It's great to have you on the show. Welcome back to the Lifestyle Investor. Very few people that I brought on for second round and of course it makes total sense that you'd be here. And I'm excited to kind of hear what's going on with you and what's going on in your world as you've been devouring anything and everything AI.
Well, first of all, thank you so much and I made something for you. I literally made it a couple moments ago and I want to just show you something and show you where the state of AI is and just demonstrate some of my favorite tools. So this is what to pay attention to for 2025. If you want to get attention, you want to build and grow a brand, if you want to stand out. And again, we're just going to go through how to even negotiate using AI as your best friend. So let's begin with a little goodie I made for you.
I love it. Well, I think everyone needs to get better at enhancing their negotiating skills. So what better way to do that than to utilize AI as part of it?
Right on. So the first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to entertain you because I want to grab your attention. And this is exactly how I grabbed the attention of 7,000 kids on stage. So I made you a song, Justin, called Lifestyle Investor and.
Oh, nice.
In the style of Eminem. Here it goes. Sweat. Yeah. Whoa. Yeah.
Look, I'm gonna teach you about financial freedom, Justin Donald's way, not what they feed you. Building wealth while you catching Z passive income streams. That's the key, bro. I don't really like that one as much. Let's listen to the second one.
I don't really like that one either. I don't know about you. What do you say we make something different?
All right, let's do it.
All right.
They're both fun. To me, I think they're all fun.
It's quite all right. So I'm going to just show you a little thing that you can do. And this is a tool called suno. And why am I showing you this is because sometimes the best way to open up someone's mind is to capture their attention, capture and make something about them and for them. So this is also a way to attract high quality customers. But if I just type in and say I want you to write a song about Justin Donald and the Lifestyle Investor in the style of. Give me one of your favorite musical performers. Ooh.
If we're going just regular rock, I mean, U2 is pretty high on my list. Coldplay is pretty high on my list.
Uh huh. Great. YouTube or Coldplay? Let's pick one or the other one.
Let's go. You too.
All right, there we go. Freedom Road in the style view too. So there are the lyrics. Almost done already. And I can copy those. I can go to this tool called suno. SUNO is a tool that actually makes music and it'll write lyrics for you. But I like to write them ahead of time. They're a little bit better. I can't say in the style. YouTube for the style. It's going to trigger some copyright triggers. But I will say an anthem style. 1999 rock with guitar, vocals, heavy drums and bass. So we'll call this lifestyle investor v2 hit create. And again, you're looking at this going, yeah, where's the big value here? I promise we build on top of this, but in about 20 seconds, it's writing the music, it's creating a synthetic voice, it's building the entire band and creating two songs. And by the way, this is the fastest, easiest way to connect with kids or old people because I make music for them before we meet.
That's pretty fun.
Underneath the open sky where the winds of change collide. All right, you get the idea anyway. Yeah, I'll send you the tunes. Sometimes they turn out really great, sometimes not, but. Are you ready for another nugget here?
Well, regardless, it's really incredible what you can do. I mean, I was playing around with this, I guess probably maybe a couple Months ago and I was just blown away. We were doing some ballads, we created all kinds of stuff. I mean, you could do this for fun. Like we were kind of joking around and creating some humor out of it. I mean, the ability here using AI, it's incredible what we can do.
Totally. I'm going to lead to the big money stuff as we move along. But like I said, I always like to grab a little attention with something sort of fun.
That's fine.
I'm going to show you. Justin is a tool that I use to research people and also whenever I want to understand something about them. Now, the full disclosure is they need to have some kind of an online presence, but it doesn't require a lot.
Okay.
I use this. One of the best AIs for doing human research, in my opinion, and research in general that has citations is Perplexity.
Love Perplexity. I'm an early investor in Perplexity, actually.
Oh, it's so good. Good job on you, man. So this tool, this is the prompt. So give me a complete background dossier for Justin Donald. He wants me to sell his business or whatever the context is. You put it in here, tell me everything about him, his personal life, interest, likes, past deals that will help me build trust and engagement, negotiate positively and ethically. And then here's the interesting add 10 tip using Chris Voss's best negotiation strategy.
Oh, that's good. That's fun.
Let's go over and see what this thing does because that's a prompt, by the way. I'll make sure I give all your viewers, listeners a link to this so they can actually use it themselves. We're going to head over to our wonderful Perplexity. And this by the way, is the tool I have running on my phone. There's an action button on your phone and I actually program it to launch Perplexity with one click. This is my go to. Go to for everything.
Yeah, 100%. This became what I use instead of Google. So if you're going to Google something, you just Perplexity. It. It's so much better.
It is a Google killer. But I'm going to show you something that's even better in a moment that'll blow your skull. Okay, so here's the answer. It tells you who you are. Personal life, professional careers, investment and business ventures. Okay. Achievements. Okay. Interests, values, negotiation tips. Okay. Use selective word mirroring. Repeat keywords. There we go. Employee tactical empathy, which I think is true. Calibrated questions, open ended questions, late night fm, DJ voice. Is that true? You like the late night DJ voice.
I don't think so, but who knows?
Trigger. That's right. Moment. Okay. Voiding. Yes. And aim for how. You are very much a how guy.
Yes. 100%.
Oh, fair. If Justin mentions fairness, address it immediately. Prevent. Okay. I don't know about that. Leverage power. No. Allow Justin to feel in control. That. Let him say no. I think that's true. Look for hidden motivators in Justin's decision to sell. Use labeling and validating motions. Okay.
All right.
My instincts are it's pretty accurate, but what I do is I'll ask a couple more add on questions and something else. It'd be like I'm about to do a podcast interview with Justin Donald, period. My name is Mike Koenigs and I have the Capability Amplifier podcast with Dan Sullivan. And we want to communicate effectively to business owners and founders who can potentially become great customers for Justin Donald and his investment mastermind.
Yeah, I love how specific you are.
Yes. This is the secret. The key to using AI effectively is knowing how to ask great questions. Just like every part of life, you're a master of great question asking, but it does some great research. It's looking up some of your top content and look at that. Highlight your journey. Blue collar achievement of retiring at age 37. Okay. Lifestyle investor. Lifestyle. Okay. But then now it didn't give me specific questions. Now I want you to create 10amazing questions that I can ask him about passive income generation, the top investments to make for 2025, and something controversial like cryptocurrency and Warren Buffett.
Okay.
Anyway, I'm just making stuff up, Right? You're just having a conversation. But just like that. Okay, you mastered the art. So three passive income opportunities. This isn't unlike what we did in our recent podcast.
Yeah, this is awesome. By the way, our podcast was a ton of fun. Just a moment ago, we kind of went back to back and we thought it'd be fun to kind of geek out here real quick on all the AI tools and all the capabilities, all the things that we can be doing as entrepreneurs and those working in corporate America, like just to get ahead, just to get an edge, just to make life a little bit easier. So I love that we're doing this kind of walkthrough and tutorial I had Jeff woods on. He recently wrote a book. He's part of the AI community that we're in and he's a good friend. And so we had him speak at our lifestyle investor retreat just last week. And his book is fantastic. And so we kind of dug into a whole bunch of things like this and. But you're going down a different path of like all the different things you can do, all the different tools that are available. And so I want to keep exploring these because this is fun and I, I know our audience is eager to learn and get better at AI.
Well, here's what I'm going to do then. I'm going to go down a pathway. One of the things that I've been doing, what we did is just imagine when we were working on Lifestyle Investor Brand, it was all us, just hardcore asking questions, going back and forth, dialoguing. And now what my team and I do is we get a whole bunch of AIs capturing everything all at once and we're building brands, presentations, books, literally in real time. And what I'm going to show you right now is a breakthrough tool. There are multiple programs like this, but it's the one I like the most. And I want to preface this by asking you, Justin, what's a challenge that you want to solve right now? That solving this problem would help you generate more awareness for your brand, more income, attract higher quality customers, or anything else that's on your mind? Because I'm going to show you a stack of different tools that are like having genius level PhDs at your fingertips, but knowing how to command them and get the best out of them.
That's a great question. You know, I would say, I guess one thing we could do is just say, hey, how do we find the perfect fit for our Mastermind? I mean, we've been a bit of a wait list for Lifestyle Investor, but we're opening it up here in the new year to add some new prospective members to it. And we're not going to do it in a huge format, but maybe it's finding, you know, how do we find the best fit Mastermind members for us to continue to up level our community with?
Great. So I'm going to convert what you just asked into a more specific prompt and then we're going to consult with six genius level IQs simultaneously who are all operating in separate offices and get the answer in a couple moments. And then we're going to create some marketing material on the fly. But I'm also going to show you how to digest massive volumes of content that would help you attract them faster. That's a triple human prompt there. But let's begin by looking at your site. Okay, so there it is. And we got Mastermind. So this is our target, is we want to attract more people to this. Well, look at that. We still have a picture of us in there.
We do.
Sweet. Are you? Man, you're the best. So this is some of the great information. So what I like to do often, and this is one of my shortcuts, is I'm going to select all the copy and content in your entire website. Okay. And then over here I always have some sort of transcription tool running simultaneously. So I am going to show you how I take this and I literally could just take your information and feed that into six genius level IQs. Okay. So first of all, I'm going to just paste all the body copy for your website inside here. All right?
Yeah. And I see you've got ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Ms. Copilot, Perplexity, Grok.
Yeah. This is a tool called Chathub. There's another one called P.O. that does something similar. But I'm going to go back over to a very vague prompt. Really, I'm going to reword it just a little bit. Okay. So I'm going to go to the bottom here and craft a prompt.
My name is Justin Donald and I am known as the lifestyle investor. Period. I help business owners, founders, entrepreneurs and investment minded professionals achieve passive income with very specific lifestyle and investment strategies. I want to fill my mastermind up with perfect right fit clients who are most likely members of professional business communities, masterminds and entrepreneurial minded organizations like EO, YPO, Tiger 21. I want you to examine my website copy and help me identify 10 potential high value audiences that I can communicate with and attract to introduce them to my mastermind, my books and my podcast. That's pretty damn good prompt there.
Yeah, that's great. You might want to update the EO and YPO and put a comma in there.
Oh, okay. It doesn't care.
Okay. It can figure it out.
So over here, here's what happened. So Ms. Copilot, puke because there was too much content chat. GPT is running. Gemini already ran. Here's Claude, here's Perplexity and here's Grok. So Perplexity is really good for this kind of research. So it already found YPO already find Tiger 21B and I, I don't know about that Growth Mentor. You heard of that now? Okay, haven't heard of that. Meetup Gears for Investing. Okay. The Entrepreneur Mastermind Meet Up Group of South Florida Leadership. Okay. I don't know. Forbes business council, maybe Inc 5000 private business associations. Okay. High Net Worth Investor Communities. Yeah, I'm going to just say that Wasn't good enough. I want you to be more specific with specific organizations and research them and reflect on your output before sharing it with me. Now this is a cute little phrase. It's reflect on your output. That effectively is telling the AI to think about what it's going to show you.
Okay. Before it's awesome seeing all six of these models running at the same time.
Isn't it freaking great. And Grok by the way, as of it still is as far as I know. Unless yesterday it changed. But Groq Grok is the fastest AI because they're sitting on top of custom hardware. You didn't happen to invest in them, did you?
Yes, so I have. Basically there have been a couple of different rounds, but even if you were an original investor in Twitter, they split that off.
Wow, that is awesome. I did not know that. That is awesome. Okay, so here we go. It told us like I can't believe the chat. GPT told us stuff we already knew. Right. Because I fed it that Claude is telling us. Okay, here we go. Founders Fund. Okay, this one's really good. So Founders Fund and it's member profile and fit, strategic values, specific approaches. And then down here GROK had some really good solid organizations as well. So what I often do is, is I'll copy the results from the top three and ask it to synthesize the best results into something useful.
Yeah, I've noticed that the key is to continue to reiterate over and over and over. Right. To just pouring into, you know, you're trying to extract even more gold.
Yep. Now I'm going to show you something else and I'll show you how I went about doing this. I'll just create a follow up question and I'll say now I want you to create a two minute script for Justin Donald that could be played at the introduction of a tiger 21 or other business minded organization like you've mentioned that will establish him as an authority in investing and in risk reduction and all of the content that was described in the website and open with a specific quote from one of his most valuable customers.
So the whole idea is we stack on top of this over and over again. So what we've got here is a quote, an opening grabber and this is how you know, we start creating some sizzle reels. Perplexity is cranking Grok there. Now let me show you what I did with this. There's a tool, it's called InVideo AI and earlier I just did another script and I fed that into this tool and what it does is it can take any kind of script and make a completely synthetic video, kind of like Suno. That's why I start with Suno. So I'll be a synthetic voiceover. It'll grab royalty free music, it'll create the narration, do all of the generative video creation, or you can also tell it, hey, I want you to grab royalty free video and music.
That's really incredible what you can do these days. It's just unbelievable. I mean, we're at a point where if I wanted to, I could literally run my own podcast without running my podcast. I mean, they could put people in there. It can have people talking. It's absolutely nuts.
Yeah, it totally is. While we're waiting for that to render, I'm going to show you one of my other favorite tools that I promised. If you're in a spot, and you are in a spot, for example, where you digest and synthesize massive volumes of information, you're really, really good at it and you have a massive library of content. Lots and lots of podcasts, you've got your book, you got all this stuff. Have you played around with Notebook LM yet?
A little bit, yeah. A little bit, yeah. It's cool. And we can dive into that if you want to as well. I mean, that's also an incredible AI product.
It's amazing and it's just gotten better. So I'm going to log into one of my accounts now. One thing to know about NotebookLM is I'll tell people upfront. They're always worried about, what about my content? What about my content? What about my content? And the answer is, well, if you use the free version with your free Gmail account, you're training the AI. If you have your own domain in with Google, it doesn't train the AI. But I'm going to start with a notebook of a client, Charlie Epstein.
I love Charlie. I had him on the podcast as well. He's a blast and hysterical.
He's unbelievably funny and he's working on a new program. We've been working with him on a military financial literacy program.
Oh, cool.
I'm going to click on a link here and just show you inside here we have days of transcripts, we have notes that have been taking tons and tons of snapshots of content all in one place. Okay. One of the things that you can do with this is tell it to create a podcast for you. You can also say, hey, look, as soon as you load it up. So for example, you can load up to 50 different sources of content. So, for example, if I were Justin Donald, what I do is I'd identify all the top sources of content that might have some information in it that I want to study. So you could basically drop in 50 episodes of your top competitors or some of the thought leaders in your space with YouTube links. Can also link your Google Drive, which are slides and documents which can be hundreds of pages long. We've done a medical application with thousands of medical transcripts. So you just pop this stuff in here and then you go into studio, and I'm going to play what it does. But if you click a button, it'll create a podcast that synthesizes all this information together and you can tell it what you want it to talk about. So listen to this.
All right. Looks like we're diving into a mountain.
Of personal finance resources today. You aren't kidding about wanting to level up your money game.
Articles, tips, wow, even a whole financial literacy course. Yeah, it's a lot to unpack. I know. But, hey, that's what we're here for, right?
Well, employee.
To take out a loan if they had to, just to have that peace of mind.
The employee. So the important part of this is as a study tool, especially for ADHD people, you could grab 50 sources, 50 websites, have it summarized, and you can listen to it while you're working out. Hyper Personal Podcast.
That's incredible. Like, even if you're not creating your own content, it's going to synthesize days, you know, months of content into like 20 minutes.
Yep. It's astonishing. And creating these briefing docs, study guides, FAQs. My son, for example, is a film student. He had 140 pages of content that he needed to review about film noir. And I showed him this, and this is one of the tools that helped him learn. And he's super adhd. So here we go. Summaries. So this is how I can digest and learn just about anything about anyone and their entire body of work in less than an hour. It's a massive, massive shortcut.
Yeah. That's awesome.
Yep. So I'm going to show you one other. This is the video it made. I'm not saying it's good, because I haven't watched this either, Justin, but this is what Nvidia created with just some nuggets of a script. Now, this is four minutes, so it's too long. I wasn't explicit. But let's just see what we got here.
We all crave it. That elusive feeling that seems Just out of reach. That feeling of true freedom, the kind that lets you wake up every day with a sense of purpose and joy, not just financial.
Okay, first of all, the guy's voiceover is boring right away. Sometimes he hits, sometimes he miss. But fortunately, you can edit with text, but I'll just play a little bit more anchaly.
But freedom of time, freedom of choice, the ability to decide how you spend your days. Justin. Donald, my friend, he gets it. He understands the essence of living life on your own terms. He didn't just stumble into wealth. He meticulously planned and executed it. He saw opportunities where others saw obstacles. He embraced challenges and turned them into stepping stones. And not by grinding away, but by redefining the game entirely. Justin saw the lie, the conventional wisdom that tells us to trade our time for money, the one that tells us we have to trade time for money, sacrifice today for a tomorrow that may never come. He rejected that notion. Instead, he built a different path. He built a life where his money works hard.
This isn't bad. It's not bad.
Yeah. I'm very impressed. I'm beyond impressed.
Okay. I could go on and on with tools, but now I want you to drive this, Justin. How can I create the most value for your audience and the most value for you? And you're good at asks, so let's think of some more things to create or solve.
Yeah, well, I mean, you're kind of like the maestro. You're the mad scientist, always coming up with these great ideas. One of our projects that we're working on right now is growing our email list. It has exploded in the last couple of years, but we're actually doubling down on a couple of things this year. Number one is having more of a presence on YouTube and actually creating content that's YouTube, YouTube base. And number two is growing our newsletter. And so we've got a really cool AI newsletter that we've built out, and we've got a ton of people. We kind of have two different. We're split, testing a couple different email lists and newsletters that we do. But those are probably the two big areas that we're doubling down on.
So I'm going to show you something really fast. I'm going to go to my own podcast channel. I'll be the first one to say growing a podcast channel is freaking hard. It just is. And mine right now, I'll bring up my channel and I'm going to show you one of the best tools.
Gentleman who's a dear friend of mine.
He'S Helped me immensely. And he's been a consultant to some of the biggest companies in the world.
Here's a guy that started literally from nothing. I know that voice. Yeah.
Oh my God, what a lucky break. But here's the current channel. And.
Let'S see, is this the right one? Okay, yeah. 10,500 subscribers, but it's grown substantially. And part of that is all about creating thumbnails. Now this is a little bit more, but I can show you a quick image hack. I mean, you've got professionals. So this is one of those, if you don't quite have a professional. But I'm going to show you another really effective tool for channel growth that I think is just remarkable. It's how to mass create shorts. And we can literally take our podcast that we're doing right now, feed it into this tool, and it'll find all of the biggest things that people are searching for. Auto edit, auto cut and auto publish for us. Wow, it's so good.
This is the holy grail of social media posts.
It is really, really effective. So I'll show you two things here. So one of them is I'm going to pop into it. It's called Opus. It's Opus Pro. And what you can do is grab any link to any video and paste it in. So let's say for example, if I did Justin, Donald, Mike Koenigs. All right, and I'll find our original podcast interview. Look at that. Three years ago. Can you believe it? So I copy this boom. And I could go over to Opus and paste it in. Or you can just upload a video. It doesn't care. And what it does is it grabs it and it sucks the video down. Or you can upload anything. All right, it's got this clip anything mode. You click on get clips in. One click and it's gonna again search through and find all the most frequently searched for everythings. And I'm going to show you specifically what it produces. Okay, this is a new podcast that we just did with a couple that I actually want to introduce you to. It's Mimi who and Lou Reese. They have a vaccine that prevents Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and hiv. They've had two multibillion dollar exits and two that were just sub billion. They're freaking rock stars of epic proportion. So here's what happened. It analyzed our video and it Autocut made a 30 second clip. Let's see if it's any good. I haven't looked at it yet. Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, which my mom Just died of nine days ago as of today. And also hiv. So these diseases collectively cost the US over a trillion dollars annually. And Mei Mei and Lou aren't just here to talk. They're here to disrupt their track records. So it grabbed a hooky intro and it tells us that it scores it.
Yeah, 99 out of 100.
Yep. And then you can click one button and it will publish on social. Wow, here we go. Drug prices exploded six times higher since 2000. All right. And you know, in the last 20 years, basically drug spend has exploded. I think it's like six times that of what was in 2000. And, you know, we got more expensive drugs, we have harder access. They got to go. It's pretty hooky. My mom's 10 years. All right, I didn't even know I talked about that. Why are US drug prices 10 times higher?
Right. Why do we pay 10 times more for drugs we made than anywhere else in the world? Right.
And one of the passions that we have is actually fixing that.
So because of our cost of goods.
We can give America disruptively low priced.
Drugs and we can sell those at.
You get the idea?
That's incredible. That's a game changer. It's interesting to think about, like how on earth does it figure out what clips to take? That's unbelievable. And it grades it.
Yeah. It just simply comes down to a massive intelligence has downloaded all of human knowledge. And it's not just one AI. It's many, many, many of these large language models. It knows what we talk about, what we care about, what we like. It's analyzed every statistical byproduct of human behavior. If you choose to use it wisely, I think it's the most remarkable creative companion ever. And you can literally make dreams come true in a matter of minutes. I couldn't compose a song or perform it. I still would prefer to go watch a live band. And people are like, oh my God, what's going to happen? It's like, hey, look, I want to watch and listen to real musicians. And I do it all the time. I was just doing it last night. It's not a replacement. It's an enhancement. This is to be more human and more kind, and it is scary.
Well, this is very eye opening and really fun and really cool. Mike, where can people learn more about you? Where can they learn? Where can they find out what you're up to and just get in touch with you? By the way, right now you're in Pescadero at your condo outside of Cabo San Lucas.
Yes.
So earlier, for the episode we recorded on your show, which I may release that and launch that on my podcast as well, because we got to go through what I think are the biggest niches and invisible deals and opportunities coming up, and I want to share that with our community. But you're outside and it's gorgeous there, you know? Are you just loving Pescadero?
This is genuinely so I'm going to just again, acknowledge you because ever since we worked together, I've worked my ass off my whole life. I came from poor people just like you did. Right. And I really, really took everything we've ever done seriously. And Vivian and I are so committed to lifestyle. So the answer is we're right now in Pescadero. We've got three and a half acres here, right next to a mutual friend, and we are a couple hundred feet from the ocean and we're going to live here part time. We're also becoming Mexican citizens. We just applied to become Croatian citizens. We're getting our EU passports. We've been building a penthouse in Malaga, Spain. We're in Latin countries. We're loyal, loving Americans and we love options and freedom.
Yes.
And the nice thing is this is an experiment. I'm using Starlink and it was so sunny I had to come inside, unfortunately. I wanted to be an appropriate lifestyle investor guest. But the net net is you can literally live anywhere and take this little satellite dish with you and boom, all you need is a little bit of juice and you get solar for that. Water and electricity is what it takes.
So I love it.
I love it, too. Thanks, man. So here's what I have. I have two guests. One of them is my book, AI Accelerator, which is free. And I set up a special link for your friends to get it for free. And you get the audiobook and some more trainings if you like this stuff. So it's@mike koenigs.com Justinai or AI Justin. AI Justin. I'll make sure both of them work. Okay. But I also have one other gift, and this is my book, your Next Act. And it's all about building brands and creating your next act. So if you're a founder like us, we're always reinventing, we're always trying to figure out where we're going to go next. The two together. It's like mindset and a framework. And the AI Accelerator teaches you how to think in AI talk in AI doesn't matter if you're a beginner, intermediate, or advanced, because I'm a marketing nerd. That's how I express it. But I over answered your question Justin. But that's the answer to the question.
Well I love it. Well, thanks for always hooking us up. You take care of the lifestyle investor community. I appreciate all you've done to help us create some cool content and you've extended one of our year end retreats and some of our other events.
It was so much fun. I want to come back. We walk in totally the same worlds and you've just done a remarkable, remarkable job of attracting high value, high quality human beings who are values driven and you're giving them the greatest gifts we all want and need, which is freedom. So back at you man.
Well, thanks so much Mike. This is a blast and I like ending every episode of the Question to our audience. So for those of you listening, take a chance and watch it. Watch it on YouTube so you can actually see all the cool stuff Mike was doing. But what is one step you can take today to move towards financial freedom and really move towards a life by design? AI seems like a no brainer of a tool and I hope you can take this one thing, one area, one of these little segments that Mike did and totally revolutionize your business, your life, your world, your relationships, create a new brand, whatever you want to do. But make a move, take a step and let's create some financial freedom together. Thanks so much and we'll catch you next week. Thanks for listening to the Lifestyle Investor podcast.
