from Wade Borth - Sage Wealth Strategy · host Wade Borth, Todd Langford, David Zapata

Summary  In part two, Todd shares the essential ideas he believes every advisor and client should understand: the difference between savings and investments, why life insurance belongs in the "certainty asset" category, how cash protects against both gray and black swan events, and why net worth isn't the real target—cash flow and distribution are. The trio explores asset sequence, liquidity, and why small strategic changes over time outperform "swinging for the fences."
