Join host Chad Sutton as he speaks with Curtis Mayon. Curtis May is the creator and owner of Practical Wealth Advisors (PWA) and host of The Practical Wealth Show Podcast. The primary focus of his financial planning firm is to help individuals and families become financially free by following the principles of wealth creation that have endured for centuries around the world.
This episode covers the five principles of accumulating security, wealth, and growing that wealth: saving 15-20% of one's gross income, maximum protection through insurance, full replacement of assets at death, liquidity by having 6-12 months' worth of income in cash, and velocity which is looking for cash-flowing assets rather than chasing capital gains. Through this discussion, listeners will learn about the different schools of thought when it comes to financial advice and investment strategies, such as accumulation theory and the velocity method. Curtis will also provide key takeaways such as becoming an active passive investor by creating a wealth capture account and paying yourself first from your source of earned income.
