| 0:00.0 | You've probably noticed this. Despite all the headlines about record investment in renewables, |
| 0:04.8 | the world still runs on oil. In fact, demand keeps climbing. But here's what most investors don't |
| 0:10.8 | realize. A lot of institutional capital has actually pulled back from oil and gas because of |
| 0:15.8 | ESG mandates and political pressure. That's created a huge gap in production and a big opportunity for |
| 0:22.1 | individual investors. That's where Aspen's oil and gas fund comes in. Their last fund has |
| 0:27.4 | delivered six straight quarters of 15% annualized cash yield from producing oil wells. With their |
| 0:33.3 | current fund, they're targeting 29% cash on cash returns in over 10 years and 8.83 times equity |
| 0:39.9 | multiple. I've personally been impressed with the way Aspen approaches a space balancing the |
| 0:45.1 | stability of producing wells with the upside of carefully selected drilling projects. And here's a |
| 0:50.7 | bonus for best ever listeners. Aspen has lowered their minimum investment from $150,000 |
| 0:55.8 | down to $100,000. One of their investors, Terry, put it best. We were new to oil and gas |
| 1:02.1 | investing and quickly found Aspen's approach sound. We've been very satisfied with the experience |
| 1:07.6 | and delighted with the returns. This is a limited time offer, so head over to |
