hhhhhhhh….another one of these? Are you changing the direction of your podcasts into self help ones?
You’re really getting the big hitters these days!
It was painful, when someone told me I can’t do nothing for. I studied a lot, listen to Bigger Pockets ever week for four years, and worked in job that will help me towards real estate investing. I just need a little push. What I learned was I need to find mentors that are in the position to help others and seniors who retired from investing, because I realized that a lot of seniors love helping the next generation. Today it’s all about what you can do for me.
