Instead of hoping the stock market performed, that taxes would stay low, and hoping that his investments would perform as advertised, he developed something infinitely more valuable than hope: Control.

In this episode, Ryan shares his investment strategy and the 4 pillars that you can use to evaluate a potential investment an determine if it is going to bring you the most reliable returns.

Welcome to another episode of the remote real estate investor. Today with me, I've got Ryan Lee with Cash Flow tactics. And Ryan's gonna be talking to us about his background, how he became financially free, and what are some tips and tricks that you can maybe do the same? So let's get right into it.   Alright, Ryan, so you were saying before that you figured it out? Because you had to? And so I'm curious to know, what was it that you figured out? What were some of the tips and tricks and tactics that you figured out along the way?   Ryan: Yeah, man. So again, kind of going back to Rich Dad, Poor Dad, you know, first he like slapped me in the face and said, Hey, you, everything you think you know about money is wrong,   Michael: You're doing it wrong.   Ryan: Yeah, you're doing it wrong. And you're an idiot, right? And then the next thing that he said was, hey, the definition of financial success. And this radically revolutionized my thought process. It's not how much your net worth is, like, at the end of the day? No, it doesn't matter how much money we have, no matter how much income your assets generate. And so I started measuring my success off of how much income can my assets generate? And how long is it going to last? And how predictable is it going to be?   And this really exposed the lie of the 401k. Because even if I had quote unquote, enough money in the 401k, I couldn't get it right, it was stuck, it was gonna be taxable. And I couldn't take it out before 59 and a half. And so I realized, man, that's that's a trap. So I went down the world of real estate, and real estate is the most powerful wealth creator out there. But it's also a pretty dangerous tool, right? And I went into it super naive. I'm grateful that I did it because I made a lot of mistakes. But you know, I went into the game of real estate trying to do it all on my own. Right, I thought may I'm gonna go out and find the property. And then once I find it, I'm gonna rehab it, and I'm gonna renovate it, and I'm gonna put a renter in there, then I'm gonna collect the rent. And I did that three times, right?   And the first time I did it, walked around with my chest all puffed out, right? I'm a real estate investor, you know, and I wanted to tell everybody about it. The second time I did it, I was little bit nervous. And the third time I did it, I almost had a panic attack. Because here's what was happening, right? I mean, every property that I bought, I was actually getting further away from financial freedom. Because I had to find it, I had to renovate it, I had to put a tenant in it, I had to manage it. And man, man, if there's anything that you know about me, I am the worst, the absolute worst property manager in the entire world. And every time my tenant would call me up with whatever sob story they had, I would sob right along with them and say, Hey, don't worry about it, I'll pay your rent for you.    And, you know, this happened for a good six or seven months, where I was just bleeding money. And I was bleeding time. And I realized, man, the only way that I can do this is if I start plugging into other people's expertise, right? I can't try to do it on my own, because I'm losing time that way. But if I can find people that love real estate, they wake up in the morning, they're like, Man, I love real estate, because that's not my definition of financial freedom. I love real estate for what it does for me. But I don't want to do real estate. So if I can plug into teams and people that have expertise in real estate, and finding rehabbing, renovating, managing all of that stuff with real estate, then my life, my life gets a lot easier. And I become the CEO managing to outcomes.   So the difficult lessons that I learned along the way was don't try to do real estate on your own right? Plug into other people's networks and teams and have them do the real estate. And yes, they make money. But guess what, I get what I want, I get passive cash flow. And I have to manage outcomes.   Michael: Yeah, that's so good. That's so good. So now having done that three times, and coming to that conclusion of okay, I want to be the CEO, I don't want to be the person in the trenches, so to speak. Do you think that that's a good place to start? Or do you think that people actually have to go through those first three, or whatever amount of properties it takes for them to get that hands on experience to recognize, well, I don't like this, or maybe I do like this?   Ryan: Yeah, dude, that's such a great question. And man, I think everyone has their own individual ways that they learn. Some people are really good by learning from other people's people's experiences. Some people can learn from books and podcasts, some people just learn by getting their hands dirty. So understand who you are and how you learn. But for sure doing it gives you way more appreciation. Because if I hadn't done it, then I would come to turnkey providers and other people that are doing real estate. And I'll probably be a little bit more demanding because I didn't understand the process. I don't understand what's required in the work involved in it.   So me doing it. That gave me two perspectives. It gave me a very, very clear understanding of what I don't want. I don't want to be a real estate professional. But it also gave me a clear understanding of what I do want and real estate was the same tool. It was just a matter of how I decided to pick up that tool. So doing it helped me understand, number one, hey, I can do real estates and I can do it to get the outcomes that I want but I don't have to do the do all of the work along the way.   The next thing that it helped me understand was, you know, I lived in at the time I lived in a still do I live in an area where it's a lot harder to do single family homes, I mean, the median price where I'm living, man, it's several $100,000. And if I wanted to buy real estate and start in my geographic area, I'd have to have a lot of money set aside to be able to do that. So also, not doing it on my own allowed me to plug into networks like yours and say, look, what if I bought properties in the Midwest? What if I live where I want to live, but I buy where the numbers make sense. That opened up a whole new game for me. And that allowed me to start moving start from you know, rather than moving slow, and what's in my geographic area, it started to open up my expansion to say, what if I look in other areas and buy the right property in the right area with the right team?   Michael: That's so good. So something that I hear all the time inside of Roofstock Academy and from this other investors investors in general is how do you do in remote investing? I can't make that mental mindset. I'm too scared to give relinquish control. So I can't go touch and see it and check it on my property managers was it sounds like the drive for you. Because the numbers made sense overcame that fear and relinquishing control is that what happened for you?   Ryan: To a certain extent, you know, I still am kind of a control freak. And so every area that I bought real estate, I've gone to that area, right, I've literally gone to the area and that way, like it's kind of fun, because if I go out there, for example, Memphis, Tennessee, you know, Memphis, Tennessee, when I very first one out there, I had no idea I did my research beforehand and kind of understood, maybe some of the areas in that area that I wanted to invest in, took a plane out there, rented a car, got a map, and I just drove up and down the neighborhood's up and down, up and down. And I circled areas I liked, I exed the ones that I was nervous about. But here more than anything, is what I did, I developed a relationship with the team that I wanted to use out there. Because at the end of the day, real estate, isn't the objective real estate is the tool to exchange, that's all it is, I own real estate, someone is going to want to rent that real estate. But if I'm going to do it passively, I have to develop a really good relationship with my property manager, the people who are finding the properties for me my acquisition is and so that's what I spend, spent, and still do spend most of my time on, is developing really, really good relationships, one of the best things I've done, it's such a small thing, but man, it makes the biggest difference.   You know, in in the team that I use instead of Memphis, for example. I've been using them for almost a decade now. And I've been out there a couple of times, I did most of my research in the beginning. And now I can manage it from my, you know, quarterback here from Utah. But every single year, I send them a Christmas card, and a gift card. Right, Tom, thank you for all the work they've done for me for my life for my family, I send them a picture of hey, this is what you're helping me do and accomplishments out of my life, please go enjoy dinner on me, right. And it's such a small thing, dude, it's such a small thing. But as I invest in relationships, man, I can't tell you how many times that team has gone above and beyond for me. I mean, they out of all the people, they manage properties for guests whose name they know, they know my name, right? Because I invest in that relationship.   On the other side, if I didn't appreciate that team, you know, when I had a vacancy, like, I might just call them up and shoot them out and yell at them, and, you know, cuss at them. And you know, that in the long run is not going to help me be free, that's not going to help me get what I want. And so having done it myself, I understand the difficulty, the brain numbing work that that takes and the expertise that's required to do it the effectively and do it the right way. So I appreciate it more. And I honor the people that I work with.   Michael: It's such an important you makes I do the exact same thing, actually, for all of the professionals in my life, all the teams I work with, I do the exact same thing. And you're right, when when I pick up the phone and give them a call, they also pick up the phone and they know who I am, and they appreciate. So I think I think that's a great tip. If nothing else to pour into the relationships that you have in your life, whether it be your lenders, target managers, insurance reps, whoever, but just show them that you care. So when you're thinking about them show the value the relationship I think goes a long way.   Ryan: Man it so does, because at the end of the day, here's the crazy part, a house, a rental property has never written me personally a check. It's a person that's written me that says that, yeah, the house is just the lawyer. It's just alert to get people to do business with each other. And so at the end of the day, remember that you're investing in relationships more than anything.   Michael: That's great. That's great. Okay, so we figured out and you figured out that remote real estate investing was going to be the tool that you were going to leverage. So what then what was the next step was the next thing that you figured out?   Ryan: Yeah, man. And here's kind of a funny thing. And I think a lot of, you know, I'm assuming you're probably a lot like me in this way. You know, I'm very entrepreneurial, right? I like I'm creative. I like to see new opportunities and go chase down those opportunities. So in the beginning, I was like, well, if one type of Cash Flows great, what about all the types of cash flow? And so I bought a couple single family homes, and then I'm like, Well, what maybe I should buy an apartment complex. And maybe I should buy a long term care facility and maybe I should buy this and I was looking at everything through the lens of cash flow, which is a good lens to measure success by but at the end of the day, I still I wanted my time. Right. And I forgot that lesson along the way because the reality is every type of real estate is going to require a certain level of expertise inside of that real estate.   And what I found is it's very, very hard to duplicate results inside of multifamily properties inside of long term care facilities that requires so much expertise that it's hard to duplicate those results. And it's hard to plug into teams that do that. So for me, I kind of went a little bit crazy and tried to buy everything. And then I've realized at the end of the day, I'm gonna just go back down and simplify back down to the type of real estate that makes sense for me, single family, three bedroom, two bath Type homes, bread and butter. Because the reality of it is, there's always demand for that type of property always. It's the easiest property for a guy like me just getting involved to understand because man, I've lived in a three bedroom, two bath home, I know exactly what it's like to live there. I know what areas that are good areas, I intuitively know how that works. It's the easiest type of property to get financing for. It's the easiest type of property to scale inside of a portfolio. And it's the easiest type of property to use to become financially free.   So that was really kind of in the mid part of my game plan that was a major lesson learned is not all cashflow is created equally. And if I want to, you know, build a niche inside of long term care facilities, then I need to focus on long term care facilities. But if I want to be financially free, find a niche and get rich in that niche and just focus. So once I learned that once I learned the ability with my personal finances to focus, and it made my life so much easier now because it doubled down and duplicate those results. And the more I focus, guess what the better results I get, the better sophistication I get, the better I become an investing and I can get results fast now almost with my eyes closed because I focus on it for so long.   Michael: Yeah. Oh, that's so good. Get Rich in your niche. I love that. So Ryan, a question for you though, is when real estate investors first start learning about real estate investing. Their purview is kind of like this. And for everyone listening, I have my hands kind of over my eyes like blinders. All we can see is an inch wide. Yeah. But as you become more involved in the space, you start learning about oh, well, I can partner Oh, there's multifamily. Oh, this fixes that all there's a BRRRR. And so how do people know once they've truly found their niche? Or if they've just done something enough times to be good and comfortable at it? How should they know when to grow into something else?   Ryan: Yeah, man, That's a great question. Here's the way I like to look at it. You know, at the end of the day, this kind of goes back to money. And I think we kind of project onto money, all of our hopes and dreams thinking that money is going to give us what we want money will never give us what we want, right money is simply a tool. So at the end of the day, what I had to get really clear on and I still revisit this over and over because you don't find it and then it's that same thing forever. But I had to get clear on what I wanted. Okay, so once I was really, really clear on what I wanted, and why I wanted it, then I had to realize the only thing that was standing in the way of what I wanted and why I wanted it was me who do I have to become?   Okay, so for me, when I first started my game plan, I wanted to have more time, I wanted to have more control of my time. And I wanted to be able to walk away from a corporate job. I've always been the only income earner in my family, my wife and I, when we first got married my oldest son who had the heart surgery, and he was born with just some major complications and requires a lot of attentive care. So from the very beginning, my wife has stayed home to care for our children. I'm grateful for that. But I was put a lot of pressure on me, right. I mean, I couldn't just walk away from a six figure job without having a way to replace that. So I wanted to be financially free. And if I wanted that, then I had to focus on using my money as a tool to get that thing, right to get that thing to get my time back.   Now over time, my WHY has changed, you know, quite a few times, right? I wanted to walk away from a corporate job, I did that it was awesome. Then I found myself I wanted to teach other people how to do this. I mean, I have so many people asking me questions. Why don't I start a company and a business around this? Why don't I build my skills and expertise to teach other people how to do it. And so my WHY has changed along the way. But all along the way. I've been very, very clear on what I want. And when I know what I want, I can go back to money. And as a tool, I can say how do I use this tool of money to get what I want. Now, if I come to the table and I say hey, I don't have enough money, I want to go faster in my game plan maybe I now need to use money as a tool and develop some more expertise. Maybe burr is the right method for me because now I can inject some of my expertise to make more money and accelerate my game plan ultimately to what I want. So that's really for me, I think a lot of us we think money is what we want. Money is never what we want. So get clear on what you want. Then go back to Money and see how money can serve you in the purposes that you have.   Michael: Oh, that's so good. That's so good. Off the Cuff Ryan Lee in the flesh. Love it, man.   Ryan: Yeah, buddy.   Michael: That's great. So right. I'm curious to know, because you've interacted with so many people, you've coached so many people through money mistakes to financial freedom. What are some of the biggest hurdles that you see trip people up with regard to personal finance?   Ryan: Yeah, man. Um, you know, I think the hardest thing for me in the beginning was to realize that what had been taught wasn't just not working. It was dangerous is one of the biggest statements that we have inside of our community is one thing 97% of traditional financial advice is dangerous, misleading or outright wrong. Okay. And once I can look at money through that lens now, our definition of success is financial freedom in 10 years or less. Okay, so Anything that's not going to get me financially free in 10 years or less, if I look at it through the lens of 97% of traditional financial advice is dangerous, misleading or wrong, then everything out there is simply how to make something that's not working a little bit better.   But if I can put down 97%, of traditional financial advisors put it down, and I can look on the other side, the 3%, that is literally the exact opposite. And if you look at every self made X, you know, someone who's become self made wealthy in a short period of time, they haven't done mutual funds, they haven't done 401k, they haven't done diversification a little bit better than the average person, they've literally done the exact opposite. And that, in my opinion, is the first step towards financial freedom. Right? If I can let go of most of the noise and distractions out there, and solely focus on the few things that actually work and develop expertise and a system around those, then I can start to accelerate my results.   So that's one of the biggest things and that's kind of hard to realize whether it was done by deceit, whether it was done by default, whether it's just kind of the social conditioning, I don't know. Yeah, I don't know if there's some grand master plan to keep the, you know, American public trapped. But at the end of the day, once I let go of traditional stuff, and fully said, Hey, I'm going to walk away from average, in pursuit of extraordinary, man, that's what really, really started to open up my path to financial freedom. And so that's inside of our community, we're not for everyone, we're not trying to make you better. We're trying to truly help you rise up so that you can ultimately live free, that's going to require you to walk away from average,   Michael: That's so good. What was the hardest thing for you to spread yourself away from for you to give up from what you'd learned? Probably 97%.   Ryan: Yeah, I think even still to this day, right? I mean, it seems like the world that we live in is becoming increasingly more chaotic, and increasingly more complex, like, if I get on Google, today, I can find the 10 newest, greatest best investments that will make me a multi mega millionaire, but you know, Bitcoin, you know, online businesses, whatever it might be, right, all these different things. And they, they're all they all might be great. Or they all might just be simple distractions, right. And if we look back, historically, from the very beginning of like, economies, what has made people wealthy period, it's always been ownership of land. In fact, the American Constitution, the Declaration of Independence was formed around life, liberty, and property, the ownership of property. And so understanding that, man, if we understand that there's historical background of 1000s of years of success, instead of real estate, why not just focus on   Michael: Why reinvent the wheel?   Ryan: No doubt man, just, like, let go of the distractions. And then here's the here's the fun part. Financial freedom is kind of like a pathway, right? If I can get on this pathway, and start building consistent and predictable results, then financial freedom, unlike retirement isn't a destination, I don't have to wait until one day, I can actually start giving myself permission to live free today. And over time, over time, maybe once I've established a base level of cash flow that I'm comfortable with maybe then I can go dabble in Bitcoin and be a multi mega millionaire tomorrow or not, right. But I've built my financial freedom that gives me the permission to go gamble and play if I want to, because that's what I want to do.   Michael: That's great. That's great. So what's something that you would share with our listeners, one thing that everybody could do today, or starting tomorrow, to start them on the correct path towards learning more about the 3%, or towards learning about what truly is, in your estimation, the way to financial freedom?   Ryan: Cool, cool. I'm going to give you our formula. So we literally have a financial freedom formula. And this is because I partnered with a dude, when I when I first started this, I'm the guy that just goes and does it right. And I kind of figured out from a gut feel more than anything. And then I partnered up with this guy, he came from Wall Street's he literally, this is the funniest thing about my business partner. When he was getting married, when he was dating, he had a spreadsheets, right, and he would plug all of the people that he was dating into the spreadsheet, and he had a ranking criteria in a spreadsheet. And so math helped him choose his one,   Michael: Oh, my god,   Ryan: Math helped him choose which car to buy, Matt helps him, like this guy sees the world through numbers, and I kind of look at them, kind of like Neo in the Matrix, like Neo could look into the world of the matrix and kind of see all the rest of us like, I don't see I see the numbers. So when I partnered up with this guy, he helped bring math to what I was doing, and we use math to clarify and to help us focus. And so we built a financial freedom formula, and it literally gives people a systematic way to move forward. And I'm gonna give you one element of this financial freedom formula, and it's called the four pillars. And here's the crazy part. Every asset no matter what it is, every asset under the sun has four potential ways you can make money. It all depends on how you participate in Okay, so if you want to move faster, instead of your game plan instead of your financial, you know, journey, you need to align your money with assets that give you all four elements in the four pillars.   So let's do a quick case study. Let's take the stock market, okay, mutual funds, maybe I'll buy some stock and Apple whatever it is, and take the stock market and we're going to put up real estate side by side. Okay, so here's the four pillars. I can make money when I invest through appreciation. I can make money when I invest through cash flow. I can make money when I invest through tax advantages or tax deductions. And I can make money when I invest through leverage. Those are the four pillars. Every investment has all four, it just matters how I participate. So if I, as a, you know, just off the streets type of guy, go buy a stock an apple, how do I make money?   Michael: You'll make money through appreciation, you'll make it…   Ryan: That's it. Right appreciation, I buy the stock at Apple at one price, I hope I hold it for long enough. And overtime, it's gonna go up right out. I don't control that outcome. Right, I can't impact that outcome, all I can do is wait. And the only friend I have in the appreciation game is time, how much time has to pass before it goes up enough that I'm willing to sell them. Now, a lot of people got burned in the game of real estate back in 2006, and 2007, because they bought real estate using the same mindset, real estate goes up in value. And over time, it generally does. But sometimes things go down in value, right? So if all I'm getting inside of my investing is appreciation, I don't control it, I have to wait. And I'm just kind of along for the ride.   Now, if I buy a piece of real estate that I'm going to, you know, buy through you guys, and I'm going to have the real estate owned the real estate control it, I can have it go up in value. But more than anything, I'm probably buying it for a stream of cash flow, right? I'm gonna have positive rental income coming in every single month. Now, here's the cool thing. If I take that rental income and put it in my bank account, does that affect the appreciation of the value of the property? No, they're not correlated, right? It can go up in value, and I can take rental income.   And I believe the IRS came the very first statement in the IRS tax code. You know what it is? Everything you make is taxable. Sorry. But then like the 1000s of pages after that, you know what those 1000s of pages are written for?   Michael: Real estate investors   Ryan: To tell you all the ways that you don't have to pay taxes. And the IRS just uses the the tax code as a carrot to incentivize behavior. They know that everyone needs a place to live. So they say, Hey, if you go buy that place to live or rent it to someone else, you get lots of tax deductions. Not not deferrals like a 401k, but literally tax deductions. So if I can own a piece of real estate, I can earn a return through appreciation, I can earn a return through cash flow, and I can earn a return through tax deductions.   Last but not least, one of the most powerful tools and the most dangerous tools is leverage, right? If I want to go buy that piece of real estate, do I have to I don't have to have $100,000 in my bank account, I can, you know, put a downpayment down and go get that real estate, use bank money and get a high enough return to cover my debt, and to still give me a positive return. And so those are the four pillars, cashflow, appreciation, tax deductions and leverage. And so anytime an investment comes across my table, I just get to run it through that lens and say, okay, Bitcoin cool. How do I make money? Oh, I don't get cash flow. Okay, there's no tax advantages, and there's no ability to use leverage. It's just appreciation. And right now that appreciation game looks super fun. But that's the only game I'm playing or, you know, if someone brings me whatever, right, I can just run it through those four pillars and say, Guess what, if I'm not getting all four pillars, I'm not playing the game.   Michael: Yeah. Yeah. No, I totally agree. It's something I've touted for years about some of the benefits and power of real estate. So, between you and me, have you found any other investment vehicle that meets all four of those pillars other than real estate?   Ryan: Yeah man. So everything in our world has a reason behind it. The reason we say 97% of traditional financial advice is dangerous, misleading or wrong, is when I first learned about the four pillars. I was like, Yes, I found the Holy Grail. Now, what are all the assets that have all four pillars and here's the crazy part. The first two we all know about came number one real estate's number two is a business. Now, here's the crazy part came. If I go buy stock in Apple, okay, let's think about Tim Cook, the owner. And let's think about me, I'm a retail investor, I go buy stock in Amazon or an apple. So I'm just getting appreciate right, Tim on the other side, he's an owner of Apple, right? So he gets appreciation, he gets cash flow, he gets massive tax deductions, and he gets all different kinds of forms of leverage, right from people to processes and all that other stuff.   So business and real estate, those are two forms of four pillars. Now the third one is a uniquely designed high cash value life insurance policy. And when I first learned about that, I'm like, Dude, there's no what is crazy, but man, here's the crazy part. Go google it right now. Go Google bully and find out how much money banks keeping these type of policies they keep billions of dollars go Google Kohli CEO li find out how much corporations like Jim Harbaugh, like Michigan, University Michigan, they're number two ranked right now, right? Like Jim Harbaugh when he took the job when he left the NFL to come to coach the University of Michigan, you know how 35% of his compensation was structured, inside of contributions to a high cash value, life insurance policy, oh my god, what the heck is going on? It was nuts. And so these policies This is where politicians keep their money. This is where banks keep their money. This is where highly compensated executives keep their money. It's hiding in plain sight. It's been used for hundreds of years. It's a way to eliminate taxes, get Jay you know, gain, leverage, all of that kind of stuff, but the only three assets have all four pillars are a business that you own and operate, real estate which you have to operate somewhat like a business, and a Vault, which allows you to keep the money that you're making safe from taxes. Oh, we call it a vault, but it's a high cash value life insurance.   Michael: Okay. Okay. Oh, that's great. This has been super, super great, Ryan.   Ryan: Wow, that's so fun. Man. I love talking about this stuff. I do   Michael: That makes two of us make two of us. You also have a podcast, right?   Ryan: We do, man. So, you know, this kind of goes back to we joke a little bit. You know, those, there's three questions that we invite people to ask when they come into our world, I think it's gonna be all about investing in rates of return on this versus that. And it is right to a certain extent, we're talking to people about how to operate a system. But I truly believe that the only thing that's separating you from the reality that you want is you have to become a different person. Right? This is where the idea of rising up came from, right? You've done the best you can do with the mindsets and skill sets that you have your results are the best results that you personally could generate as of today.   So if you dream and see a new reality for yourself, you have to become a new person, you have to develop new mindsets and skill sets to bridge the gap from who you are today. And who you have to become to be a successful real estate investor or to become financially free. Right. And so our podcast more than anything, is designed to help people have a sense of courage and confidence that they can do it that they can truly rise up. So yes, we go through the framework, we go through the financial freedom formula, all that kind of stuff. But honestly, men are our financial freedom formulas boring. Like once you learn how to do it, it's just we tell you push the repeat button, do it over and over and over and over and over again, as simple boring.   So what we try to help people do is generate the confidence to understand how to live a life that matters because financial freedom and this is where I got stuck to. I mean, when I even got into the game of real estate, I still lost my way because I still kept thinking when I have enough real estate when I have enough cash flow that I'll give myself permission. So along the way, I had to learn how to become free how to act free how to use money as a tool, not for one day, but how to have a game plan that's gonna help me get to the results that I want long term, but live a life that matters today. So it's personal development wrapped up in financial freedom all delivered through the Rise Up Live Free podcast.   Michael: Sounds like a personal finance burrito.   Ryan: That is it dude I love, I love burritos. That's exactly what it is. It's a burrito with guacamole. I'll pay extra.   Michael: Oh, that's great. Ryan, this was so much fun, man. If people want to learn more about you reach out to you learn more about Cash Flow Tactics. What's the best Where Where can they do that?   Ryan: Yeah, first off, Michael, before I say that, man, I want to just thank you for what you do. You know, we talk a lot about this idea of being able to plug into teams and networks. And guys, whether you're a longtime listener of this podcast, a first time listener to this podcast, what Michael does, through his company, and through, you know, through the real estate that you provide a man, I think our, our clients are probably about hundreds of properties through you, right. And so we actually did a training probably a year ago, where we actually pulled up your website and show people exactly how to find the right properties, using your your inventory using what you guys do.   So number one, you guys are awesome. And I want to say thank you, because you've helped our people, our empire builders inside of our community achieve their their goals and dreams. So thank you for that   Michael: So glad to hear it. Thank you,   Ryan: All right. And then number two, if you want to get plugged into our game, you know everything for us centers on a game plan, okay, so we talk about the principles, and the principles are universal, it doesn't matter if you're, you know, it's just getting started out, you've been in the game of finance for a long time, the principles are, what the principles are, but then you have to understand how to tactically apply those principles to you using your goals, your resources, your desires, all that kind of stuff. And so, for us, the easiest way to understand what we talked about, is we have a five day five day financial freedom challenge, okay, that will help you understand how to apply the principles to you how to rank your investments through the four pillars, and another thing that we call the core four, and help you see how far or how close financial freedom is to you, and how to apply the 3% formula to your financial plan. So cashflowtactics.com/challenge. That's probably the easiest way for people to understand what we do and how it applies to them.   Michael: Love it. Love it. Ryan. This was really great, man. Thank you again for coming on. And I'm sure our paths will cross again soon.   Ryan: Man. Such an honor. I appreciate you.   Michael: Thanks. Take care. Already everybody that was our episode a big big big thank you to Ryan. This was a lot of fun. He dropped a lot of nuggets of wisdom in there. So as always, if you liked the episode, feel free to leave us a rating or review wherever you listen your podcast. We look forward to seeing the next one and Happy investing

THURSDAY 1/20/22: A reporter gets hit by a car on live TV, and the anchor's reaction is extremely subdued. The show tries to figure out what ‘pushing P' means, but just ends up more confused. The IRS may want your selfies when you do your taxes. Another city council gets pranked.

Emmanuel - I had to do the ID me for the IRS with the facial recognition. It was pretty crazy. What do we say when people say we Catholics worship Mary? Rebecca - Passage in the Bible about intimacy between couples: 'The woman's body is no longer her own,' etc. We are on baby number 5 and haven't been intimate in 8 months. I don't really want to because I am always tired. What can you tell us to help? Denise - Married to a man who is very verbally and emotionally abusive. We haven't been intimate in years. I don't want to have anything to do with him. He moved out of our room. Live in the same house but we live separate lives. Patrick - Was doing deliveries for Amazon as an independent contractor and I have to take a pic of myself before I can make deliveries. Kind of creeps me out.

It's a new year. Which means our favorite thing is coming up...That's right: taxes!Jokes aside, whatever the due date, we ALL must eventually pay taxes. And it's no joke that taxes for freelancers and creative business owners are often more complicated. Last year Amy Northard, CPA, joined Mediavine's Senior Director of Marketing Jenny Guy on Teal Talk to walk us through taxes as a content creator, and how to start off the new year on the right foot. You don't want to miss it! Helpful Resources The Accountants for CreativesAmy's Youtube"How Do I Reach a Real Person at the IRS?" ArticleAmy's Instagram https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-j7YtM9XvA Transcript [MUSIC PLAYING] JENNY GUY: So that's a great answer. But I have gotten word from my team that we just showed up on live. I don't know why it took five minutes for us to get going, but we are just now going. So we were having a fun private conversation just about a minute ago. Guys if you are just-- you're not just joining us. We've been here. But we just got live. So that was a fun thing that just happened that has never happened before. I am here with Amy Northard. She is a partner at Amy Northard CPA, the Accountants For Creatives. And she was just explaining how she works with bloggers. We're here to talk about all things taxes. The question I ask you guys to post on if you're here with us in the comments is, have you already done your 2019 taxes yet? Or are you more or are they wait till the last minute kind of person? And Amy was explaining what it means to be an accountant for creatives. And can you just go a little bit more over about how you do work with bloggers? And some of the specific things that, questions that they bring to you? AMY NORTHARD: Yeah. So we work with bloggers virtually, bloggers all over the US. And we do it through video calls, phone calls, emails, those sorts of things. But we work with them to work on things like cash flow, savings for taxes, saving on taxes-- not only being prepared for taxes, but also how can we reduce that, how much you're paying on your income. So we try to help in all aspects of things related to taxes, bookkeeping, those sorts of things. Because you never want to get to the end of the year without knowing or having an idea. Otherwise, it can be really stressful. So helping them throughout the year, instead of just being that one-- the account that you just talk to once right around April. Prepare people a little bit. JENNY GUY: OK. So we just got a comment from Melissa Greeley Olivieri, I just want to make sure I'm saying it right. She says, no, she has not done her taxes yet. She's in Canada. And this is her first year doing them as a blogger. She's terrified. And she doesn't even know where to start. So we'll get to you in just a minute. But let me start out with this question that might kind of address everyone broadly. Since we're all creatives, pretty much everyone that's watching is a creative in one sense or another, most website owners of their own. Could you tell us any common struggles or mistakes that you see content creators making regularly with their taxes or just general accounting. AMY NORTHARD: I think, two big ones. One is not worrying about your bookkeeping throughout the year, and just saving that for once the year wraps up. And the reason I think that's a big mistake is, like I just mentioned, you want to throughout the year what you can expect for taxes. So forcing yourself. Getting in a good habit of maybe once a month, or at a minimum once a quarter, sitting down giving yourself a chunk of time to get that taken care of. And just kind of like make that the day. You act like you are your business's SEO or CFO. And spend time really treating it like a business. Even if you consider your blog a hobby, treat it like a business. Because the more you treat it like a business, the more you could potentially bring in through that venue.

The Biden Administration announced yesterday it will distribute 400 million free N95 masks to the public, starting next week. They'll be available at pharmacies and community health centers.

Last year, cryptocurrency concerns took center stage in an ongoing debate over the US government's trillion-dollar infrastructure bill. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act proposed a variety of ways to pay for its intended projects, including a heightened focus on crypto tax reporting. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has long teased unified broker reporting for exchanges, meaning entities that fall under the broker definition will be required to report information and send tax forms to the IRS. The infrastructure bill made it official: broker reporting is coming in 2023.  But some are worried the bill's definition of a "broker" is too broad and could encompass entities that can't reasonably report to the IRS, like miners or decentralized finance (DeFi) entities. Key amendments to clarify that definition failed to pass, and it's now all on the to clarify "broker" in its upcoming guidance. In this week's Policy Scoop, The Block's Aislinn Keely dives into the current landscape of crypto tax reporting and how the coming guidance might affect taxpayers. Keely spoke with Justin Woodward, tax attorney and co-founder of TaxBit, and Seth Wilks, Senior Director of SME and Government Relations at TaxBit about: The historical context of the long-awaited broker reporting guidance and why it matters. What will likely be in the guidance and why it's likely to affect centralized exchanges first. When it will take effect and what that might look like. How the IRS is thinking about DeFi and non-fungible tokens.

1099 in early 2022 is a hot topic. It's all over the news and the world is freaking out about 1099s. In this episode, we want to lay the foundation again and remind everyone, whether you're new or old, whether you've been in business for a while or are just getting started, what a 1099 is. We want to talk about what it's for, the basic requirements we all need to understand about 1099s, and when to report them.  Remember, the IRS changes the rules all the time. They send whatever letters they want, whenever they want, and for any reason they want. They have what it takes to take what you have. This includes your sanity and peace of mind, not just your money. That's why you're supposed to always report all your income, no matter how you earned the income or who you earned the income from. The IRS is not your boss. You shouldn't let the IRS freak you out. At the end of the day, when those IRS notices come, it's your responsibility – it's your return, your forms, and your reporting. Tax pros and companies can help keep it all straight for you but, ultimately, you have to have a clear understanding of everything that's happening. At the end of the day, you're going to be the one who has to stand up for it or deal with it.  In this episode, you will hear: The common types of 1099s The role of 1099s The need to report all your income When to report 1099s and why you shouldn't miss deadlines The new law in 2022 related to 1099s Subscribe and Review Have you subscribed to our podcast?

Tax scams are as old as taxes themselves, so are you doing everything you can do to avoid them? In this episode of Retirement Starts Today, we'll explore what the IRS labels, ‘the dirty dozen' tax scams. You'll learn who is targeted by the various scams and then you'll discover what you should do to protect yourself from scammers. Make sure to stick around until the end of this episode to hear what you should avoid doing so that you don't fall prey to tax scammers.  Outline of This Episode [1:24] The IRS has issued a warning to taxpayers [6:10] Protection for taxpayers [9:00] Dave wonders whether he should build his home with cash or use a mortgage Watch out for the ‘dirty dozen' Every year the IRS publishes its list of the 'dirty dozen' tax scams that citizens should be on the lookout for. This year's list comes directly from the IRS website in an article called Americans Urged to Watch Out for Tax Scams During the Pandemic. The article breaks up the 12 types of schemes into 4 categories based on who carries them out or whom they affect.  The scams can be described as pandemic-related scams, personal information cons, ruses that focus on unsuspecting victims like seniors and immigrants, and schemes that persuade taxpayers into performing unscrupulous actions. The IRS urges everyone to stay aware of scams and scammers, especially during tax season. Economic impact payment theft This first category of the dirty dozen is related to the pandemic-related stimulus payments from the government which are still under threat from identity thieves.  Look for these warning signs to spot identity theft scams. Any text messages, random incoming phone calls, or emails inquiring about bank account information or requesting recipients to click a link should be considered suspicious and deleted without opening. Remember that the IRS will never initiate contact with taxpayers by phone, email, text, or social media asking for a Social Security number or other personal or financial information related to economic impact payments.  Be alert to mailbox theft by checking your mail frequently and reporting suspected mail losses to the post office. It is also important to remember that IRS.gov is the agency's official website for payments, refunds, or other tax information.  Unemployment fraud leading to inaccurate taxpayer 1099-Gs Stay vigilant about receiving receipts of unemployment benefits that you did not actually receive since this could be a sign of identity theft. This is yet another way that identity thieves try to steal stimulus payments. Taxpayers should look out for a form called 1099-G which reports unemployment compensation that they did not receive.  If you do receive this form, the IRS urges you to contact the appropriate state agency for a corrected form. If a corrected form cannot be obtained in time for taxpayers to file a timely tax return, they should complete their return claiming only the unemployment compensation and other income they actually received.  How you can protect yourself This year the IRS made its IP PIN program available to all taxpayers. In the past, this program was only available to victims of identity theft. The IP PIN will help prevent fraudulent filings from identity thieves by serving as a key to unlock a taxpayer's tax account. In addition to the IP PIN, the IRS is further working to reduce fraud by strengthening tax software password protocols, asking for driver's license numbers as a way to prove identity, limiting the number of tax refunds going to bank accounts, and making personal information from tax transcripts.  It is important to stay one step ahead of scammers so that you can protect yourself from fraud. Remember that the IRS will never ask you for your personal information via phone, text, or email.  Resources & People Mentioned Americans Urged to Watch Out for Tax Scams During the Pandemic Connect with Benjamin Brandt Get the Retire-Ready Toolkit: http://retirementstartstodayradio.com/ Follow Ben on Twitter: https://twitter.com/retiremeasap Subscribe to the newsletter: https://retirementstartstodayradio.com/newsletter Subscribe to Retirement Starts Today on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, TuneIn, Podbean, Player FM, iHeart, or Spotify

Dave Foster is an Experienced 1031 experienced broker and shares his insight into decades of how 1031 can take your real estate business to the next level. Today, in this video we will discuss commercial real estate 1031 exchange rules. Dave Foster will explain the process of the 1031 exchange. You can tell your opinion about the rules of the 1031 exchange explained. What is 1031 Exchange? If you own commercial real estate property and are thinking about selling it and buying another property, you should know about the 1031 tax-deferred exchange. This is a procedure that allows the owner of commercial real estate property to sell it and buy like-kind property while deferring capital gains tax. A 1031 exchange gets its name from Section 1031 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, which allows you to avoid paying capital gains taxes on commercial real estate when you sell an investment property and reinvest the proceeds from the sale within certain time limits in a property or properties of like kind and equal or greater value. Who is Dave Foster? Dave Foster, Founder, and CEO of The 1031 Investor. Dave is a degreed accountant and serial real estate investor who is a qualified intermediary and consultant for tax saving strategies such as the 1031 exchange and the section 121 homestead exemption. Dave started to fix and flipping in the 90s and realized that about 40% of his profits were going directly to the IRS. Dave tells us about the updated rules and regulations around using the1031 exchange to legally compound your tax interest that will stay with you instead of going straight to the government. Dave breaks down exactly how to use the 1031 exchange in layman's terms. He explains to us how he moved his way from Denver, CO to Tampa, FL over 10 years using the section 121 homestead exemption, so that he and his family could move onto a boat (which was a huge dream of his). Tune in to listen to how Dave raised 4 boys on his boat while investing in properties with the 1031 exchange.

In this episode, we talk about 2022 tax deadlines. Everyone should know when they need to file their taxes and pay their estimated taxes. If you show up with your accountant or tax pro on the day you have to get your tax return done, you're probably already too late to get it done in time. So, today we're going to break things down to the basics.  We want to bring out all this information so you will stop acting like the IRS is your boss. We want to protect you in a way where you don't overpay and know where to be and when you're supposed to be there.  If you're a partnership or an S-corp, we highly recommend doing the Profit First. It gives you a tax vehicle to save money on your taxes so you don't end up getting stressed out when payment deadlines come and actually have the money to pay for it.  That's the beauty of tax planning and being in a relationship with a team that wants to be your partner and your protector, which we do at The Bottom Line. We help you see around blind corners and walk through these kinds of things because we see them all the time. Finally, taxes can be very stressful but you shouldn't let them paralyze you. Don't let taxes create blame, shame, or guilt because that will not serve you. You're up to big things and you're doing big things. This is just part of the entrepreneurial journey. Learn as you go so you can streamline things and create processes.  In this episode, you will hear: Estimated tax deadlines and extensions Reasons people file for an extension Why you should get your tax return done Tips on efficiently working with your tax professional Why you should pay attention to January Estimated tax payment dates The employer's tax calendar for W-2s and 1099s Things to consider if you went into a partnership or you turned your Schedule C business into an S corp later in the year Subscribe and Review Have you subscribed to our podcast?

The pandemic has led to a heavy reliance on traveling nurses, whose pay has increased to thousands more than what staff nurses generally make. This begs the question for those nurses: Why stay? The Biden administration is trying to get more COVID relief money to small businesses in disadvantaged communities. The IRS wants apps like Venmo to start reporting businesses transactions totaling more than $600, which adds a wrinkle to the money logistics of many people who have gone into business for themselves.

Do you have gold as a part of your investment portfolio? Several years ago there were loads of infomercials about investing in gold, but after today's retirement headline you may want to think twice about complicated investment strategies. Don't miss out on this real-world cautionary tale which provides an example of how and why owners of IRAs with assets invested in nontraditional means need to follow strict guidelines. Press play to listen. Outline of This Episode [2:32] Don't make this $300,000 tax mistake [5:25] You don't have to invest your IRAs in stocks and bonds [12:40] You don't need complexity to have great retirement investments [13:50] When the first RMD is taken from an IRA is the money considered earned income? [16:08] Does the custodian of an IRA pay taxes directly before distribution of the money? Are you signed up for the Every Day Is Saturday newsletter? If you have been wondering how you can submit your own listener question, make sure to head on over to my website RetirementStartsTodayRadio.com and simply click the ask a question button. Another way to submit a question is by responding to my weekly Every Day Is Saturday newsletter which is delivered every Thursday morning. By joining the newsletter not only will you be reminded that in retirement every day is Saturday (even Thursday mornings), you'll also get links to articles and resources that were mentioned on the show.  Why one couple owes the IRS $300,000 for storing gold in their home How's this for a headline? A Couple Stored a Gold IRA at Home. They Owe the IRS More Than $300,000. Today's retirement headline was written by Laura Sanders at WSJ. The article discusses a scheme that was promoted years back when ads extolled the benefits of using IRA assets to buy silver and gold coins to store at home or in a safe deposit box. However, the IRS has made it clear that there are strict rules that must be adhered to regarding IRA investments, and the couple failed to follow those rules. You don't have to invest your IRAs in stocks and bonds Many people don't realize that retirement investment accounts don't have to invest the assets in typical securities like stocks, mutual funds, and ETFs. The law actually gives retirement plan investors many options on how they invest funds, as long as it's not in collectibles such as artwork. Retirement accounts can hold investments in real estate, litigation funding, deeds of trust, and even cryptocurrency. One thing to watch out for with these kinds of alternatives is if your investment asset isn't liquid you could be in for some trouble around the time of your 72nd birthday when RMDs start. Make sure to follow the rules The article emphasizes that savers who have decided to invest in alternative assets must follow strict rules so that they are not considered self-dealing. Investors who do not follow the rules closely are risking financial catastrophe.
