    Die With Zero Bill Perkins on Living Fully and Maximizing Life’s Experiences
    2026/04/12
    On this episode of The Wealth Happiness Plan, host B.D. Dalton sits down with the multi-faceted Bill Perkins—hedge fund manager, former film producer, high-stakes poker player, and the mind behind the transformative philosophy "Die With Zero."

    Together, they unpack what it truly means to live a life rich in fulfillment rather than just dollars and cents. Bill Perkins shares the inspiration behind his bestselling book, diving into how we often exchange our most precious resource—our time—for money, only to lose sight of what the money is actually for.

    Bill introduces ideas like “memory dividends,” the ongoing joy we receive from our experiences, and the concept of “time buckets” for intentional living through every season of life. The conversation explores why most people’s plans for the future are stuck on autopilot, how we can help friends join us in memorable adventures, and why legacy isn’t just about inheritance—it’s about timing and impact.

    Packed with fresh perspectives, practical wisdom, and a lively back-and-forth, this episode will inspire you to reconsider how you allocate your wealth, your energy, and, most importantly, your time. It’s all about making sure that when the ride is over, you truly left it all on the field.

    Decision-Making in Uncertain Times with Dr Alan Barnard What if uncertainty wasn't the enemy of good decisions but actually the raw material for better ones? B.D. sits down with returning guest Dr Alan Barnard, decision-making scientist and author of From Fragile to Robust to Antifragile, for a no-nonsense conversation about how business owners and retirees can stop fearing change and start using it as fuel. In this episode you'll learn:
    • Why resisting change is often the rational choice (and when it stops being one)
    • The difference between fragile, robust, and antifragile thinking, and which one you're running right now
    • How to treat every major life decision as a low-cost experiment rather than an irreversible bet
    • The ProConCloud framework: a smarter alternative to gut instinct for big transitions
    • Why "retiring" is the wrong goal entirely, and what to do instead
    Dr Barnard draws on real-world case studies from failing businesses and personal breakdowns that became breakthroughs, giving you a practical lens for navigating exits, second acts, and everything in between. One question worth sitting with after this episode: If the worst-case scenario landed tomorrow, would you survive it? Would you grow from it? Hit play. Your next chapter starts here.
