| 0:00.0 | You're listening to TIP. |
| 0:02.2 | Yeah, I mean, first, just to touch on this notion that you mentioned of the time billionaire, |
| 0:05.8 | the basic idea there is if you're under 40 or, frankly, even if you're over 40 these days, |
| 0:10.8 | you've got roughly a billion seconds or more to live in your life. |
| 0:15.1 | And that's actually the most valuable currency. |
| 0:17.8 | And the ultimate question is, how are you going to spend that time? And I argue that |
| 0:22.4 | ultimate success is control over you, how you spend your time. And of course, you know, a lot of the |
| 0:27.8 | things you want to do with your time do take money, but it's often not as much as you think. And that |
| 0:32.3 | leads me to kind of this exercise that you mentioned of, you know, what I call defining your ideal |
| 0:37.1 | end state. |
| 0:40.8 | Hey, everybody. In this week's episode of Millennial Investing, I got to sit down with Kevin |
| 0:44.9 | Dahlstrom to chat about how to create your ideal life. We did a deep dive in Kevin's 17-point |
| 0:49.9 | Twitter thread that went viral on how to lead a life that you dream of. You also learn about |
| 0:54.5 | the importance of minimalism and keeping a low burn rate to give yourself optionality in life, |
| 0:59.4 | how much money you'll need to fund your lifestyle, what smart money moves the wealthy make, |
| 1:04.1 | three behaviors that will put you ahead of 99% of all people plus a whole lot more. Kevin is well |
| 1:09.1 | known on Twitter for good reason and cranks out content that will improve your life. He's the founder of several startups. He was a chief marketing officer of two public companies, and he's invested in over 70 private equity and real estate deals. Kevin is married with two children and lives in Boulder, Colorado, and in his free time, he's an avid rock climber. This interview was a real treat |
| 1:28.4 | for me. I hope you guys get a lot out of it, but more importantly, I hope you implement some of |
| 1:32.4 | the ideas that Kevin discusses. And so, without further delay, let's get into this week's |
| 1:37.7 | episode with Kevin Dalstrom. You're listening to Millennial Investing by the Investors Podcast Network, where your hosts, Robert Leonard, Patrick Donnelly and Kyle Greve, interview successful entrepreneurs, business leaders and investors to help educate and inspire the millennial generation. |
| 2:09.2 | Hey. Hey, everybody. Welcome to the millennial investing podcast. I'm your host today, Patrick Donnelly, |
| 2:14.8 | and joining me today is Kevin Dahlstrom. Kevin, welcome to the show. Hey, Patrick. Thanks for having me on. I'm excited to chat. I'm excited too. I've been looking forward to this one. I wanted to talk a little bit. You've been the founder of at least four companies. At least, I think probably more than that. You've had a recent venture swell, which we may get into. You've also been the chief marketing officer of two public companies. And I think you've been involved in over maybe 70 private equity |
