In this episode, Brad and Ryan are going to discuss why "investing for the long run" is a myth and why you are vulnerable to the president sneezing, an IYI doctor publishing a tweet, and the simple fact we are in the midst of a presidential election.

It is up to YOU to make the change and create the lifestyle you seek! Tune into this week's episode to learn where freedom really comes from and what you must do to reach it!

As you're probably starting to understand, financial freedom is so much more than retiring early or living comfortably. It is really about an internal transformation that enables you to rise to your fullest potential and, as a result, live freely. 

The real catalyst behind long term success is changing your identity, the perception of who you are, and how you as a new individual interact with that goal and system. That's what it means to truly become free, and we like to call this the identity of freedom.

Today, Brad and Ryan will be breaking down the "Identity of Freedom" and why they did their annual Rise Up LIVE event. You'll get an inside look at the themes present throughout the weekend so you can begin shifting your identity to better align with freedom.

Key Takeaways:

• Ryan gains the confidence to believe he can become financially free (05:00)
• What propelled Brad to take action (07:35)
• The likelihood of you achieving your goal (11:50)
• The real catalyst behind your success (15:00)
• What we did at the Rise Up LIVE event (19:05)
• The hero journey requires this (24:30)
• How we market Cashflow Tactics (31:00)
• Results from our community (32:50)

In this episode, Jimmy called Brad up after listening to the bonus podcast episode about Trump's tax return, and it got him...heated!

They discussed why they feel an obligation to caution the Cashflow Tactics to remain skeptical and vigilant whenever consuming content from those they consider IYI (Intellectual yet idiots). It's important to first always look at what drives the information, the source of that information, and the angle they're trying to take. This is so important because it's how you filter the credible from the not so credible. 

Brad and Jimmy also talk about why it's important to be open to mentorship and how openness is a determiner of where you are in your growth journey. Tune in to hear the HULK Jimmy rant about the IYI and how Envy is tearing down the news, media, finance, politics, and ultimately this great country we live in.

Key Takeaways:

• Brad’s description of the episode about Trump’s tax returns (03:00)
• Jimmy’s experience with IYI and their behaviors (07:36)
• Brad’s story when he fell into this trap (08:50)
• When an IYI becomes dangerous (14:10)
• We want to caution you about this blind spot (17:30)
• Why it’s so important to be willing to be mentored (23:20)
• Jimmy’s vision for the Cashflow Tactics group (27:30)

This opens up a "New" world of investing that the average investor never gets to see.

And we're going to show you what some of those rules look like. 

No matter how much a goldfish advisor cares about you, no matter how smart they are, and no matter how much they have your best interest at heart, it doesn't matter.  They just can't teach you what they don't know. So tune in because we're going to open up some ideas and methods that the average investor never gets to see!

Key Takeaways:

• Who Kyle and Matt are (04:20)
• Definition of alternative investments (06:45)
