E269 Dave Zook - Transform Your Investments and Create More Value By Challenging Conventional Thinking
Must we always challenge conventional thinking? If you believe that everything can be improved, then, we must say yes to challenging conventional thinking. Because change is happening all around us all the time, we cannot always accept long-held conventions as infallible and always effective. At the very least, accepting conventional thinking and practices without question stifles creativity, innovation, and progress. This goes in other areas of our lives including our finances and investments.
Seasoned real estate investor and alternative investment syndicator-operator Dave Zook of The Real Asset Investor joins us today to spur us to think and question conventional wisdom in investing so we can transform our investments and create more value. Discover how investing in other real assets and alternative investments helps not only in diversifying portfolios but in reducing tax liabilities as well. Gain a new perspective on capital raising as well as insights on the current market and economic environment while identifying areas where you can force more value. Find out how Dave took his half-million dollars tax liability to zero in a year. Stirred your curiosity? Tune in now!
