When Austin James Haines, host of The AIR Show (Authenticity – Inspiration – Relationships), first spoke with Bill Walters, he wasn’t sure the event was the right fit. But within minutes, he realized that Bill’s story — rooted in faith, family, and financial freedom — was exactly what the audience needed to hear.
Referred by mutual friend and Connected Leaders Academy founder Jose Escobar, Bill took the stage not just as a trusted financial advisor, but as a man of deep conviction and compassion — someone who meets people where they are, without judgment, and helps them move toward abundance.
A Message That Moved the Room
Bill opened his talk with a simple but powerful visual — a single dollar bill, torn piece by piece to illustrate what happens to a lifetime of savings after taxes, healthcare costs, and family expenses.
“It’s my job,” Bill said, “to put that dollar back together — to restore what’s been lost and help families create a complete, secure, and abundant future.”
What sets Bill apart isn’t just his financial expertise — it’s his heart. As he told Austin, “I meet you from where you are and give you step-by-step instructions to get where you want to be. It’s your goals, your dreams, your desires — and we build the roadmap together.”
From Life Experience to Life Mission
Bill’s mission was shaped by real experiences — caring for his mother during her final six years, navigating divorce with grace, and learning the hard truths about how most Americans save (and lose) for retirement.
He believes in creating self-funded, tax-free pensions that remove stock market risk, protect family assets, and allow people to retire with dignity.
“You were put here to live in abundance, not poverty,” Bill shared. “Through faith and smart planning, anything is possible.”
