Believe it or not, this was a fun episode (considering we were discussing insurance).  
I quiz insurance expert Rani Alfers on the following questions about insurance:
What are the different types of insurances needed for business owners?
How are driver-less cars going to impact insurance rates?
What are other things I should consider (other than price) when buying insurance?
What does an umbrella policy cover?
How are insurance companies leveraging big data to improve their underwriting process and potentially lower costs for low risk insureds?
I learned a lot and I hope you will as well. 
Enjoy!

Today I interview self published author Tarsha Lynch of two books, "George's Daughter" and "The Dream is Free".
The crazy part is she wrote them and the same time!
We discussed why she decided to write two books, the process involved in self-publishing, and what her books are about. 
I love talking to people who create a goal and set out to actually do it.  This was an inspiring interview.  
I hope you enjoy it.

FAQ about Stone Hill Wealth Management
 
 

I had the chance to go live to talk about Marriage and Money in the "Unbreakable Coard (Marriage Ministry)" FB group.
It was a live Q&A.  
Here are a few questions that were asked: 
1) Should we combine finances, manage separately or some combination?
2) How do I get my spouse serious about being financially responsible?
3) Should one spouse pay all the bills and the other spouse do what they want with their money?
4) How should we handle decisions about money with children from another marriage?
This is one of the toughest topics to speak on because of the huge impact money has on marriages. 
Enjoy it and let me know your thoughts.

FAQ about Stone Hill Wealth Management

For the last few years my buddy David Darty (owner of Starchie's cleaners in Cedar Hill, Texas) and I have meet Friday morning coffee to discuss business strategy, investing, and marketing. 
We've had some interesting and mind expanding conversations and have been looking for ways to let others into the conversations we have weekly.  
That led to a 5 to 7 episode Vlog on a Facebook page we created (Capital Hill Vlog) then we got too busy.  
Now (when we can) we are going to just go live on Facebook and post the recordings on my podcast.  
I hope you get a nugget of wisdom (or just a good laugh from our occasional banter).  

“Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years.” -Bill Gates
This is one of my favorite quotes to go back to when I'm feeling impatient and anxious because I'm not hitting my short term goals.  
It's easy to look for short cuts, get discouraged, and/or quit when you don't feel you're where you should.
My guest today lives that Bill Gates quote. 
His stage name is RIFICA (He's a Christian Hip Hop artist from Houston, Texas...my hometown).
We discuss his current journey to make his impact on the cutlture through Hip Hop, acting, and modeling.
Enjoy the episode and let me know your thoughts.

"Are you on track to retire comfortably?"

So many of the professionals I meet day to day who are making incomes significantly above average are involved somehow in tech...and I'm not talking about start up founders.
I'm going to start interviewing many of those professionals to showcase other "non sexy" ways to get into tech for those interested.
On this episode I interview Bo Amao who is a M&A IT project manager (a profession I didn't even know existed until 3 weeks ago) and we discuss his career, how he got into, and what to do if this type of career interests you.  
Enjoy!
Warning: We did go a little nerd for a few minutes during the interview.  Don't judge us!

"Are you on track to retire comfortably?"

So many people want to be entrepreneurs these days. 
Many believe if you're good in business (or want to be good in business) then entrepreneurship is the only route.  
Not true. 
There are many great executives who in my opinion are among the some the best business people of all time who never started their own business:
Jamie Dimon (CEO of Chase Bank)
Sheryl Sandberg (COO of Facebook)
Jack Welch (Former CEO of GE in their HeyDay)
Ted Sarandos (Chief Content Officer of Netflix)
To name a few.
My guest today, Jesse Jackson, is one of those superstar executives with a great business mind.  
I believe anyone interested in growing as a business person will get a ton of value from this episode.  
Enjoy!

So many people want something for nothing.  
Love with no sacrifice.
Financial independence without investing.
The profits of a successful business without putting in lots and lots and lots of emotionally painful work.  
Let me let you in on a secret...counting on getting something for nothing is a bad strategy.
Just about everything worth it in life takes work and that's the main message of today's Podcast guest Benaisha Poole-Watson (Co-owner of the Bailey Watson Real Estate Group)
She is dominating the local real estate market here in DFW and I'm confident you will learn something by listening.

The only way to grow and maintain a successful business is by having good, qualified people to help you execute your mission.
On this episode I get a chance to speak with the CEO of Crown Consulting Services, Tiffanie Plummer, about how to attract and retain those people.  
This is one of my weaknesses in business so I definitely enjoyed this conversation and learned a lot. 
I know you will as well.  
 
 

What's the difference between a copyright, a patent, and a trademark?
I literally didn't know the difference before this interview with Intellectual Property Protection expert, Kandace Walter (Owner of Walter Legal PLLC).
On this episode we also discussed how to think about protecting your IP in this internet society where information, pictures, and videos are shared so freely.
If you think your business has intellectual property you would like to protect, you will really enjoy this episode!
