In this episode, franchise expert Jon Ostenson breaks down how today's market makes non-food franchising, service-based franchises, and semi-absentee franchises uniquely attractive — especially for investors seeking scalable, operator-supported businesses.If you've been searching for how to build alternative income, how franchising compares with real estate, what franchise ROI looks like, or what types of franchises fit busy professionals, this conversation answers those exact questions. Jon explains how different franchise models solve the common frustrations professionals face: lack of time, lack of proven business systems, and the desire for passive or semi-passive income. His “executive model” approach shows how a strong operator + franchisor support can help you run a franchise without replacing your full-time career.This episode gives clarity on what franchise categories are performing well, what to avoid, what makes certain brands strong investments, and how to conduct proper franchise due diligence. Jon also shares insights from helping hundreds of investors nationwide — showing you how the right franchise can deliver strong returns, tax advantages, and long-term asset value without the risks of startups or the delays of business acquisition. ⏱️ Timestamps — 15:36 Total Runtime00:00 – Welcome + Introduction00:28 – Why franchising is exploding01:45 – Why high-income professionals are entering franchising03:02 – What to look for in a franchise04:14 – Franchise ROI vs real estate06:18 – Best industries in non-food franchising07:15 – Who is buying franchises today?08:30 – Real examples of top-performing franchises10:00 – Franchising vs startups vs acquisition12:05 – Owner-operator vs semi-absentee vs passive models13:50 – Pitfalls to avoid + how Jon helps clients14:50 – How to connect with Jon OstensonTo connect with Jon, visit: https://www.franbridgeconsulting.com/

Far too many entrepreneurs equate growth with complexity and remain hyper-focused on offering more products on more platforms, spending countless hours for minimal profit. This mindset often results in burnout, wasted spending, and a business that owns them instead of a business that runs without you.But it doesn't have to be that way. And today's guest is here to show you how.Allan Dib has built and scaled multiple companies by simplifying the complex. As the bestselling author of The 1-Page Marketing Plan and Lean Marketing, he's helped millions of business owners cut through the noise, strip away what isn't working, and create marketing systems that scale and generate profit. His mission is simple: turn chaos into clarity and help leaders reclaim their time freedom while still making a profit.In our conversation, Allan and I explore what it really means to build a “lifestyle empire”—a business that not only runs efficiently, but one that generates wealth and fuels your life without sacrificing everything you love. In this episode, you'll learn: 1.) How subtraction leads to exponential growth and why simplicity—not more tactics—is the ultimate growth strategy in marketing and business.2.) How to focus on your “Genius Zone” by building a business that allows you to focus your time on where it matters most.3.) The biggest expense for most entrepreneurs and why hiring a tax strategist is a gamechanger to preserve your wealth.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/264Tax 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.

That's your inner critic—a subconscious program designed to keep you safe through control, comparison, and consumption. And right now, as the holidays ramp up, she's the loudest she's been all year.In this episode of The Cosmic Valkyrie Podcast, Lynn Louise Larson—Master Certified Hypnotist and creator of the Evolution 10X Method—pulls back the curtain on how your critic hijacks your brain's reward system and tricks you into emotional spending. You'll learn the neuroscience and energetic mechanics behind impulse buying, why dopamine keeps you chasing that “quick fix,” and how to shift from willpower to alignment.

If you think you're using money the same way your parents did, you're already behind. If your entire view of Bitcoin is based on headlines, you're missing the point. And if you think this "crypto stuff" is just a fad, then today's episode will shake your perspective. Because what we're living through isn't just a tech revolution; it's the early stage of a complete financial reset. The system you were taught to trust is showing its cracks, and a new one is quietly being built in real time. In this episode, I'll walk you through what's really happening beneath the surface of our economy: how the legacy system is breaking down, why blockchain isn't the same as crypto, and why Bitcoin stands alone as the foundation of a new era. We'll unpack what central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) could mean for your freedom, how tokenization is changing ownership, and what you can actually do right now to prepare for what's coming next. This isn't about hype or headlines. It's about understanding the future of money before the rest of the world wakes up. Episode Timeline & Highlights [0:00] – Introduction: Why the way we use money is already outdated [1:00] – The cracks in the old system: banks, inflation, and eroding trust [4:30] – Blockchain ≠ Crypto: the foundation of the new financial internet [7:30] – Bitcoin ≠ Crypto: digital property, not a startup project [11:30] – What's coming: CBDCs, tokenization, and digital IDs [15:30] – What to do now: education, ownership, and early infrastructure [19:00] – Closing: The financial system is molting. Will you be ready? Key Takeaways The Old System Is Breaking: Inflation, inefficiency, and control are signals that the traditional system is unsustainable. Blockchain Is the Infrastructure: It's not about coins; it's about a trustless, verifiable system the world will soon rely on. Bitcoin Stands Alone: It's not just another crypto. It's digital property, the foundation of a new monetary network. Preparation Beats Prediction: The people who win in revolutions aren't the loudest. They're the ones who understood the shift early and acted on it. Quotables "If your view of Bitcoin comes from headlines, you've already missed the real story." "Banks still run on 1970s rails. You send a wire Friday, it lands Monday, if you're lucky." "Most crypto is a startup. Bitcoin is a protocol. One builds features. The other preserves freedom." "The system isn't just evolving; it's molting. And under that shell, something entirely new is taking shape."

Freedom isn't about money; it's about discipline. Wallstreet Trapper breaks down how wealth can either free you or imprison you. Pay the price for freedom. Freedom isn't free. Wallstreet Trapper drops a raw truth: money can either build you a kingdom or a cell, and the difference is your discipline. In this powerful message, Trapper explains how true financial freedom requires accountability, sacrifice, and the willingness to risk comfort for legacy. Most people chase wealth but stay slaves to fear, luxury, and other people's approval. Freedom demands discipline, boundaries, and focus, every single day.Rich Slave? The Real Price of Financial Freedom

In this episode, Michael talks with Jordan McNeely, a former nuclear engineer who realized his rotating 12-hour shift job was draining his energy and keeping him from family life. That sparked his pursuit of passive income and a scalable path to financial freedom through multifamily real estate. Jordan dove into education, joined a mentoring program to master underwriting and capital raising, and committed 15 hours a week to learning and networking. In just a few months, he partnered with an experienced team on a 96-unit deal in Charlotte and raised over $700,000 from friends and family — despite never having raised money before.Key Takeaways: Skip single-family and scale faster — multifamily penciled out and aligned with his limited time. Time freedom was the motivator — rotating day/night shifts took a toll on family, health, and presence. Mindset shift on raising capital — he stopped “pitching” and started asking about investor goals. One investor conversation per day → $700K raised in 2 months. Retirement funds unlocked big capital using self-directed IRAs. Partnerships shortcut experience — he leveraged a team already active in Charlotte. He made time a priority — 15 hours/week dedicated to education, networking, and raising capital.

In today's episode, Warren Ingram and Pieter de Villiers discuss the common misconceptions about tax planning and emphasizes the importance of focusing on investment growth rather than solely on tax efficiency. They argue that while being tax aware is important, the primary goal should be to achieve substantial investment returns.TakeawaysDon't do all of your planning to avoid or minimize tax.The most efficient way to avoid estate tax is to spend all your money.Taxes are part and parcel of transferring assets to the next generation.High growing investments are preferable to low growth tax-efficient investments.Building complex tax structures can be expensive and counterproductive.Be intentional about tax awareness while focusing on investment growth.The main thing should always be achieving the best investment outcome.Avoid getting caught up in tax strategies that detract from growth.Investing should prioritize returns over tax efficiency.Simplicity in financial planning can lead to better outcomes.Learn more about how Curate Investments can help you here.Send us a textHave a question for Warren?

Struggling with costs in your healthcare organization? Reach out to Michael.  Click Here for more info Journey to Financial Independence with Kam Dasani In this inspiring episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, we sat down with Kam Dasani to explore his journey from a high-paying corporate role in Silicon Valley to full financial independence through trading and investing. Kam shared how he transitioned from a $250,000 salary to a life of true freedom—where time, location, and purpose all align. His story offers valuable insights for anyone ready to step away from the corporate treadmill and design a life on their own terms. From Corporate Hustle to Freedom Kam opened up about leaving behind the demanding pace of Silicon Valley in pursuit of autonomy and balance. He shared how he built multiple income streams—from investing to trading—and how financial freedom granted him the ability to live life on his own schedule. The discussion reminded listeners that success isn't just about wealth; it's about having control over your time and energy. The Power of Location and Lifestyle Design We discussed the high costs and burnout culture of San Francisco compared to the slower, more fulfilling lifestyle Kam found in Dallas. He shared how geographic freedom has been key to his happiness and flexibility, proving that financial independence can also bring peace of mind. Trading, he noted, offered a career path that fit perfectly with his desire for flexibility and mobility. Smart Investing and the Role of Research We talked about the importance of doing deep research before making investment decisions. While AI tools can support the process, Kam and our team emphasized that critical thinking and due diligence remain essential. We also clarified that our discussion serves as educational insight, not financial advice. Risk-Free Trading Through Prop Firms Kam shared how he discovered prop firm trading after connecting with Mahul Patel, a former Goldman Sachs algorithm trader. Prop firms give traders access to leveraged capital with minimal personal risk—traders keep 80% of profits while risking only a small portion of their own funds. Kam explained how understanding this model opened doors to sustainable, low-risk trading opportunities. Futures Trading and Financial Leverage We explored futures trading, where markets run nearly 24/5, and discussed how this structure enables traders to maximize returns while maintaining low operational costs. Kam revealed that with about 10 hours of training per month, he learned strategies that outperformed many traditional side businesses. Together, we emphasized the discipline required to manage leveraged funds responsibly. Real Estate, Mentorship, and Managing Emotions The conversation turned to real estate, where we compared risk profiles and discussed the importance of mentorship—such as Kam's guidance from his uncle and professional brokers. Kam also reflected on how emotional regulation plays a crucial role in trading and investing success. His story of reaching millionaire status underscored the importance of mindset, patience, and mentorship in achieving financial goals. Final Reflections Kam's journey is a testament to the power of intentional living, strategic investing, and self-discipline. For those dreaming of leaving the 9-to-5 grind, this episode offers both inspiration and practical insight into how to make that transition responsibly and sustainably. Kam's bio: My name is Kam Dasani - I'm a top 1% Futures & Options trader who helps others escape the rat race through trading. If you think it's too good to be true, my team is ex-Goldman Sachs and we have $4M in capital that we are trading with. On this channel, I don't only talk about trading. I talk about (and show) the life that I've built through skills and connections. I interview others in similar spaces, as well as my clients who have seen success by trusting me.

Far too many investors seek out advice and chase ROI without realizing how much bias and hidden costs are influencing their decisions. Pay-to-play is very common in the mastermind space, but there is one community that has a different set of rules.I've been a member of many mastermind groups over the years, and that's why I want to highlight what sets the Lifestyle Investor communities apart from the rest. What started as a handful of friends talking shop and sharing deals over a glass of wine has become one of the fastest-growing investment communities in the world.Today, I'm joined by Ryan Casey, Chief Operating Officer of The Lifestyle Investor, to pull back the curtain on how our communities have evolved into a global ecosystem with world-class due diligence, exclusive deal flow, and unforgettable live event experiences around the world.You'll hear how we've redefined the way people build wealth. From eliminating bias in investing and spending upwards of $300k/year on vetting and due diligence, to creating programs like our Foundations group for young adults, the Open Community for new investors, and even a financial literacy book for kids.Whether you're just starting your wealth journey or scaling into financial freedom, this episode shows how to build a life designed around freedom, purpose, and the people you love.In this episode, you'll learn: 1.) How we've built an investment ecosystem that is the opposite of a “pay-to-play” group and helps our members avoid costly mistakes with industry leading experts and strategies.2.) The difference between our four communities—Lifestyle Investor, Tribe of Investors, Foundations, and the Open Community—and how to know which one's right for you.3.)

He also discusses how everyday investors can leverage syndications, mobile home parks, and debt funds to create long-term financial freedom.

Episode Description "I'd love to join the Academy, but I'm already in debt. I can't justify spending more money right now." This is one of the biggest objections I hear, and I get it, I've been there too. But if you're in a tough financial position, this episode is going to completely flip your mindset and show you why being in a hole isn't a reason to freeze, it's the exact reason to move. Most people wait until they feel financially safe to invest in themselves, but that feeling may never come if you're drowning financially. You're not lazy, you're scared. And that fear keeps you stuck in the same cycle that got you here in the first place. The truth is, the cost of doing nothing is far more expensive than you realize, and most people aren't calculating what inaction is actually costing them. In this episode, I break down the real math behind waiting, share the story of Miranda (who went from working three jobs with sweaty palms to landing a $500,000 dream job in Hawaii), and explain why the Academy isn't just an expense, it's a path out of your current situation. Episode Timeline & Highlights 0:00] – The biggest objection: "I'm already in debt" [0:33] – The emotional trap of waiting until you're ready [1:16] – Pattern recognition: What separates wealthy from broke mindsets [1:41] – The hidden cost of inaction (and why $100K in savings is losing you $6K annually) [2:19] – Real numbers: Average students find $24,000 extra per year in cash flow [3:22] – Why "I can't afford it" is really about not trusting yourself [4:29] – What Academy students actually get: The automated financial roadmap [6:05] – Students with debt pay it off 28 months faster than expected [7:01] – Reframing affordability: It's about priorities, not bank balance [8:43] – Miranda's transformation: From three jobs and anxiety to $500K dream life [10:14] – Why the moment you feel least ready is when you need to leap Key Takeaways The Cost of Inaction Is Higher Than Investment: Our average student finds an extra $2,000 per month in cash flow, which compounds to over $1 million in 17 years. Fear Keeps You Stuck in Patterns: Pattern recognition separates wealthy individuals from those who remain broke. The same cycle repeats until you take action. Debt Doesn't Disqualify You: Thousands of students have joined with debt and become debt-free faster than they ever imagined possible. Quotables "You're not lazy. You're scared. And that fear keeps you stuck." "The longer you wait for your finances to get better on their own, the more time goes by. And time is money, and time is compound interest." "Sometimes the moment you feel the least ready is the exact moment you need to take the leap of faith."

Discover why November is typically a good month.  Are you on track for financial freedom...or not? Financial freedom is a combination of money, compounding and time (my McT Formula). How well you invest can make the biggest difference to your financial freedom and lifestyle. If you invested well for the long-term, what a difference it would make because the difference between investing $100k and earning 5 percent or 10 percent on your money over 30 years, is the difference between it growing to $432,194 or $1,744,940, an increase of over $1.3 million dollars. Your compounding rate, and how well you invest, matters!  INVESTING IS WHAT THE BE WEALTHY & SMART VIP EXPERIENCE IS ALL ABOUT - Invest in digital assets and stock ETFs for potential high compounding rates - Receive an Asset Allocation model with ticker symbols and what % to invest -Monthly LIVE investment webinars with Linda 10 months per year, with Q & A -Private VIP Facebook group with daily community interaction -Weekly investment commentary -Extra educational wealth classes available -Pay once, have lifetime access!

Ever wonder what really goes on inside a syndication company? In this rare behind-the-scenes episode, Michael Blank and his Nighthawk Equity business partner, Drew Niffin, pull back the curtain on how they operate their private equity firm — the wins, the painful lessons, and how they've adapted during the toughest market the multifamily industry has seen in decades.They share the full story of scaling from the early partnership days… to building a team… to navigating the last 2.5 years of interest rate spikes, stalled rent growth, and operational pressure. You'll also get a candid look at what's changing inside Nighthawk — including new investment opportunities being unlocked for passive investors.This is the most transparent discussion they've ever recorded about what it really takes to run an investment company — and where multifamily investing is going next.Key Takeaways: Success Takes a Team: Syndication is impossible to scale alone. Capital raising, operations, and acquisitions each demand full-time focus.Systems Create Stability: Implementing a business operating system like EOS transformed communication, accountability, and execution across the company.Hard Markets Build Strong Operators: The last 2.5 years forced better operations, tougher decisions, and stronger lender relationships.Debt Determines Destiny: Loan structure can make or break a deal — even if operations are strong.Operations Win: Leasing, renewal strategy, resident experience, and in-house oversight are now essential competitive edges.The Future Is More Than Multifamily: Nighthawk is expanding into real estate debt funds and boutique private equity (buying profitable small businesses).Investor-First Mission: Every system and decision centers on one outcome — delivering reliable performance to passive investors.Connect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)Schedule a Free Strategy Session with Michael's Team of AdvisorsExplore Michael's Mentoring ProgramJoin the Nighthawk Equity Investor ClubReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsSyndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael Blank For full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session496/
