Favorite Martin Krung Quote

“The crypto market was filled with narratives people tell... you imagine this is the next big thing, and you buy the token. If it hits, then you make money until the story doesn't add up, and the price drops. It's an interesting force; however, we are not affected by it anymore.” - Martin Krung

Favorite Demian Voorhagen Quote

“I like meeting new people. It's a nice way to network. Some people I can help in just one call. I see it a bit as paying it forward. I just help them in one call. And at some point, they might return a favor and if not, that's also fine. Maybe they can return it to someone else.” - Demian Voorhagen

Ryan Coisson: Building Wealth and Managing Risk

Please welcome Ryan Coisson, whom I've known for more than 10 years, to the show. He's a digital business owner, content marketer, outdoor adventurer, and finance whiz.

Ryan is a pro at creating high-level processes, including planning and building specific — and I mean very, very specific — actionable steps to achieve the goals around those financial plans.

He's also just a nice guy. That's why he agreed to join me today.

We spent a ski season in Whistler, Canada, living together in a shared chalet with entrepreneurs. Since then, our paths have crossed, diverged, and then crossed again.

I asked him to come on the show to talk about one of his companies, Perfect Biz, as well as some of the other projects he's involved with, like Online Option and more on finance and investing.

I hope you enjoy this show as much as I enjoyed recording it.

Favorite Ryan Coisson Quote "Winning the game to me looks like creating what I would call an income engine. So a portfolio that generates income for me now. I want that income to do a few things: continually growing, be safe and stable, and be diversified across different sectors." Additional Resources
