    Why AI 'Experts' Are WRONG About The Apocalypse (And How You'll Get RICH Instead)

    I brought an AI expert to Maui last week who's raised over $117 million using AI. And he thinks all the scientists screaming about AI doom are missing the point entirely. Joe Stolte joined Cam and me to answer the question I've been losing sleep over: Are we all dead because of AI? Here's what's wild: the people screaming the loudest about AI destroying humanity? They've never actually built anything. They're catastrophizing because it's easier to imagine terrible futures than create positive ones. Meanwhile, regular people who understand AI are quietly automating their businesses, raising millions with AI-generated pitch decks, and scaling faster than ever before. In this episode: Why your brain is wired to fear AI (and why that's costing you money) The newspaper headlines that said electricity would "destroy humanity" (sound familiar?) Joe's 5-step framework: Learn AI → Use AI → Build with AI → Teach AI → Scale with AI How he raised $117M using AI to create pitch decks and presentations Real examples of how AI is replacing jobs (and why that's actually good news) The Dan Sullivan story: Why we're terrible at predicting the future but great at attaching meaning to things How to use AI right now even if you're scared or skeptical While everyone's arguing about whether AI will kill us, your competition is using it to automate, scale, and get rich. DM me the word "BEARD" and I’ll send you all the resources mentioned in the episode. 🧔‍♂️ WHO AM I? My name is Brandon Turner!

    Four Millionaires Share the #1 Advice That Made Them Millions.

    I had two millionaire real estate investors visit Maui last week. So naturally, we sat down and recorded a podcast. Craig Curelop (house hacking legend, founder of The FI Team) and Mike Brockway (luxury short-term rental expert) joined Cam and me to talk about the single pieces of advice that completely changed our financial trajectories. Here's what's wild: none of us became millionaires because we worked harder. We became millionaires because someone gave us advice that shifted how we thought about building wealth. In this episode: The BiggerPockets forum post that changed my entire life (and why I still have it printed out 20 years later) Why the "bucket vs. pipeline" story from Cashflow Quadrant made me a MULTI-millionaire Craig's house hacking journey and why "living like no one else" is more than just frugality Mike's short-term rental empire and the power of getting around the right people Cam's BRRRR breakthrough (and why it doesn't work the same way in 2026) The difference between advice that makes you a millionaire vs. advice that makes you a MULTI-millionaire Why systems beat hustle every single time How to surround yourself with people who make the impossible look like a Tuesday morning The thread throughout this entire conversation? None of this was complicated. But it required us to actually listen and implement instead of just nodding our heads. REI Summit 2026 is happening April 1–3 in Austin, Texas.

    The Random Show: ADUs and Co-Living, 2026 Goal-Setting, and Working with Your Spouse

    This episode has no agenda… and that’s why it works! We bounce from ADUs and co-living to 2026 goal-setting to the rarely discussed reality of working with your spouse, not because we planned to, but because these topics are quietly connected by the same question: How do you design a life that actually works? What starts as a practical conversation about housing flexibility turns into a bigger discussion about tradeoffs—space, money, time, ambition, and relationships. We talk about why some “smart” ideas fall apart in real life, why certain goals lose their appeal as your life changes, and why mixing marriage and business can either sharpen everything… or expose every crack. If you like real conversations that don’t fit into neat buckets, make sure to hit FOLLOW 🔔 Know someone thinking about ADUs, co-living, or working with their spouse? Send this to them. 🧔‍♂️ WHO AM I?

    Broke to Millionaire: 20 Things to Stop Doing NOW

    At 24, I was broke and stuck. I was doing everything I thought I should be doing—but nothing was working. Then I started spending time with actual millionaires. And I realized something: they weren't successful because of what they did. They were successful because of what they stopped doing. So I started eliminating behaviors that kept me broke. Combined with the right actions, I became a millionaire. In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact behaviors you need to eliminate if you want to break out of being stuck and broke. Fair warning: if you get triggered at any point, good. That means you needed to hear it. Millionaire-level growth doesn't come from comfort. It comes from confronting the parts of your life you've been avoiding. In this episode: Stop waiting for motivation (discipline beats feelings) Stop hanging with people who don't want more Stop spending like you're already rich Stop blaming your circumstances Stop consuming junk (food, media, information) Stop negotiating with your weakness Stop expecting overnight success …and 13 more behaviors that keep you broke None of this is complicated. But it requires you to actually stop—not just nod your head and keep doing the same thing. 🧔‍♂️ WHO AM I?  My name is Brandon Turner!

    Does God Want Us To Be Rich? with Pedro Adao

    Pedro Adao went from begging God to kill him to building a $50 million business. And it wasn't because he worked harder. It was because he stopped doing business like everyone else and started doing it God's way. In this episode, Pedro breaks down what actually happened during his bankruptcy, why he hired a mentor when he couldn't afford groceries, and how he doubled his income the same year he gave himself a 40% pay cut. We also get into the stuff most people won't talk about:  Why most pastors shouldn't be pastors. How to know if you're building wealth for the right reasons. What God actually thinks about money.This conversation went deep. If you've ever felt conflicted about making money as a believer, you need to hear this. 🔗 JOIN THE 31 DAY WISDOM CHALLENGE: 31daywisdomchallenge.com 🧔‍♂️ WHO AM I? My name is Brandon Turner!
