Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life with Bill Perkins

Today, my guest is Bill Perkins. He is an author and entrepreneur. He is one of the world's most successful hedge fund managers and entrepreneurs. He joined us today to talk about his book, ‘Die with Zero: Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life.’

How satisfied are you with your life? Did you achieve all the dreams you had, or are you still working on them? Most people regret what they didn’t do in their lives when they had the chance. Spending time with your loved ones, taking risks, or doing anything else may seem unnecessary now, but there will be a time when you regret not doing them. When you realize it, it’s already too late. 

From the dangers of being too dependent on work for social interactions to maximizing net fulfillment, Bill shares his thoughts on how to live life fully and free of fear. He gives practical advice on leveraging experience, making deliberate financial decisions, and prioritizing fulfilling experiences over mere material wealth. He also shares his personal experiences on discovering new passions later in life and learning from other people's mistakes to achieve one's goals. Join us to gain insights to help you maximize your time, experiences and ultimately live a more fulfilling life.
