Investment Strategies of the Emerging Affluent, with Cindy Birkland

We’re keeping things close to home this week on Finding Certainty as I interview one of my favorite financial planners right here in Henderson, Nevada, the community (a suburb of Las Vegas) that we are both blessed to call home. Call it my Special New Year’s Gift to you and those you care for … this short, engaging conversation with Cindy Birkland of Eternity Financial, AND Ministries, and the popular local Speakeasy Networking Events. Cindy does a lot and, is highly respected and loved, especially here in Vegas, and in our conversation, you’ll hear her draw back the curtain on wealth building and retirement planning as she shares her own story of having to start over financially following the 2008 collapse and the lessons she subsequently learned and now shares with her clients. There were (and are) far better ways to be prepared financially, she says. It’s an insightful conversation on important topics that hit close to home for many Americans. Among other things, we delve into a little-known investment strategy that is so simple yet powerful it’s hard to believe more people don’t do it (hint: it’s usually because they just don’t know it exists). We also discuss how Cindy and a large group of local business people chose to respond and not give up when the governor shut down Las Vegas during the COVID pandemic and the way it changed (and helped save) many of their operations. The list goes on. You’ll learn a great deal from my friend. Listen in and you’ll be glad that you did.
