About this episode

Edward M. Brady discusses the STAR framework for achieving financial independence and building lasting wealth.

Edward M. Brady, CFA, a realtor and author of Awaken Your Financial Star, explains why high earners still feel financially insecure and how anyone can build lasting wealth using four simple principles: Savings, Time, Assets, and Returns (STAR). Drawing on 25 years as an SEC examiner, Brady shows how to avoid lifestyle creep, spot investment fraud, and treat money as a tool rather than a moral failing.
