Highlights:

• Expertise: This is where it all begins. Developing your skills to a level where you can trade them for high-value equity is crucial. Whether you're in marketing, engineering, or any other field, your expertise is your most valuable asset.
• Equity: Understanding and maximizing equity compensation is key to building wealth. I discuss strategies for identifying valuable equity, emphasizing that liquid, appreciating, and tradable equity is often found in public companies.
• Evergreen Portfolio: This involves building a diversified portfolio that generates ongoing income without depleting the principal. I stress the importance of shifting from making money to managing money and diversifying into private equity.
• Exit Plan: This ties everything together, helping you plan your financial future with clear goals and timelines. Your exit plan should be a living document, adaptable to life's changes, and focused on achieving financial independence.
