The Biggest Mistake High-Income Investors Make

How's it going everyone and welcome to a special solo series of well-strategy secrets of the ultra-wealthy I'm your host Dave Wulcott

We get a lot of the same questions from our investors about infinite banking, tax efficiency, asset protection, strategy stacking, and how to actually build wealth outside of Wall Street

And we get it, we know you're busy, so in this series I'm breaking down complex well-strategy topics into short tactical episodes

that you can actually use to build legacy wealth

Whether you're just starting your journey or fine-tuning your portfolio, these episodes are designed to give you high impact insights in just a few minutes

So let's dive in

So essentially really the vision right with the mastermind and family office is really to change the way you think about and create wealth

So that you can really live your best life right because we know that that's completely possible

But there's a lot of things out there that are tugging on us to kind of pull us backwards

So how are you going to know that you're tracking, you know, you're making progress?

One of the things that I learned you guys may or may not have heard about this

But I just can't tell you how much it's true

It seems so conceptual to me the first time I heard it, but your net worth is literally equal to your

Actually your financial IQ

Plus your relationship capital. This should be IQ here. So

You know, it's what you know

Tied with the people you know

And it's amazing the moves the chess moves. I've seen people make based on a new relationship

A new opportunity

You know that can literally 10X your position by one move. I love how Peter DiAmandas

He talks about having a massive transformational purpose

So what is that thing that gets you out of bed in the morning completely

Fascinated and motivated motivated about completely taking on the world, you know like what is that and then let that

be your guiding principle and so as you think about these things also

When you ask a question think about just keep drilling down keep asking the question why

Until you can't answer it anymore and that's actually your answer

So why are you searching freedom and then why do you want security? I think is another one, right?

And you know for the coach folks out there. There's you know the exercise of DOS dangers opportunities and strengths and

You know the dangers you know we all think about financial security all the time

That's because you have some dangers in your life

And the freedom is really all about opportunities and the reason why those actually you know drive us so much is

Because it's because of the psychology as humans were either

You know we were hardwired to be afraid of things and to sense danger

And then we're also seeking opportunities

So if you can get clear on that it can it gets really powerful this type of thinking I've found has been very challenging

because

Luckily we're in a room where everyone understands this but not but as soon as we leave this room

whether it's you know

Friends family colleagues so many people just don't get it so you're going against the 99% right and most people

You know just I think wealthy is portrayed as you know people buying expensive, you know cars and flash and things like that

But we know it's all about building legacy wealth

Creating assets that cash flow also having really clear values is really super important and by the way this is I mean

You know hundred million dollar five hundred million dollar families. I mean this is what they're focused on like values are driving

Everything as part of their dashboard and their compass also in terms of what's wrong with traditional financial planning

And I have yet by the way to have anyone prove me wrong on this and I would love for someone

You know, I'd love to get enlightened

But what I've found is this accumulation theory that typical financial planning talks about which is you know

I'm going to work 40 years save up to this number and then have some kind of retirement right

That what that does is it completely creates scarcity because you're living for the future

You know, but you want to actually live in an abundance mindset and live for today

The other thing is you know, they model out your retirement money for only living until let's say you're modeled

If you're a male, let's say age 89

So you completely have the risk of outliving your money and who wants to figure out how to create more capital when you're you know 85 or 90

You know, you need to be a plan have a plan in place

Um

So here's some other things also I find this really fascinating

We're also constantly inundated by this one-dimensional thinking

You know, so oh, I've got this great investment or here's a great stock, you know, that's done so well

You know, you should jump into that right

Um, but it's very one-dimensional because if you don't have a strategy

Some people may do well on that product, but but how does it impact you downstream

Right, that's the importance of having a strategy

And then you have to also constantly understand that all of this noise from a 30 trillion dollar financial services industry

Has their agenda and it's built for it's not built for us in this room

It's built for the masses

Right, so that's what they why they wanted to get you to think that way and you know my thoughts on deferring taxes as well

Um, so here. Let's jump into vision, right?

So a lot of entrepreneurs in this room and just like any solid business does the first thing you do is you create a vision

You have a mission statement and you have values that really support that because that's what's gonna

You know be your guiding compass on this journey and

It's really about goal setting right now as as you kind of think about again

Um, that wealth motivator in those different areas in your life that you know are either lacking or you know doing well

What can you do to kind of reinforce that

Um, now we have kind of more a clear vision of where it is that you want to go

Um, and by the way, I mean the the what you're producing here

The key aspects of this vision are going to go into your wealth dashboard

So this is going to be that guiding compass where you can always fall back to you know your values and your mission statement

And it can be kind of fresh in front of your mind and

The idea with this is that's that's really interesting is you've got to start doing exponential thinking

You have to start thinking about where you're going to be way in the future and not thinking about the how

Right in the linear places

Because when you start aligning your chessboard with these really big moves and these things we're talking about in the strategy

You're going to watch things magically appear in front of you

If I asked you when you were 20 that you would be you would have exited a business and you would be a multi-millionaire

At the age you are now

What would you have said you were like how the hell am I going to get there right so

A lot of this is really mindset and you know, I know everyone's read the books like think and grow rich and all this stuff

But it really works you really have to have the mindset that's really big

Even though we don't maybe necessarily know how to get there
