Rebel Traders Podcast - Stock Market Trading Strategies, Insights & Analysis with Master Traders Sean Donahoe & Phil Newton

As the aroma of your morning coffee hits, you might wince at the new price tag, and as the sugar tax sweetens the US government's pockets, your wallet feels lighter. But did you know those tiny financial habits could brew a fortune over time? In this week's steaming-hot episode of Rebel Traders Podcast, Sean and Phil spill the beans on how incremental savings and sharp diversification strategies can juice up your investment game. From the caffeinated highs of the UK's coffee market to the sugar-spiked tax landscape of the US, we're serving up a blend of sweet strategies and robust revelations. Join us as Phil percolates over tax liens and certificates, a unique concoction not found worldwide. Meanwhile, Sean, the investment barista, stirs up the real estate realm, from Bangkok's pricey plots to profitable house shops that keep the cash flowing like a well-made drip. Strap in as Sean shares the secret beans behind his investment portfolio—60% in stocks and options, 30% mainstream crypto, and a sprinkling of 10% in micro caps, revealing a world where 32,000% returns aren't just a caffeine-induced dream. Meanwhile, Phil brews up wisdom on why trading isn't all about the big wins; it's about letting the market serve you its riches. The duo grinds out the details on diversification—beyond the usual financial instruments—touching on everything from whiskey to private equity, and the post-COVID challenges of brick-and-mortar ventures. We're talking fast returns vs slow burns, dollops of personal experience, shifts in trading strategies, and the essential understanding that true wealth is the perfect blend of time and money. So pour yourself a cup and join the conversation that goes beyond the traditional 60/40 stock-bond split, into a world where strategy, risk tolerance, and paying yourself first isn't just smart—it's Rebel-smart. All this, plus our take on cancel culture and the 'woke' movement—all distilled into one must-listen episode. Because in trading, just like in coffee, it's all about the right mix.
