    • From Wall Street to Bitcoin Mining: Dan Thompson’s Blueprint for Generational Wealth

      From Wall Street to Bitcoin Mining: Dan Thompson’s Blueprint for Generational Wealth
      Feb 20 2026

      In this powerful episode of Million Dollar Minutes, Michael Aguas introduces the expanded vision of the show — a platform centered on:

      • Family

      • Faith

      • Finances

      • Freedom

      • Fun

      • Generational Legacy

      Today’s guest, financial industry veteran Dan Thompson, shares his journey from stockbroker to real estate investor to Bitcoin mining strategist — and how he’s building systems designed to outpace traditional wealth models.

      This episode covers:

      • Growing up poor and discovering the power of investing

      • Lessons from the dot-com crash

      • Why traditional diversification may limit growth

      • Why Bitcoin is digital gold — not spending money

      • The difference between buying Bitcoin and mining it

      • Why Dan is reallocating up to 96% of his own portfolio into Bitcoin-focused strategies

      • How life insurance and Bitcoin together create legacy planning

      At 15, Dan overheard his father’s wealthy friend say he made $30,000 in one month trading stocks.

      Dan was making $2.50 an hour landscaping.

      That moment shifted his mindset permanently.

      By 24, he became a stockbroker — only to discover:

      “Most stockbrokers are broke.”

      The 90s boom made everyone feel invincible.

      Then came the crash.

      Dan watched clients:

      • Gain wealth for years

      • Lose half overnight

      • Retire at the worst possible time

      That forced him to ask a bigger question:

      “Where do the ultra-wealthy really put their money?”

      That search led to advanced life insurance leverage strategies — and eventually Bitcoin mining.

      Dan does not treat Bitcoin as currency.

      He treats it as:

      • A store of value

      • A hedge against fiat devaluation

      • A generational wealth vehicle

      “The most expensive hamburger you’ll ever buy is the one you paid for with Bitcoin.”

      Most investors buy Bitcoin.

      Dan mines it.

      Mining cost = electricity.

      Example:

      • $30,000 electric cost

      • Produces 1 Bitcoin worth $115,000

      That cost basis difference is the opportunity.

      Michael calls it what it is:

      “That’s arbitrage.”

      Traditional model:

      • Diversify

      • 60/40

      • Reduce risk

      Dan challenges that thinking.

      His view:

      • Diversifying into lower returns slows wealth

      • Bitcoin exposure is no longer optional

      • Allocation should increase with conviction

      He personally is moving toward:

      96% Bitcoin-focused strategy

      But advises others to start at 10–20% and grow intelligently.

      Key topics covered:

      • Wallet security

      • Key management

      • Cold storage

      • Titanium backup plates

      • Passing assets directly to heirs

      No probate.
      No bank delays.
      No forced liquidation.

      When paired with life insurance:

      • Death benefit covers estate costs

      • Bitcoin remains intact

      • Generational compounding continues

      Next episode dives into:

      • The “secret sauce”

      • How electric bills get paid without selling Bitcoin

      • Daily Bitcoin distributions

      • Monthly yield strategies

      • The 3–5 year 100x thesis

    • Inside the Big Game: Mark Schlereth’s Super Bowl Breakdown, Matchups & Game-Day Essentials

      Inside the Big Game: Mark Schlereth’s Super Bowl Breakdown, Matchups & Game-Day Essentials
      Feb 7 2026

      In this Special Super Bowl Edition of Million Dollar Minutes, Michael Aguas is joined by three-time Super Bowl Champion Mark Schlereth for the ultimate big-game conversation—covering everything from game-day preparation and elite matchups to roster depth, quarterback play, and special teams, the areas that often decide championships.

      Blending insider football IQ with the full Super Bowl experience—food, family, friends, and fun—this episode delivers both entertainment and expert analysis as fans get ready for the biggest game of the year.

      Before diving into football, Mark sets the tone for a complete Super Bowl Sunday:

      • TV Experience:

        • LG OLED evo TVs

        • Perfect blacks, vivid colors, ultra-smooth action, immersive sound

        • Sizes from 55” to 97”

      • Food:

        • Perdue Air Fryer Ready Crispy Wings

        • Restaurant-quality wings in 18 minutes or less

        • No antibiotics, big flavor, game-day easy

      • Drinks:

        • Bota Box Premium Wines

        • Easy pour, no corkscrew

        • Bright Side white blend pairs perfectly with salty snacks

      For Schlereth, Super Bowl Sunday is about comfort, convenience, and quality—the same principles that apply on the field.

      Mark makes his pick:

      • Winner: Seattle Seahawks

      • Why:

        • Best overall football over the final six weeks

        • Strong offense and defense

        • Elite special teams, a key indicator of roster depth

      “When special teams cover, return, and play aggressively, it usually tells you who has the deeper team.”

      • Seattle’s front seven vs. New England’s rookie left side

      • Patriots surrendered heavy pressure earlier in the playoffs

      • Pressure leads to sacks, turnovers, and momentum swings

      • Drake May’s deep ball has been exceptional

      • Seahawks’ secondary presents a major challenge

      • QB mobility becomes a difference-maker if Seattle plays heavy man coverage

      One of Mark’s favorite narratives:

      • Former top-three pick labeled a bust

      • Stops in New York, Carolina, Minnesota, and San Francisco

      • Finds stability and success in Seattle

      • Outduels top quarterbacks during the playoff run

      “If you pitched this story to Hollywood, they’d say it’s unrealistic.”

      • Jaxon Smith-Njigba (JSN)

        • Not the fastest 40-yard dash, but elite route separation

        • Instant acceleration, sharp cuts, and yards after catch

        • Strong chemistry with Sam Darnold

      Mark emphasizes that football speed and separation matter more than combine numbers.

      Michael presses Schlereth on how the Patriots could adjust:

      • Commitment to the run game

      • QB mobility on third downs

      • Exploiting man-to-man coverage

      • Using designed QB runs to punish pressure looks

      The chess match between pressure and discipline could define the outcome.

      Mark weighs in on the Denver Broncos:

      • Optimistic about the future

      • Praises Bo Nix’s development

      • Acknowledges how hard it is to reach championship games

      • Notes the AFC is loaded with young quarterback talent

      “You never take these moments for granted. Getting here is hard.”

      One thing is clear from the conversation:

      • The NFL is stacked with young quarterbacks

      • Preparation, depth, and execution still win championships

      • Special teams and situational football remain decisive

      This Super Bowl Edition of Million Dollar Minutes delivers:

      • Championship-level football insight

      • Real analysis from a three-time Super Bowl winner

      • Practical game-day advice for fans

      • A reminder that success—on the field or in life—comes down to preparation, depth, and execution
