Description

Most investors lose money not because the deal was bad—but because their due diligence was.


In this episode, we break down the REAL difference between amateurs and professionals when evaluating private placement programs. From shady principals to fake returns to missing audits, we uncover the red flags that take people out of the game—and the checks that keep you safe.


In this episode, we cover:
• The essential documents every investor must review before joining a program
• How to verify principals, licenses, and compliance like a professional
• The financial red flags—unrealistic returns, missing audits, vague structures
• Why custody, references, and legal review decide whether a deal is legit
