📝 Alternative investments are more than just a buzzword—they’re a powerful path to wealth preservation and tax-efficient growth. In this episode of the Financial Freedom Podcast, we sit down with Brad Johnson, founder of Evergreen Capital, to break down how high-income professionals can unlock tax-advantaged investing strategies through exclusive opportunities in the private market.

If you're a doctor, lawyer, or entrepreneur searching for ways to reduce your tax burden, grow passive income, and diversify beyond the stock market, this conversation delivers exactly what you're looking for.

Brad shares his blueprint for wealth-building via GP stakes, manufactured housing, and long-short strategies that generate consistent returns and tax-loss harvesting. He explains how his firm, modeled as a “family office light,” offers access to vetted investments that are typically off-limits to the general public.

Whether you're seeking real estate tax benefits, looking to reduce your ordinary income tax liability, or want to understand how Opportunity Zones 2.0 can defer and eliminate capital gains, Brad outlines tactical moves that fit the needs and goals of high-net-worth individuals.

👨‍⚕️ Are you a high earner trying to solve for:

High tax bills with little relief?

This episode connects the dots between your challenges and the strategies that solve them.

💡 Brad Johnson’s insights give you:

Access to private equity like a pro
Proven alternatives to 60/40 portfolios
