    The $40 Trillion Problem: How to Take Full Control of Your Retirement w/Damion Lupo

    Most Americans put their money into retirement accounts and believe it will be enough when they need it. They don’t engage with it and it starts to feel a lot like Monopoly money.
     
    You’re handing your wealth over to a system you don’t know, like or understand. You trust advisors, rely on hope, and never get your cash to truly work for you.
     
    It’s America’s $40 trillion problem.
     
    The system is designed to feed off the cash that’s sitting in these retirement accounts. An out of sight, out of mind approach doesn’t work for your wealth - it robs you of opportunity and leaves you with regret.
     
    Damion Lupo identified this problem and is revolutionizing retirement as we know it. Ultimately, wealth is created when you solve the problems of the 99%. How did his business journey begin at 11? What did he learn from being $5 million in debt? Why is chasing impact the fastest path to cash?
     
    In this episode, the financial mentor, podcast host, best selling author, and founder of EQRP, shares how he’s fixing retirement and revolutionizing construction.
     
    Most people put money into their retirement accounts and just hope it will be enough when they’re 65 years old. -Damion Lupo
     
    Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode 
     
    -Pressure creates purpose 
    All successes are built on failures. What did Damion learn from losing $20 million and ending up $5 million in debt? How did he turn a low point into a point of transformation?
     
    -Don’t park your money, engage with it 
    Not having control over your retirement isn’t the only problem people have. They also don’t know what to do with the money once they have that control. How is Damion solving this problem?
     
    -Focus on impact and the money takes care of itself
    True wealth and purpose is created by solving huge problems. How did Damion Lupo end up in an opportunity that benefits consumers, the real estate industry and even the environment?

True Mentor!

Chris is one of a kind, he practiced what he preached. Big time Money mentor but very friendly, reachable, genuinely willing to help especially to a rookie individuals with tight/limited funds. I’m so blessed I stumbled on TMM. Started following them then I got a paradigm shift. Started my first policy, got delayed due to health record issues but I didn’t give up because I truly understand what’s on the other side & their support. Now, I’m on to my 2nd policy. My 2 boys even my wife who has a high wall when it comes with non traditional money topics routinely talked to me about finance planning now. Loved it! Keep it coming Chris you’re on 🔥 🤙🏼

Don’t Miss the Boat

I came across Chris and his excitement for the IBC on YouTube. Not knowing anything about the IBC, I purchased his books and was immediately drawn on how I could begin using this concept. During this same time I came across another amazing person Devin Burr aka Mr. Brrr, who has also taken the time to explain how he became involved and where he is today. This community is AMAZING! My only regret is that I wish I knew about this 20 years ago. But it is never to late to start!
