Hear How Other Practitioners Created Freedom in Their Personal and Professional Lives
We have our asset base. Not only is it not shrinking, it's actually still growing. We're Free for Life, we have all the money that we need. We live on less than the cash flow that's being generated by those investments and living our best life.
Meet Dr. Dennis and Monzell Perry
I was an oral and maxillofacial surgeon by trade. My practice was hospital-based, which is pretty rare in the oral surgery world. I worked in the hospital, so there's constantly something to do between hospital patients and the ER. I was on call 24-7 and at work six days a week. It was grueling and it wasn't getting any easier with age. I started to feel burnt out. I didn't want to keep doing this for the rest of my life, but I didn't know how else to make money.
I heard Dr. David Phelps speak a number of times on some live calls, webinars, and Monzell and I talked about joining but were hesitant. We had a really bad experience elsewhere. We invested a tremendous amount of money, and virtually lost all of it. We attended the Freedom Founders Virtual event in 2020 and agreed if we don't like it, we'll just turn the computer off and walk away. It's no big deal. But by the end of the first day, it was a done deal. We knew this is where we needed to be.
Now we have our asset base. Not only is it not shrink King, it's actually still growing. We are Free for Life™! we have all the money that we need. We live on less than the cash flow that's being generated by those investments and living our best life. The pivot has been 100% traditional to largely alternative investments.
It's like a weight lifted off your shoulder when you have your path laid out in front of you and you know everything's going to be okay.
Meet Drs. Scott and Kelli Fischer
Our family culture is very tight-knit. We've worked together as co-dentists in the same practice for 32 years, and we sat next to each other in dental school, so that was another four years. We're as tight as can be.
We were amassing some money, but as Warren Buffett said, “If you're not making money while you're sleeping, you're in trouble.” And when you think about trying to leave dentistry, get out of the practice, do the math, no matter how much you got, it's not going to last very long. It's changed our mindset completely to figure out what passive income was, and how to do it.
We have one son, Jake, who is 23. He has made an investment already with one of the Trusted Advisors. He's getting that mindset, and that is very rewarding to see him taking charge. I would give anything at 23 years old to be able to have that knowledge.
It's like a weight lifted off your shoulders when you have your path laid out in front of you, and you know everything's going to be okay. That's what freedom means to me.
Enjoy time now. Enjoy happiness now. True wealth is having that choice to do what you wanna do on your own terms, and Freedom Founders has given us that clarity at an earlier stage in life.
Meet Dr. Jeffrey and Celia Chen
My grandfather was a dentist. My father was a dentist. It's probably in the genes. Naturally, I wanted to be a dentist. If I could just stick with root canals all day, I'd be very happy. But being a small business owner, you're wearing a lot of hats. So over time, it can kind of wear on you. And three and a half years ago, that's when I felt that I was just living the conventional wisdom of trading your working hours for some future date of happiness.
I just wanted something different.
I happened to be on David's podcast and what he spoke about, it strongly impacted me. Of course, like all spouses, I think Celia was skeptical at first, but once we met the community and seeing such a collective group of people with a common belief, the same goals, it really made our decision to join easy.
Family is really important to us. As the kids get older, they're on their path and their journey, and it's a little harder to always get together. We travel a lot to Asia to be with our parents.
I want to spend more time with my parents, and take care of them even though they're so far away.
Since being in Freedom Founders, I've taken more time off work. I did try to attend all the kids' activities [before], but I wasn't mentally present. I was physically there. But in the back of my mind, I was always worrying about, “How can I make this practice run better? How can I grow this practice more?”
If I were to tell my younger self, I think it's important to have a very, very good work life balance. Enjoy time now. Enjoy happiness now. True wealth is having that choice to do what you wanna do on your own terms, and Freedom Founders has given us that clarity at an earlier stage in life. And I think that's one of the legacies that we want to leave behind.
Freedom is to truly be present with each other without distraction.
Dr. Peter Yonan and Erin Reilly
We met each other at a TEDx event at the community college. But we got to know each other much better after that, both sitting on the board of directors for the Boys and Girls Club. It was a long time ago. We'll call it a long courtship.
We have the best years now. Less work, more play, more travel, more time for family, more time for relationship, more time for community, more time for learning than we've ever had before.
We have a lot of things in common. We both have Hawaii roots and it's an important part of our life, as a couple, as a family, and individually, we still have family there that we visit often. Whether it's jumping off a cliff, going surfing, fishing, or the food, all of it. Those pieces there are important to all four of us.
It was a slow courtship for a reason, as maybe many dentists know, when you end up dedicating too much time to your profession and not spending time with family. Now wanting to take that opportunity to spend more time with my kids and with Erin. I think that was one of the main attractors to me of Freedom Founders.
We learned more about what Freedom Founders was, who was involved, and what their experiences were. One of the favorite parts of those meetings have been the one on one conversations, hearing what people have done, what's worked for them, what hasn't.
Previously, when I owned the practice, it was much more difficult to take time off. One of the things is now being able to plan ahead and reserve that important time for ourselves and for our family. You know, I think that's kind of been one of the more empowering things. Freedom is to truly be present with each other without distraction or guilt.
Long term, the next, is on a little island in the Pacific. We don't know which rock it will be yet, but Hawaii to spend more time there again. We both love it and miss it, but we've still got some years ahead of us of school for the kids. I look forward to doing more dentistry for less fortunate and getting to share the knowledge that I have with others. There's so much there. I think that there's something there we haven't totally realized yet.

You’re Invited to the Freedom Founders Mastermind — An Elite Community of Dentists Committed to Achieving Freedom in Life and Business.
Explaining our Mastermind to folks who haven’t been is like trying to describe a sunset to someone who has never seen the sun.
A few of our guests summed it up best:
- “It’s a collaboration of the best, brightest minds in the country.”
- “There is a real sense of family here.”
- “A mind-blowing experience.”
- “It’s like drinking from the firehose.”

- Community with like-minded human beings
- Great food. Good laughs. And fun.
In addition to tons of training and education on investment strategy, practice management, and real estate
tactics…
You’ll have direct access to David's team of Trusted Advisors — People who have been mastering alternative real estate investing for the last 40 years.

The #1 Trait of Our Most Successful Mastermind Members: They Took Action. Are You Ready to Join Them?
Most Dentists Don’t Have a "Plan B"...Do You?
The Cruelest Fate is to Possess Wealth Without Freedom.
It’s a fate that can be costly…
As my friend Dr. Mike Abernathy says: “Being a solo practitioner dentist past age 50 is a 99% fatal condition.”
- The industry is changing (corporate dentistry, managed insurance, etc)
- Your retirement “runway” is shortening
- Your health is in the balance (decades of leaning over the chair takes its toll)
If you’re a solo practitioner still active in your practice nearing (or past) the age of 50, with little clarity about your plan for retirement… The time to act is NOW.
The good news is, it’s not too late.
When you visit our Mastermind, you meet dentists who got on track (in the second half of their careers) and found Freedom… in less than 3-5 years.
You can too.
Once you join, financial Freedom is often only 3-5 years away (or less).
Take Your First Step Toward Freedom. You’re Closer Than You Think.
