In this episode of the Modern Man Podcast, host Ted Phaeton welcomes Sergio Loaiza, founder of Protect Your Legacy, a financial education firm. They discuss the importance of financial sovereignty, the concept of infinite banking, and how to build a legacy for future generations. Sergio shares his personal journey, the significance of surrounding oneself with the right people, and the mindset needed for financial success. The conversation emphasizes the need for financial education and the impact of personal experiences on one's perspective on life and finances. Takeaways The system isn't broken; we just don't know the rules. Protecting your legacy starts with protecting it now. Surround yourself with good-quality people. The quality of your life is determined by the quality of questions you ask. Money is like air; when you have it, you don't think about it. You can choose to believe in the principles or not. If you pay cash, that cash is gone forever. You can become your banker. Life is easier when you have your finances under control. You have to be so confident in who you are.

Send us a textWelcome back to Medical Money Matters. I'm Jill Arena, and I'm so glad you're here with me for this very special edition of the podcast. Today, I'm beyond excited to introduce something that's been in the works for over three and a half years—a course that I truly believe can transform the way physicians engage with the business side of medicine.This is Physician's Edge: Mastering Business and Finance in Your Medical Practice. It's an online, on-demand course designed to give you the practical business and financial training that you never received in medical school. And it's something I created in response to a need I've seen over and over again for decades—and more recently, in response to direct requests from many of the graduates of the Physician Leadership Project. They've been asking me, “Where can I go to really dig into finance and business at a level that's relevant to physicians?” And until today, I haven't had a good answer. But now, I do.So if you're wondering how this all came to be—why I felt so compelled to put in the time, the resources, and the effort to build something like this—it all goes back to the very first episode of this podcast. In that episode, I shared a hard truth: our medical education system has done an incredible job of training clinicians to be excellent doctors. But it has completely failed to train you for the realities of business. And in today's healthcare environment, that knowledge is no longer optional. It's essential.Medical schools teach you to be the knower of all things. The one with the answers. And that's exactly what our patients need in the exam room or the OR. But in the world of business, it's a very different game. Out here, it's perfectly acceptable—even encouraged—to say, “I don't know, but I'll find out.” Unfortunately, that kind of curiosity is often stifled in your training. And that stifling can have real consequences when you're running or participating in a multi-million-dollar practice without the background to support it.

Also mentioned in this episode: 00:00 Introduction to the New Tax Bill 04:13 Overview of the Tax Bill's Key Points 11:49 Impacts on Low-Income and Wealthy Households 18:55 Changes to Environmental Credits and Clean Energy 19:50 Implications for Self-Employed and Freelancers Takeaways The new tax bill is officially called the 'one big beautiful tax bill.' I aim to provide clear, fact-checked information about tax laws. The bill extends provisions from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. It is expected to increase the federal deficit by $3 to $4 trillion. The bill primarily benefits households with incomes over $500,000. Medicaid cuts are expected to save $900 billion. The child tax credit has been increased from $2,000 to $2,200. Many environmental tax credits from the Inflation Reduction Act have been eliminated. Self-employed individuals will maintain the qualified business income deduction. If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and share it!

In this episode, Christian and Kevin revisit the hot topic of the government's proposed inheritance tax (IHT) changes affecting pensions from 2027. Following a surge in listener interest, they clarify what's changed, who's now responsible, and what practical steps listeners must take to protect their wealth and family.Key Discussion Points:Background:The government plans to tax pensions on death, a major shift from past policy.The responsibility for reporting and paying this tax will now fall on personal representatives (executors), not financial services companies.Why This Matters:Most executors are chosen for trust, not financial knowledge.Executors are now legally liable for getting it right – mistakes could mean personal financial penalties.Practical Risks:Many people don't know where all their pensions are or which are taxable.Appointing a professional executor (like a bank) could cost families a significant portion of their inheritance, sometimes unnecessarily.Action Steps:Review your will and your choice of executors.Ensure your executor is financially savvy or has access to professional advice.Consolidate pensions where sensible for simplicity and clarity.Avoid defaulting to professional institutions as executors without understanding the costs.WealthBuilders' Support:WealthBuilders is creating two practical guides:For those making a will (how to choose an executor)For executors (what their new responsibilities entail)Guides will be available soon at wealthbuilders.co.uk/IHT and wealthbuilders.co.uk/executorFinal Advice:Awareness is key: know your assets, your will, and your executor's readiness.Take action now—don't wait until it's too late.Call to Action:Sign up for the forthcoming guides at wealthbuilders.co.uk/IHTReview your will and executor choicesShare this episode with anyone who has a pension and a familyContact WealthBuilders with questions or to book a call via the websiteResources Mentioned:Download our free guide on inheritance tax changes for pensions: wealthbuilders.co.uk/IHT Be the first to access our upcoming Guide for Executors — register your interest here: wealthbuilders.co.uk/executorCatch up on WealthTalks episode on IHT changes: How to Protect Your Pension from Inheritance Tax Changes Coming in 2027Connect with Us:Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and all major platforms.For more inspiring stories and actionable tips, subscribe to Wealth Talk and leave us a review!Next Steps On Your WealthBuilding Journey: Join the WealthBuilders Facebook CommunitySchedule a 1:1 call with one of our teamBecome a member of WealthBuildersIf you have been enjoying listening to WealthTalk - Please Leave Us A Review!If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review WealthTalk on your favourite podcast platform
