Most people are chasing a retirement plan theyâll never enjoy â or even want. Derek Coburn is here to show you a more meaningful path that doesnât require you to escape your life to start enjoying it.
Derek is a best-selling author, founder of the Cadre mastermind, and a former financial advisor to ultra-wealthy clients. After 20+ years in the industry, he sold his firm, walked away from the grind, and redefined what true financial freedom looks like.
In this episode, Derek breaks down why the traditional model of retirement is outdated, inefficient, and in some cases, dangerously misleading. We explore smarter tax strategies the wealthy use to future-proof their income, the rising wave of âunretirement,â and why fulfillment doesnât come from chasing a number⊠but from showing up with purpose.
He also shares the story behind his newly released book, Letâs Retire Retirement, and reveals the $50,000 mindset shift that transformed how he shows up as a father, a leader, and a man of faith.
In this episode, youâll learn:
1.) Why 1 in 3 retirees return to work â and how to design a life you never want to retire from instead.
2.) The hidden risks of 401(k)s â plus the tax strategies wealthy investors are using to protect their future income.
3.) The time machine exercise that redefined Derekâs relationship with time, money, and fatherhood â and how you can create special moments in your own life.

I used to believe the key to success was working harder than everyone else.
And for a while, that served me. But over time, I started asking different questionsâlike what would it look like to build a life where work didnât come at the expense of family, faith, or freedom?
This episode is a little different, as Iâm the one being interviewed. Preston Brown, host of the Problems to Profit Podcast, pulls out the biggest lessons Iâve learned, from selling newspaper subscriptions in middle school to investing in private deals that create passive income and real-time freedom today.
We get into why I prioritize passive income over net worth, and how relationships and masterminds have opened the door to some of my biggest opportunities.
In this episode, youâll learn:
1.) How one passive income deal replaced my wifeâs incomeâand how that one move kickstarted our journey to financial freedom.
2.) My personal framework for allocating surplus income into deals that create long-term freedom.
3.) Why I created The Lifestyle Investor Mastermindâan exclusive community giving members access to the same deals and strategies used by the ultra-wealthy.

In this episode, youâll learn:
â Why financial freedom doesnât always equal happinessâand the steps you can take to avoid feeling of emptiness post-exit.
â How to avoid common post-exit mistakes of investing in VC or angel investing without proper due diligence.

Imagine that you're an entrepreneur who's already had an exit. You're working on a Master's degree at MIT's Entrepreneur Program, and then you get a call from a talent scout at Shark Tank.
Not only that, but that phone call landed you a million-dollar investment from the Sharks for your restaurant business (still one of the top five deals ever to this day) and a seven-figure exit a few years later.
That's just scratching the surface of why I'm excited to introduce you to my friend Yuen Yung. Yuen is a serial entrepreneur, investor, and the Co-Founder of HalBar Partners, a niche private equity firm specializing in a relatively unknown but powerful asset class: Search Funds.
In our conversation, you'll hear the experience Yuen has gained from having several successful exists, why he believes that alternative investments and real estate offer better ROI and security than the public markets, and why his newest venture into search fundsâan asset class averaging a 35% IRRâcould be a game-changer for investors seeking higher multiples with the steady returns of private equity.
In this episode, youâll learn:
1.) Why traditional stock market investing with 60/40 portfolios feels outdatedâand why the ultra-wealthy are investing their money in alternative investments.
2.) What Search Funds are and why this niche asset class differs from the more common private equity and venture capital investment opportunitiesâand why most people have never heard of them.
3.) How Yuen earned a $1 million dollar investment on Shark Tank, despite initially turning down the opportunity and how he turned it into a 7-figure exit.
