Have you ever heard of a broke millionaire? It might sound like a contradiction, but it’s more common than you think. In this episode, I dive into the story of individuals who seem wealthy on paper—owning over a million dollars in assets—but are completely cash flow poor.
These are business owners, real estate investors, everyday families whose wealth is locked up in assets, leaving them struggling to afford basic expenses. Meanwhile, the banks keep lending them more money, perpetuating the cycle of being "rich on paper but broke in reality."
In this episode, I’ll share:
Why cash flow is king and how it’s the real measure of financial health.
The importance of getting out of high-interest debt to unlock immediate cash flow.
Why you need to learn how to invest in the stock market—and how to do it better than your financial advisor.
If you’re ready to shift your focus from just building assets to creating real, sustainable wealth, this episode is for you.
🎧 Tune in now and take the first step toward financial freedom!

Wealth isn’t just possible—it’s plausible, no matter where you’re starting from. In this episode, I share my journey of helping people realize their financial potential over the last couple of years. Here’s the kicker: in the past two months, I’ve been hopping on wealth projection calls, and over 90% of the people I’ve talked to are on track to hit $1 million or more by retirement.
Even those who didn’t hit the million-dollar mark? They’re still projecting around three-quarters of a million dollars—and many of them started with nothing!
But it doesn’t stop there. I even dive into kids’ wealth projections. For example, my daughter Rhy is investing just $15 right now, and she’s already on track to become a millionaire. The best part? Your kids can do it too.
In this episode, I’ll break down the three key elements to building wealth, no matter where you are in life. It’s simpler than you think, and it starts with taking action today.

Here’s the kicker:
That $1,000, left untouched, could grow to $2.3 million by retirement, assuming a 12% average annual return. That’s the kind of financial security that can change lives and generations!
