If cashflow is the name of the game, cashflow management is the filter of the flow… welcome Income Hackers! In today’s episode, we are talking CASH FLOW and how to properly manage it for wealth and success. Colton Lindsay will share with us the not so secret hacks about money like profiting first, making it work for you, and why you shouldn’t wait to buy real estate, but rather buy real estate and wait!

Colton shows his students how to achieve not only financial success, but also how to win from within by shifting your mindset.
We’ll dive deep into important topics such as getting financially literate and not delegating your success to others, investing in stocks and cryptos, speculation vs. investment, and even managing a “fun” account with your partner to spend away that extra income. Tune in and find out how knowing your WHY? and having a clear purpose will shift things forwards to start making the deals happen.
