Ryan is one of those people that improves your life a little more every time you meet him. So, this podcast was partly a chance for me to do just that.There are SO many moments in this conversation where I paused and tried to tuck his wisdom away in a place I'd never forget it. Through family and life and business, Ryan has relentlessly pursued this idea of staying curious. And I'm absolutely certain that that quality has given him more opportunities than most people will have in an entire lifetime. It applies to the whole spectrum of life - the good moments AND the hard moments. Miss this episode and you'll miss a gift, no doubt.Ryan is the Co-Founder and CEO of Freedom Day Solutions, a private wealth management firm in Houston, Texas centered around the idea of determining and preparing for their client's "freedom day" - AKA the day when multiple streams of income exceed all expenses (needs and wants), and can last until the age of 100+. Last year, Ryan further developed this concept into a publicly traded ETF.Ryan describes himself on Twitter as a portfolio manager, a Wall St. escapee, a "Smuggler of Goods," and a dad of 5 in the memory making business.As an extension of his firm's culture, Ryan and his team developed the "GRIN-dex" - an index for peace of mind, which he believes is found when you finally know the answer to exactly “How Much is Enough?”www.freedomdaysolutions.com
