AJ Osborne Podcast

This is a special episode to me, everybody. Today we're talking with my dad, Ron Osborne, about his background and history. He comes from what we call extreme poverty, and he had to work and intentionally change his circumstances to create a better life. 

We are also celebrating Ron's new book, The Right Kind of Rich, where he dives deeper into the topics discussed in this episode, and more about his journey out of poverty. Check it out here:

Is it possible to retire in just ONE year? This is a lofty idea and aspiration nearly no one believes is possible. But in reality, it's an infinite array of possibilities. 

In this episode, we're talking about hustle culture and the difference between keeping your head down and working versus being focused and having strategies in place. How you treat the inherent opportunity cost - how you spend your time - can help you achieve your goals or put you behind.

Are you asking questions like, "How do I take action? What do I invest in? Are my skills and qualifications up to par to what is needed to achieve such high and lofty goals?" 

Are those the RIGHT questions to achieve your goals?

The markets are exploding. Stocks, real estate, crypto - it's all crashing. It's a very scary and confusing time, and risk is piling up. 

We're addressing that today. It's important to be thinking about these things all the time and keeping an eye on the potential impact to you. Asset valuation is more complicated than ever, and the future we expected 6 months ago is not what it is now. 

Should you be investing during a time where people are defaulting, rates are going up, and returns are shrinking? 

This is our 200th episode. Thanks so much to all of you guys for tuning in and supporting what we do!

Event-based investing is not only scary, but dangerous. Is your investment - like a stock or a property - contingent on the SALE of that asset? If so, how do you know what your returns will ACTUALLY be and where they ACTUALLY come from? 

Nobody has a crystal ball into the future. There are common metrics like expense ratios and ROIs that help us gauge how much an investment is worth. But are you filling in your equation with facts, or speculation?
