Welcome to Property Unfiltered, a collection of raw and uncensored conversations with Simon Loo and some of the nation's most savvy investors – giving you the insights you need to achieve your property dreams. In this episode of Property Unfiltered, Simon Loo, founder of House Finder, and Smart Property Investment's Liam Garman are joined by head of Strategic Brokers Hung Chuy and investor Lawrence Khuu to unpack how to build a nine-property portfolio in three years. Lawrence, a physiotherapist, built a nine-property portfolio in three years despite a tough post-COVID lending environment. Initially owning three low-yield units in south-west Sydney, he chose to sell them at a loss to free equity and borrowing capacity for more profitable investments. Guided by property expert Simon and finance specialist Hung, he focused on undervalued properties with strong rental yields and capital growth in Queensland and Western Australia. Using trusts and refinancing strategies, they maximised his borrowing power while managing liabilities, even selling his primary residence to fuel growth. Lawrence's journey highlights how clear goals, expert advice, and determination can overcome market challenges and drive rapid portfolio expansion.

Health Insurance is Rigged & Controlled by the Big Companies w/ Donvan Ryckis of Ethos Benefits - AZ TRT S06 EP10 (272) 6-15-2025 What We Learned This Week Health Insurance is primarily run by the Big 4 - BUCA: Blue Cross United Healthcare, CIGNA, Aetna To Insurance Co's – Premium = Revenue, and they are not going lower profits, so no incentive to lower costs Health insurance employer group plans can be broken down into 4 Parts Network PPO is what people typically think of when they think of health insurance There have been revisions to the Healthcare Act passed in 2021 Guest: Donovan Ryckis, Ethos Benefits https://ethosbenefits.com/ https://ethosbenefits.com/documentary/ https://businessofbenefitspodcast.com/ Our Ethos is Simple: Fiduciary First. Act in the best interest of those we serve—no matter the cost. ‘Ethos' represents the guiding principle, character, or spirit of a person or organization. It's the ‘why' that drives decision-making and fuel's purpose. Our Ethos is deeply rooted in the story of our Founder, Donovan Ryckis. Over a decade ago, Donovan, a fiduciary Series 65 securities advisor specializing in retirement and pension planning, was approached by a client facing a dire situation. The client's publicly traded broker claimed there was no solution for a staggering 37.5% health insurance renewal increase—a cost that threatened the business and its employees. With no prior experience in health insurance markets but guided by his unwavering fiduciary principles, Donovan took on the challenge. The result? He mitigated the risk entirely, delivering a solution 12% below the current rate. This allowed the business to thrive and ensured hundreds of employees wouldn't have to choose between basic necessities and skyrocketing health premiums. That moment sparked a revelation. The fraud, waste, and abuse Donovan had fought in retirement planning paled in comparison to the challenges in healthcare. He saw an opportunity to bring transparency and fiduciary principles to an industry in desperate need of change. Donovan pivoted his career, becoming one of the first fee-based health insurance advisors in the nation. By removing all conflicts of interest in broker compensation, he laid the foundation for what is now the leading innovative employee benefits agency in the country, delivering higher quality care at a significantly lower cost to employers nationwide. Notes: Ethos Benefits deals with employee benefits, with a primary focus on group health insurance Per Donovan ‘Employee benefits are rigged' Insurance company premium equals revenue. There is no incentive to lower cost, as it would lower profits. ACA Obamacare passed in 2010, and it capped profits for insurance companies at 20% Insurance Co's are working to expand their pool to make more profit Health Insurance guarantees inflation keeps going up, so family of 4 could spend 35K a year For a business, healthcare cost and employee benefits are a top 3 P&L expense Ethos strategies can create a 30 to 40% reduction on premium impact to lower costs for a business The HQ is in Florida, but they are a virtual office with agents and clients nationwide Healthcare finance and delivery + Improving employee benefits Seg 1 Donovan's bio, he was a financial advisor with a Series 65 license before he got into health insurance. Around 2014 he moved into health insurance seeing an opportunity for better service. Typically you see agents who are working for the health insurance company and not really working for the employer companies they are selling to. Health insurance is primarily run by the Big 4 – BUCA: Blue Cross United Healthcare, CIGNA, Aetna. Health insurance employer group plans can be broken down into 4 Parts: 1. TPA or third-party administrator 2. Network PPO or HMO 3. Pharmacy benefit RX 4. Insurance that covers the caps the limits on the stop loss PPO is your primary network and open on using referrals HMO is a non-preferred network typically has less offerings and tight on referrals Ethos Benefits helps employers to break up the four parts of a group plan and customize Network PPO is what people typically think of when they think of health insurance. Network and the Big 4 health companies have a tighter deal with doctors and contract prices. A lot is pre-negotiated with a set of rates, which is the point of a PPO. This is where you get larger claims and they run in the system of healthcare. Seg 2 Pay more for healthcare in the U.S. than the rest of the world The biggest pharmaceutical companies are in the US Pharmaceutical companies in flight prices, and also set the prices They make money through spread pricing Employers can actually pick up their own Pharma benefit and get the rebates that the big health insurance companies are not giving them Healthcare system is a rigged game The fraud waste and abuse extremely high in health 401(k) and retirement benefit industry is actually tighter with more disclosure than the healthcare industry Regulated better since the creation of the Securities Act in the 1930s and updates that ran through the 1970s and beyond with things like ERISA There have been revisions to the healthcare act passed in 2021 - started in Jan.2022 Actions had 3 disclosures: · Brokers comp and bonus · Data with gag, clauses, and full access to data upon request · Benchmarking for drug cost Further Notes via Google: The revisions you are likely referring to are part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (CAA). While the CAA was passed in late 2020, many of its provisions, including those related to transparency in healthcare, became effective on January 1, 2022. The three key areas of disclosure you mentioned are directly addressed within these regulations: 1. Broker's Compensation and Bonuses: The CAA amends ERISA Section 408(b)(2) and requires service providers, including brokers, to disclose specific information to group health plan fiduciaries. 2. Data Transparency (Gag Clauses and Full Access to Data): The CAA prohibits gag clauses, which prevent plans from providing access to their data. It also requires health insurance carriers to attest annually to their compliance with this prohibition. Moreover, the Health DATA Act, a proposed bill, would further reinforce the right of employers to access their data and hold service providers accountable for non-compliance. 3. Benchmarking for Drug Costs: The CAA includes provisions regarding pharmacy benefit and drug cost reporting, which aims to provide greater transparency and potentially lead to better benchmarking of drug costs. The Build Back Better Act, a separate piece of legislation, also included provisions for Medicare to negotiate drug prices, further impacting drug costs and potential benchmarking. These revisions aim to increase transparency in healthcare pricing and empower consumers and employers to make more informed decisions about their healthcare coverage. Seg 3 Ethos works with Employers to create business plans usually with a 3 to 5 year time horizon. The goal is long-term to lower healthcare cost. Example would be a company with 100 employees with 50 to 80% of them on the health plan (does not include dependents). Ethos wants to keep the demands of a company low, easy transition. Ethos handles employee Qs and healthcare navigation. Ethos is full service. Risk handled 1 of 4 ways - Reduce, avoid, retain, transfer - Transfer to insurance Broker wants to transfer risk Company can control costs Careful not to have too much disruption with a switch to a new company Ex - start with pharmacy part NDC National Drug Code Run report vs costs Pharmacy benefit mgr Pre packaged health plan Gets co approved pharmacy benefit Save 5 - 15% on costs (30%) Separate - parts of group plan Seg 4 Brokers comp - incentives from big insurance companies Opening move - edit pharmacy benefit piece State by state - regulators and rules Employers / employees Know the network and PPO Nationwide covers insurance part – Stop-loss Insurance 30-40 major stop loss companies Ex: Allstate Met Life Sun Life Stop-loss insurance for group health plans acts as a financial safety net for self-funded employers, protecting them from large, unpredictable medical claims. It is a form of additional insurance. Healthcare risk is incredibly predictable on group basis Overall predictable w stats, actuarial analysis Gag clauses look at dataset from current carrier Prescription database sets 3rd party admin are less of a concern, lots of claims Average of 18 claims per employee per year, includes dependents Data - review AI Claims analytics software AI claims analytics software is transforming how insurance companies handle claims by leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning to analyze data, automate tasks, and improve decision-making. 30 - 40% reduction in premium w Ethos Further Notes via Google: Group Medical Plans Breakdown of the common components of a comprehensive employer group health plan, particularly within the context of a self-funded model. Here's a more detailed explanation of each part: 1. TPA (Third-Party Administrator): A TPA is a company that provides administrative services for self-funded health plans. This includes processing claims, handling enrollment, and managing other administrative tasks that would typically be done by an insurance company. 2. Network (PPO or HMO): This refers to the group of doctors, hospitals, and other healthcare providers that the health plan contracts with to provide services to its members. The network defines where employees can go to receive care and often dictates the level of coverage they will receive (e.g., in-network vs. out-of-network benefits). · PPO (Preferred Provider Organization): Offers more flexibility, allowing members to see out-of-network providers, though with higher out-of-pocket costs. · HMO (Health Maintenance Organization): Typically requires members to stay within the network for covered services, except in emergencies. Pharmacy Benefit (RX): This component manages the prescription drug coverage for the plan. It includes negotiating drug prices, processing claims for prescriptions, and managing the plan's formulary (list of covered drugs). Stop-Loss Insurance: This is a crucial element for self-funded employers. It protects the employer from catastrophic claim costs. If an individual employee or the entire group's claims exceed a certain threshold (the "attachment point"), the stop-loss insurance kicks in to cover the excess costs, limiting the employer's financial liability. Additional Considerations: · Data Access: Self-funded plans often provide employers with greater access to claims data, which can be used to analyze healthcare costs, identify trends, and implement strategies to improve employee health and manage costs. · Benchmarking: Employers can use claims data and industry benchmarks to compare their plan's performance to similar organizations and negotiate better rates with providers and other vendors. · Wellness Programs: Some employers offer wellness programs to encourage employees to adopt healthy behaviors and potentially reduce healthcare costs. · Essential Health Benefits (ACA Compliance): Group health plans must comply with the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which requires them to cover a list of essential health benefits, such as outpatient care, emergency services, hospitalization, and prescription drugs. · Other Benefits: Group plans can also include other benefits, such as dental, vision, life insurance, and long- and short-term disability insurance. Understanding these different parts is essential for employers to effectively manage their group health plan, control costs, and provide valuable benefits to their employees.

Insurance agents who struggle at setting new business appointments with prospects, or winning signed Broker of Record Letters, or winning through a quoting process, are typically agents that don't have a Competitive Differentiation that makes the prospect say, "Wow!" In other words, if you don't have anything -- either a tangible service or a unique process -- that separates you from other competitors, your prospect will subconsciously toss you in the bucket of mediocrity and not do business with you. Why? Because, they already have an agent equal to or better than you, so they don't need you. In this throwback episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast, host Charles Specht will GIVE YOU EXAMPLES of differentiation services, both that are insurance-related and also Micro-Niche focused.

Gresham Harkless discusses missing his day 178 recording due to a disrupted routine caused by his baby's sleep regression and adjusting to a time zone change, focusing on how life's unpredictability can impact consistency. Gresham highlights the isolating nature of this work, which can sometimes cause one to lose sight of the purpose and approach. He emphasizes the importance of creating a supportive environment, anchored in faith, and cites 1 Corinthians 3:7 to reinforce that true growth comes from God, not solely from personal effort. Despite the challenges, he remains hopeful, referencing a trainer's experience where things began to shift after five months, suggesting that persistence can eventually lead to progress and clarity.

The Money Wise guys kick this week's episode off with another market review. Last week the markets pulled back, with the Dow down 1.3%, the S&P 500 off by 0.4%, and the NASDAQ falling 0.6%. Despite encouraging inflation data, specifically favorable CPI and PPI readings, geopolitical tension in the Middle East quickly overshadowed the good news. Thursday night's developments between Israel and Iran led to Friday's market drop, with investors hesitant to hold positions over the weekend. The guys discuss how these types of events often spark short-term volatility, not long-term shifts, and share insight into recent rebalancing decisions involving oil and gas positions. Later in the show they delve into insurance-based investment products, often favored by legacy firms, but not always in clients' best interest. Insurance-Based Investments Insurance-based investments, like variable annuities and equity-indexed products, are often pitched as safe, reliable options, especially by legacy firms. But behind the promises can lie high fees, long lock-up periods, and limited transparency. As discussed in this week's episode, these products may serve the salesperson more than the investor, offering hefty commissions without always aligning with a client's financial goals. It's essential to look beyond the sales pitch and evaluate whether these tools truly support your long-term strategy. In the second hour, the Money Wise guys explore RIA vs. Broker. You don't want to miss the details! Tune in for the full discussion on your favorite podcast provider or at davidsoncap.com, where you can also learn more about the Money Wise guys or take advantage of a portfolio review and analysis with Davidson Capital Management.

In this second discussion with Andreas Mang and Jon Camire of Blackstone, Stacey Richter has an advanced discussion on the intricacies of stop-loss reinsurance for high-cost claimants. This show today, for sure, it's for plan sponsors and anyone on or about plan sponsors; but also listen if you are serving high-cost claimants some other way. Because what you'll learn here today is some insights relative to how plan sponsors go about making sure that they can pay you—like if you work for, for example, some clinical organization. There's a, I don't know, 101 starting point of this conversation if you need it on stop-loss, which is episode 478 from a couple of weeks ago. This show is the, let's say, 201-level conversation that I'm having with Andreas Mang and Jon Camire about, as I said, stop-loss insurance and stop-loss insurance considerations. Emphasizing the importance of eligibility audits and aggregating buying power, the guests highlight best practices to avoid overpaying for coverage and ensuring comprehensive risk management. This episode is sponsored by Havarti Risk, which I am so thankful for. The show, Relentless Health Value, actually does cost an unexpectedly large sum of money to create and produce; so I always appreciate when somebody offers to sponsor a show or help sponsor a show. === LINKS ===

In this special episode of day 166 of the Franchise Broker journey, Gresham Harkless reflects on a moment of late-night clarity that led him to reassess his direction and strengths. Gresham realizes that his content creation and digital marketing expertise could be the key to transforming how franchise leads are generated and converted. He identifies a major opportunity in improving the quality and conversion of leads, noting that while he has generated around 120 leads, only about 10–20% have turned into deals, and even fewer have advanced meaningfully. Additionally, he highlights the potential of co-brokering, collaborating with other brokers to help close deals, as a key part of the future strategy.

Gresham Harkless shares a transparent and reflective update marked by personal life events and professional roadblocks. After missing the previous day's video due to his son's birthday and a long bike ride, he dives into the core issues he's facing: lead quality, conversion uncertainty, and growing frustration. Gresham highlights the difficulty of identifying which marketing channels or candidate profiles are effective, as the current results lack clear patterns. He reflects on whether his abilities are well-suited for the broker role, and begins to wonder if launching a franchise himself would have made more sense. Despite feeling mentally drained and unsure when to cut losses, he remains cautiously optimistic, reminding himself that even two to four successful deals could change everything.

Gresham Harkless takes a moment to reflect on recent progress in his personal life and franchise broker journey while spending time in Austin with his wife's family. He shares that travel went smoothly with their baby and expressed hopes of reconnecting with a local franchisee candidate who had previously gone silent. From a business standpoint, he's testing various outreach methods, such as cold DMs and Meta ads—efforts that generated strong engagement but ultimately didn't lead to any conversions. Gresham recognizes that content creation is his core strength and sees an opportunity to shift away from ad-heavy strategies toward more meaningful, relationship-based growth through storytelling and podcasting.
