093R | Brad, Jonathan and Joe Saul-Sehy, from Stacking Benjamins, talk about what is rewarding to your soul, give feedback to a ChooseFI community member who’s considering selling his business, and recap Harry, the Ride Share Guy’s strategies for become the center of a niche. Hurricane Florence’s path didn’t go near Brad and Jonathan, but there were tornadoes. FU money is better than FI money. Meet up in Florida during the week of FinCon 2018. How did Harry (from Monday’s episode) become the go-to guy for ride-share drivers? What strategies would help someone become the go-to person in a particular niche? How can you solve a problem that you, and other people, have? Find people who like and trust you. How is retail changing in 2018? How did Harry pursue unusual opportunities to make extra money? Could the “destination filter” as an Uber or Lyft driver and the potential to deduct you commute drop someone into a lower tax bracket? How did Joe from Stacking Benjamins become a financial advisor? What did the phrase “other mountains to climb” mean to Joe and how did it impact his career? What did Joe value about going back to school to be a teacher, but not actually becoming a teacher? What does it mean for something to be “rewarding for your soul”? How did Joe need to adjust his business in order to sell it? Where does financial independence stand within the personal finance world? Is financial independence about playing defense or offense? Voicemail from Jon, looking for advice about whether he should sell his business to become FI, or continue working with a few side hustles. Could Jon restructure his business to reduce stress and create a more positive working environment? What’s wrong with a life well worked? Is there value in purchasing a business that is inextricably tied to a single person? Coming up soon, Stacking Benjamins is doing live shows in Orlando, Kansas City and Ferndale, Mich.
