About the Episode
LifeBlood: We talked about becoming your own banker, wanting solutions outside of traditional stock market investing, being a good steward of your money, and finding financial freedom.
We discussed Nick’s career path flying 747s all over the world, getting laid off and exploring new options and alternatives, learning about passive income and tax strategies, and voraciously consuming as much new learning as he possibly could.
We talked about discovering Infinite Banking and becoming fascinated by it, learning and putting into practice, and learning how to effectively leverage money to purchase real estate and make other investments.
We discussed the important distinction of “who” versus “how,” how to fail forward, the importance of digging deeper and going beyond surface knowledge, and why you should always ask yourself “compared to what?”
We talked about the value of mentorship, figuring out what you want to do and finding someone who’s already doing it with Nick Kosko, Economic Strategist, former commercial airline pilot, who’s focused on creating financial freedom through investing in opportunities outside of the traditional places.
Listen to learn why it’s important and worthwhile to dig deeper into any subject matter or area of life that you’re curious about or confused by!
