Building Intentional Wealth

Building Intentional Wealth

Author: Wyatt O'Rourke & Jordan Guess December 10, 2025 Duration: 1:07:12

In this third episode of BfFS, we sit down with Jim Crider to explore what it means to build intentional wealth in the Bitcoin era.

When does Bitcoin belong in an allocation, and when is holding dollars the responsible choice? How do advisors translate estate, tax, and behavioral planning into a world where money itself is being rethought?
Jim traces his path from early adoption to founding Intentional Living FP and explains how he guides clients from skepticism to conviction.

Listen and consider - what would you do differently if your money reliably held value over decades?
