Build a Wealth Team

Field partners, and everyone else on your team, for that matter, will help you mitigate risk -- another team benefit. Their collective knowledge and experience will become invaluable in setting your goals and making decisions. They help you understand the "numbers" in any deal and diversify your Wealth Cycle investing across different asset classes.

Whether on Wall Street or in Wealth Cycle Investing, there is always some degree of risk. Everyone's financial situation is different. If you have a team, you will reach a far better understanding of risk, and make informed decisions based on your own tolerance for risk. Your team will help you sleep better at night.

Wealth-building is a team sport. But someone has to be captain, and that's you. You are the most important person on the team. You have to lead your team. All the players should be excited by your vision and energized by your pursuit. You are responsible for finding every partner on your team.

You will lead, listen and learn -- all at the same time. But you will never abdicate your leadership or responsibilities, no matter how smart or expert your team is. You are the leader; you drive your wealth; you are responsible and accountable for everything.
