  • If You Don't Choose Your Life... It Gets Chosen For You
    Jun 26 2026

    Season 3 Episode 24 | If You Don't Choose Your Life... It Gets Chosen For You

    Most people don't intentionally choose a life they're unhappy with.

    They simply stop making intentional decisions.

    One day turns into one year. One year turns into ten. Before they know it, they're living a life that feels "fine"… but not one they ever consciously designed.

    In this solo episode of Pursuit of Progress, Adam explores the difference between drifting through life and intentionally creating the future you actually want. Whether it's your career, relationships, finances, health, or even where you choose to live, every decision—or every decision you avoid—moves you in one direction or another.

    The good news?

    You don't have to keep drifting.

    You can start taking control today.

    If you've ever felt stuck, unfulfilled, or like you're simply going through the motions, this episode will challenge you to pause, reflect, and begin making decisions that align with the life you truly want to build.

    If you're thinking about buying, selling, investing, or relocating to the Denver area, I'd love to help you create a plan that supports your long-term goals.

  • 7 Tax Advantages Most Americans Never Take Full Advantage Of
    Jun 12 2026

    Most people think the tax code exists simply to collect more money.

    But when you study it closely, you'll notice something interesting:

    The system often rewards ownership, investing, retirement planning, homeownership, and long-term thinking.

    In this episode of The Pursuit of Progress, Adam Lang and Ben Adams break down seven ways the IRS allows people to legally keep more of their hard-earned money.

    We discuss:

    • Home sale tax exclusions
    • Roth IRA distributions
    • Long-term capital gains
    • Step-up in basis rules
    • Life insurance proceeds
    • Municipal bonds
    • VA disability benefits

    These aren't loopholes.

    They're existing rules that many people never fully understand or take advantage of.

    Because building wealth isn't just about making more money.

    It's also about keeping more of what you earn.

    This episode is intended for educational purposes only and should not be considered tax, legal, or financial advice.
