How can an 8% return outperform a 12% return over time?The answer has nothing to do with taking more risk, and everything to do with what you actually keep.

In this episode, I break down the concept of Structured Alpha—a framework used by ultra-wealthy families to measure after-tax performance instead of headline returns. Most investors obsess over gross returns, but taxes quietly erode 2–4% of their portfolio every year. Over decades, that can mean millions lost to inefficiency.

You’ll learn why gross returns are misleading, how income type matters more than yield, and how combining income architecture with tax optimization can dramatically increase long-term wealth—without increasing market risk.

We’ll walk through real examples across different portfolio sizes and show how investors with $1M–$30M can systematically keep more of what they earn, letting compounding do the heavy lifting.

If you’re serious about building wealth like a business—and not leaving money on the table—this episode will change how you evaluate returns forever.
