Chris Fettes spent years operating at the highest levels of the U.S. military as a member of SEAL Team Six. Now he’s taking that same discipline, leadership, and resilience into entrepreneurship.

In this episode, I’m introducing a new segment on The American Capitalist Show called Second Act.

The idea is to take elite performers who have already succeeded at an extraordinary level in one field and break down whether those same skills can translate into business, and what other entrepreneurs can learn from them.

Chris is the perfect person to start with.

We talk about pressure, leadership, team building, discipline, and the mindset required to succeed at the highest level. Then we apply those lessons directly to the businesses he’s building today.

I also break down the financial side of his journey, including cash flow, margins, investors, ownership, taxes, scaling, and what it takes to build a company that can eventually operate without the founder.

This isn’t about war stories. It’s about what happens when an elite performer enters a completely new arena, and tries to win again.

Charles Schwab is replacing financial advisors with AI. And this should be a wake-up call for the entire financial advice industry and the people paying for advice.

If you’re a financial advisor, thinking about hiring one, or already paying someone to manage your wealth, you absolutely need to watch this episode.

AI can make traditional financial advice faster, cheaper, and more accessible. But it also exposes a much bigger problem: a lot of what people have been paying advisors for can now be automated.

Real wealth advice goes far beyond picking investments and building a portfolio.

It’s about growing your income, minimizing taxes, growing your investments, and protecting your wealth, all working together.

The question isn’t whether AI will replace financial advisors.
It’s which financial advisors are actually providing enough value that AI can’t replace them.

Not understanding the difference could literally cost you millions of dollars over your lifetime.

Watch this episode before you hire or keep paying a financial advisor.
