  1. Designing Wealth for a 100-Year Life

    Designing Wealth for a 100-Year Life

    EPISODE SUMMARY In this reflective and forward-looking episode, the host explores a question most people avoid: What if you live to 95… or even 100? After celebrating a 65th birthday and anticipating a 90th birthday in the family, he reflects on how quickly life moves — and how dramatically longevity is changing financial realities. With people living longer, traditional retirement models may leave individuals exposed, underprepared, and overly dependent on outdated financial advice. This episode challenges the average-life-expectancy mindset and instead encourages listeners to build wealth plans that account for longer runways, rising healthcare costs, tax exposure, and economic volatility. But the conversation goes deeper than money. The host introduces the concept of four forms of capital — financial, health, relationship, and purpose capital — arguing that true wealth requires balance across all four. Money alone does not equal wealth. Freedom, flexibility, optionality, and contribution define it more accurately. This episode is a call to rethink not just retirement… but the entire philosophy of wealth building.

    Episode Summary In this episode of Perennial Pride, Tom Suvansri explores a powerful paradox: why highly successful professionals often abandon the very mindset that made them successful when it comes to managing their personal finances.
