In This Episode:
In this episode of Breakaway Wealth, Jim speaks with Tad Fallows, entrepreneur and founder of Long Angle, a private community for individuals with $2.2M+ in investable assets. They discuss how wealth creators think about investing, raising children without entitlement, and maintaining purpose after a business exit.
- Portfolio strategy beyond Wall Street: High-net-worth individuals are moving away from traditional 60/40 portfolios, favoring private equity, real assets, and niche alternative investments for uncorrelated, equity-like returns.
- Post-exit risk mindset: Many entrepreneurs opt for higher-return, illiquid investments rather than de-risking, based on the belief that volatility is manageable when wealth exceeds basic needs.
- Raising children with financial independence: The most consistent concern among members of Fallows’ community is how to instill grit and self-sufficiency in children growing up with financial abundance.
If you’re serious about breaking away from conventional thinking and building lasting wealth, this conversation offers a clear window into how high-level entrepreneurs manage their capital, family, and future.
