Men of The Forge

In this episode we talk to former U.S. Navy Seal Shawn Ryan about what it means to Vigilant. Shawn started a company called Vigilance Elite, and its exploding. He has been sharing his knowledge on social media and on the range since he finished 9 yrs of contracting with the C.I.A. Its safe to say he’s an expert on the matter. We will definitely be asking him back on the podcast! We barely saw the tip of the iceberg in this one, there will definitely be more to come!

Struggle is something that we, as men, must not avoid.  This episode talks about how struggle is part of the foundation of success in life.  As we struggle, we gain knowledge and experience and failure is part of growth as well. We must not skip the struggle to gain a foundation of success.  In this short podcast you will gain the basic premise of why struggle is important.

You toss, you turn, you can barely sleep.

Taking a loss or struggling financially can rock a man's very soul. Investing is no different. The fear of losing money, for example, is one of most common inducers of stress. This week, Jon and Ryan talk about an Investment that will make you more confident every time you make it. An Investment with a return like no other.  An Investment that will pay out on a daily basis and for years to come...........We talk about the investment of YOU.....
