Ryan Sterling of Future You Wealth shares how investors can get on the path toward building long-term wealth by focusing on acquiring appreciating assets, even in times of market volatility. In today’s fast-paced consumer world, it’s easy to become a six-figure earner living paycheck to paycheck. It’s more important than ever to be intentional about how you create wealth, what you value, and to what you aspire by understanding your mindset and motivations. Ryan will share how a HENRY (High Earner Not Rich Yet) can avoid lifestyle creep, how to create friction between impulse and purchase, how to frame the achievement of financial goals in today’s dollars, how to reach FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early), and what it takes to build wealth with conscious intention. Key Insights: Insight into how younger generations think about the traditional investment adviser world. How to adopt an automatic approach to savings and keep your spending in check Will Millennials slow down the spread of mass consumerism? What’s a HENRY and how do you reach FIRE? Buying a home is not the only way to build wealth, and it might not be the best way for you. Don’t compare yourself to where you are today vs. where your parents were at your age. Everyone’s answer to, “What does it mean to be successful or financially independent?” is different. How do you actually get wealthy? Is it earned in a high-paying job or does it come from somewhere else? Find activities that are meaningful and spend your time there to feel a sense of fulfilment, purpose and passion beyond career. What should you do if you have an extra $100K of investible income each year? What should we be doing during this time of market volatility? Ryan’s book, You’re Making Other People Rich, will be out in September.

Interview with Greg Feller, President of Mogo Finance Technology Inc (TSX: MOGO).Making money by educating Millennials/technically literate individuals? That's exactly what Vancouver-based digital challenger bank/neobank MOGO offers. This is an innovative company with a smart and dynamic management team. They think they can dramatically change the company's performance and valuation this year.Great product development track record (Carbon Credit Off-set Card anyone). Now we find out how they plan to develop the share price in 2020.In this interview with Feller, we wanted to get to the heart of MOGO's business plan and understand what sets them apart from the competition. Mogo was founded in 2003 by Feller and his brother, David Marshall Feller. MOGO offers a variety of neobanking service, such as personal loans, identity fraud protection, a cryptocurrency service, credit score facilities (via Equifax), prepaid visa cards and, as of January 2017, it now provides a mortgage brokering service.MOGO was listed in the TSX in 2015, and is also listed in the NYSE. The team is impressive and well versed in this sphere: Feller's background is in technology banking on Wall Street.Feller intends to target young people who lack financial awareness and education. Millennials are digitally minded, so creating a fun, unique and innovative platform, Mogo hopes to provide a better service than big institutional banks. Millennials can take control of their finances, particularly their credit scores, and avoid becoming sup-prime consumers with a mountain of interest payments of future borrowing. We have only a few worries. Is what Mogo does that unique and innovative to make it stand out? Is this all a little bit like a preachy parent telling their kids off? Will Millennials find this platform fun enough to make the effort to move from a bank they otherwise would have stayed with permanently? Is domestic Canada a big enough market, or should Mogo be looking to go international?Mogo has almost 1 million Members, with average revenue of CAD$70 per consumer, per annum. This compares interestingly to credit unions, who make an average profit of CAD$1,300 per consumer, per annum. Mogo believes it can grow to 2-3M members and a CAD$150 average revenue in the next 5 years and is currently gaining 20,000 subscribers per month.The share price has been largely stagnant for the last 5 years, and this might concern some investors. We need to see a catalyst for growth. Feller explains that Mogo's transition from the market perception of an on-balance sheet lender into an off-balance sheet fintech will be the spark that shareholders crave. Perhaps international strategic partners might help things, though Feller is quick to play this down.All in all, we feel MOGO is a great service, but can it return value for shareholders? Mogo has a share price of CAD$3.49 and a market cap of CAD$95M. It's been very static for the last 4-yrs, but Feller says this could be a break-out year if they can be seen as an off-balance sheet fintech. The valuation multiples change dramatically.Company page: https://www.mogo.ca/Make smarter investment decisions, subscribe here: https://www.cruxinvestor.comFor FREE unbiased investment information, follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook:https://twitter.com/cruxinvestorhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/crux-investor/https://www.facebook.com/cruxinvestorTake advantage, hear it here first: https://www.youtube.com/CRUXinvestor

Will Millennials go out and vote?
Join Turg and Randy Z as they share stories about the experiences in our lives that are often unexpected and can sometimes catch us off guard, focusing on the experiences we set out to explore and how sometimes they fail to materialize into anything close to what we anticipated and... Did you catch that moment? If you didn't catch the moment full of laughter at around the 6 minute mark of this episode, it gave us a little glimpse into the true nature of why the guys decided to premier this episode. Life is sometimes unpredictable. What sometimes feels natural to say or do might not always fall in line with what was originally intended. The beginning of the episode - as Randy alluded to - was supposed to start off with a completely different anecdote and yet the more natural progression threw Randy for a loop. When is it a good time to start planning what you'd want to do for the rest of your life? Randy discusses how certain plans he made when in his late teens didn't really end up coming true. He goes on to discuss how the understanding of self was not yet developed. This revelation, as Turg goes on to discuss, doesn't come until much later in life. Maybe this is the secret to living life uninhibited? Do we really accomplish nothing if we set goals for ourselves as children that we might not accomplish as adults? Randy mentions - looking back - he could not have really established a passion for what it was he may have ended up choosing had he committed the goals he set for himself years before. This really brings the efficacy of planing for your adulthood during your childhood almost pointless. In some regards, it only really made a good chunk of the millennial generation shy away from direct planning and more of a "deal with it" attitude. Were we set up to fail by the people installed to help us thrive? Turg brings up one result of the 'First Gen' experience - the lack of experienced insight. He goes on to discuss how most experiences encountered by the Millennial generation during the early stages of adult development were actually half baked in nature. A lot of the support received may not have been properly channeled to help Millennials gain insight or an advantage. At least from Turg's experiences, most counseling and guidance in high school and college were lackluster and ineffective. When reflecting on your journey to now, what helped you gain insight into yourself and your future plan? Randy continues to discuss how education and pathways are very misleading because of the life experiences of those advising them. Were the Millennials left behind? Will Millennials take that as a negative or turn it into a positive in order to help future generations succeed? Does society force us to figure it out because of prevailing traditionalist attitudes? As progressive as our society has become, it still fails to progress in all aspects of social change. Turg remarks how the workplace is still primarily structured to focus on the individual contributor - even in team environments. Turg has faith in the ability of others to change and leverage their potential with the proper leadership to help guide and stimulate that change. Randy thinks it takes a little bit more structure and goal-setting ideology in order to generate trust in yourself. This helps generate opportunities that manifest themselves from this mindset and create success. Are we doing ourselves justice by realigning our goals to someone (or something) else's agenda? Randy thinks that we - as mentors - should be carrying a more communal mentality - however, he practices the opposite. Often, we rely on others to help us identify our purpose in the workplace or community. Do we give ourselves the opportunity to understand what it truly is we want to do? If this is the case, what are mentors really for? Turg thinks mentors are there to help us learn the pitfalls - in failures - that we experience so that we do not make them ourselves.

The future of scripted television - In this episode we get a little deep, as Tim and whatever-his-name-is discuss the future of scripted television. How will these Times of Confusion end? Are we at “Peak TV” yet? Will Millennials watch anything but YouTube? How can shows reach the audiences they need to stay on the air? Are we doomed to a future with scripted material that’s broader and less appealing than today’s series? Then we make up our missed week by tacking on special bonus content, featuring your letters and a special hint of consideration of a possible future announcement from Tim. Host Tim Goodman and Jason Snell.
