How to Fly $30,000 First Class for $4,000
What if you could travel more and save TONS OF MONEY? ( We're talking THOUSANDS of dollars…)Today’s episode starts off with great advice - never pay retail prices! Or at least, Matt Bennett never pays retail. As owner and founder of FirstClassFlyer.com, Matt has spent years perfecting the art of never paying full price for airline travel.So how do you get this amazing deal? With five simple strategies that Matt has perfected over the years.Buy Miles: Did you know you could buy miles? Companies like Amex allow customers to buy miles outright without having to buy a product to earn miles. (He also let me know that Amex has sales where miles are discounted!)Find the Routes with the Best Seats: Do you want your first class experience in an old 1970's-style airplane or a nice new plane? Obviously, you want the newer plane and Matt knows what routes those planes fly.Accidental Bucket List Experience: Keep your mind open! So what if you have to fly to Melbourne to get to Sydney? You might fly in on the perfect day for an Australian Open in Tennis.Travel like a King, Queen, or Rockstar: Don’t outright buy a first class upgrade—put yourself on a waitlist. Even if that means picking up the phone sometimes.Turn your Business Trip into a Vacation: Do those pesky business trips get in the way of having a real vacation? Or is your boring plane going to Puerto Rico without you? Take advantage of your business trips. Add an extra stop to the beach before returning home. Fly to Prague for a Summit and stop in Italy while you’re there. The possibilities are endless—and cheaper.You’ll have to listen to the whole episode to hear about each strategy in detail and find out how Matt has used his knowledge to help find people millions of deals on flights.

Will AI Replace Humans? (Part 2)
Welcome to Part 2 of “Will Artificial Intelligence Replace Humans?”Today, Dan and Mike will wrap up this 2-part podcast by uncovering a few key principles that all entrepreneurs need to know in order to survive what’s inevitably coming.If there’s one thing they know, it’s that AI will continue to advance and become smarter and faster.For the inexperienced entrepreneur, it’s creating a lot of worry and fear and Mike thinks he knows why…We’ve already seen robots replace factory workers in assembly-line industries. Phone operators, telemarketers, and even receptionists are a thing of the past for many businesses. Many pharmacies are replacing their technicians with robots capable of separating and handling prescriptions...The next logical question is… Is your industry or skill set next?Mike thinks it depends. Luckily, there are a few things that you can do about it. Simple things, that if implemented, won’t just provide “job security” but change the way you do business.Here's a hint as to what it is that separates you from any robot out there… It’s the “human element.”Tune into the whole episode and it will explain everything.

Will AI Replace Humans? (Part 1)
The Evolution of Human LaborFasten your seatbelt because you’re in for a wild ride!In today’s episode, Dan and Mike started off talking about AI and the evolution of human labor, but that quickly evolved into a conversation about being able to spend all of your time in your own, “Amplified State.”Or as Dan called it, YOU AMPLIFIED! (Full disclosure… Mike loved the term so much that he actually registered the domain while they were recording.)Think about the evolution of man… We started out as hunters, and then as communities started growing, we became workers. Farmers initially, but then we started turning towards knowledge, and that meant becoming creators.The next evolution is NARRATORS.What's happening today is that there's AI technology that allows you to speak what you want, and the AI writes it for you.Mike listened to a podcast the other day that was completely created by an AI. It was a conversation between Joe Rogan and Steve Jobs, and for the most part, it sounded fairly believable.Facebook just came out with an AI system that generates videos from text, and Elon Musk recently talked about a new $20,000 robot that he wants to put in his factories, leveraging all of the data acquired from self-driving cars.Imagine if you had a $20,000 robot. What would you have it do that would create huge additional capabilities for you?Then Dan brought up a VERY good point. “There's a big difference between human intelligence and AI intelligence… AI is NOT coming up with the ideas. It doesn't have dreams or meaning. It just takes what already exists and reconfigures it.”WOW. This was one of the most inspirational episodes that Dan and Mike have done in a long time. It really got Mike's wheels turning, and you'll get a ton out of it too.And BONUS… this is part one of two, so make sure to watch out for the conclusion next week.Start by listening to Part One TODAY!Key Takeaways(02:07) SO much new technology is happening right now!

5 Scary Ways AI is Changing Reality
Do you remember where you were on June 29, 2007?The day that Steve Jobs walked onto a stage, revealed the world’s very first iPhone, and said:“It’s a phone. It’s a personal communication device and a music player!”A day that will surely go down in history, but here’s the most extraordinary part… If you google what devices the iPhone replaced, you’ll find a list of 101 items:Wrist WatchPedometerVCR/ DVD PlayerTelevisionGames of all sortsRadioAnd the list goes on and on…But if you thought that the iPhone was big… This is infinitely BIGGER!I’m talking about Artificial Intelligence and it’s happening NOW.

Unless we learn how to prepare for, and avoid the potential risks, AI could be the worst event in the history of our civilization.” – Elon MuskIn today’s episode, we uncover 5 Scary Ways Ai is Changing Our Reality and what that means for your future.We’ll also talk about the biggest industries (by revenue) that Ai has already taken over and what those changes mean for you and me.And in case this all freaks you out a bit… we’ll show you how you can use this unique opportunity in history as a stepping stone, rather than a stumbling block.The future has arrived, my friend.

3 Secrets to Extending Your Life, Losing Weight and Boosting Energy with Peptides
Your health can’t wait until tomorrow… By that time, it may be too late.As a high achiever, entrepreneur, and overall “Go-getter”, whether in business or life in general, how often have you lied by telling yourself:“Tomorrow… Tomorrow I will start to eat clean, get more rest, and start my daily exercise routine. Tomorrow I will start focusing on taking care of my health… Tomorrow.”It’s a tune we hear way too often that usually results in little to no progress from most entrepreneurs. Health, Longevity, and Life Extension don’t become important until the threat of losing it all becomes real.As obvious as you’d think prioritizing your health should be, we can’t say that we blame most entrepreneurs for having to learn this lesson the hard way… After all, you have way too much on your plate, right?It’s a slippery slope that you don’t want to find yourself stuck on…That’s what happened to Mike 10 years ago after finding out he had cancer. Long story short, it almost cost him his life.

He’s a functional medicine practitioner, licensed acupuncturist, and author of eight books on health and healing.Archibald is a recognized specialist in peptide therapy and through Mike's bloodwork, has been able to identify markers of otherwise undetected, underlying issues. He was then able to suggest certain peptides to optimize Mike's metabolic functions and revolutionized his health. Mike is 56, but he feels and looks like he did in his 30's! (Ask anyone who knows him) Listen to this fascinating episode as Regan uncovers the secrets to health, longevity, and life extension by revealing the secrets of Peptide Therapy.It’s time to put your health FIRST.Key Takeaways:(04:48) “Wipe and Mail…” You can mail your poop?(13:27) “I’m really healthy, but…” Taking a look under the hood.
