Matthew, welcome to show how you are doing?
Matthew:
Doing very well, Brett Thank you for having me on.
Brett:
Absolutely. For our listeners getting to know you for the first time because you give us a little bit more about your focus, a little bit more about your story.
Matthew:
Say in reverse order. I'm an entrepreneur, I think one is not sure if you're born an entrepreneur or if it's circumstances that make it but I've been really building and running my own businesses for almost 30 years now. I moved to the US, about eight years ago landed in Southern California moved to just north of Salt Lake City a couple of years ago. One of the first things I did when I moved here was to set up a crowdfunding company that focused on real estate, really just hot on the tails of the Jobs Act, which was the first time that you could raise capital, on online platforms, to people that you didn't have a previous relationship with, and really, and quantum theory today is a company that we set up four years ago. As you were saying, what we focus on is really helping homeowners access the equity that is in their home, without having to take on more debt. We have a financial tool that is equity-based, today enabling homeowners to unlock up to half a million dollars of the equity in their homes, without having to borrow money without having to take out another mortgage. What that means is there's no debt, there are no monthly payments, and they can use the capital for any purpose.
Brett:
I'm so excited to jump into this, this is so so timely in so many ways. But before we get into that, Matthew, I want to I want, I want myself and for myself, and also for our listeners to get to know you a little bit more. See, I believe we've all been given certain gifts in this life, these gifts have been given to us to be a blessing and help to others. Some people call strengths, some people call them superpowers. I'm curious, what are those one or two gifts that you believe you were given? And how does that help how you help and bless people today?
Matthew:
Well, I suppose really, that's one of those questions, which is always very difficult to answer because no one always feels this sort of thing that other people should be answering for you. But I suppose the thing that I'm probably best at is, creating solutions or integrating or synthesizing solutions.in other words, my background is, finance-based technology-based, really, what I wouldn't say is I'm good at it. But what seems to be most successful for me over the years, is really combining this concept of, financial platforms, availability, systems, processes, and creating, the machinery to enable people to do things for themselves that otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to do. I'm not sure if that answers your question, but it's always a very difficult question to answer. One last thing, I do cook a mean Indian curry, and I'm actually quite excited about the moment I've got one sort of bubbling away in the slow cooker right now. It is something that's deceiving should be quite good to know.
Brett:
I love that’s a great gift to have for the family and for and for everyone else, too. I've heard the same that we don't rise to the level of their aspirations of our goals. We actually fall to the levels of our systems right and our processes and our procedures, I love the way you put that creating solution, integrating solutions, and then combining financial platforms to be able to solve problems in a systematic way. I think that's wonderful. That's perfect for our next part of this, how to get equity freedom in your home. Matt, can you take us kind of step by step through this process? What's the number one secret of the first step to unlocking this equity freedom in your home?
