Dr. Travis Parry of Make Time Institute visits Becker Private Equity & Business Podcast. He's the author of Achieving Balance. He was a financial advisor when his father died at age 49. Helping his mother with financial planning after that loss changed Parry's goals. He now teaches business owners to make time for personal priorities. It starts with scheduling them on the calendar. That includes workouts, dates, and vacations.

Becker recommends balance too. He suggests not worrying about market fluctuations that have no personal impact. He says there's less upside to storing wealth in treasuries than stocks. But there's also less risk. Becker advises listeners to embrace their chosen allocation of assets. Then, he says to reallocate over time if needed.

Becker makes periodic announcements of the largest companies by revenue and market cap. His podcast monitors bitcoin, oil, and cannabis prices. He reveals why retail stores like American Eagle suffer when Lululemon thrives.

Becker Private Equity & Business Podcast analyzes humility versus arrogance in business leaders. Becker explains how arrogance reduced earnings and stock prices for Restoration Hardware (RH). He contrasts RH's CEO with the humble CEO of Executive Podcast Solutions.

Becker exemplifies humility. With countless duties, he makes time to educate the public. He doesn't pretend to know everything and seeks listeners' input. Becker sends a $100 Amazon gift card to the first listener who texts him after each episode. He also explains investments to callers. However, listeners should consult their own financial advisor before making investments. New Becker Private Equity & Business Podcast episodes come out daily.
