Most people think they know what to do with their money. Spend less than you make. Save for retirement. Pay off debt. But if those strategies really worked, why are so many hardworking people still broke, stressed, and stuck? In this episode of The Tactical Empire Podcast, Jeff Smith and Shawn Rider break down the truth about financial freedom. They reveal why average advice leads to average results, why being debt free is not the same as being financially free, and how to shift your mindset to create real wealth for yourself and your family. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but still can’t seem to get ahead, this conversation will challenge everything you thought you knew about money.
