**Summary of Podcast Episode: "I'm Rich, Now What?"**

In this episode, the hosts discuss the concept of owning a second home, weighing its practicality and motivations. Zeus shares his experience of purchasing a second home post-divorce, emphasizing the emotional appeal rather than purely investment motives. He purchased a beach house valued at around $900,000, which has appreciated to about $2.2 million, yet he rarely uses it, preferring privacy.

The other host contrasts this with his investment strategy, operating multiple properties, including a renovated second home that he rents out on Airbnb. He notes that the vacation rental market doesn't always appreciate in value, prompting him to rethink his investment strategy.
