I never wanted to be successful or even own a home. Didn't want kids. Didn't want to get married. Things changed. I have flipped hundreds of homes, dozens of multifamily, and built millions of square feet of commercial and retail. I live in a house worth more than most in my family had made in their entire career and only owe a tenth of its value on a mortgage. I have five kids ranging from 6 to 29 and am very much in love with my wife. At one point I had 14 full time employees in the office and 6 supervisors in the field running dozens of jobs per month with hundreds of trades. I thought I was doing all this for my family while barely making it in time for every game and having to leave early from parties. One time we went to Disney and I was on the phone the whole time to the point of annoying others in lines. That made me tons of cash. It wasn't success. I sold it all and did nothing for a year. Renovated my own home with my own hands. Bike rides, surfing, park trips, bought an RV and traveled around with my family. It was awesome. I got bored and tired of watching people fail. So I flip a few homes a year and consult for REITs and family trusts. I don't hustle anymore other than to chase down one of my kids as they get into my tools again. The problem solving and constant learning after 25 years has kept me fed and happy in a way that chasing deals never did. That is a kind of success I didn't even know was possible. I don't mentor. But I will answer any question you have. And I wrote it all down. Start at the End — reiguideservice.com
