b'How can understanding the mindset of the wealthy help you build your own wealth?\\n\\xa0\\nIn this episode, Dave Wolcott shares his journey to financial freedom after a major life event led him to rethink his approach to money. He digs into the differences between how the wealthy 1% think about finances compared to the typical middle-class mindset, and the moves the ultra-rich make to build their wealth. He provides specific examples of how to take action in your own life and investments to set yourself up for abundance rather than scarcity.\\n\\xa0\\nDave Wolcott started his career serving the country as a Captain in the Marine Corps. In 2000 he and his wife won the baby lottery by having triplets which inspired him to challenge the traditional financial planning advice of Wall Street. He then started an obsessive journey to understand how the top one percent were building their wealth. A serial entrepreneur at heart, Dave spent the next 20 years building several businesses, investing in alternative assets, and creating The Pantheon Holistic Wealth Strategy: the playbook to becoming ultra-wealthy and having not only freedom of money, but freedom of purpose, time, and relationship. Today, Dave is the Founder and CEO of Pantheon Investments and is more passionate than ever about helping entrepreneurs build wealth by passively investing in superior real estate and alternative assets that provide predictable cash flow, tax efficiency, and upside potential as a reliable alternative to the volatility of the stock market.
