Bill Perkins is the CEO of BrisaMax Holdings, a consulting services firm based in the US Virgin Islands. Called “The Last Cowboy” in a recent Wall Street Journal profile, after studying electrical engineering at the University of Iowa and training on Wall Street, Perkins moved to Houston to make a fortune as an energy trader. In this episode, Bill will share the plan for optimizing your life, stage by stage, so you’re fully engaged and enjoying what you’ve worked and saved for. You’ll discover how to maximize your lifetime memorable moments with “experience bucketing,” how to convert your earnings into priceless memories by following your “net worth curve,” and find out how to navigate whether to invest in, or delay, a meaningful adventure based on your “spend curve” and “personal interest rate.” Where we are: Johnny FD – Sri Lanka / IG @johnnyfdk Sam Marks – Colorado / IG @imsammarks Bill Perkins - Capri, Italy / IG @billperkins Sponsor: Support the Show: Join our Patreon Discussed: "Die With Zero" Official Site: Diewithzerobook.com Buy "Die With Zero on Amazon: Amazon.com/Die-Zero-Getting-Your-Money Facebook: Facebook.com/Die-With-Zero Twitter: Twitter.com/bp22 Like these investments?
