions of dollars.

In this episode, Alex Heiche discusses how this evolution occurred, the importance of educating artists on where their income is coming from, and more on Sound Royalties – including where & how they operate and the solutions they provide.

What about the fact that half of global GDP is tied to the natural world – from soil health to pollination to forest carbon – and yet almost none of that value is priced into markets? If climate was the first wake-up call, nature is the second.In this 3-in-1 compilation, we revisit past episodes with investors at the forefront of this shift. Each one is building strategies to bring natural capital into the financial mainstream – through listed equities, real assets, or nature-based carbon credits.Here are the featured guests:Martin Berg, CEO of Climate Asset ManagementMartin is pushing to bring natural capital out of the margins and into the financial mainstream.With over $650 million raised and three funds under management, Martin's building a new category of real asset investing – one that spans sustainable agriculture, forestry, and nature-based carbon. The firm's strategies include land acquisition and restoration in developed markets, as well as carbon credit partnerships with smallholder farmers in emerging markets. Each is tailored to a different type of investor – but they share the same goal: aligning financial returns with measurable improvements in natural ecosystems.Full episodeIngrid Kukuljan, Former Head of Impact & Sustainable Investing at Federated HermesAt the time of recording our original interview, Ingrid was Head of Impact and Sustainable Investing at Federated Hermes. In that role, she launched the Biodiversity Equity Strategy – the first biodiversity-themed fund in the listed equity space.Her team screened nearly 9,000 listed companies – the standard MSCI All World benchmark – and found only about 150 that qualified as biodiversity champions: businesses aligned with at least one biodiversity-linked SDG and actively working to preserve or restore nature. The gap was striking. Ingrid pointed out that 80% of the UN Sustainable Development Goals depend on biodiversity, yet fewer than 20% are on track – and in the past 50 years, we've decimated biodiversity globally.Her team used a detailed KPI framework across emissions, water use, land conversion, and waste, making the case that public equities can play a vital role in financing nature-positive outcomes – and in helping restore ecosystems without compromising returns.Full episodeHelen Avery, Director of Nature Programmes at the Green Finance Institute (GFI)Helen is working to make nature investable. As Director of Nature Programmes at the Green Finance Institute, she leads the GFI Hive – a dedicated platform focused on removing the barriers that keep private capital from flowing into nature. That means shaping the building blocks of nature markets – like biodiversity net gain, mitigation banking, and nature-based carbon – and helping define the standards, infrastructure, and policy frameworks that make them investable at scale.Helen's team supports the UK's nature markets and investment readiness funds, partners with farmers and NGOs to build new business models, and works closely with corporates through the TNFD to help them assess their risks and dependencies on nature.Full episode—Connect with SRI360°:Sign up for the free weekly email updateVisit the SRI360° PODCASTVisit the SRI360° WEBSITEFollow SRI360° on XFollow SRI360° on FACEBOOK

Small Bay Industrial (a.k.a. Flex Space) wasn't on your radar—and for good reason.But what if the most overlooked asset class in commercial real estate turned out to be one of the most profitable? In this episode, Cody Payne, SVP at Colliers, breaks down why Small Bay Flex Industrial is quietly exploding—and why more active and passive investors are taking notice. Cody shares how he transitioned from leasing to owning, how syndication plays a role in the space, and why this niche might outperform retail and office over the next decade. Whether you're looking to diversify your portfolio or find a less management-intensive asset, this is an episode you don't want to miss.Key TakeawaysWhy Flex Industrial Is Heating UpThe asset class has evolved: from basic metal garages to glass-fronted multi-use spaces.Demand is surging as small businesses, gyms, e-commerce, and retail users flood in.Triple-net leases and low tenant improvement costs make this a capital-efficient play.How to Add Real Value with Small Bay AssetsSimple cosmetic upgrades (like storefront glass) can attract higher-paying tenants.Reconfiguring larger units into smaller ones can boost PSF rent.Strategic side yards and outdoor storage add ancillary income.Investor Returns: What to ExpectTypical stabilized deals offer 8–10% cash-on-cash returns with low capex.Value-add plays or development deals can push IRRs significantly higher.Cap rates range from 6–8%, depending on market and quality.Management Made SimpleTriple-net leases reduce headaches—tenants handle their own maintenance.Very few after-hours calls; most businesses operate during daytime hours.Easy to find third-party managers who understand this asset class.Syndication in Small Bay: A New FrontierCody's early deals involved rolling his broker fee into equity—low-risk entry point.Syndication works well, especially for stabilized assets or light value-add.Investors like the stability, tenant diversity, and ease of management.Navigating the Market: Deal Flow and FinancingGood deal flow in most metros if your buy box is realistic (e.g., 7–8% cap).Financing is accessible: 25-year terms, 65% LTV, and ~6.25% interest.Banks used to avoid this asset class—now they're chasing it.Connect with CodyWebsiteBook: Flex Space DominationLinkedInConnect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)Schedule a Free Strategy Session with Michael's Team of Advisors

Asset-based lending has come of age, but its evolution has made it challenging to put it in a homogeneous category or asset class, given its complexity and diversity of the underlying universe. From receivables and real estate to royalties and R&D, the range of collateral backing these loans raises questions about ABL's position within the broader private credit complex. In this episode, we attempt to define the history and parameters of ABL, including how loans are structured, as well as crucial due diligence and portfolio construction considerations. To help us explore these topics, we're joined by Greg Turk, Deputy CIO of Illinois Police Officers' Pension Investment Fund, and Cedric Henley, Partner and Chief Risk Officer of Specialty Finance at SLR Capital Partners.Introduction: (0:48)Halftime: (57:12)Guest: (1:02:45)Guests:Cedric Henley, Partner and Chief Risk Officer of Specialty Finance at SLR Capital PartnersGreg Turk, Deputy CIO, Head of Private Markets, Illinois Police Officers Pension Investment FundEpisode Sources

Imagine that you're an entrepreneur who's already had an exit. You're working on a Master's degree at MIT's Entrepreneur Program, and then you get a call from a talent scout at Shark Tank.Not only that, but that phone call landed you a million-dollar investment from the Sharks for your restaurant business (still one of the top five deals ever to this day) and a seven-figure exit a few years later.That's just scratching the surface of why I'm excited to introduce you to my friend Yuen Yung. Yuen is a serial entrepreneur, investor, and the Co-Founder of HalBar Partners, a niche private equity firm specializing in a relatively unknown but powerful asset class: Search Funds.In our conversation, you'll hear the experience Yuen has gained from having several successful exists, why he believes that alternative investments and real estate offer better ROI and security than the public markets, and why his newest venture into search funds—an asset class averaging a 35% IRR—could be a game-changer for investors seeking higher multiples with the steady returns of private equity.In this episode, you'll learn: 1.) Why traditional stock market investing with 60/40 portfolios feels outdated—and why the ultra-wealthy are investing their money in alternative investments.2.) What Search Funds are and why this niche asset class differs from the more common private equity and venture capital investment opportunities—and why most people have never heard of them.3.) How Yuen earned a $1 million dollar investment on Shark Tank, despite initially turning down the opportunity and how he turned it into a 7-figure exit.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/238Tax Strategy MasterclassIf you're interested in learning more about Tax Strategy and how YOU can apply 28 of the best, most effective strategies right away, check out our BRAND NEW Tax Strategy Masterclass: www.lifestyleinvestor.com/taxStrategy Session For a limited time, my team is hosting free, personalized consultation calls to learn more about your goals and determine which of our courses or masterminds will get you to the next level.
