You can have all the money in the world and still have the wrong people around you. That gap will cost you more than any bad investment. Tim and Mark break down the 7 people every wealthy person needs on the personal side of their life: the ones protecting your time, your health, your family, and your legacy. Simple stuff that nobody really talks about until you need it.

This episode is part one of a two-parter — next week they're covering the business side.

In this episode:

- Why an executive assistant is the single most important hire

- The case for a private doctor on retainer

- Travel connections: the one relationship that matters most when you get that call and you need to be somewhere in four hours

- What a fiduciary actually does and why you need one before you think you need one (shoutout to @garrettbgunderson, @jim.dew_, and @jeffsocha — guys who have them and can point you in the right direction)

- Personal trainers and nutrition coaches — including Tim's buddy @gunnarmade, who keeps the Bratz household moving

- Spiritual guidance as a personal and marriage resource, and why Mark thinks you don't have to be in an organized religion to benefit from it

- Charitable connections: how to find the grassroots organizations actually doing the work (not the ones spending 98% of donations on marketing)

Most people are saving their best words for the funeral post. Mark and Tim want you to stop doing that.

This episode landed on Mark's 30th year as an entrepreneur, and instead of a victory lap, he turned it into a question worth sitting with: how many more real shots do you have left? Not at the million-dollar thing. At the hundred million dollar thing. At the dream trip. At the letter you keep meaning to write. At the phone call you've been putting off for three years. Tim opens up about pulling the trigger on a year of international travel with his family, and Mark gets into the daily habit of sending messages, letters, and videos that most people say they'll do someday — and never do.

The gap between rich and poor isn't just money. It's mindset, conversations, and who you're in the room with. Tim and Mark break down the real reasons wealth compounds for some people and stagnates for others. If you've ever looked around and wondered why nothing's changing, this one's for you.

In this episode:

• Why the conversations you're having are the clearest signal of where you're headed financially
• How borrowed belief works — and why proximity to the right people is the fastest shortcut
• The failure mindset shift Tim started using with his kids (and why most parents never do this)
• Why taking extreme ownership is the entry point to any real success
• The difference between buying assets and buying liabilities — and how poor mindset shows up in spending
• Why getting out of the wrong rooms matters more than any tactical business advice
• How to build your own table when you can't get invited to one

Tim and Mark take on one of the most common beliefs that quietly keeps people from pursuing wealth: the idea that getting rich means becoming someone you hate. They break down where that myth comes from, why the loudest "jerks" are usually people pretending to be rich, and what it actually looks like when genuine wealthy people show up in the room. Along the way, they get into the broke millionaire trap, the confidence-building habits that separate those who make it from those who plateau, and why the story you tell about rich people might be the thing holding you back.

Bobby Castro built a fintech company from scratch — no investors, no outside capital — and sold it three times: $250M, $600M, then $1 billion.

And when that final wire hit? Nothing. No fireworks.

In the first-ever guest episode of I'm Rich. Now What?, Bobby gets real with Tim and Mark about what actually happens after the big exit — the disappointment, the near-bankruptcy five years before the billion, the missed moments with his kids, and why he walked away at the top to build something he calls a 100-year legacy plan.

In this episode: why the exit fell flat, the "nonrefundable minutes" framework, when to sell, raising kids around money without ruining them, and why transparency is the whole game.

Bobby Castro is a fintech exit veteran ($1.85B+), real estate investor ($800M portfolio), co-founder of R360, and author of Outsider.

You worked for years to build something worth selling. But what happens after the check clears?

Mark Evans DM and Tim Bratz get into one of the most important conversations entrepreneurs aren't having — what to do with your money after a big exit. And the answer might surprise you: the mindset that made you rich could be the exact thing that loses it all.They walk through the psychology of going from wealth builder to wealth preserver, why sitting on your money for 12 months might be the smartest move you ever make, and how to build a simple framework for deploying capital without losing sleep or getting taken advantage of.This one is for anyone building toward an exit — or already planning what comes next

In this episode:
- Why the mindset that builds wealth is different from the one that keeps it
- The 12-month rule after a big exit
- The quarter/quarter/quarter/quarter diversification framework
- Buy for investment, rent for lifestyle
- Why writing fewer, bigger checks beats spreading money thin
- How to define your "opportunity buy box" post-exit
- Why purpose matters as much as capital allocation
