In this episode I talk with writer, philosopher & cryptographer Paul Rosenberg about the current state of the western world, history of the fall of empires and how a common theme in most was the existence of parallel societies that often thrived as a result of the collapse of the empire in which they lived. Let's see if we can draw some parallels and advantages to our lives by looking to the recent past.
There’s a fine line between wholesale embracement of a failing system, and the extreme decision to escape it. Much like mainstream thinking vs. conspiracy, the truth lies somewhere in the middle. In this (and the next few episodes) I’m going to talk about trying to find balance between two systems – the current Western banker backed economic system, and what could become a new and somewhat better system for us all.
In a world of bankers who wish to enslave you from the ripe old age of 18 until the day you die, there’s a time when we have to say enough is enough. On this episode I sit down with Garrett Charity, attorney at McCarthy Lawyers and we learn the “inside baseball” of debt negotiation and elimination, and talk about how his firm reduces or even eliminates student loan and credit card debt for their clients.
At whatever stage one is at in one’s life, knowing that we all have an expiration date is a constant consideration in all things that we do. Yet few of us actually see the forest for the trees in our lives, and our planning is often done reluctantly rather than strategically. In this episode I’m going to attempt lay out the facts of life expectancy and how the current planning of the financial services industry & government policy needs a serious amount of rework.
We live in a time where out of control government spending and tax policy reminds me of growing up in business in the 1980s in Australia – when taxes were mega high, interest rates over 20% for a home mortgage and we learned to build a quality life while being poor. Today is much the same, yet we are not seeing things for what they are and we all fall victim to that mistake. In this episode I will explain the social & financial climate we live in, the massive risks and how you can get out of the blast zone of high inflation, high taxation and be unconstrained.
A technique I have used for years that has helped me become unconstrained is to compartmentalize my expenses. In this episode I will explain what this means, how to use it to your advantage and the organic ripple effect it has to becoming financially sustainable and unconstrained.
We all go through transitions during our lives. Whether it is going to college for the first time (either as a student or as the parents of the student), moving out of the house into our first place, moving due to a job, a job loss, marriage, divorce, economic hardship or economic wins, leaving employment, self-employment, retirement, financially free…. It is all about transitions. In this episode I want to talk about how to cope through transitions and what often are the side effects and underlying issues at stake.
Recently I was being interviewed on another podcast where the question came up, "Myles, what do you think was your biggest failure?". After contemplation, I've come up with the true answer, what it was, how to fix it, what I did and how to avoid it in the future.
Gary Collins from thesimplelifenow.com joins me on this episode as we talk about how we can all live a better and more simple life by following his principles of the "3 legged stool" of success. Gary's story is amazing and I hope you enjoy his wisdom on this episode.
When Forbes magazine state that 78% of United States workers are living ‘Pay check to pay check’, it should be a wake up call to all of us. What we are doing with our lives and our finances isn’t working. Yet the vast majority blindly go back to the regular 9-5, celebrating that they have employment. On today’s show I’m going to show you just how much money you are probably losing having a job, and maybe it should be a time to rethink what we consider a normal path to success in the 21st century.
