About this episode

The episode discusses the 10-30-30-30 strategy for pilots to balance their investments and improve their wealth strategy.

Is your wealth strategy working together or pulling in different directions? Hosts Tait Duryea and Ryan Gibson unpack the 10-30-30-30 strategy for balancing cash, 401(k)s, real estate, tax benefits, and passive investments. They explain why liquidity, control, and tax strategy all matter, and how short-term rentals, syndications, oil and gas, and self-storage can fit into a pilot’s portfolio. Plus, they preview Passive Income Pilots Live in Las Vegas, a new event focused on financial education, estate planning, due diligence, and community.
