Title: Why High Earners Stay Broke (and How to Escape the W-2 Trap) with Rich Fettke Summary: On this episode of Raise the Bar Radio, Seth Bradley welcomes Rich Fettke, co-founder of Real Wealth, to share his incredible journey from a life-threatening cancer scare to building a real estate empire. Rich explains how his wife's pivot to real estate investing during his health crisis led to the creation of Real Wealth, which has since helped over 70,000 members acquire more than $1.2 billion in assets. Together, Seth and Rich dive deep into the mindset shift required to escape the grind, the importance of clarity and vision, and why hard assets like real estate are the key to sustainable wealth, freedom, and major tax advantages — especially for high-income professionals like attorneys and doctors. Rich also breaks down the difference between passive and active investing, explaining how Real Wealth offers vetted markets and property teams for investors who want a more hands-off experience. He shares insights from his book The Wise Investor, which is designed to inspire readers to take control of their financial futures through compelling storytelling. Wrapping up, Seth and Rich emphasize the power of passive income in creating freedom, reducing stress, and ultimately living life on your own terms without sacrificing health, family, or personal passions.
