| 0:00.0 | Hello, everyone. Chris Martinson here with another amazing off the cup for you. Today's guest, |
| 0:04.3 | personal friend of mine, amazing gentlemen. He's got incredible views of the world. And also, |
| 0:10.3 | he's got some incredible things to tell us about financial freedom and about a very, very special |
| 0:14.5 | type of a retirement account, which I am a practitioner of called the EQRP. What is that? We're going to find out about that. Damian Lupo. |
| 0:23.0 | Welcome to the show. So good to be here, Chris. Good to see you. Hey, it's great to have you. I know you |
| 0:28.9 | were just over in Italy recently and taking some not much needed time off very quickly. Tell |
| 0:34.8 | people about yourself and how it is that you got to a position where |
| 0:38.5 | you can go and have a good time in Italy if you want to. Yeah, but it's funny because I was |
| 0:44.7 | over there and everybody told me, like they insisted that I needed to go over there and |
| 0:48.5 | unplug and not be connected. Yeah, sure. My laptop went with me because that's what entrepreneurs |
| 0:52.3 | do. We just like, because we're so obsessed. And I think that's a great word to describe. I get obsessed about the thing that I'm working on because I think we're all programmed to engage and create as humans and be part of building like ants somehow. And so that started a long time ago, 25 plus years ago. I started building |
| 1:12.5 | things and most of them didn't work and then something would work. And so, you know, 70 companies |
| 1:17.7 | later and all the different projects, I've gotten to a point where I've gotten, I'm totally bald. |
| 1:24.6 | So it's either bald or gray. Like you end up with that wisdom. And I think that |
| 1:27.5 | means that somebody has built things when they go bald or gray. They've gone through a lot. |
| 1:33.0 | And ultimately, it was, it was a process of starting off, focusing on building things to make money |
| 1:38.5 | and then losing everything and then realizing that there's something beyond just getting a bunch |
| 1:43.8 | of money, that money is a |
| 1:45.1 | side effect and that there's, that we're here not to go collect money, but to create value, |
| 1:50.6 | to create something of important significance. And that's, that's where I landed today with the |
| 1:56.0 | work that I'm doing and the people I get to work with. It's about creating value and helping people |
