0:00.0 | When you have wealth, you need to see all of it in real time across every account, every asset class, anywhere in the world. |
0:08.4 | That's why I use Kubara. It's the only platform that gives me a complete and real-time view of everything I own. |
0:15.5 | That means bank accounts, stocks, private investments, crypto, real estate, and even personal assets like art and collectibles. |
0:23.6 | But it's not just about tracking where I am today. It's about understanding where I'm headed. |
0:29.1 | Kubera's fast forward feature lets me model out different financial scenarios. So that means market shifts, |
0:34.5 | liquidity events, major purchases. So I always have a clear picture of what's |
0:39.2 | next. I depend on Cabara to say on top of my wealth. And if you want the same clarity, go to |
0:44.1 | Kubera.com. That's K-U-B-E-R-A.com. |

1:21.5 | he was making six figures. |
1:24.7 | It was just whatever was left over at the end of the month went to me. |
1:30.3 | And over time, that became $5,000, then $15,000, then $30,000, then $50,000. And the number just kept going up. And it got to a point where, you know, I just couldn't |
1:35.9 | spend it. And I had to figure out what to do with it. Andrew never planned to be super wealthy, |
1:40.2 | and he didn't grow up that way either. So throughout his 20s, he learned the hard way which things were worth spending time and money on and which things weren't. I just found that my |
1:48.6 | life turned into a series of questions from my assistant. He also made a ton of major mistakes |
