143: How to ACTUALLY Start a Micro Family Office in 2026
👋 Managing Tech Millions 📈 your go-to source for building wealth with tech equity and managing the money that comes with it.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows.👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomWhen? 📆 February 4th at 7pm to 9pm (Central US)In 2025, 1,000 new millionaires were created every single day in the US. But here’s the problem—the moment you cross that threshold, you enter what I call the financial service desert. You’re too wealthy for cookie-cutter financial advisors, but you don’t have the $100 million minimum to access a traditional single family office.The result? Highly successful individuals get stuck in analysis paralysis or make bad investment decisions, which can lead to million-dollar mistakes.I’ve been there. In 2012, I made my first million and soon realized that the traditional wealth management options were not serving my needs. After talking to several wealth advisors, I realized no one had my best interests in mind. So, I studied how the ultra-wealthy manage their money through family offices—and built what I now call a Micro Family Office.Today, my portfolio generates over $200,000 annually in cash flow, while still growing, and I’ve been able to retire at 51 and focus on what truly matters to me: my family and health.In this episode, I’m breaking down the four-phase process I used to build my own Micro Family Office in 2026. These are the same steps you can use to manage your wealth like the business it truly is.Phase 1: ArchitectBefore you start building your system, you need to have a clear strategy. In the Architect phase, you define the foundation of your wealth management.Phase 2: BuildIn the Build phase, you transform your strategy into actual infrastructure:* Legal Structure.* Building Your Team.* Systems and Technology.Phase 3: RunOnce you’ve laid the foundation in Architect and Build, the Run phase is where your Micro Family Office becomes operational. The beauty of this phase is that if you did the previous phases correctly, running your family office will only take about 5 to 10 hours per week.Phase 4: SuccessionThis phase sets apart good wealth management from true generational wealth. The ultra-wealthy don’t just think about their own wealth—they plan for future generations. This means three key things:* Comprehensive Estate Plan.* Teaching the Next Generation.* Document Everything.What Does a Functioning Micro Family Office Look Like?A properly functioning Micro Family Office includes:* A clear strategy aligned with your life goals.* A diversified portfolio that generates consistent income—no more chasing paper gains.* A team of experts who report to YOU, not the other way around.* Systems that run smoothly without consuming your life.* Confidence in your decisions and knowing that your wealth is protected and will grow across generations.It’s about shifting your mindset from managing your wealth like a side hustle to running it like a business.Common MistakesHere are the six biggest mistakes people make when building their Micro Family Office:* Overconcentration in one stock.* No framework—winging it with scattered investments.* Wrong advisors—not having the right specialists in place.* Treating taxes as an annual event instead of year-round strategic planning.* Poor investment sizing—don’t put too much of your portfolio into one deal.* Managing millions like a savings account—shift from a drawdown to an evergreen portfolio.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomSpots are limited—and the clarity you’ll gain?

142: How 8% Returns Beat 12% Returns (Structured Alpha Explained)
👋 Managing Tech Millions 📈 your go-to source for building wealth with tech equity and managing the money that comes with it.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows.👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomWhen? 📆 January 21st at 7pm to 9pm (Central US)How can an 8% return outperform a 12% return over time?The answer has nothing to do with taking more risk, and everything to do with what you actually keep.In this episode, I break down the concept of Structured Alpha—a framework used by ultra-wealthy families to measure after-tax performance instead of headline returns. Most investors obsess over gross returns, but taxes quietly erode 2–4% of their portfolio every year. Over decades, that can mean millions lost to inefficiency.You’ll learn why gross returns are misleading, how income type matters more than yield, and how combining income architecture with tax optimization can dramatically increase long-term wealth—without increasing market risk.We’ll walk through real examples across different portfolio sizes and show how investors with $1M–$30M can systematically keep more of what they earn, letting compounding do the heavy lifting.If you’re serious about building wealth like a business—and not leaving money on the table—this episode will change how you evaluate returns forever.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomSpots are limited—and the clarity you’ll gain?

141: 5 Reasons You Should NOT Start a Micro Family Office
👋 Managing Tech Millions 📈 your go-to source for building wealth with tech equity and managing the money that comes with it.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows.👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomWhen? 📆 January 21st at 7pm to 9pm (Central US)Most people listening to this episode should not build their own wealth management infrastructure. And hearing that upfront might save you from a very expensive mistake.Managing an $8M Micro Family Office has taught me something most content in this space avoids saying out loud: this approach is incredibly powerful—but only for a very specific type of person. If even one of five key conditions applies to you, building a Micro Family Office will likely create more friction than freedom. But if none of them apply, managing your wealth like a business may be the highest-return decision you ever make.In this episode, I walk through the five reasons you should not build a Micro Family Office—covering mindset, time commitment, tax strategy, portfolio structure, and asset scale. This isn’t hype or theory. It’s a reality check based on running my own portfolio with a CEO-level operating model, where income, growth, and preservation work together as a single system.You’ll hear why passive, “set it and forget it” investors are better served by traditional advisors, why proactive tax strategy can quietly add tens of thousands of dollars per year to your bottom line, and why portfolios under $1M usually don’t justify the infrastructure required. We’ll also break down the real weekly time commitment, what “active ownership” actually looks like, and the critical difference between drawdown portfolios and Evergreen Portfolios designed to fund life without selling assets.This conversation reframes wealth entirely: a multi-million-dollar portfolio isn’t just an account—it’s a business. One capable of generating six figures in annual income with a fraction of the effort most people spent building their careers. The question isn’t whether you’re capable of running it. It’s whether this model truly fits how you want to live, think, and engage with your money.If you’re frustrated with cookie-cutter advice, want real control over your financial future, and are serious about building generational wealth—not just spending it down—this episode will help you decide, clearly and honestly, whether a Micro Family Office is the right path for you.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomSpots are limited—and the clarity you’ll gain?

140: How to Retire at 51 Instead of 67
👋 Managing Tech Millions 📈 your go-to source for building wealth with tech equity and managing the money that comes with it.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows.👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomWhen? 📆 January 7th at 7pm to 9pm (Central US)At 51, I walked away from a tech executive career with $6M in my portfolio, but I wasn’t retiring because I had “enough.” I retired because my portfolio was generating income, not just sitting there as a big number on a screen. In this video, I share how I built my portfolio to produce cash flow and grow at the same time, allowing me to retire early. It’s not about saving more or hoping for market growth—it’s about structuring your wealth like ultra-wealthy families do.Most high earners face a common problem: they accumulate millions but have no plan for income replacement. They’re stuck in a “wealth trap” where the goalposts keep moving, and retirement seems always out of reach. For years, I followed the traditional advice—60/40 portfolios, the 4% rule—only to realize it wasn’t built for my goals. That’s when I started studying how ultra-wealthy families actually manage their wealth, and what I discovered completely changed my approach.Ultra-wealthy families don’t rely on selling assets to fund their lives—they build what I call the Evergreen Portfolio. This model includes three critical components: growth assets for long-term appreciation, preservation assets for safety, and income-generating assets that fund your lifestyle without tapping into principal. In this video, I break down how I applied this framework to my own portfolio, how I structured it, and how you can do the same.With this strategy, I was able to take $6M and structure it so that half of it generates steady income, allowing me to retire at 51 while still growing my wealth. I show you exactly how to build your portfolio with growth, preservation, and income—without relying on market timing or risky bets.If you’re ready to break free from the traditional retirement advice and start building a portfolio that works for you now, this episode is for you.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomSpots are limited—and the clarity you’ll gain?

139: Have $1M-$30M? DON'T use the 4% rule
👋 Managing Tech Millions 📈 your go-to source for building wealth with tech equity and managing the money that comes with it.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows.👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomWhen? 📆 January 7th at 7pm to 9pm (Central US)Four years ago, one decision changed everything. Walking away from a tech executive career at 51 looked reckless from the outside—especially when the portfolio at the time was half the size of peers who were still working long hours. But there was one critical difference: while their wealth was just a number on a screen, this portfolio was already generating meaningful cash flow. Four years later, it has grown by more than $2M and now produces over $200K per year in income—without selling assets.This episode breaks down why the traditional 4% rule quietly fails high earners and why so many people with millions still feel trapped in demanding careers. The 4% rule was never designed for people managing seven- and eight-figure portfolios, and it ignores one of the biggest risks retirees face: sequence-of-returns risk. When markets drop early in retirement, forced asset sales can permanently derail a portfolio—and most advisors still build plans that rely entirely on hope and market timing.The conversation pulls back the curtain on a massive gap in wealth management. If you have under $1M, personal finance advice works. If you have over $100M, you can build a full Single Family Office. But between $1M and $30M, most investors are pushed into generic 60/40 portfolios that generate little to no income while charging substantial fees. This is what creates dependence on a paycheck long after wealth has been built.The alternative explored in this episode is how ultra-wealthy families actually structure portfolios: never selling assets to fund life. Instead, they build Evergreen Portfolios designed around three coordinated categories—growth, preservation, and income. Growth assets compound long-term value, preservation assets protect liquidity and downside risk, and income assets generate consistent cash flow that funds living expenses regardless of market conditions. This structure allows families to ride out downturns without panic, selling, or lifestyle disruption.You’ll hear exactly how this framework was implemented step by step—divesting concentrated stock positions over time, increasing liquidity, and deliberately building income-producing assets such as real estate, private credit, and income-focused strategies. The result was financial independence achieved not by guessing market cycles, but by replacing drawdowns with durable cash flow.The episode also walks through the real-world math behind why this approach matters. In down markets like 2008 or 2022, portfolios dependent on withdrawals permanently lose ground, while income-driven portfolios continue operating and recover faster. Same starting numbers. Completely different outcomes.If you’re managing between $1M and $30M, sitting on concentrated equity, or questioning whether the traditional retirement playbook actually works for your situation, this episode offers a clear, practical alternative. It’s not about chasing higher returns—it’s about building a system that supports your life today while still compounding for the future.If you want to go deeper into how this Evergreen approach fits inside a Micro Family Office structure—and how to implement it systematically—this episode is the foundation.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomSpots are limited—and the clarity you’ll gain?

137: Here's how I turned $3M into $200K/yr cash flow
👋 Managing Tech Millions 📈 your go-to source for building wealth with tech equity and managing the money that comes with it.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows.👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomWhen? 📆 January 7th at 7pm to 9pm (Central US)In 2012, 97% of one portfolio was tied to a single stock—a position that created incredible highs when the market was up and intense anxiety when it wasn’t. That level of concentration is a time bomb, and yet it’s exactly where many high earners find themselves after a liquidity event or years of accumulating company equity. Traditional advisors didn’t have answers beyond a generic 60/40 allocation and a “withdraw 4% in retirement” plan, none of which solved the real challenge: how to reduce concentration risk, generate income today, and still grow wealth over time.Most investors are taught the drawdown model—accumulate during your working years, then start selling assets in retirement. But this structure exposes you to sequence-of-returns risk and forces you to hope the market cooperates. The Evergreen model replaces hope with intention by organizing assets into three categories with clear jobs: growth assets that appreciate over time, income assets that generate cash flow today, and preservation assets that protect against downside risk. It’s the difference between treating your portfolio like a grain silo that empties over time and an orchard that produces fruit indefinitely without cutting down the trees.The turning point came from building an Investment Thesis—a strategic blueprint that defined goals, risk tolerance, allocation strategy, and return targets. Without this, most high earners wander from one idea to the next, reacting to market noise instead of executing a cohesive plan. After creating the thesis, a multi-year reallocation began, reducing concentrated equity positions and redeploying capital into a balanced structure aligned with the Evergreen model. The result was a portfolio with 47.5% in growth assets, 47.5% in income assets, and 5% in preservation, producing more than $200,000 per year in cash flow while still increasing in total value by over $2 million in just a few years.This video breaks down exactly how that transformation happened, why the traditional financial system fails individuals with $1M to $30M, and how the Micro Family Office approach allows high earners to run their wealth like a business rather than a side project. It’s a scalable framework used by families at the highest levels—and it works just as effectively for those managing portfolios in the seven- and eight-figure range.If you’re looking to reduce concentration risk, generate meaningful passive income, and build a portfolio that can support your lifestyle without selling off your future, this breakdown will show you the exact system that makes it possible.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomSpots are limited—and the clarity you’ll gain?

From the major-domos of the 6th century to the Rockefellers in the 1880s to the more than 10,000 family offices operating today, this model has quietly powered the longest-lasting fortunes on earth.But here’s what almost nobody talks about:If your net worth is between $1 million and $30 million, you’ve been completely locked out of this proven system. You’re too sophisticated for generic personal finance advice, yet not large enough for a traditional family office with multimillion-dollar annual operating costs.This episode breaks down why a Micro Family Office fills that gap—and why this moment in history makes it essential.

134: $10K monthly cash flow from a $1.5M portfolio, here’s how…
👋 Managing Tech Millions 📈 your go-to source for building wealth with tech equity and managing the money that comes with it.Join me for The WealthOps Way—our free live masterclass designed to help you stop guessing and start running your wealth like a business.You’ll go from scattered to strategic as you craft your own Portfolio Thesis—the foundation of everything that follows.👉 In just one session, you’ll:* Clarify your long-term vision* Define your next best investment move* Build the system that turns wealth into freedomWhen? 📆 December 17th at 7pm to 9pm (Central US)What if I told you that a $1.5M portfolio could generate $120K a year in income… pay less than $10K in taxes… and never require you to sell a single asset?In this video, I break down the exact Evergreen Portfolio model I personally use to generate over $200,000 per year in portfolio cash flow—without withdrawals, without relying on the stock market, and without slowly draining my net worth over time.Most high earners and tech professionals are stuck in the traditional “grow and drawdown” retirement model.
