If you are within three feet of Ed Mathews, you are probably talking about real estate. This week the conversation is with Tom Dunkel, managing principal at Eagle Capital Investments, and it is a clinic in how to vet a deal before a dollar leaves your account. Tom has been a full-time investor for two decades. Over that span he has raised more than $50 million in private capital from a network of investors who lean on his experience to place money into alternatives most people never see: multifamily, self-storage, mobile home parks, medical office, and private lending. His pitch is simple. Real diversification is not large cap versus small cap or value versus growth. It is owning assets that do not move when a headline does. As Tom puts it, a tsunami hitting Japan can knock the stock market down 15 percent overnight, but it does nothing to an apartment building in Phoenix or a storage facility in North Carolina. The backbone of the episode is Tom's SAFE Investing Method, the same screen he uses every day. S is for sponsor: who are you writing the check to, what is their track record, and have you earned the right to ask the hard questions. A is for asset: if you cannot explain the investment to your kid or your elderly parent, you do not understand it well enough to fund it. F is for financials: do the projections hold up, and has this sponsor actually hit numbers like these before. E is for exit: you cannot click your way out of a syndication on a Tuesday afternoon, so you need to know exactly what has to happen, and over what time horizon, before your money comes back. Then Tom goes off the mainstream script on taxes. The standard advice is to 1031 exchange again and again until you die and hand your heirs a stepped-up basis. Tom's question is blunt: do you really want to be managing properties at 90 the way his mother could be. He prefers the lazy man's 1031, taking the gain, then using fresh depreciation from the next deal to shelter income, all without the rigid timelines and same-title rules that make a true 1031 nearly impossible across a group of 20 or 30 investors. Pay the freedom tax, he argues, and buy yourself passive income and time. The buy box conversation is just as practical. Tom likes private lending for first-position security and monthly checks. He likes mobile home parks and co-living because they answer the housing affordability crisis with real, unsubsidized supply, and he breaks down how a Philadelphia operator turns a $1,000 row home into $3,000 a month by renting furnished rooms to tenants on fixed income. He covers where self-storage sits after its boom and consolidation, and why he treats it like multifamily underwriting now. On technology, Tom is candid that he is still early but already getting leverage from AI. His current workflow is to go back and forth with Claude to build a long, specific prompt, then hand it to Manus for deep research on a market like Phoenix multifamily. He even has an AI clone at tomdunkel.ai that will answer your investing questions, as long as you do not bring up the Eagles. The lightning round digs into purpose beyond family, the best advice he ever got from a nine-figure investor, a job he probably should have turned down, and how he defines success now as an empty nester: geographic and time freedom, plus the room to give back through Tunnel to Towers and a scholarship he started for a friend lost to ALS.

Welcome to episode 327 of Grow Your Law Firm, hosted by Ken Hardison. In this episode, Ken sits down with Bob Fraser, CFO and Chief Macro Strategist at Aspen Funds. Bob is also the co-host of Invest Like a Billionaire, a podcast dedicated to educating investors on the power of private alternatives. Bob has a background in tech startups, a history of overcoming financial setbacks, and a passion for helping investors diversify their portfolios beyond traditional markets. The conversation delves into Bob's book Invest Like a Billionaire and explores the world of alternative investments. Bob shares how he transitioned from losing everything in the dot-com crash and the financial crisis to discovering private alternatives, which offer higher yields, less volatility, and unique investment opportunities. He explains why billionaires invest 50-60% of their wealth in private markets, and why average investors can benefit from similar strategies. Bob's insight provides a clear roadmap for law firm owners and high-income professionals looking to protect and grow their wealth in a volatile financial environment. What you'll learn in this episode: The Billionaire Investment Strategy - Why billionaires invest 50-60% of their wealth in private alternatives, not the stock market - How private investments offer superior returns with less volatility Understanding Alternative Investments - How private credit, real estate, and private equity differ from traditional stocks and bonds - Why private credit can provide higher yields and stable cash flow Why You Should Avoid DIY Investments - Why the DIY real estate or small business investment isn't part of the "alternative" world  - The advantages of professionally managed, diversified private funds The Power of Diversification in Private Markets - How building a portfolio of uncorrelated assets can protect you from market volatility - Bob's "Billionaire Portfolio" strategy that balances risk with high returns The Role of Natural Resources in Your Portfolio - Why energy investments are a great hedge against inflation and market downturns - Why now is a generational opportunity in energy Resources:    Website: aspenfunds.us LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bobfraser10/ Facebook: facebook.com/aspenfunds Additional Resources:    https://www.pilmma.org/the-mastermind-effect https://www.pilmma.org/resources https://www.pilmma.org/mastermind https://www.pilmma.org/events/super-summit DISCOUNT CODE: 26SSGROW

In this episode, Michael sits down with Bob Fraser, CFO and Chief Macro Strategist at Aspen Funds and author of Invest Like a Billionaire. Bob shares why billionaires invest very differently than most people—and why relying solely on stocks and bonds may be limiting your ability to build long-term wealth.The conversation explores alternative investments like multifamily, private credit, industrial real estate, oil and gas, and private equity. Bob explains how to think through market cycles, why diversification across uncorrelated assets matters, and how investors can position themselves to benefit from long-term tailwinds instead of chasing the latest trend.Key TakeawaysBillionaires don't rely on a traditional 60/40 portfolio—they allocate heavily to alternative investments and uncorrelated assets. There is always an asset class that is working, even when another is struggling, which is why diversification across market cycles matters. Private credit can provide equity-like returns with lower risk by acting as the lender instead of the owner. Investors should focus on long-term macro tailwinds like reshoring, industrial real estate, and energy demand rather than chasing short-term narratives.Great operators are defined by how they perform during difficult market cycles, not just during boom years.You don't need to master every asset class yourself—joint ventures and partnerships can help you gain exposure to new opportunities.

Alternative investments produce more cash flow with less volatility than public markets. This is why money invested in alternative assets have more than doubled over the last decade, from $7.2 trillion to $18 trillion, and expected to grow to $29 trillion by 2030.  Investments like Private Credit, niche commercial real estate, oil & gas, and specialized finance are exploding. Bob Fraser, Co-founder and CFO of Aspen funds, and USA Today bestselling author of Invest Like a Billionaire, has several specialized high performing funds with over 1000 retail investors in search of high-yielding, consistent cash flow with conservative risk profiles. 

What does it really mean to invest like a billionaire? Kathy Fettke sits down with Bob Fraser, author of Invest Like a Billionaire, to explain how ultra-wealthy investors build long-term wealth — and why public markets often fail everyday investors. After losing everything twice in the public markets, Bob breaks down why billionaires focus on private markets, including real estate, private credit, and alternative investments that offer lower volatility and stronger returns.

Pascal Wagner interviews Bob Fraser, CFO and chief macro strategist at Aspen Funds, to break down how oil and gas can (or can't) fit inside a diversified portfolio. Bob explains the three parts of the industry (upstream, midstream, downstream), why most LP horror stories come from drilling risk, and why he prefers buying already-producing, non-operated working interests to reduce geology/engineering/operator risk. He also walks through what tax benefits investors often misunderstand (IDCs vs. depletion allowance), the importance of low leverage + hedging in a volatile commodity business, and the key red flags he'd watch for when underwriting deals (vertical wells, unrealistic pricing assumptions, and weak operator quality).

On this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan Greene sits down with Bob Fraser, bestselling author of Invest Like a Billionaire and CFO and Chief Macro Strategist at Aspen Funds. Bob shares how billionaire investors moved away from traditional 60/40 portfolios toward alternative investments—and why everyday investors can adopt the same mindset without billionaire-level wealth. Throughout the conversation, Bob explains why professionally managed real estate is often the most approachable entry point into alternatives, especially for investors who want exposure without taking on a second full-time job. He and Jonathan explore the differences between active and passive investing, the importance of aligned partnerships, and why many investors underestimate the operational demands of being a landlord. The discussion then dives deep into macro-driven investing, with Bob outlining why industrial real estate stands out today due to reshoring trends, logistics demand, and lower construction and operational complexity compared to multifamily. Bob also explains why fund structures can be more efficient than single-asset syndications, offering better capital deployment, diversification, and investor control—especially around taxes and liquidity. In this episode, you will hear: Why billionaires shifted away from traditional portfolios toward alternatives How everyday investors can think like billionaires without massive capital The difference between active real estate and truly passive investing Why industrial real estate is outperforming multifamily in the current cycle How fund structures can improve diversification, tax efficiency, and liquidity What macro trends Bob looks for when evaluating alternative investments Follow and Review If you enjoy the show, please follow Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing on Apple Podcasts and leave a rating and review.

In this powerful conversation with Bob Fraser—bestselling author, international speaker, and partner in a private equity firm—we explore three transformative concepts every father needs to understand. First, how do you see people? Your view of mankind shapes everything. Second, what's the real purpose of wealth and finances? It's not what you think. Third, how do you launch your children into their true identity and calling? Bob shares his journey of 41 years of marriage, raising four kids (now with 12 grandkids), and building a family legacy that spans generations. From learning to fly at 62 to writing "Invest Like a Billionaire" with his son Ben, Bob reveals why Earth's greatest days are unfolding now, how the Kingdom of God is steadily advancing, and why your family is here at this exact moment in history. This conversation will challenge your view of success, wealth, fatherhood, and what it means to partner with God in transforming the world.Guest Links:LinkedInWebsite---------Transform Your Body with Ned & RUK Fitness: RUK FitnessThis episode is sponsored by The Adventure of FatherhoodOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/https://www.rebelandcreate.com/Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.

What do billionaires know about investing that the average person doesn't? In this episode, Paul Shannon sits down with economist, fund manager, and author Bob Fraser, author of Invest Like a Billionaire, to unpack the strategies, asset allocations, and decision-making frameworks of the ultra-wealthy. Bob explains why billionaires aren't chasing “hot” trends, they're looking for asymmetric risk-reward opportunities and sectors that offer long-term compounding. He shares how they think about diversification (and why it's not about owning a little of everything), why certain private investments are favored over public markets, and how billionaires position themselves to capitalize on economic shifts before they happen. You'll hear how Bob applies these principles in real estate, why he's watching specific macroeconomic signals right now, and the filters investors can use to evaluate opportunities like the ultra-rich — even without a billionaire's balance sheet. Key Takeaways: The mindset differences between billionaires and everyday investors Why the ultra-wealthy prioritize asymmetric risk-reward setups How billionaires view diversification vs. “diworsification” The role of private investments and niche sectors in their portfolios Economic indicators billionaires watch to stay ahead of market cycles How to apply billionaire-style investing principles at any scale Bob Fraser's current outlook on real estate opportunities Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.

Originally published September 23, 2021. This week we take a deeper look at private equity and venture capital as we look to emulate the strategies and investment vehicles that the ultra-wealthy use to generate better returns and diversification.
