    Learning from Mistakes w/ Aaron Brennan

    Learning from Mistakes w/ Aaron Brennan

    What's up everyone it's Captain Kyle Smith and this week I sat down for a Morning Meeting with retired SDFD Aaron Brennan. Aaron has spent the last 30 years serving his community and country and as he looks back on his career, one of his biggest regrets was that he didn’t start investing when he was brand new on the job. Listen in as he shares some of the other mistakes he made along the way and what he did to correct them.

    Although he studied finance in college, he didn’t fully apply what he learned in school until much later. Had he started investing back then, the power of compounding interest would’ve taken over and snowballed his nest-egg to huge heights.

    I hope you guys enjoy it!

    House Hacking Success w/ Andrew Kerr

    House Hacking Success w/ Andrew Kerr

    What's up everyone it's Captain Kyle Smith and this week I sat down for a Morning Meeting with host of The House Hacking Podcast Andrew Kerr. Andrew has been investing in real estate for 20 years and he shares his vision for how investors can accelerate their journey in real estate through house hacking. For those interested in ADU’s, this episode is for you!

    If you’re unfamiliar with the concept of house hacking, it’s where you have someone else help pay your mortgage for you by either having a roommate, buying a duplex or building a granny flat on your property and having a renter move in.

    If you’re interested in learning more, Andrew has generously offered the first 5 people who reach out to me FREE access to his House Hacking Course. That’s a $799 value!

    The House Hacking Quick Start Guide, you can also get for FREE at https://fibyrei.com/firehouse

    For those of you who want to connect with Andrew, you can find him at www.FIbyREI.com

    Filling Retirement Buckets w/ Eric Faulk

    Filling Retirement Buckets w/ Eric Faulk

    What's up everyone it's Captain Kyle Smith and this week I sat down for a Morning Meeting with SDFD Captain Eric Faulk. Eric describes the importance of filling various retirement buckets and why do so is a great hedge against tax uncertainty, inflation and sequence risk.

    Eric explains how his dad took a very conservative approach to finances, having never invested in the stock market. He says that this decision contributed to his father having to work in to his 80’s instead of letting the power of compounding interest work it’s magic.

    Giving every dollar a job w/ Kacy Smith

    Giving every dollar a job w/ Kacy Smith

    What's up everyone it's Captain Kyle Smith and this week I sat down for a Morning Meeting with Firewife and financial coach Kacy Smith. Kacy and her husband paid off $70k of debt in 18 months and she wants you to steal her technique so you can do it too. 

    As a financial coach, she’s identified the top 4 reasons people struggle with money and how to fix it:

    1. Can't/won't save any money 

    2. Can't get out of debt 

    3. Overspending/Can't stick to a budget 

    4. Make a decent living, but don't track spending

    If you’d like to learn more about her you can find her on Instagram @debtfreearewe or her website www.straightcents.com

    I hope you guys enjoy it!

    Basic Financial Literacy w/ Patrick Di Cesare

    Basic Financial Literacy w/ Patrick Di Cesare

    What's up everyone it's Captain Kyle Smith and this week I sat down for a Morning Meeting with Fairfax County, Virginia Firefighter Patrick Di Cesare. Patrick is aggressively cutting line on the path toward financial independence and he shares all the methods that uses. 

    Patrick is a huge proponent of index fund investing because of their low-cost and solid returns. Set up auto payments though your payroll and you’ll be on your way. His main regret is that he didn’t start sooner.

    If you’d like to learn more about him you can find him on the various social media platforms as Basic Financial Literacy...

Casey knows the coast ,

I wish this was around when I was a new Firefighter

Financial literacy should be taught in the fire academy but it’s not! Luckily this is the next best thing that’s specifically geared towards firefighters and captures decades of wisdom and experience in one place. Highly recommend!!!

Humble Mentor

The humility that Kyle has as a host is second to none. His ability to make all guest feel comfortable so that the listeners can get the most out of the each guest is a tribute to his humility. He uses real people with real results and experience that anyone can relate to. This podcast provides value at a tangible and applicable level that anyone can benefit from at any stage of life. A pleasure to listen to and an honor to learn from. 5 stars!!!!’
