You’ve built the first million. Now what? Beyond the First Million is a podcast for high earners navigating the decisions that actually shape their financial lives. Not just “what’s the market doing?” or “how should you invest?” We’re talking about the real decisions: ...When is it safe to spend more? ...How should you think about retirement when your life is still evolving? ...What does buying a home actually mean for your financial life? Most outcomes aren’t driven by small optimizations. They’re driven by a handful of big decisions, and getting those right matters. This show is designed for individuals and families earning $300K–$1M+ who feel comfortable day-to-day but know there’s another level of planning and coordination. We break down real scenarios, tradeoffs, and how to think about your financial life as a system, not a series of isolated choices. New episodes every Thursday. Subscribe and follow along.
