Illiquid Assets and Over-investing in Yourself MoneyWise
-
- Investing
If you’re already living the lifestyle you want, what is the point of liquid assets?
Is there too much risk in tying up the vast majority of your assets?
And more importantly, if you already have far more money than you’ll ever need, what is the purpose in continuing to invest for the future when you could be enjoying that money in the present?
“Dave” is worth about $150 million, yet he lives on a $600,000 salary that doesn’t even cover his monthly spend. Instead of using his existing wealth, he’s keeping most of it tied up in private businesses, angel investments, crypto, real estate, and a very small public portfolio. But why?
“Dave” is in the early stages of an experiment where he massively over invests in himself, just to see what he can do. That also includes hiring a personal team so he doesn’t have to lift a finger with home chores.
In this episode, “Dave” will walk us through why he’s living this way, how it impacts how he can spend his money, and we’ll get a detailed breakdown of exactly where all of his money is and how much he has access to. He’ll also tell us about his experiment: why he’s running it, what it actually looks like, and how it’s working out.
This is Moneywise, a podcast where host Sam Parr is joined by high-net-worth guests to explore exclusive insights into personal finance and lifestyle tailored for other high-net-worth people, or those on their way. They'll get radically transparent about the numbers, revealing things like their burn rates, portfolios, and spending habits
