Whether or not we want to acknowledge it, we're in a new era of climate investing. Unprecedented uncertainty, federal policy upheaval in the United States, repeated energy shocks from wars, inflation, high interest rates, a persisting liquidity crunch, the AI data center boom – much has happened, the game has changed and investors are thinking very differently about climate than they did just a few years ago. Three expert climate finance advisors who have worked in climate finance for decades set out to understand what has changed in climate investing. Dan Firger, Will Coleman, and Bill Tarr are highly respected thought leaders and strategic advisors working with large family offices, foundations and prominent climate investors. They teamed up and interviewed over 150 investors and experts to develop Climate Capital Reset Project, a detailed account of the new thinking defining this new era of climate investing. We spoke about the trends reshaping climate finance today, emerging dynamics, recommendations for capital allocators, considerations for philanthropists, and much more. Dan, Will, and Bill's report will likely be one of the most influential pieces written on climate finance this year. It's already the basis for closed-door consultations and convenings with prominent investors, and our conversation shed incredible light on the new paradigms already driving climate finance today.

What if the fastest way to level up your income, mindset, and quality of life… was simply changing where you live? In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down the power of geographic arbitrage and mental resets—and how your environment can directly impact your success. Too many entrepreneurs try to outwork environments that are holding them back. But the truth is, your surroundings—your city, your network, and your daily lifestyle—can either accelerate your growth or keep you stuck in the same patterns. Paul explains why relocating isn't just about lifestyle—it's about proximity, opportunity, and creating a space that forces you to evolve. In this episode, you'll learn: Why your environment plays a major role in your income, mindset, and growth How geographic arbitrage can improve both your financial position and quality of life Why proximity to high-level individuals helps you level up faster How changing your surroundings can spark creativity, clarity, and better decision-making Sometimes the biggest breakthrough doesn't come from working harder—it comes from changing the room you're in. Because when you upgrade your environment, you upgrade your standards—and your results follow. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Would you move abroad to reach FI faster? That wasn't Brooklin Nash's original goal when he left the US and began freelancing from afar. But now, years later, he realizes how much of a leg up he has financially by going all-in on “geo arbitrage.” He's saving a boatload in Guatemala, paying less to live the life he loves, and enjoying a tiny tax bill. Now in his mid-thirties, he's already Coast FIRE and works when and where he wants. But Brooklin's money story didn't start so stable. Being raised in a home with “risky” finances, to say the least (pyramid schemes, gambling, etc.), left him scarred and constantly worrying about keeping enough money in the bank. Thankfully, he changed his ways and realized that making money, rather than just saving every cent, was crucial to becoming financially free. He's paid off a significant sum in student loans and did it all while making a very meager income. Then, he scaled from freelancing abroad to building an entire business, making a phenomenal income while living in a low-cost-of-living area. He's living his dream life outside the US, making more money than Americans at home. Imagine what THAT can do for your FIRE number!  In This Episode We Cover Using “geo arbitrage” to save more, invest more, and lower your cost of living  An almost unbelievable income tax exclusion Americans abroad can access  How Brooklin paid off $80,000 in student debt (even on a lower income) Turning your freelancing work into a full-blown (and VERY high-paying) business  Why the optimal FIRE lifestyle may actually include working a few hours a day  And So Much More!

In commodities, the lowest cost producer or shipper is king.This in turn drives siting assets, determined by human factors such as cost, legal and tax regimes and geographic factors like proximity to rivers, coasts, production and markets. However, today the world is becoming more volatile both in weather events and in policy. And in fact locations a few miles apart can have very different risk profiles – with those choosing wisely outstripping competitors as crucial times of disruption.  And those risks are now being mapped down to the precise GPS coordinates.

A Houston area library apologizes after it allows a convicted child sex offender to entertain children at Drag Queen Storytime. New Zealand threatens more than a decade in prison for anyone possessing video of mass shooting, mom sues parents accused in college admissions scams for $500 billion dollars, what is geographic arbitrage?, and the IRS issues a warning about a new scam.

In this episode, Emily interviews Dr. Amanda, a tenure-track professor at a small college in the Midwest. While a postdoc, Amanda listened to career advice from R1 university faculty, but ultimately decided their path was not for her. Instead, she employed geographic arbitrage to maximize her academic salary while minimizing her cost of living. This choice enabled her to quickly pay off her student loans, and now she is considering buying a house. Amanda gives great career and financial advice and encouragement to current graduate students and postdocs, particularly emphasizing the importance of deciding for yourself what your career and personal priorities are.

It is a very special day at the Hippocratic Hustle, as I interview our first ever male guest! He is one of the superheroes of physicians and finance. Please welcome, Physician on FIRE, the anonymous anesthesiologist who started the very popular blog by the same name.   What exactly is F.I.R.E.? How can we calculate our annual expenditures? What about projections and inflation? What should we do about those pesky student loans? How can we double our money? How long will it take me to really be able to retire? So many questions! Not to mention, when we talk about finances, it's all quite confusing.   Have no fear though, Physician on FIRE (PoF) shares his extensive knowledge on topics about financial independence (F.I.) and retiring early (R.E.). He is an anesthesiologist who attained financial independence at the age of 39, and now teaches other physicians to do the same. Listen in as PoF and I discuss why we should consider F.I, the benefits and tips to achieving it, and if your goal is to retire early, we have you covered there too!   In this episode, you will learn: What exactly is FIRE and how you can apply it to change your life Why you should consider financial independence early in your career and start investing now How you can determine your annual expenditures now and in the future How much you really need to save to live the lifestyle you want in retirement What is the rule of 72 and how will it help you achieve financial independence How PoF's methods can help you achieve true work-life balance as a physician How can physicians specifically work towards attaining FIRE Should you pay off those low interest school loans and mortgages now What does R.E. (retire early) exactly mean for Physician on FIRE. What exactly is Geographic Arbitrage and how you can use it to your advantage   Links we discussed in the show: If you want to know more about Physician on FIRE, you can visit his website. You can also follow him on Facebook and Twitter. Also, join the online community Physicians on FIRE.

You have to keep track of it.” “It's about having the ability to live the way you want to - with or without the paycheck.” “Financial independence affords physicians the opportunity to practice medicine the way they want.” “I think retirement is when you don't rely on income.”   Special thanks to this week's sponsors: Larry Keller from Physician Financial Services and the Brand New Course from the White Coat Investor, Fire Your Financial Advisor!   Thank you for listening to the Hippocratic Hustle!

It’s been a while since I posted a new Financial Independence Podcast episode but I’m excited to share one with you today! Mr. and Mrs. 1500 from 1500Days.com joined me live at FinCon in Dallas to interview the Physician on FIRE! We sadly only had 25 minutes to record so it’s a short interview but it’s a fun one. If you ever wanted to hear Mrs. 1500 rap, this episode is definitely for you :) And if you ever wanted to hear what a podcast sounds like when two out of the three hosts are ridiculously hungover, this one is also for you (see if you can figure out which host is the sensible one). I’ll be back to my longer, more in-depth interviews soon but for now, I hope you enjoy this wild and entertaining conversation with the Physician on FIRE! Highlights: How to separate your identity from your job Using geographic arbitrage to spend less while getting paid more (without ever leaving the United States) How to deal with sunk costs What it’s like finding FIRE after already achieving financial independence Plus, an amazing (and original) gangsta rap verse performed by Mrs. 1500!
