  • Triple Net Investing 101: How to Generate Steady Returns in Uncertain Times

    Triple Net Investing 101: How to Generate Steady Returns in Uncertain Times
    May 20 2025
    What recourse do limited partners have when their fund is being mismanaged? Do triple net leases (NNN) offer safety in an uncertain economy? In this episode, we’re delving into a recent LP-led succession that underscores the latent power of passive investors and a low-risk investing strategy that delivers steady returns in volatile markets. Today, we’re joined by Zane Schartz, president of Freedom CRE and a specialist in single-tenant, triple net investing. After a coalition of LPs called upon Zane to stabilize their private equity fund, he spent months navigating an uncooperative handoff and enduring personal attacks. In this episode, he reflects on invaluable lessons learned from the “hardest year” of his life and shares how he’s now helping people build wealth through passive real estate investing. With institutional-grade tenants, long-term leases, and minimal operational requirements, NNN investments offer a rare blend of stability and simplicity. If you’re an LP looking to understand your rights or explore recession-resistant strategies like NNN real estate, today’s show delivers real-world insight from the front lines of a fund turnaround and its auspicious aftermath.

  • How to Create a Passive Income “Engine” That Gives You Financial Freedom

    How to Create a Passive Income “Engine” That Gives You Financial Freedom
    May 6 2025
    Conventional financial advice keeps you tethered to Wall Street, locking up all your cash in retirement accounts and home equity. But what if there’s a smarter way for passive investors to build wealth? In this episode, we explore the strategies financial institutions adopt but don’t advertise—like using high cash value, whole life insurance to unlock capital and create real passive income. Today, Russ Morgan and Joey Muré from Wealth Without Wall Street share how they’ve used over 30 whole life insurance policies to fund businesses, insure operators, and generate long-term wealth. They pull back the curtain on the infinite banking concept (IBC), a strategy for turning insurance into your own personal banking system, and demonstrate how your policy's cash value can outperform traditional investments. This approach isn’t about chasing death benefits—it’s about building an income engine that continues to grow even while you borrow against it. Russ and Joey will show you how to create your passive income operating system, choose the right policy, and break free from conventional thinking to achieve true financial freedom.
