MCP112: Unlocking Financial Independence for Employees with Dr. Matt Markel

Описание: This episode got real about something most people avoid. I sat down with Dr. Matt Markel, a guy who’s gone from entry-level engineer to running multi-billion dollar businesses in tech and defense. We met at the Writer’s Block Symposium and, honestly, I was hooked by his practical take on wealth and success.




Matt’s book, “Anti-Preneur,” is small but packs a punch. He’s big on creating assets and shifting your mindset, instead of chasing overnight riches or quitting your job on a whim. 




Matt shared his story of growing up with a scarcity mindset and how getting invited into a financial mastermind changed everything for him. He laid out why just having a 401k and working hard doesn’t cut it anymore, especially since the US is facing a huge retirement savings gap.




He’s on a mission to get businesses and professionals comfortable talking about real wealth creation. Not just picking a mutual fund, but knowing how to build and protect assets. 




My favorite part? His push to help leaders actually educate employees about money instead of just throwing pizza parties. If people understand how to set themselves up financially, it lowers stress, builds loyalty, and sets up a better future for everyone involved.




Here are a few standouts:



• Changing your mindset comes first, before any financial move.
• Wealth comes from creating assets, not hustling harder at work.
• Businesses should teach real financial skills, not just offer standard benefits.
• Group learning boosts results and accountability for everyone.
