Today, I welcome Zachary Levitt to The Investing Secrets Podcast. Zach's path into investing started early and moved fast - soaking up the strategies of the world's great hedge fund managers in high school, launching a derivatives trading club at university that put him in the room with some of the top portfolio managers alive, running a biotech alpha-capture strategy by 21, and becoming one of the youngest hedge fund managers you'll ever hear of by 25. Today he's the CIO and Founder of Sixth Turn Capital, a capacity-constrained multi-manager fund built for high-net-worth, ultra-high-net-worth, and family office investors - a stable of uncorrelated portfolio managers, each an expert in their own narrow strategy, engineered to deliver smooth, consistent, risk-adjusted returns.

We kick off with Zach's origin story and how a college trading club turned into managing real capital before most people finished their degree. From there we get into the architecture of a multi-manager fund - how he vets and underwrites portfolio managers, why he pays each one only on their own sleeve, and why true diversification comes from uncorrelated strategies rather than simply owning more stocks. We close on where he sees the biggest opportunities heading into the second half of 2026, why now may be an opportune moment to protect against a market crash, and the growing shift toward alternatives.

Today, I welcome Ryan Brown to The Investing Secrets Podcast. Ryan's path into real estate was anything but conventional. He grew up in a trailer park, became the first in his family to attend college, and trained as a nurse anesthesiologist at Rush in Chicago before landing a faculty role at USC's Keck School of Medicine. But between long shifts in the operating room and annual surgical mission trips to rural Kenya, Ryan realized he was wired to build something bigger than himself. Today he's the Principal and Co-Founder of Turnbull Equity, a vertically integrated self-storage platform with roughly $41 million in AUM across seven states - combining ownership, capital raising, and a nationwide third-party management arm all under one roof.

We kick things off with Ryan's origin story and the single beachfront building (financed at a 1.75% fixed mortgage) that pulled him out of the operating room and into full-time real estate. From there, we get into why self-storage rewards disciplined operators over passive owners, how Ryan runs one of the leanest expense loads in the business, why he treats NOI - not IRR - as his true north, and how his management arm quietly feeds his entire acquisition pipeline. We close on his outlook for self-storage in 2026, how he identifies durable markets in a post-COVID world, and the one investing principle he believes matters more than any return metric.

Today, I welcome back longtime friend of the program, Brian Bradley, to the Investing Secrets Podcast. Brian has spent years in the trenches of asset protection and legal structuring, working with high-net-worth individuals, business owners, and real estate investors to protect what they've built - not just during their lifetime, but across generations. In an environment where lawsuits are more aggressive, misinformation is at an all-time high, and outdated strategies are still being sold as solutions, Brian cuts through the noise with real case law and real structure. We kick things off with the biggest misconceptions in asset protection right now - from the "an LLC solves everything" narrative to the dangerous advice around out-of-state entities, revocable trusts, and offshore loopholes that don't hold up in court. From there, Brian breaks down what a properly structured plan actually looks like: the layered approach using LLCs, management companies, and hybrid trust structures, and why most investors are either underprotected or protected in the wrong way without realizing it. We close on the next level of planning - how to defend your assets while you're alive and preserve and transfer wealth efficiently across generations using dynasty trust structures, while minimizing tax exposure and protecting heirs from their own liabilities. If you're serious about protecting your balance sheet, avoiding costly legal mistakes, and building a structure that holds up under pressure, this one delivers.
