365: Lessons For Hannah - 11 Years!
Many years ago, I introduced a new format that alongside our regular episodes called “Lessons for Hannah.” Hannah is my daughter and one of the main inspirations for the Misfit Entrepreneur. I wanted to have a place where she could go and learn from her daddy and his Misfit friends throughout her life….even after I am gone. If you haven’t listened to the first episode of "Lessons for Hannah," I urge you to as it gives some more background and tells the amazing story of how Hannah came to be in our lives. Lessons for Hannah are short, very useful, and sometimes comical lessons, that I want to share with you and give to Hannah to help in your lives. Because I want Hannah to have these for her life, I’m going to speak as though I am talking directly to her. These episodes are a lot of fun and if you think there is a lesson that we should include in these episodes, please don’t hesitate to send it over to us at support@misfitentrepreneur.com. We’d love to share it. To see the full show notes and Misfit 3 for this episode, go to www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com.

361: Bank on Yourself, Building Infinite Wealth with Cameron Christiansen and Anthony Faso
This week’s Misfit Entrepreneurs are Anthony Faso and Cameron Christiansen, founders of Infinite Wealth Consultants. Anthony is a self-described “recovering CPA” who worked at the world’s largest accounting firm and served as CFO of a chain of restaurants. After the 2008 recession, he realized that the solution to financial freedom would never be found in the latest Wall Street-created financial product. He discovered his path to financial independence and began to teach and coach individuals and business owners about money and investing. Cameron was a small business owner who was frustrated with investment solutions proposed by traditional financial advisors. This frustration led him to discover infinite banking and real estate investing. After advising others for over a decade, Cameron shares his expertise in passive income generation and cash flow analysis in his partnership with Anthony. Together Anthony and Cameron have figured out how to create financial independence while minimizing risk, in some cases to almost none, so I asked them on to share their secrets and how entrepreneurs can better build their wealth. www.infinitewealthconsultants.com Free course ($500 Value!) www.inifinitewealthconsultants.com/Misfits To see the full show notes and Misfit 3 for this episode, go to www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com Show Sponsors: Pearl Diver: Pearl Diver is a cutting-edge platform that provides in-depth visitor identification, enabling you to uncover valuable insights about your website visitors. www.PearlDiver.IO 5 Minute Journal: www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com/Journal
