Speaker reframes investing as primarily a risk-management business rather than simply "investing." Introduces the concept of "wealth maps"—frameworks to assess position and guide adjustments—and highlights cyclical maps (empire, currency, economic, market cycles) as important tools for investors, particularly in real estate.
As an investor, you're essentially in the risk management business. Most people don't know that. They think that they're in the investing business. Oh, I'm just going to invest. You are in the risk management business. And if you look at how the top, top investors do it, they all know this. They all know that they're in the risk management business, and they understand. You know, I call them wealth maps. So wealth map, it's frameworks that you can use to kind of, like, see where you're at and where you, if you need to make adjustments to go where you want to go. So the wealth maps that I talk about is a lot of, like, cyclical stuff. You know, you have empire cycles, you have currency cycles, you have economic cycles, you have market cycles. These are maps that you should take a look at.
