In this episode of The Passive Pathway, we take a clear and practical look at crypto wallets, with a special focus on the increasingly popular Tangem Wallet. We break down what a crypto wallet really is, how Tangem works, the unique three-card system, and the difference between public and private keys—without the technical headache.

We also explore centralized wallets, DeFi wallets, and why hardware wallets matter more than ever in an age of AI-powered hacking, phishing, and digital fraud. With a balanced look at Tangem’s pros and cons, plus a touch of humor and old-school financial wisdom, this episode is a must-listen for anyone serious about crypto security and long-term ownership.

In Episode 24 of The Passive Pathway, we welcome John Knowlton—entrepreneur, pastor, teacher, and architect of multi-generational governance models that keep families united and purposeful. After co-founding and scaling a $1B wealth-management firm, John shifted his focus to helping families build governance structures rooted in mission, values, communication, and shared stewardship.

This conversation explores why inheritance without intentional guidance often leads to confusion—and how families can instead pass down clarity, purpose, and traditions that strengthen bonds across generations. John also shares insights from his upcoming book, Thinking for Success, which uses 52 story-driven mental models to improve thinking, productivity, and relationships.

If you want your wealth—and your wisdom—to last beyond your lifetime, this episode is a powerful, practical guide.

Today I sit down with real estate entrepreneur and endurance athlete Mike Deaton, co-founder of Flipping Dirt. After years in big-tech operations, Mike and his wife, Ligia, left the corporate world and discovered a surprisingly powerful asset class: vacant land. Since 2016, they’ve flipped hundreds of parcels and helped countless others build real income, time freedom, and a calmer life.

We explore how one layoff sparked their journey, why land may be real estate’s best-kept secret, how to measure ROI in both money and reclaimed hours, and the simple steps busy professionals can take to get started. Mike also shares the mindset crossover between endurance racing and entrepreneurship—along with the myths, mistakes, and truths of the land game.

If you’re tired of tenants and stress or just want a cleaner path to passive income, this episode gives you clear insight and real steps to begin your own land-flipping journey.

They say, “Never sell your Bitcoin.” Wise words—but the power company still won’t take Satoshis. So how do you keep your crypto working while paying for life? Welcome to HODL and Borrow—the art of leveraging digital gold without letting it go.

In this episode of The Passive Pathway, Nelson—aka Nelly—dives into crypto-backed loans and decentralized lending. Discover how investors use crypto as collateral to access stablecoins, pay bills, or fund ventures—all without selling a coin.

From decoding loan-to-value ratios (without dozing off) to spotting when borrowing makes sense, Nelly breaks it down with humor and insight. We’ll look at platforms that built the movement—from SALT Lending and BlockFi to DeFi leaders like Aave and Maker.

It’s not about debt—it’s about smart liquidity. This approach preserves long-term gains while offering short-term flexibility. Think of it as refinancing your future—except the house is digital and the foundation is blockchain.

Buckle up and grab your metaphorical ledger—this episode proves you can keep your crypto, use it, and still sleep soundly knowing you didn’t panic-sell your bag for coffee money.
