Send us a textOn this episode of The Get Ready Money Podcast, I spoke with Chris Vermeulen, founder and Chief Investment Officer of The Technical Traders about changing the way we think about money and asset revesting.In this episode we discussed:Success is about bringing in experiences from different areas.The importance of having a plan, systems, processes and checklist. The power of starting early, saving at least a little and doing so consistently. Why you need to diversify asset classes.The stock market is a long game. Defining technical trading. The more you know, the more successful you will be. Chris Vermeulen is a financial expert who challenges conventional investing wisdom and believes that investors should only own rising assets. With over 25 years of experience, Chris shares an alternative investment style called Asset Revesting that allows investors to achieve higher returns, lower drawdowns, and profit from bear markets.Chris founded TheTechnicalTraders.com, a platform that provides investors with Asset Revesting signals and education on using technical analysis and position and risk management. He is also the author of the books “Technical Trading Mastery” and “Asset Revesting,” his newest book, which explores this innovative investment method.Chris' investment philosophy is grounded in the belief that diversification and the buy- and-hold strategy can be dangerous for mature investors. Instead, he advocates for only owning assets that are rising in value, selling those that are in decline, and using technical analysis to identify and confirm these trends and price action. This approach helps investors achieve above-average returns while minimizing risk.Connect with Chris Vermeulen:Website: https://thetechnicaltraders.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ruschelle-khanna-lifestyle-for-legacy/YouTube Channel:The Technical Traders: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheTechnicalTradersBooks:Asset Revesting: How To Exclusively Hold Assets Rising in Value, Profit During Bear Markets and Continue Building Wealth in Retirement by Chris Vermeulen and Ashley Mulock (Amazon) https://amzn.to/3BeHH5GTechnical Trading Mastery, Second Edition: 7 Steps To Win With Logic by Chris Vermeulen (Amazon) https://amzn.to/47BfhPqMentioned this episode:Bloomberg Five Things To Start Your Day: https://www.bloomberg.com/account/newslettersSupport the showThe Get Ready Money Podcast and its guests do not provide investment advice.

Financial Fitness for Real Estate Investors: A Conversation with Tony SteuerIn the fast-paced world of real estate, it's easy to get caught up in the thrill of the deal. But what about your financial fitness? This week, we had the pleasure of speaking with financial expert Tony Steuer, who is changing the way we think about money. Tony's insights are as relevant to your personal finances as they are to your investment strategy. His advice could be exactly what you need to kick-off 2025 on the right foot.Tony's Journey:Tony's journey from life insurance agent to internationally recognized financial preparedness advocate and Forbes Insurance Advisory Board member is nothing short of inspiring. This conversation wasn't just about money; it was about mindset! He started by recognizing a crucial gap in the financial industry—a lack of clear communication around insurance products, which leaves many people confused and vulnerable.Debunking Insurance Myths:Tony debunks common misconceptions surrounding insurance, particularly life insurance. He clarifies the following points:Life insurance isn't an investment: While some life insurance policies have an investment component, they are primarily designed to provide risk protection, not wealth generation. (Think of it as a safety net, not a get-rich-quick scheme!)Surrender charges are real: Be aware of hefty fees charged if you withdraw your money before a specific period. These can dramatically impact your returns, especially in the early years of the policy.Your insurance needs change: What made sense at 30 might not make sense at 60. Regularly review and adjust your coverage to reflect your evolving financial situation and risk tolerance.Term vs. Whole Life: Understand the differences to better decide which is right for you!The importance of planning: Tony stresses that a comprehensive financial plan should encompass all aspects of your financial life – including insurance, investments, debt, and estate planning.The Get Ready System:Tony's “Get Ready System,” detailed in his book, The Get Ready Blueprint, is a game-changer. It provides a structured, step-by-step approach to achieving financial fitness. The system uses a weekly calendar, prompting users to tackle different financial areas each week. This is a practical, easily-implementable strategy that's perfect for busy entrepreneurs who need to stay organized. (It might even help you finally tackle that overflowing inbox!)Why a Holistic Approach Matters:Tony emphasizes the importance of taking a holistic view of your finances, integrating all aspects of your financial life into one comprehensive plan. He discusses issues such as:The legacy you want to leave: Most people want to leave something for their children, but don't communicate their wishes to their families.The importance of long-term care planning: As we age, the need for long-term care increases. Planning ahead can significantly reduce financial burdens and emotional stress for both you and your loved ones.The impact of global warming on insurance: Insurance companies are already reacting to the impact of climate change, resulting in increased premiums and reduced coverage in high-risk areas.Humor to Relate To:“Sometimes, landlord life feels more like a reality TV show than a lucrative business.”“You may never need your insurance... but what if you do?”Call to Action:Ready to take control of your financial future?
