Old Wealth, New Wealth, True Wealth returns to the fundamentals of building freedom—and proves that wealth-building has nothing to do with age and everything to do with mindset, mentorship, and action. Recorded live at the New Orleans Investment Conference, host Nathan Barkocy sits down with Deven Wohlwend, an 18-year-old real estate investor who started investing at age five (yes—five) and entered real estate at seven.

Deven breaks down the core principles that accelerated his results: thinking creatively when traditional paths (like bank loans) aren’t available, executing consistently instead of collecting “shelf help,” and using early failures as a blueprint for future wins. He shares the real lessons behind his first investment—why partnerships must be value-for-value, why hiring professionals beats cutting corners, and how long-term planning and delayed gratification create compounding outcomes.

Nathan adds a powerful framework from his work on Five Gears of Wealth—moving from financial illiteracy to an abundance mindset, building financial literacy, securing mentorship, and ultimately taking decisive action. Together, they connect real assets, real relationships, and “Main Street investing” to the outcome most people actually want: time freedom—the ability to choose how you live, work, and lead.

Deven J. Wohlwend is a young real estate investor, author, and co-host of The Real Power Family Radio Show, where he shares insights on financial literacy, investing, and family success. He began investing in real estate at an early age and has contributed to books and media that educate others on building wealth through property and entrepreneurship. Deven is recognized for his commitment to empowering youth and families with practical investment strategies and a mindset for long-term success.

In this episode of Old Wealth, New Wealth, True Wealth, host Nathan Barkocy sits down with Tricia Benn, CEO of C-Suite Network, for a powerful conversation on redefining success in business and life.

Tricia shares why true wealth is not measured solely by profit, but by impact, integrity, and the communities leaders build along the way. Drawing from decades of executive leadership, she explains how trusted networks, mentorship, and systems-driven business models create sustainable growth—especially during periods of disruption. The discussion reframes failure as feedback, innovation as a survival skill, and disruption as opportunity for those willing to keep moving forward.

This episode dives deep into leadership mindset shifts, abundance versus scarcity thinking, and why being “useful” matters more than being perfect. Tricia also opens up about legacy, generational wealth, parenting future leaders, and teaching the next generation how to think critically, take responsibility, and build purpose-driven lives outside of institutional systems.

If you believe wealth should create freedom, meaning, and long-term impact—not just short-term returns—this conversation offers a clear framework for building businesses, communities, and legacies that last.

Tricia Benn is a business executive, thought leader, and keynote speaker focused on purpose-driven leadership and sustainable growth. She is the CEO of C-Suite Network, leading an ecosystem that supports C-level executives through strategic networking, media, and advisory platforms.

In this episode of Old Wealth, New Wealth, True Wealth, host Nathan Barkocy sits down with Adam Taggart, founder of Thoughtful Money and former Wall Street and Silicon Valley executive, to unpack what most people were never taught about money, risk, and real wealth.

Adam shares his journey from investment banking and Big Tech to building a mission-driven platform focused on financial literacy, transparency, and empowerment for everyday investors. Drawing on firsthand experience from the dot-com crash, the housing bubble, and decades of market intervention, he explains how passive investing, herd mentality, and blind trust in Wall Street have distorted risk—and why most investors are unprepared for the next major shift.

This conversation dives deep into how to think about capital allocation, the role of financial advisors versus DIY investing, Main Street ownership versus Wall Street dependency, and how to de-risk your financial life through education, goal-setting, and sound decision-making. At its core, this episode reframes wealth not as speculation or status—but as stewardship, sustainability, and long-term resilience built on real assets and real relationships.

Adam Taggart is a former Wall Street and Silicon Valley executive with more than 30 years of experience across finance, technology, digital media, and business strategy. After decades inside the traditional financial system, Adam stepped away to pursue a mission centered on economic literacy, financial resilience, and long-term wealth preservation.

He is the co-founder of multiple education- and media-driven ventures that help millions of people better understand macroeconomic risk, sound money principles, and the importance of living within one’s means. Known for his focus on real assets, sustainable lifestyles, and practical preparation for an increasingly uncertain financial future, Adam combines big-picture insight with actionable guidance.

Beyond his work, Adam is deeply invested in strengthening his local community as an equity investor, board advisor, and volunteer. Above all, he is a devoted husband and father, grounding his work in stewardship, responsibility, and long-term legacy.

Sharon Lechter and Russell Gray break down the real rules of the financial game—why your income matters less than what you do with your paycheck, and how the right mix of assets builds lasting wealth. They compare financial freedom to other forms of freedom (time, choice, purpose), make the case for stronger personal finance literacy for younger generations, and reframe failure as a tool for growth. The conversation also tackles macro risk—what could happen if the debt bubble pops—and why shifting from scarcity to abundance, fear to purpose, and entitlement to empowerment is essential for building the life you actually want. They close with the core traits shared by the most successful people and a simple question that clarifies everything: How do you want to live—and what do you need to build to live that way?

Russell Gray is a financial and business strategist, mentor, and the voice behind Main Street Capitalist, where he helps investors and entrepreneurs make sense of macroeconomics, cash-flow strategy, and real-asset investing. With a background in financial services dating back to 1986, he has consulted with hundreds of investors on practical wealth-building strategy and is the founder of the Raising Capitalist Project.

Peter Schiff delivers one of his most urgent warnings yet. In this explosive episode of Old Wealth, New Wealth, True Wealth, economist, author, and investor Peter Schiff breaks down why he believes the next financial crisis will dwarf 2008, why the U.S. sovereign debt bubble is nearing its breaking point, and why gold is entering a powerful long-term bull market while the dollar quietly unravels.

Host Nathan Barkocy dives deep with Peter on the real forces driving inflation, the collapse of confidence in U.S. monetary policy, and the dangerous misconception young investors have about “wealth” in an era of speculation. Schiff explains why Bitcoin is not digital gold, how real assets preserve value when currencies fail, and what the next generation must understand if they want to build lasting wealth instead of chasing illusions.

If you’re trying to navigate today’s economy, build wealth in your 20s and 30s, or understand how to position yourself before the storm hits, this is a conversation you can’t afford to miss.

Chapters
• The coming sovereign debt crisis
• Why gold is skyrocketing
• Bitcoin’s flaws
• How young entrepreneurs should build real wealth
• Why inflation is nowhere near “under control”
• Schiff’s blueprint for protecting your future

Watch until the end for Schiff’s insights on wisdom vs. knowledge, cross-generational learning, and why the next era of wealth will belong to those who understand real value.
