If you've been consuming financial content but not seeing real results, this episode of Stockcast will challenge how you think about wealth, growth, and who you're becoming in the process. In this conversation, Andy Tanner reflects on powerful lessons learned from years of working closely with Robert Kiyosaki and Kim Kiyosaki—insights that go far beyond what's written in books.

You'll hear why personal transformation always comes before financial results, why strategy alone isn't enough, and how identity, mindset, and action determine long-term success. The discussion explores the idea that wealth isn't something you chase—it's something you grow into by changing how you think, decide, and act every day.

This episode also calls out one of the biggest traps in modern financial education: passive consumption. Watching videos, reading books, and following experts can feel productive, but without action, none of it creates wealth. Andy explains why progress requires participation, responsibility, and a willingness to apply what you learn.

If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure why knowledge hasn't translated into results, this episode offers a needed reset. It's not about doing more—it's about becoming the kind of person who builds wealth naturally.

If you've ever trusted the retirement system to protect your future, this episode of Stockcast will challenge that assumption. Andy Tanner breaks down how the modern retirement system—especially the rise of the 401(k)—was never intentionally designed to create financial security for individuals. Instead, it evolved through incentives that quietly shifted risk from institutions to everyday investors.

In this conversation, you'll learn how Wall Street fees, limited control, and a lack of financial education have left many people feeling uncertain about retirement—even after years of doing everything they were told was "right." Andy explains why following traditional advice often leads to frustration, why volatility hurts individual investors more than institutions, and how misunderstanding cash flow and risk can limit long-term freedom.

Rather than focusing on fear or predictions, this episode is about awareness and clarity. You'll be encouraged to ask better questions, understand how financial systems really work, and recognize where control over your money actually lies. The discussion also highlights why relying solely on paper assets may restrict flexibility and why financial intelligence matters more than blind participation.

If you want to take a more intentional approach to retirement and investing—one built on understanding rather than assumptions—this episode will help you rethink the path you're on.
