AJ Osborne Podcast

Investing opportunities are everywhere in the US. There is so much access to monetary and other support systems - and the opportunity might not be here for long. 

Today we're talking with Alfonso Cuadra, who is an immigrant, international investor and asset owner. We're outlining some of the different challenges and differences between North American countries and others abroad.

The sacrifice his family had to make to come to North America was tremendous, but is the new opportunity enough to pay that off? I saw this in Brazil, he's seen it in El Salvador. Poverty is real.

So why does the average Joe in America has more opportunity than a vast majority of the world's population?

Entrepreneurs made the world what it is today, will they take us to the next stage?

Just one generation ago, being an entrepreneur was laughable. You had to buy a brick and mortar building, buy inventory, and spend hours in a library researching.

Now, all of that has changed. You can start a website, sell online services, and find answers in a matter of seconds using Google and AI. 

What’s the IMPACT of your life? Of your work? That’s what differentiates a corporate 9 to 5 job and a successful entrepreneur’s business. As you grow and scale, you can leave your own mark on the world, help people, and solve problems. And you can SEE the change yourself. Your contributions are not so far detached from your own personal goals.

The market will either make you or break you. We can't predict when it will or what it'll do, but we can look at the patterns and be prepared. 

In this episode, I dive into my investing thesis - what do I look for in an industry that spurs me to invest? What are the indicators that tell me, is this a good investment or not?

Also, we discuss protectionism. 

Protectionism is the practice of a government supporting an industry when it fails. When the market decides a company needs to die out, it will naturally take place. When the government intervenes, it results in a protected field where failure is impossible.

If you met Elton John or Elon Musk, what would you ask them? 

No seriously, would you ask them about the weather? What their "number 1" tip for success is? What book they would recommend?

Or would it be better to find out who they are as a person, their philosophies, or how they create and manage relationships?

That's exactly what Steve Sims did. He set out to learn why you can work JUST as hard as the "successful" people, but their RESULTS were so much better. He's asking the important questions in the rooms with important people.

And he's here to share with you what he's learned.

The White House announced that Inflation is down to 3% on a month-to-month basis. Real estate prices are coming down, but not at the rate that was expected.

Large hedge funds are STILL pouring millions into the housing market. That goes to say, their strategy has not changed despite the lay offs, interest rates, and high prices.  

In this episode, Ryan Pineda and I discuss this topic in detail. What's going on with this crazy economy?

You might've heard that the top 1% is crushing the other 99% of people. Are the ultra wealthy taking over?

Social mobility is a measure of movement of people within a country’s socio-economic status. It’s an expression of how easy or difficult it is for one to move up (or down) a social class.

That’s why there are sayings like “go to college, get a ‘real’ job,” and “you should be a doctor or lawyer.”

When we look at the laws and regulations built in the US, there is an obvious predisposition against those who do not have money. The law assumes that if you have money, you must be smart. And if you don’t have money, you must be stupid - this is not always the case. But this is what’s inherently taught.

This might be risky, but I’m bringing Bethany LaFlam, my attorney, on this episode to shed some light into the rules and regulations placed on financial freedom.

How do you break into the world of investing and entrepreneurship? Very few people "make it" by having "rich parents" or being "Harvard geniuses." But they make money somehow. How do they do it?

In this episode of Saving Capitalism, we bring together two successful entrepreneurs, Mikey Taylor and AJ Osborne, to discuss their journeys in business, the world of entrepreneurship, and the invaluable role of mentors. 

With Mikey's background being a Professional Skateboarder, he was as far removed from entrepreneurship as possible. The learning curve pivoting from your career into investing and generating cashflow is astounding. It takes YEARS of learning and failing and finally figuring it out. 

Don't miss this episode! Mikey and AJ share their experiences, the lessons they've learned, and the importance of having mentors who can simplify complex concepts for aspiring entrepreneurs. This is how you can avoid making their mistakes.

Capitalism in America is VASTLY misunderstood. It’s often is treated as a political system - a matter of the left vs the right. News flash, it’s not.

It’s also one of the least taught subjects in schools. The education system has failed in an important way: teaching you and me on the basics of the economy and financial well-being. We’re here to change that.

Welcome to the first episode of the Saving Capitalism podcast. On this show, we’rer bringing high-value guests on board not to ask them where they're from or what their best one-liner is - we invite guests solely for the purpose of long-form, high-impact discussions.

I'm your host, AJ Osborne, and by working together, we can be Saving Capitalism and build a better future for ourselves and our families.

"Creating passive income" is a phrase thrown around ALL the time. It's not always so simple. In my experience building businesses and creating wealth, one of the most important lessons I learned was that I needed to understand money. Not just "I bought a fridge for 30% interest, don't do that." But also following up with "Ok, don't do that, but this is the lesson, now go do this INSTEAD."

In this episode, my good friend Jake Fruge comes onto the podcast to talk about how he learned to make money the hard way - and how you can pick up bad habits from the people around you. Your friends, parents, schools, internet gurus - everyone has an effect on how you think about money, but is that actually how you have to learn? Or can you change your mindset and learn a different - potentially easier - way?

We also talk about one specific venture Jake is doing: making money from websites. No, not e-commerce. Not drop-shipping or anything from a 30-day course that promises results but always ends in an unfortunate cliffhanger. We're talking about SPECIFICS on how Jake built passive income - businesses that paid him once he set it up - and how you can do it too.
