Bacon Wrapped Business With Brad Costanzo | Sizzling Hot Business Advice Guaranteed To Make You Fat...PROFITS!

Preston James & Mike Curtis from Trader’s Edge are experts in creating weekly income streams using a simple but often overlooked Options strategy that they call “The MoneyPress Method.” 



Many new investors are intimidated by options because they don’t understand them or think they’re too risky. And they can be if you’re speculating on wild swings.

But when you use methods like the MoneyPress, it lets you focus on earning weekly income while other people speculate on the price and simultaneously limiting your downside risk. 

Experienced investors often over complicated options strategies and completely overlook this simple method to produce income week-over-week.

Mario is the founder and CEO of Birdseye Hospitality, a renown hospitality consultant and serial entrepreneur as well as the owner of Denver's hottest nightclub, an immersive art dance bar called Beacon.

Who is Roddy Carter? 

A native of Johannesburg, South Africa, who has studied and worked on four continents, Roddy has over 30 years of experience working in a range of medical disciplines and corporate sectors – from working in the hospital’s trauma unit to family physician, to Olympic sports medicine and exercise scientist, to biotechnologist and chairman of corporate boards.

Amidst his professional success, Roddy experienced his own happiness and health crisis. During this profoundly challenging time, he began applying his deep knowledge of performance neuroscience to his everyday life.

This intimate personal experience highlighted for him how many of us (even the most successful) have a misaligned relationship with our most powerful gift – our brain.

In moments of trauma, the brain develops intricate psycho-protective adaptations, to ensure our survival in the short term. However, these adaptations often impose substantial residual limitation, preventing us from reaching our full potential and leaving us with considerable dysfunction and distress.

So today, he’s dedicated to sharing his compassionate approach to Personal Mastery with as many people as possible in order to help others uncover their immense and innate capacity.

What is a DAO and why does it matter?  Why should you look at starting one?A

And today Alex Taub, cofounder of UpstreamApp.com joins me to discuss how they work and how his company is making it easy to start and manage it.  They're calling it "The Shopify for DAO's" because of how simple they make it.

Back for a  Second appearance, Andrew Henderson, the Nomad Capitalist...

Are you living where you're treated best?

That's the question that the founder of NomadCapitalist.com, Andrew Henderson asks himself and his clients.

If you're a location independent entrepreneur and ever wondered what it might be like to live in different countries around the world, or just another country that offers more flexibility, freedom, lifestyle and less confiscatory taxation, you're going to want to listen to this episizzle all the way through.

What does it mean to be treated best?

According to Andrew, the USA has the best “Brand” in the world, but that doesn't mean it has the best “product,” especially for some people. The USA is a wonderful place in many respects, but depending on your socio-economic status it could be a nightmare compared to your options.

And explaining the options is what Andrew does best.

For instance, some people with lower incomes and savings could afford a much more comfortable lifestyle or retirement in a developing country where the cost of living is a fraction of the USA. On the other end of the spectrum, those with high incomes and wealth can also avoid the increasingly confiscatory taxation of the US and the other countries in the developed world.

The adventures and lifestyle you can create by understanding your options can open up a whole new world.

This is a topic I've personally given a lot of thought to and today you'll hear me selfishly ask Andrew questions I want to know for potential moves I might make.

As a business owner, you work really hard. You work really hard to bring in new clients and customers - “filling your cup” so your business can grow, make a difference, and, let’s be real, make a lot of money.

The problem is that eventually, your “cup” reaches its limit. And, when you reach that point it doesn’t matter how hard you work or how many sales you close. You make a mess. So what do you do?

You make your cup bigger. But here’s the problem. A lot of times when you try to increase your capacity, your “cup” ends up with a bunch of holes. And no matter how much business you bring in, you can never fill it up, and you still make a mess.

If you really want to grow your business, improve profitability and quality, then you’ve got to plug the holes and increase the size of the cup.

That’s what Zac Stucki does. He's the founder of Homeric Consulting where he increases your business’ capacity and helps you fill it up, so you can grow, be more profitable, and have the benefits of owning a business that you deserve.

He's helped businesses hit 40% year-over-year growth rates, generated plans that added $1.2 million to the bottom line, and beat growth projections by 60%.

This is a super short episode that I call a "Bacon Bit" 

Here's 1 quick tip to anyone starting a new side-hustle or business... 

This takes zero skill but will save so much frustration. (I wish I did it when I first started out)

Gave this friendly advice yesterday and figured someone else, somewhere might find it just as useful.

Today I'm joined by Justin Cooke, cofounder and CMO of Empire Flippers as he explains the state of the digital business acquisition market now... specifically Amazon FBA and ecommerce businesses.

He reveals 

• How Covid and 2020 effected online business purchases and sales. 
• Who's on a buying spree
• What to expect when buying a business in today's market.
• How EF Capital is helping to match investors and investor/operators up and create a winning synergy
• And how EmpireFlippers is hiring . See more https://empireflippers.com/careers

If you're sick of building a business and ever thought that buying one might be an option for you, tune in now.

If you ever struggled to answer the apparently easy question "What do I want?" Then this is for you.

If you know what you'd like to have, but you don't know what would DRIVE YOU, then this is for you.

I've personally struggled with this question from time to time and recently helped a client work through this. 

This is a short solo episode with a few steps you can go through to help answer that question for you.

At then end I posed a question for you...

If I hosted a virtual workshop that went over this process in a lot more detail, so you could help discover what drives you and avoid the frustrating confusion of not being able to answer that question, would you be interested?  If so, email brad@baconwrappedbusiness.com and mention this episode and say "tell me more" 

Ever imagine what it would be like to own a second home (or two) in an international resort or vacation location?

• Would you want to buy it to live in a country with a lower cost of living while enjoying the high life of a condo on the beach?
• Would you rent it out and cash in on high yields in high demand locales?
• Would you do a combination of both? Live there for a few months and rent it out the rest of the year?

This has been an investment strategy I've recently been pursuing and I invited the founder of Real Estate Trend Alert (RETA), Ronan McMahon on the show today to discuss how his company provides the information, tools and access to deeply discounted deals before they're presented to the public.

Ronan McMahon is editor of Real Estate Trend Alert (RETA) and a global real estate scout. He spends six months of every year on the road, finding and negotiating opportunities to buy low and make serious profit from capital appreciation, rental income, or a mixture of both.

He does this both for his own personal real estate portfolio and for members of Real Estate Trend Alert. Only RETA get details of the best deals he finds worldwide—in Latin America, Europe, and Asia.

One of his biggest strengths is identifying markets that are due for an upswing in values—but where other investors aren’t looking yet.

I am a paying subscriber to their service and use it to educate myself on the possibilities of investing and potentially living overseas and I've gotten tremendous value from their resources.

But in addition to the education, Ronan and his team scour these countries and leverage their relationships with established developers to create incredible deals on pre-development real estate in what Ronan calls “the path of progress.”

Ronan also has a brilliant business model because he travels the world looking at real estate opportunities and leverages the RETA membership to secure these discounted investment properties, while sharing in the revenue from the developers.

It's a win-win-win situation.

• Developers win because they receive a surge of demand and pre-sales for the properties they want to develop, thus de-risking their investment
• RETA member-investors win because the economies of scale from the RETA memberships
• Ronan and his team win because they get paid for providing valuable deals and connecting investors with developers.

In this episode episizzle you'll hear me satisfy my own selfish curiosity (as always) but it will also get your wheels turning about how you might be able to create a profitable business by matching up supply with demand.

Tax strategy can be a very dry discussion for most entrepreneurs. After all, we love creating new dollars, marketing and growth strategies which make it rain.

But if you have a leaky bucket, all the rain will drain to the ground and you'll be left with a lot less than you made.

But what if there were a way to reduce taxes or even eliminate them altogether the way many Fortune 500 companies do it?

There is a way, in fact there are dozens of ways and strategies that are perfectly legal yet often ignored.

That's why I invited Steve Moskowitz on the show today to discuss little-known strategies to help avoid (not evade) taxes.

This is less of an interview and more of a conversation where you'll hear me ask specific situational examples that will show what's possible as well as how Steve thinks.

If you're on the fence about this episode, wondering if the topic will be too dry to listen to, stop and give it a chance.

Because if you're in business now you could be missing a lot of money you could be owed now as well as paying a lot that you could avoid.

About Steve Moskowitz

Steve started Moskowitz LLP because he saw that while big corporations were consistently navigating the tax code to their advantage, smaller businesses and individuals were not. With prior experience as a CPA at a national accounting firm, and with extensive experience in the corporate world, Steve knew he could help smaller businesses and individuals by applying what he knew. He wanted to make a critical difference in businesses and individual lives that protected them from the powerful government and enabled them to keep and enjoy the fruits of a lifetime of work that otherwise could be taken away from clients by the government in just one action.

Today – together with a full team of tax attorneys, CPAs, enrolled agents and other professional staff – Moskowitz LLP helps business and individual clients across the country and overseas to resolve a wide variety of tax matters. The Moskowitz LLP team also creates strategies to utilize the tax code and relevant treaties to clients’ benefit, and provides ongoing tax support and tax return preparation. Unlike most firms, Moskowitz LLP clients pay a flat fee and are not subject to hourly rates.

Today we explore a saving and investment concept strategy that has proven to bring many advantages over traditional methods. It's called the Bank On Yourself strategy, made popular by author and advisor Pamela Yellen which uses a little-known type of insurance policy which provides guaranteed growth and tax advantages. 

I invited advisor Sarry Ibrahim on the show today to discuss how these policies work, who they're appropriate for and how to get the most out of them.
