      #9 - Assurance of Outcome: How to Design an Investment That Always Performs
      Feb 18 2026
      Warren Buffett once said, “If you have a really wonderful business, it is very well protected against the vicissitudes of the economy over time and the competition.” I sleep well at night managing hundreds of millions in assets—not because of sleeping pills, hope that interest rates will fall, or because things are working out today. I sleep well because every investment I’ve made has one thing in common—assurance of outcome. When you have it, you know your assets will perform well, you know they’ll be profitable, and you know you’ll get your money back. But most investors are following another strategy—save, hope, and pray markets cooperate. It's fragile, stressful, and entirely dependent on timing. Today, we’re talking about the sixth step in the Sunrise C.A.P.I.T.A.L. Strategy—assurance of outcome. More specifically, how to ensure any investment you make will safely profit, grow in value, and generate durable cash flow that will support your family for generations. It’s how we’ve done hundreds of millions in full-cycle deals, with zero principal loss, and 30+ consecutive quarters of distributions. You’ll learn the four Sage Principles we’ve taken at Sunrise Capital Investors to produce safe, calculable, consistent cash flow, take our chips off the table and “play with house money,” and know, without a shred of doubt, that our assets will perform. Sage Wisdom from Today’s Episode: How we invest to make an infinite return on almost every deal we do Diversifying is killing your returns: why you must stick to one lane and learn it well “Boring” businesses that have made some of the wealthiest investors in history The one thing that preserves your wealth over generations (no matter what happens) Risk vs. uncertainty: you’re planning for entirely the wrong thing when investing — The Sage Investor - #2 - The Buffett-Inspired Approach to Building Enduring Wealth (C.A.P.I.T.A.L.

      #8 - Tax Drag: The Silent Compounding Killer Costing You Millions
      Feb 11 2026
      This is costing you millions of dollars—and you don’t even know about it. That’s not a theory or a scare tactic. I’m going to show you today how one simple thing is quite literally costing you seven figures in wealth and adding decades to your timeline for reaching financial freedom. The bright side? It’s easily avoidable, and at Sunrise Capital Investors, we’ve proven this wealth killer can be slain with the right strategy. If you make a high income and are paying hundreds of thousands in taxes, this single episode could change your life. We’re talking about the fifth step in the Sunrise C.A.P.I.T.A.L. Strategy—tax efficiency, more specifically, how you can keep millions more dollars in your pocket and have significantly higher (and more durable) returns. If you’re investing in fix and flip syndications (or performing them yourself), I’ll bet I can prove to you that it’s costing you more than it’s worth, and how the 1031 exchange trap (so often pushed by real estate investing gurus) is slowly killing your returns. I’ll even lay out the three steps Sunrise Capital Investors takes to achieve remarkably tax-efficient returns and give our investors six-figure (pushing seven-figure) “phantom” write-offs. Sage Wisdom from Today’s Episode: How to create hundreds of thousands in paper losses to (legally) avoid taxes The four “friction” costs that prove that “fix and flip” is not worth it How tax drag is costing you millions of dollars over your career The 1031 exchange “trap” that “savvy” investors are falling into Why selling a mobile home park for millions in profit was the worst decision I’ve made Three real steps you can use right now to create huge write-offs, tax-advantaged cash flow, and tax-free cash in your bank — The Sage Investor - #2 - The Buffett-Inspired Approach to Building Enduring Wealth (C.A.P.I.T.A.L. Strategy) Recommended Resources: Learn more from Brian and listen to past episodes of The Sage Investor Connect with Brian on LinkedIn Are you a high net worth investor with capital to deploy in the next 12 months?Build passive income and wealth by investing in real estate projects alongside Brian and his team!

      #7 - Invest, Don’t Speculate: Why Appreciation Cannot Be Trusted
      Feb 5 2026
      “Our favorite holding period is forever.” Most investors say they agree. Almost none invest like it. Buffett wasn’t mistaken when setting forth this guiding principle—and it has made him billions in profits as a result. For Buffett, Munger, and a long line of sage investors, buying at a low price and hoping for a high price is not investing—it’s speculation. But, in today’s economy, it seems that 99% of “investors” are only concerned about the short-term payoff of their principal, not the long-term compounding that made investors like Buffett and Munger some of the wealthiest in the world. Now ask yourself: Are you investing, or are you speculating, merely hoping that your assets increase in value? This is the fourth step in our Sunrise C.A.P.I.T.A.L. strategy—invest, don’t speculate. And there’s one factor that turns a speculative guess into an actual investment. I’ll prove it by showing you a real-world example of how we put speculation aside to generate durable, strong cash flow for our investors. You can do the same if you invest, not speculate. Wisdom of wealth from today’s episode: The single most dangerous lie that “fix and flip” operators try to peddle You can’t eat IRR: why durably wonderful cash flow is the lifeblood that outlasts all other returns The one factor that turns your risky gamble into an airtight investment A real-world example of how “buying time” made our investment a cash-flowing machine The one thing that crushes good investments—and the only way to mitigate it Appreciation cannot be trusted—if your wealth relies on it, you won’t be safe — The Sage Investor - #2 - The Buffett-Inspired Approach to Building Enduring Wealth (C.A.P.I.T.A.L. Strategy) Recommended Resources: Learn more from Brian and listen to past episodes of The Sage Investor Connect with Brian on LinkedIn Are you a high net worth investor with capital to deploy in the next 12 months?Build passive income and wealth by investing in real estate projects alongside Brian and his team!
