Why Farmers Can Be Worth Millions and Still Be Cash Poor
Harvest Your Wealth: A Farmer's Guide to Building Wealth Masterclass Registration: https://hub.controlandcompound.com/harvest-your-wealth-masterclass-registration A farm can be worth millions while its owner struggles with cash flow. So what does it actually take to turn a valuable operation into a business that gives you financial freedom and time to enjoy it? In this month's Entrepreneur Spotlight, Darren Mitchell sits down with Evan Shout, CEO of Maverick Ag, co-founder of Farmer Coach, and CFO of Hebert Grain Ventures. From growing up on a Saskatchewan family farm to becoming an accountant, returning to farming, and building consulting and coaching businesses, Evan brings a unique perspective on what it means to be a business owner. Darren and Evan explore why farmers can be asset rich but cash poor, the difference between owning a business and owning a job, and why growing your company doesn't automatically give you more freedom. Evan also shares the challenges of building a team, learning to delegate the work you love, and making room for the strategic decisions that daily operations often push aside. They also discuss how family priorities changed Evan's definition of success, why the next generation of farmers wants more time, and the financial number he believes every business owner should understand.

Canada Lost 68,000 Jobs Then the Bank of Canada Raised Rates. What Happens Next?
Harvest Your Wealth: A Farmer's Guide to Building Wealth Masterclass Registration: https://hub.controlandcompound.com/harvest-your-wealth-masterclass-registration Canada lost 68,000 jobs in September—and the Bank of Canada just raised interest rates. Why are borrowing costs rising while the job market weakens, and what does it mean for your money? In the November economic update, Darren and Christina break down Canadian inflation, the Canadian dollar, mortgage rates, housing affordability, and the gap between economic headlines and household finances. They explain why falling home prices don't automatically mean lower mortgage payments, how exchange rates affect everyday costs and U.S. investments, and why access to cash matters in an uncertain economy. Plus, a discussion of accessing $100,000 through cash, investments, or borrowing against high cash value life insurance—and five financial priorities heading into 2027.

The Biggest Mistake People Make With Infinite Banking

Now what? How soon can you borrow against it? How much can you access? And just because you can borrow, does that mean you should? In this episode of Control & Compound, Darren Mitchell and Christina Wyatt break down what actually happens after you set up an Infinite Banking policy. They explain how policy loans work, why borrowing against your cash value is different from withdrawing it, and how to decide when putting that capital to work makes financial sense. You'll learn: When you can start borrowing against your policy Why policy design can make a massive difference in available cash value How much of your cash value you can typically access Why your cash value can continue growing while you have a loan The biggest mistakes to avoid when borrowing How business owners, farmers, and real estate investors can strategically use policy loans Why repayment planning and maintaining liquidity matter Darren and Christina also challenge some common Infinite Banking misconceptions, including the idea that you're literally paying yourself interest. The goal isn't to borrow as much money as possible. It's to build capital, maintain control, and know when to put that money to work.

What a Wealthy Farmer Understood That His Financial Advisor Didn't

Then the 2008 financial crisis made him question everything. In this episode of Control and Compound, Darren and Christina explore the story behind Darren's book, Harvest Your Wealth, and the conversation with farmer Bob that changed how he thinks about building wealth. While markets fell and clients worried about their life savings, Darren watched people with access to capital buy assets at prices others could only wish they could afford. The difference wasn't simply their net worth. It was having money they could actually access. Darren and Christina discuss why farmers can own millions in land and equipment yet still need a bank's approval to move forward, why liquidity deserves a place alongside investment returns, and the distinction between where you build wealth and where you store capital. They also explain how they approach the Infinite Banking Concept using properly structured cash value life insurance, and why Darren believes these lessons extend far beyond farming. In this episode: • The wealthy farmer Darren initially misunderstood • What the 2008 crash revealed about access to money • Being asset rich and cash poor • Three areas Darren prioritizes for building wealth • Where capital sits before the next investment • The educational resources included with Harvest Your Wealth BOOK A CALL WITH US NOW: https://www.controlandcompound.com/contact-us Show notes: 00:00 - The 2008 Crash That Changed Darren's Perspective 03:17 - Worth Millions, but Still Asking the Bank 04:59 - The Wealthy Farmer Darren Misunderstood 12:18 - Three Lessons About Controlling Your Money 15:58 - Where Darren Says Serious Wealth Is Built 21:21- Where Do You Store Money Before Investing?

Canada's Economy Grew. Why Don't Canadians Feel Richer? | Higher Rates, Weaker Dollar
Buy Harvest Your Wealth today: https://www.amazon.ca/Harvest-Your-Wealth-Infinite-Canadian/dp/B0HFXG34F1?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB Canada's economy grew. But did your family actually get ahead? In our October economic update, Darren and Christina dig into why stronger GDP numbers don't always translate into Canadians feeling richer and why the size of your slice matters more than the size of the economy. We also discuss the possibility of Bank of Canada rate hikes, inflation, the weaker Canadian dollar and why fixed mortgage rates can rise even when the policy rate hasn't changed. Plus, we break down what's happening beneath the stock market headlines, the differences across Canada's housing markets, Bitcoin's latest moves, AI agents and stablecoins, and Canadian life insurance industry news. If you're a business owner, real estate investor or simply wondering why your money doesn't seem to go as far, join us for the episode!
