EP085 - Don't be rich
18/04/2021 Duration: 57minWe 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.

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.

14/03/2021 Duration: 59minWhen 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.

EP079 - Trapped in the system
07/03/2021 Duration: 59minAfter spending a career building computer systems in software for organizations all over the globe, and being one of the very early career Systems Analysts, I know a thing or two about systems. But what the world has turned into today is a far cry from the mission of the systems I built back in the early days. In this episode I want to explore when systems, automation, AI, robotics, etc. goes horribly wrong, and how it can hurt rather than helps humanity and what you can do to be unconstrained by them.

EP078 - No more middle class for you
28/02/2021 Duration: 45minWords matter. I hear that a lot. But few people realize that removing words from our conversations matter as well. And one term that I think has run its course is middle class. In this episode I want to explore what the middle class is, its hey day, its demise and why it is an impediment to anyone looking to live an unconstrained lifestyle. But also what you should be focusing on to thrive in the future.

EP077 - Financially free at 27 yrs old - Rachel Richards
21/02/2021 Duration: 54minThis is an inspirational episode. I recently had the opportunity to sit down and interview Rachel Richards. At the age of 27, she became financially free after leaving a short lived career in the financial services industry. Her methodology focuses on cashflow generation and smart income, rather than saving millions and investing. She would have told her clients in the financial advisory industry she was in this, but she was not allowed to. So she left, did it herself and now is a best selling author on her story.If you ever thought you were too young or too old to find financial freedom, Rachel's story will prove you wrong.

14/02/2021 Duration: 01h08minThis week no less than 5 people have called me and asked this question... ''Myles, should I buy Bitcoin?''. Well as someone who bought BTC back in 2011 and held it, it has been very good to me. In this episode I'm going to unravel (for the newbies), what Bitcoin and crypto-currency is, why it is important, but also whether I would buy it today.

EP075 - Nomadland - A testimonial for Financial Sustainability
07/02/2021 Duration: 58minIn 2020, I started to hear rumors of an upcoming movie about those that choose to live in Vans & RVs in America. I thought it was some documentary.

EP074 - So you are thinking of starting a business
31/01/2021 Duration: 01h03minIn 2020, we saw an unprecedented number of small businesses closing down due to COVID19. As a contrarian, I have to admit that this is an opportunity for those willing to fill that void. And as more of us have had to work from home, shelter in place, etc., more of us have had more time to think freely and with that we probably came up with some brilliant idea that will change the world. So if you are brave enough to want to go once more unto the breach and start a business, Im going to give you my advice having done that a few times in my life.

The 2020 Debrief Episode
27/12/2020 Duration: 01h43minI prefer not to do these ''Year in Review'' episodes, but 2020 was a unique chance to test the philosophy of Financial Sustainability against a pandemic. I mean it has been 100 years since the last pandemic, so by putting this together I hope it codifies why Financial Sustainability is probably the most valuable thing that anyone could use to get through a SHTF year such as 2020.

EP069 - The quest to be RICH
20/12/2020 Duration: 50minThe definition of rich differs from one person to the next, but I think that whatever your definition, we can all agree that the quest to obtain wealth is worthy.

In this episode I want to explore the concept of rich and break down some false assumptions that people have to help you break free of the shackles of western society and find your path to freedom.

EP068 - Why I'm bullish on (and love) Mexico
13/12/2020 Duration: 01h16minThe first time I ever went to Mexico was in 2007. A friend of mine from India suggested it. It was probably some of the best advice I ever received. Since then I have spent a considerable amount of my time in Mexico, and have seen it evolve over that almost 14 year period. But today geopolitics and world affairs now has it poised for exponential growth, and in this episode I will explain how you can take part in it, if you choose to.

EP067 - The broken college system with Eric Stoddard
06/12/2020 Duration: 01h32minIt is rare to have a conversation with someone who is uniquely positioned to be an adjunct professor in a university and also a business leader in the private sector - someone who can describe the path that students actually find when coming out of college and looking for a career. Eric Stoddard, one of our Patreon community members, joins me to deep dive the misinformation about tertiary education, career guidance and planning and how what we are doing just isn't working for both the student and also the employers.

EP066 - The Chapwood Index
29/11/2020 Duration: 54minIf you believe that you are being lied to by the government, Federal Reserve, etc. and that the real cost of living increases you are seeing everyday at the supermarket, your rent, your health insurance premiums, etc. is going WAY up faster than the supposed target inflation rate, then you will want to hear this episode. We unveil the truth as to how you could be losing half of your entire wealth to the devaluation of the $USD in 5-10 years and if that doesn't force you to rethink your retire early strategies, I don't know what will.
