Episode notes
ADVICE

Protect Cash With FDIC Distribution

  • Do protect large cash balances using programs that disperse funds across many banks to remain FDIC insured.
  • Do research CDARS-style services (one statement, multiple banks) to avoid uninsured bank exposure.
ADVICE

Use Buckets For Liquidity And Growth

  • Do split money into buckets: a few years of cash, long-term growth investments, and a separate bucket for big goals or philanthropy.
  • Do keep a short-term cash reserve to avoid selling investments during market dips for planned purchases.
INSIGHT

Plan Life Design, Not Just Finances

  • Consider how your days and identity will change after exiting a business instead of just the finances.
  • Replacing work with projects like real estate or part-time ventures can prevent post-exit emptiness.
