J Darrin Gross:

I'd like to ask you, Joe Moffett, what is the biggest risk?

 

Joseph Moffett 

Well, I'm going to answer it from the perspective of a mindset. And because I think it applies in insurance, real estate, the economy, politics, whatever it might be. And the biggest risk I see as individuals not being flexible. And what I mean by that is having the flexibility to see things in different ways than they would traditionally look at it from, it takes courage to look at both sides, or all sides of a story, a situation and investment, a product to really have your due diligence on what's the best way to go. So people that I find that say, it's one way, it's this way, let's go it's my way, or the highway type people like they are in so much danger, they are at such higher risk of failure, and even under the illusion that they're going to be successful because of it. And they may be but at what expense, but they are at a higher risk. And someone who is more flexible, they're open to seeing both sides, or all sides are open this, you know, change direction or going down a path. I know. For me, I remember I had a term policy, and I realized, you know what whole life was a great insurance policy, that product for me, and then I actually unknowingly because I didn't know all the details, I actually went through my whole life policy, when I didn't know that the product was designed to be able to take out a loan against my principal that was compounding annual. So anyway, you live and you learn. But I wasn't I wasn't flexible enough to see all sides and understand it. So I would say the biggest word I can say is are you flexible? And if you're not, how can you be even more flexible? Because in today's times, you know, the strategy in real estate last year in the last two years, that strategy isn't working now. And if you think it's good enough, you're not flexible and adapting with the market, you're not going to have the success you're looking for. In fact, you could actually harm yourself and or cause yourself to go in the opposite direction. So flexibility is my answer.
