Discover the stories that honor but also reveal the brokenness of EMS, and learn about the urgent need for improving responder recruitment, retention and mental health support.
Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) has abandoned his campaign for president and endorsed his rival, Donald Trump. Nikki Haley had a decent showing in the New Hampshire Primary and now moves on to her home state of South Carolina where it's either do-or-die for her campaign. Is Trump's coronation in the Republican Party inevitable at this point? What does Joe Biden's win in New Hampshire signify and how will these campaigns coalesce over the next 10 months? These are the issues that I will discuss with my guest, Matt Dixon.
New Year's Resolutions? Ugh! Sure, we're all 10 lbs. lighter, the tobacco market is struggling and our finances are all in order . . . right?

Investor, Author, & Coach discussing Financial Mental Toughness
Ron is the author of “The Moses of Wall Street” and Founder of the Triple Tank System, the only investing system created from a biblical truth.
Known to his friends and clients simply as Tank. He also teaches new and experienced investors on how to eliminate risk and maximize returns in the stock market to become “Bulletproof Investors!”
As a Sunday school teacher and expert investor, Ron offers an extremely unique combination of field-proven strategy, real-life tested biblical advice, and a proven system that investors need to be successful in today’s financial markets.
Ron first gained national attention and recognition when he was profiled with his brother in Investors Business Daily after submitting his astounding 3,460 percent gain, turning $40,000 into over $2.2 million in eighteen months.
Here’s the timeline of Ron’s personal journey on the path to becoming a “Bulletproof Investor”, writing his book and developing The Triple Tank System.
Ron began investing at 24, in his spare time with about $3,000, which he turned into about $15,000 over the next three years. A few years later, in 1995, at the age of 29, he left his computer programming job to become a full-time individual investor.
In 1999, at the age of 33 he turned the $40,000 into $1.4 million dollars in profit in the stock market, a 3,460% gain. During that same time, the NASDAQ Composite gained a total of about 57%. Here’s an article in the Smart Investor section of Investor’s Business Daily…
The IBD paper is a great tool that Ron has been using for over 20 years. Investors.com is a web site that he likes too. He doesn’t get paid to promote either one, but recommends both as great tools.
More recently, in 2014, using the system he turned $58,650 into $720,366.35, for a $661,508.63 profit in just 17 days …a 1,124% net gain. Ron knows this “sounds too good to be true”… but here are the transactions straight from his brokerage account.
In June, 2016, within a week or so of the Brexit news, he used the system again and generated gains of over 100% in just a few months. And here’s a short video reviewing Ron’s Brexit stock trades.
Obviously, it goes without saying, having that level of financial success has been great, but what really matters most, is the life it allows Ron to live, which is a life of freedom.
In his own words…
“There are some big moments that I’m incredibly grateful for, like having the freedom to buy 400 acres of undeveloped land that my family and I immerse ourselves in every chance we get, or building a 5-acre lake there to enjoy fishing with my kids.
It also allows me to enjoy even more important areas of life, like attending my kid’s school and sporting events, and time to prepare for and teach Sunday school each week, and the ability to provide monetary support to causes my family and I believe in, like Compassion International, Wounded Warriors and the AWANAS program for kids.
Many of us open our Bibles on Sunday morning expecting a spiritual gain, but to some, if those same pages were to also lead us to a financial gain, it would somehow be immoral, almost illegal.
I believe, when it comes to investing and our financial house, the Bible is the single most important book we can trust and use.
This is my family – my two children, Wyatt and Ava, and my wife Sheryl. My kids are the reason I wrote the book and my wife’s support was key to finishing it and being here today.”
