  • Favorite podcast and incredible resource

    Topics are very relevant and hosts are very articulate! Really appreciate the straightforward explanations of strategies and breaking down difficult to understand concepts in an easy to digest manner. I’m not in the aviation industry but I found a lot of value in their asset protection and tax strategy interviews. Thank you for all the knowledge and this is my go-to podcast for my commute!

  • Expert insight into the world of alternative investments

    My financial advisor turned me onto this podcast and it’s incredible. They bring on experts every week to discuss every sector imaginable for investing. I have received so much valuable insight that I have applied to my own financial plan and I highly recommend this podcast to all of the fellow pilots that I fly with.

  • Game changing!

    This podcast reduced my taxable W2 income in half! Following their short term rental strategy and capturing bonus depreciation was a huge win for my taxes. Excellent knowledge base, and they host some top professionals in the fields of tax planning, real estate investing, and syndications. Thanks Tait & Ryan!

  • A must for pilots and high w2 earners

    Hey guys! I want to thank you and your guests for sharing strategies on how to create generational wealth from our industry! I always suggest your podcast when I fly with pilots that are interested in getting out of the high tax bracket and 401k trap. I hope to meet you both at an event in 2026.
