Make Money with Alternative Assets Like Fine Art


Listen Later

Clare Baukham is a global wealth architect, alternative investment curator, and creator of the Billionaire Women platform who helps clients go beyond traditional portfolios into higher-upside asset classes like blue-chip art. She rose as an award-winning financial advisor in Canada before expanding into media as an executive producer on TV series about wealth, power, and business, and eventually built her own firm around the idea that wealth is identity, structure, and seduction.

On this episode we talk about:

  • How Clare went from a family machine shop to floral design, acting, professional options trading, and finally top-tier wealth planning.

  • What she learned shadowing one of Canada’s leading advisors and later a billionaire mentor—then why she left the traditional bank-controlled model.

  • Why she believes budgeting alone won’t make you rich, and why most households need “alpha” (high-upside) bets alongside safer “beta” investments.

  • The logic behind using fine art as an asset class, including examples of paintings appreciating from a few million to tens of millions of dollars.

  • How her team acquires, stores, and plans to tour a curated collection, while allowing investors to buy fractional ownership instead of full pieces.

    Top 3 Takeaways

    1. You don’t need to reinvent the wheel to build wealth. Attach yourself to people who already have the results you want, copy their playbook, and then adapt it to a vehicle you actually care about.

    2. High-net-worth investors think in “alpha” and “beta,” not just savings accounts. A small, risk-tolerant slice of your portfolio in alternative assets can meaningfully accelerate your path to freedom.

    3. Alternative assets can be both financial and lifestyle plays. For the right investor, owning a fraction of museum-worthy art (instead of more index funds) is as much about story and identity as returns.

      Notable Quotes

      • “You’re their trophy—they want you to win so they can say, ‘Look what I can do.’”

      • “Most advisors white-knuckle market crashes. I wanted clients positioned to want the crash because everything’s on sale.”

      • “You don’t have to reinvent the wheel. Take the billionaire’s blueprint and lay it over something you actually believe in.”
