Is taxation a form of theft or is it a price we pay for a civilised society? Listen into this episode where Rob interviews Dominic Frisby all about the history of taxation, his thoughts on how we tax now and what he thinks would be better solutions for society.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The evidence is that tax is as old as civilisation itself. There has been examples of voluntary taxation, such as Ancient Greece. But in the modern world it is forced.
• Privatisation of state services isn’t a solution as it is usually a monopoly so prices are high and value is low for consumers.
• The first thing people spend money on after essentials is on self-improvement, on education. The free market provided the means for people to learn.
• If you look at any event in history you will find a tax story behind it, including the right for women to vote; it meant they would then pay taxes.
• Dominic believes that the lockdowns and restriction over covid were too much and caused more damage than they prevented. It’s ruined lives and businesses. However, it has also accelerated some more positive aspects of life, including remote working.
• Dominic said that the world economic forum is awful. He doesn’t agree with the viewpoints that this group project.
• Dominic believes we should replace as many taxes as possible and just have one flat, single tax based around land and transparency. 

BEST MOMENTS

“It was intended for the rich but it impacted the poor the most”

“Fix money, fix the world”

“You’re seeing a new rise of a workforce that’s harder to tax”

“I don’t believe in that Blairite world view”

Join Rob as he talks all about Hear’Say, Fame and Money with Suzanne Shaw. She delves deep into how Hear’Say was both the best and worst thing to happen to her, what have been the highlights of her career since, the many sides of social media and her personal journey to living a happier and more fulfilling life.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Hear’Say was the best and worst thing for Suzanne's career. She recognises the privilege she had and the opportunities it gave her but at the same time there were a lot of downsides. Reality tv bands were brand new and no one knew how to look after them, build a brand and maintain it.
• Hear’Say lasted just 20 months, band member Kim Marsh left six months early. Suzanne said Kim chose to leave because of lack of communication. She felt unheard and so she left.
• Communication and conflict overtook the band. It was an emotional rollercoaster and all Suzanne wanted to do was sing and dance.
• Suzanne was just 18 when she joined the band. She left college early and lived in a mansion and everything was paid for by the record company and ITV. She wasn’t paid much, just £500 a week, but because of her age she didn’t realise how poor this actually was.
• Invasion of privacy by the press was part in parcel with being famous at the time. Suzanne was phone hacked and even had to deal with private investigators. So many things happened then that would not be acceptable or even legal now.
• Sometimes we are giving people a platform who probably shouldn’t have one. We are amplifying people who shouldn’t be role models.
• If you build your own self-respect then that is the energy you will receive back, not just from your own inner voice but from those around you too.
• After Hear’Say, Suzanne had a successful career on stage and after appearing on dancing on ice she managed to land her dream role in Chicago. However, she started to realise that she was suffering from low self-esteem and poor mental health but had to hit rock bottom to start to heal herself.
• Being prepared and organised is the only way Suzanne believes you can master being a mum with a career. You also have to be honest about how life is harder being an ambitious female with childcare responsibilities and try and let go of any guilt. 

BEST MOMENTS

“The day the band split up was on my 21st birthday”

“It was public humiliation[The Press]…the mistakes I was making as a kid still”

“We are paying people who have screwed other people over because we are making tv shows about them”

“If you don’t have your own self respect, you’re not going to get the respect from anyone else”

“I was dying on the insides, I hadn’t dealt with the crap from Hear’Say”

Money, motivation and embracing risk are the three things that Rob talks about in this engaging and enlightening episode. He talks all about what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur, what you need to do to create motivation, learn to love yourself, manage risk and do what it takes to build and live the life you want.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• There are things you don’t need motivation for. Things you are intrinsically motivated to do. Pinpoint what these are and harness them.
• Money buys you health, freedom and choices. So money can help you live the life you want.
• Money isn’t inherently evil or bad. Money just amplifies what it is used for, money can be used, and is used, for so much good in the world.
• Not having the need to please people is good for success. If you can work on any people pleasing attributes and learn to love yourself that will help you on your journey.
• If you continue to solve problems, then you will continue to be rich. Your reward for solving a problem is a bigger problem and this must be seen as an opportunity. If you adopt this mindset then you will be rich.

BEST MOMENTS

“There are things you do that no one has to talk you into doing”

“Money can fuel good”

“If your passion isn’t your profession, then you’re doing the wrong thing”

We are in a cost of living crisis, inflation is high and spending power is low, more and more people are getting into debt. This is the reality, so is there anything you can do and is all debt really bad?

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Rob doesn’t believe all debt is bad. It’s not always a bad idea, you just need to learn which debt is dumb and which debt is smart.

• Inflation is 10%+ so don’t keep your cash in the bank, use it for leverage for good debt such as property investment.

BEST MOMENTS

 “Having cash is dumb unless you want to lose 10% a year”

Join Rob, Shaa Wasmund, Phil Graham, and Jay Alderton as they discuss the big questions in life and entrepreneurship. An episode full of wisdom, heated discussion and a bit of philosophy too!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Anyone who has become a millionaire has done so with support and help. The definition of self-made can be argued as no one ever truly does anything alone.
• People see the end result of a lot of the work from entrepreneurs. But it’s like an iceberg, they don’t recognise or even realise the amount of work that has happened to get to that point.
• Entrepreneurship is still male dominated. This is changing but not fast enough. We need to offer as many opportunities as we can to encourage, inspire and motivate women to become entrepreneurs and be visible too.
• The number one reason you don’t see more women in entrepreneurship and business is because of childcare.
• When scaling, don’t worry about those who leave. It’s not rejection or a reflection on you, it’s just business.
• People aren’t talking about the tax impact of the cost of living crisis. Corporation tax has had a 40% increase and for high earners income tax is one of their biggest expenses too. What impact will it have on the economy if high earners then want to leave the UK because of this high tax?

BEST MOMENTS

“You can’t say I am happy in life, you can only say I’m happy in the moment”

“There shouldn’t be a badge of honour for being self-made”

“Less than 2% of all VC businesses are funded by women”

“When you grow and scale there is more responsibilities and there is more risk but there is also more reward”

“The cost of living crisis affects everybody”

Rob shares a session with his rob.team subscribers all about entrepreneurship and how it has changed. He discusses what has changed in the world of entrepreneurship, how it can be navigated and why you need to have a love affair with money.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• ‘Back in the day’ there was no such thing as a digital asset or a digital creator. This has changed completely. Anyone who puts content online is a creator and it’s one of the best ways to make a living.
• The opportunity to do what you love, make a life and turn your passion into a profession was a fantasy a decade or so ago. Now it can be a reality for almost anyone if they do the work to get there. The opportunities are out there to be taken.
• Rob’s personal mission, is to change the way people think about money. It holds too much guilt, shame and judgement. Rob believes this needs to change and it starts with altering your attitude and mindset towards money.
• Learn to love making money, face the judgement that comes along with that and link it to your values.
• Your highest values are what matters to you most in life. If you can turn those into a product or service that are valuable to people then you will be rich. Anyone can covert anything into money.
• You can learn from those doing well in your industry, but make sure you look with a discerning eye and that you get the full picture.

BEST MOMENTS

“I’m fascinated by this creator economy”

"It's a great place in the world where you can rise to the top and make a living by sharing what you're passionate about and inspiring other people"

“Why shouldn’t you talk about how much money you make?”

“what would you do if no-one would judge you?”

"When you don't know who you are, you copy everyone else"

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Matt says you can franchise any type of business. If you have something tangible that works for you, with social proof and brand power, then you can franchise it successfully.

• When you really know your product and follow your passion, you can use your intuition to market yourself and your business successfully.
• Rob doesn’t understand people who aren’t money motivated. Money gives freedom to do the things you want.
• You have to be very craeful with emotions because they aren’t who you are, they are just how you feel in the moment. Its important to not make financial decisions when you are having strong emotions, especially if you value long-term wealth.

BEST MOMENTS

 “These scar on your brain, just like if you tear a muscle”

“Because I sell well I found marketing to be easier”

“If you can sell yourself, and self-promote you are 90% of the way there, you just need to put yourself in the right people”

“If it was ok to be money-motivated, then more people would be”

“Money flows from those who value it least to those who value it most”

Matt Fiddes is multi-skilled, multi-faceted entrepreneur, often first known for being Michael Jackson's bodyguard, he is a very successful businessman in his own right and created the biggest martial arts franchise in the world!

Join Rob and Matt as they talk about all things business, discuss the many rumours around Matt’s life and of course Michael Jackson!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Michael Jackson was brainwashed as a child, he was taught to not be open emotionally, especially to the public.This impacted how he built relationships and interacted with the world for the rest of his life.
• Michael always kept everyone guessing, with the one glove or makeup or even a mask. He said these things guaranteed publicity, it kept people talking about him. Behind closed doors he was pretty much like anyone else, just normal. Matt found this transformation innovative and exciting. It’s what we now call great branding and something most famous people and businesses do without question. Rob compares Michael and his flare for being memorable was similar in style to the likes of Andy Warhol and Alexander McQueen.
• Michael Jackson didn’t embrace the digital transformation that had begun in music before his death. In some ways, Matt believes he would have struggled with the world as it is now but Michael would at least be able to address rumours head on via social media and speak to his fans directly. Something he was unable to do whilst he was alive.
• A few people know that Michael Jackson bought Eminem’s back catalogue as a comeback to Eminem mocking MJ in his Music Video for the song Just Lose It. This hinted at the ruthless streak Michael occasionally had, further demonstrated by when he bought the rights to The Beatles music and would somewhat taunt Paul McCartney about it.
• Matt struggled in school, he was bullied and struggled with writing especially but rather than letting it hold him back it’s what gave him the fire in his belly to do more with his life. It gave him the hunger to thrive, he wanted to prove everyone and the world wrong.
• Matt knew he wanted to run his own Martial Arts school. Matt took some time to really think about how he could make it work. He knew he wanted to do something different and really disrupt the industry.
• After hearing about how different the Martial Arts Schools were in America, Matt Fiddes saved for a ticket and flew over to go to a Martial Art Conference in San Francisco. After this he was taken under the wing of the American organiser who introduced him to many people and taught him everything he knew. He then went back to the UK and really started change things, including the use of standing orders for paying, providing real education in sessions and adding music to the classes; all at just 18 years old.
• Matt is a great believer in the law of attraction, wherever you put your energy is where you are going to flow.
• You often don’t see behind the scenes of entrepreneurs but the difficulties they face happen often and is all very real. Matt has had to deal with his own share of hate, rumours and negativity.
• 2009 was a hell of a year for Matt. Michael Jackson died, he went through a divorce, his mum died; he ended up being prescribed anti-depressants and Valium. It was a challenging time but he came out the other side stronger and happier by focusing on his next steps and goals.
• Martial arts taught Matt discipline and everything else he needed to be successful. He wouldn’t have found success in the same way without it.

BEST MOMENTS

“I just thought it was normal for18 year olds to be hanging around with Michael [Jackson] and all his friends”

“Michael Jackson is a fascinating person to study because he clearly knew how to get people to remember him and talk about him”

“I wanted to make sure, that anything I wanted my students to do, I could do”

“The bullying, the childhood, lead to everything else. The bullied boy became [a] millionaire”
