Do you ever wonder how the wealthy keep on accruing wealth while paying less in taxes? The secret might be in the use of trusts. Discover the ins and outs of this strategy with our insightful guest, Sally Gimon, owner of the Trust Is You. Sally shares her personal journey, transforming a $20,000 investment while also saving $10,550 in taxes along the way. She also talks about how a trust is not only for the affluent but can be a tool for anyone to significantly save on taxes.
Get ready to be inspired, educated, and motivated as we explore the expansive world of trusts and income-saving strategies. So buckle up, and let's start this exciting journey together!
Who is Sally?
Sally was motivated to become a real estate investor when her mom became sick in October 2018. Sally was 53 and needed to make a change in her life quickly. She has been an insurance agent for 20 years and has used her experience to make positive changes. Now she shares her information weekly in her real estate group and Win, Win Women TV.
In July 2020, she bought a Bank Owned Property for $20,000 that would go to auction for $50,000 when Covid restrictions lifted. She knew her Capital Gains would be $7,140 and researched how the rich paid so little in taxes. This led her to find the Business and Spendthrift Trusts.
Currently, Capital Gains are 23.8% on any profit. There is passed legislation to raise this to 40% for some tax levels. The IRS is hiring 87,000 new agents. The Spendthrift Trust defers Capital Gains into infinity and beyond and keeps people's judgment proof, and their information private.

Get ready for a rollercoaster ride as we walk you through the incredible journey of Steve Cloward, owner of Advanced Home Pros. From renting out VHS tapes at 17 to building successful businesses, Steve's life is an inspiration. Despite grappling with Crohn's disease, a fierce battle with opiates, and a stint in prison, Steve not only came out stronger but also found a renewed sense of self. His story promises lessons on resilience, gratitude, and the power of inner wisdom. Steve's candid account of overcoming challenges, rebuilding his identity, and advice for those in a tough spot make this episode a must-listen. Join us for this enlightening conversation with Steve Cloward and grab some inspiration along the way.
Steve Cloward started Advanced Home Pros After the Real Estate crash in 2008 and 2009 when he decided it was time to look at other industries we could get involved in. With the frustration he had personally when calling his Television, internet, and other home service providers, he knew we could make a difference in this industry. He knew that finding home services and getting help with home services didn’t have to be this difficult after you had become a customer. Because he didn’t know the business, he knew how important it was to learn it by starting at the bottom and working his way up. He knew nothing about home services then, so he dived deep into learning about the industry. He knew that he wanted to make a change that made a difference in his life but also in the lives of others. He started down this path in 2010 and has helped over 10,000 customers with their TV, Internet, Home Security, and Solar services.

Today we are joined by a Sales Performance Expert, Speaker, Podcast Host, and the CEO of Helix Sales Development, Walter Crosby. He shares his riveting journey from being unexpectedly promoted to international sales director with zero experience in team management and how he successfully navigated this challenging period, growing revenue by a staggering 120% in just three years.
Walter also delves into the art of assembling an effective sales team and equipping them with the right tools for success. Learn how to craft a compelling company story that resonates with your sales team and sets your brand apart in the competitive marketplace. Tune in for a conversation jam-packed with insights for every work-at-home entrepreneur.
Walter is on a mission to help Visionary leaders build a high-performance sale organization with a consistently reliable revenue forecast to double revenue.
As CEO of Helix Sales Development, he only engages with growth-minded entrepreneurs who are frustrated with underperformance and have the desire & commitment to build a performance-based sales culture. His clients say the journey can be challenging; however, the results are transformative and produce repeatable revenue growth with margin integrity.
Walter is a proud alum of the University of Michigan and holds an advanced degree from the School of Hard-Won Wisdom. He spent the majority of his career as a salesman who was frequently promoted to sales manager. He’s sold various products with complex B2B sales cycles, including LED luminaires, commercial signage, financial services, synchronized clock systems, and commercial fire alarm systems. He’s sold to K-12 educators, colleges/ universities, contractors, manufacturing, and commercial/retail firms.
Frustrated by the lack of training each time he was promoted to sales management roles, he sought training and mentors to help him grow as a leader. This led to creating his own firm, Helix, to hire, train, and influence successful sales teams. He has formed strategic relationships to augment the sales coaching services he provides. Walter is a certified partner with the Objective Management Group, an award-winning provider of evidence-based sales evaluation and assessment tools. Helix’s technology partner is Membrain.
Walter’s rocket fuel comes from coaching committed individuals to excel beyond what they thought was possible. Using the proven Helix Sales Hiring Process, 91% of Helix-recommended sales hires rise to the top half of the sales organization within the first year.
Those that know him best often find him reflecting over a fine cigar in his private cigar lounge. In fact, he regularly speaks about his two favorite passions as host of his podcast called Sales and Cigars.

In this episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Wren McCallister, a highly accomplished orthopedic surgeon who holds double board certification and has completed a fellowship in his field. Dr. McCallister delves into the vital topic of health awareness, emphasizing how having the correct information can not only save you money but also safeguard the well-being of your hands and legs. Furthermore, he highlights the significance of investing in appropriate equipment for your home office, underscoring how this choice can significantly impact your overall health in the long term. Join us as we delve into these essential aspects of maintaining a healthy and thriving lifestyle.
Dr. Wren is a board-certified orthopedic hand surgeon who has spent the past two decades practicing in Edmonds, Washington, where he lives with his wife and three children.
After helping thousands of people overcome hand pain and numbness, he noticed a pattern emerge. Frustrated by the complex and inefficient process of getting help, not to mention the cost, people were ignoring their hand problems for far too long.
And it all boiled down to an information gap – a lack of access to expert, actionable information and education about hand problems. Dr. Wren started HandGuyMD to fill that gap.
HandGuyMD has a goal of helping 1 million people save time, money, and stress, getting relief from hand pain and numbness, and Dr. Wren looks forward to helping you next.
