Tait Duryea has always loved two things: flying planes and building financial freedom. He’s built a life that combines these two elements, and he’s helping other commercial pilots achieve the same success he has in alternatives. In this episode, he tells Ben how he decides if a deal is ready for liftoff, how he thinks about risk assessment, and how he’s getting from Point A to Point B on his own financial goals.
