MARK MATSON | Is the American Dream Dead or Alive?

Many men believe the American Dream is dead. Just take a look that the upcoming Presidential election and you’ll often hear how many will, in utter surrender and defeat, say, “My vote doesn’t count anyways so why do it?” Or, take a look at how many men will through up their hands and exclaim that there’s nothing they can do about their marriage, the economy, their job, or their circumstances. And, while there is much outside of our control, there is much still within it. My guest today, Mark Matson, founder of Matson Money is here to tell us why experiencing the American dream is not out of reach for those who may previously have thought so. We talk about how to invest your time, money, and energy wisely, an academic approach to intelligent investing taking into consideration human brain science, discovering a whole new way to see the world, the forces standing between you and the American Dream (and how to overcome them), and the crucial importance of developing what he calls, “Your Future View.” SHOW HIGHLIGHTS (00:00) - Episode Intro (03:41) - Reviving the American Dream (13:32) - Discovering Purpose Beyond Wealth (18:08) - Uncovering Purpose Amid Obstacles (27:30) - Building the American Dream (31:53) - Fighting for Family and Values (40:48) - Navigating Entrepreneurship and Politics (46:35) - Protecting the American Dream (56:51) - Impacting Men and Families Through Mentorship Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!
