Would you spend more time with your family, with your wife, with your kids? Take family vacations. Would you pursue your gifts and talents and dreams? Serve your local community, teach others, serve your church. You see if what you would do if money didn't matter, it was pursuing your gifts and talents and dreams to serve others, and that is probably what you should be doing. The problem is most people are in the rat race, living five inches in front of their face with no time to pursue what they were born to do. That is the problem, and the solution is to develop enough passive income to replace your working income so you can quit your job and be free to live your life the way you were created to. That is a solution and this podcast will show you how... Ryan Enk:                          Hey everybody, welcome to another awesome episode of Cash Flow Dad Life. We have a special guest on with us today, Paul Del Pozo. Paul, welcome to the show! Paul Del Pozo:                  Ah, what's going on man, thanks for having me on. Thank you. Thank you. Ryan Enk:                          Thank you so much for coming. I invited Paula come on because Paul is just an all around great guy. He's also, you know, really in the flipping game, as far as like wholesaling goes, so not just locally, but he's also got a virtual elements of business. But another really interesting thing about Paul, which is why I invited him to come on because we haven't had a guest on the show like this, but he has actually a really cool facebook community called, "Flex and Flip" because he's very into fitness... It's just a great community. I'm a part of it myself and it's a great community to be a part of because, you know, there's daily inspiration there that he provides. Not only that, but it's just, you know, like a, a community of real estate investors and people were interested in getting started in business. So, it's amazing how much your actual fitness plays a part in your success in business. But we'll touch on that in a little bit. Paul, if you could just start us off, kind of tell us where you were at in your life before you looked at real estate and said, "This is something that I think I need to do." Paul Del Pozo:                  Right, right. Well Ryan, thanks for having me on and allowing me to share my story with your audience. I always love connecting with people out there that may have a similar experience in that can help them connect and just keep going forward and moving forward. Before I got an investing, um, I was trying to kind of find my next thing, which is I think very common with entrepreneurs or investors there during that transitional period, trying to figure out what that next move. I had spent about 10 years in the sports nutrition industry as a athlete and also, you know, as a salesperson now eventually sells manager within the industry, within one of the larger companies and in the business, but always with, you know, the desire of making things better within the company. Paul Del Pozo:                  I had these things, oh, I can do this better, I could do that better. Nobody's having this idea of how I would be able to do things all the while, you know, always having, as we call side hustles of rig --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cashflow-dadlife/support

I'm your host Ryan Enk and I've got a special guest on with us today. Mr Brian Grignon, welcome to the show. Brian Grignon:                 Hey, thanks Ryan. Thanks for having me. Ryan Enk:                          I invited Brian on because his story is pretty inspiring. He like many of you, is starting out in real estate and you know, one of the biggest things in real estate is actually taking action.  I talk about it in my book, the seven day blueprint. I'm trying to remember the name of my own book, the seven day real estate survival blueprint... I've talked about just taking action is being like one of the biggest catalysts to actually making sure you have a check in your hand. The reason that I have Brian on the show is because Brian, you know, came from a similar background with his first deal and a struggle with a lot of what people struggle with, like analysis paralysis, you know, certain fear and also making the thought of real estate and the idea of "Yeah, I could probably do this," become a reality and making it a reality by taking action. When he did it, I don't want to, I don't want to give away the total number. I'll let Brian do that... But when he finally did that, he was rewarded a pretty handedly with his first check with real estate.  So from going, going from zero experience to cashing in on a pretty big check. So Brian, if you would, can you share a little bit about your backstory before you got started? Real estate, what was going on in your life and what made you decide to try it out? Brian Grignon:                 Sure. Thanks right. So many people I nine five job. I still have one actually. So, um, and you know, you get kind of stuck and you feel like I needed something else. I just like you, have lots of kids. I had five at the time, but I had four, I now have five and I wanted it to be able to do something. I want it to be able to feel like I had sort of control over my own destiny a little bit. I'm a little bit of freedom and so I think actually speaking to you one day and I said, you know, I'm really not sure what to do. We tried real estate. I don't know about that. But you know, that kind of ruminated I remember one day... Ryan Enk:                          What was making you so hesitant about real estate?

Please welcome. If you're just sitting there in your car, I guess just clap your hands or whatever, you know. Welcome Corey Durkin. Cory Durkin...he's got a new book out called, You Can't Get Rich If You Feel Poor. Ryan Enk:                          And I love this concept, but let me just give you a little bit of a background on Corey. Corey is a speaker, he's an author, he's a podcaster, he's an angel investor, he's a musician. He drinks a crap load of coffee and about 17 other things... Ryan Enk:                          One of the things that he believes is that when he's dead...though, he does use a therapeutic pillow when he actually does sleep, is that he will sleep when he's dead. Ryan Enk:                          My dad used to have this phrase when we went on vacation, "sleep is for wimps," and he still says that although he falls asleep watching a movie at 9:30 pm on a weekday. Ryan Enk:                          I love it. He's, he's a incredibly high on life and entrepreneur and one of the main reasons, although he does, he does a lot of stuff and especially he's dabbled in real estate more specifically the short term rentals... Ryan Enk:                          One of the reasons I really wanted him to come on the show is because of his new book that he has called You Can't Get Rich If You Feel Poor. Ryan Enk:                          It talks about a certain mindset. Ryan Enk:                          And what's so special about this concept is when I first got started in life after I got married is I listened to a lot of Susie Orman and Dave Ramsey and I know a lot of people are really big fans of theirs. And I'm actually, I love some of the concepts they teach as well.                                           But what they teach is this focus on your expenses and your debt...                                            And you know, when you're focusing on just, "Hey, I need to get out of debt. I need to get out of debt. I need to get out of debt," you're not focusing on living life abundantly.                                            So it was actually a real struggle for my marriage because, you know, I'm sitting there making, you know, I'm counting the number of sheets of toilet paper and my wife is, you know, she's having to cut coupons for the groceries and just wasn't a way to live.

I'm stoked for our guest today... Clay Popham is kind of a local investor here and uh, he's actually crushing it right now here in Louisiana, but he's been doing real estate investing all over the place. And originally I don't think you're from Louisiana, right? You came from, was it Georgia? Clay Popham: Yeah, I grew up in south Georgia and lived all over the country. Ryan Enk: So one of the main reasons, guys, that I wanted Clay to come on the show is because one of the things that we talk about and one of the biggest barriers that people have when they're trying to get started investing in real estate or if they've gotten started, but you know, maybe they put the brakes on for awhile and they wait till they get enough money to do the next deal... One of the reasons that I was really excited to have clay come on is because he has done a tremendous job at raising private capital and with his new company, a High Ground Solutions Llc, he's raised over a million dollars and the way he did it was pretty easy. So I invited him on the podcast to share with us just his story and how he did that and hopefully you guys can glean some tips and get some confidence and knowing that it's really quite easy to raise private capital for I really good real estate investment if you know what you're doing.  So thank you so much, Clay, for agreeing to come on the show. And it's a pleasure to have you here... Clay Popham: Yeah, thanks for having me, Ryan. Ryan Enk: So if you could just start us off, tell us a little bit about your backstory. What made you want to get started with real estate investing in the first place? Clay Popham: Well, I don't know how deep you want me to go into this... Ryan Enk: Deep... Clay Popham: So at 17 I joined the marine corps and was doing marine for things. Uh, after about six years got picked up to be a part of a commissioning program that sent me back to college. So I decided to go to Auburn University even though I'd never been to the state of Alabama the day that I showed up there. As I was driving around looking for apartments that were $1,200 a month for rent, I drove past the townhouse. I had a for sale by owner called them up. They gave me a price. I called the bank and maybe preface this a little bit more. I don't come from any money at all.

I'm your host Ryan Enk, and today we're going to be talking about the foundation of everything that you need to do to get started with real estate investing. There's one thing that is so important, but before we get into all of that, I want to wish you guys all a happy thanksgiving. My prayers are with you. I pray that you are blessed and that's  I'm so grateful for you for listening to this podcast for however long you've been listening to it. Even if this is your first episode, I'm grateful that you're here and I feel truly blessed to have the opportunity to be able to have people that listened to what I have to say of. So thank you so much for listening. I don't know how many of you guys talking about Thanksgiving... I don't know how many of you have Thanksgiving traditions, but we've got this one tradition that stayed the same for all the years of my life as young as I can remember, four years old... We always did a Turkey bowl and that's, you know in the once a year and the morning of thanksgiving, no matter how cold it was outside, uh, even back when we lived in Salt Lake City when it was freezing cold and there was snow on the ground, uh, no, no matter what the weather was like, we always got up in the morning and we'd play football or a soccer game in the morning of Thanksgiving... We do it with everybody in the family obviously, but, you know, we, we invite friends or extended family and uh, we play this tackle football game and it was amazing. The whole idea is that you play this game and you work up an appetite to eat more than you should later on in the afternoon when you're having Thanksgiving dinner. So I'm carrying on the tradition with my kids and we're driving to the Turkey bowl on Thanksgiving morning. And it was actually really humbling because I was bragging and I was saying to my kids too, my memory, they asked me, you, what is your record for the Turkey bowl? I was like, to my memory, I've never lost a game, you know, I probably did but I was like, you know, I don't think I've ever lost the Turkey bowl. I think that I've always been on the winning side and it's always been because of me, you know, just kind of a playfully bragging to my kids and so like, oh, we're going to get you this time dad. So at a certain point during the Turkey bowl today, I thought to myself, you know, be kind of cool for them to have this bragging right...

We have Mr. Bill Crane, he's got years and years, decades and decades of real estate experience... He's a husband, father, mentor. He's done just about everything there is to do in real estate, but today he's going to share with us his knowledge, his expertise, and his wisdom on how to do live in house flipping, which is a pretty unique concept. But first, Bill, if you could tell us a little bit about your backstory.  Tell us a little bit how you got started in real estate... Bill Crane :  Absolutely. Ryan, thank you so much for him. Beyond in, I love your concept of... What did you call it? Dad's in real estate or Cash Flow Dad Life... Bill Crane :  Oh, it's so awesome because, I feel like why didn't I think of that because that's kind of the life I've been living forever. You know, I got married young and can, we started a family and it's been all about cash flow since because as you know, wow, it's expensive to have a family, but it's cheap or how I got started in real estate. You know, I grew up a poor kid. I lived in an apartment, kind of a not so great apartment, but I had to walk to school about a mile or so. It was up hill both ways through three feet of snow and all that stuff. My kids love that story, but I had to walk past these spectacular homes on the way to school and I always thought to myself, well, how come I have to live in the apartment and these people get to live in these amazing homes... Bill Crane :  So I was always fascinated by real estate as a kid. And then I was lucky enough to grow up kind of at the beginning of the information age where people like Dave del Dotto and Carlton Sheets running infomercials about how to get rich in real estate in buying these beautiful homes for no money down. And I thought to myself, well, I don't have any money so I'm qualified. So um, it always fascinated about real estate, so you know, right out of high school I went to work for a builder and to learn everything I could about real estate and I learned, I learned both sides of it because there was the sales side and then there was the construction management side.  So I really learned both sides of the business and I was lucky in that my superintendent liked drinking and playing golf more than he liked actually managing the drums job site. So, so he leaves this 18 year old kid to run the project.

He's actually the director of faith in marriage for the Willwoods community down here in New Orleans, but also it's a ministry that branches nationwide. I'm extremely honored to have Jason Angelette, father of five, just like myself on the show and I just want to make sure you can hear me correctly. Jason, can you hear me? Jason Angelette: All right, I hear you brother. Thanks for having me on, man. Ryan Enk: Perfect. So, you know, a lot of times, you know, you might get a question, "Hey, I come here to listen to real estate investing advice and all this other stuff." We did an episode on the spousal effect where we talked about the effect that your spouse has on all the other aspects of your life. Ryan Enk: And to me, this is such a core issue because I can't tell you how many times I hear from people that, you know, "Hey, I'm really interested in getting started, but you know, my wife is the problem, or my husband is the problem." They're, you know, there's a lot of things that are factors that play into this. It could be fear, it could be trust, but you know, something that you told me once that always resonated with me is that you say that a lot of times the, the husband or the wife will come talk to you or talking together and counselors have reiterated this, but they always say that the number one problem that a husband has about his wife is that he doesn't feel respected in all he does. Jason Angelette: Yeah. And the number one problem that the woman says that she never feels like a priority. Ryan Enk: So, you know, a lot of times we just think it's surface issues. Like, oh, we don't have enough money right now, or we don't have this. It's probably all related to those core issues. So this episode we're going to really, really dig into some of those things and, and also, you know, kind of talk about some of the solutions that are there and, and, and my hope for this episode that you guys get a ton of, a really practical, useful knowledge that you can go home and you can start having a better relationship with your spouse and that this investment that you make in your spouse, the way you do one thing is the way you do all things.

I apologize guys for missing last Thursday. I had full intentions to release a podcast, but I was actually in Tampa looking at a billion dollar multifamily investment operation... So it was really cool stuff which I'll share with you guys later. But today I'm stoked to have on our show and experts in the hotel industry. I ended up suckering him to come on here and share his expertise with us and his wisdom. His name is Josh McCallen. Josh, you there? Can you hear me alright? Josh McCallen: Absolutely. Great to be here Ryan. Ryan Enk: And for those of you that are watching, Josh has got a sweet green screen in the background with his perfect, perfect setup. So Josh is actually an expert in the hotel industry and our episode today is going to be about how you can get started in playing monopoly in real life. How you can get started in investing in hotels like in monopoly. You know, the goal of the game is you first go around the board and you buy a bunch of houses, right? And then once you get past a certain level, you get started with investing in hotels and if somebody lands on your spot then you're bringing in a lot more cash flow. And so we're seeing a lot of different trends in the industry... What we're going to talk about today is the different ways that you can get started investing, the different strategies, the different plays that are out there. And Josh is going to give us the wisdom... Josh, can you give us a little bit of your background? Like what's your story? How did you even get started investing in hotels in the first place? Josh McCallen: Well, it's absolutely great to be with you Ryan. So the answer to that is there's a short form and long form, but the short form is this. I first was a house developer, very, very high end beach front. It's a matter of fact. We, uh, I was the project manager guy on the field building five, $6,000,000 houses during the boom days. Oh, six. Oh seven. And then right as the 2008 crash came at, business models stopped. So then years later we had a condo building, a hotel that we thought would be a condo building and by 2012 we were comfortable enough to try to get into the hotel industry by fixing that up. So basically the story is, I'm like, you just said, I'm just like most of your listeners. I started in the house world.

This was the weekend that Lsu absolutely got spanked by Alabama. Took my rv up there with a couple of guys. It was a great time except for the game. The game was the worst, but I've got to tell you guys, if you ever have a chance to tailgate and go to a game in an RV, it is like the best feeling in the world, especially if you lose because there's nothing worse than driving back in traffic after you've lost. But when you've got an Rv and you're staying there, you're like, "Eh, I can just take my time. I'm staying here on, on campus. I don't have to sit in traffic and soak the whole way back. I can just go back and eat some Gumbo, and grill some food and just have a good time for the rest of the night." So at any rate, it has been bittersweet because of that... But also because on Friday you guys have heard my story of how I started. I had a dream to open up an indoor sports arena, will Friday I sold the majority of it. And it's, it's a bittersweet memory. It's actually really awesome. You know, it's, it is a little different feeling that, you know, I don't, I don't control it anymore. But I feel really good about selling it and feel really good about the guy taking over. He's got a lot of skin in the game and he's going to do a great job managing it. And I haven't been managing it in the past four years. I've been trying to passively manage it. I wanted it to become a passive income investment, but realize there's no way for me to do that with so many employees because employees, you just, you have to manage employees and you have to support them. And I just wasn't giving them the support that they needed and so it needs to have like an active manager with skin in the game. So this is actually the perfect scenario because I can become a passive owner and, uh, let somebody else have a little more of a piece of the pie, but to where I don't have to spend four hours a week or one hour a week or any hours a week on managing the day to day operations. Now it's truly a passive income investment, which is awesome...

So the big question is this, what would you do if money didn't matter? So you had millions in your bank account, what would you focus on? Would you spend more time with your family, with your wife, with your kids? Take family vacations. Would you pursue your gifts and talents in dreams? Serve your local community, teach others, serve your church. You see if what you would do if money didn't matter, it was pursue your gifts and talents and dreams to serve others, and that is probably what you should be doing. The problem is most people are in the rat race, living five inches in front of their face with no time to pursue what they were born to do. That is the problem, and the solution is to develop enough passive income to replace your working income so you can quit your job and be free to live your life the way you were created to. That is the solution and this podcast will show you how. What's up everybody? Welcome to another episode of Cash Flow Dad Life. I'm your host Ryan Enk, and today we're going to be talking about the four phases to financial freedom, true financial freedom. I'm sorry, the four phases to true financial freedom. And the reason that I'm going over these phases is because it's really important for you to be able to identify where you are at right now in your life and set some goals and figure out what you need to do in order to get to that fourth phase. So here are the phases in a nutshell. The first is survival, the second is comfortable, the third is financial freedom, and the fourth is true financial freedom. So let's go over them one by one. So obviously the first phase to get to financial freedom is survival mode. Now, survival mode. I, I wrote an entire book about survival mode, and if you haven't gotten your book yet, you can go to cash flow [inaudible] dot com slash the number seven. And that's the, um, it's the seven day real estate survival blueprint, how to create 10,000 out of nothing in less than a month. Okay? Survival mode is really awesome, uh, in that it forces you to develop skills that you wouldn't normally develop. So back when I was, um, you know, survival mode is kinda like you aren't making enough to make ends meet every single month or you are just over being broke, you know, the job acronym just over broke. So, you know, when I was back and um, you know, Hurricane Katrina hit that put me in survival mode where, you know, I've got a wife who is pregnant for eight months and I've got to figure out somehow how I'm going to provide for my family. I got to figure out where we're going to live. I'm going to figure, I've got to figure out how I'm gonna pay for it, I got to find a job, you know, that's, that's survival mode. And that forced me to develop skills and to step outside my comfort zone in order to make things happen in order to make ends meet. Okay. So survival mode is a really purposeful. It's a really great place to be, um, because it, it puts you in that, uh, that, that category of development. Now, the second phase towards financial freedom is probably the most dangerous of all phases. This is the comfortable phase. Now this is where you, you, it's either you've got a good job and you're making a pretty good money and that's enough to survive a or you've started making passive income investments, so you've got some passive income rolling in and so that just, you know, that extra 200 to $500 a month really helps out in just your monthly activities, but it's not complete freedom and comfort mode is the worst place to be because it doesn't force you to develop outside of it. You know, the, the lack of freedom in the comfort zone --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cashflow-dadlife/support

I'm your host, Ryan Enk, and today we're going to talk about Time Tested Strategies verse New Real Estate Strategies, but first, here's our review of the week. This one comes from Jake, from Minnesota. He says, "I can't miss a podcast. I first heard of Ryan through another podcast, loved his message, so I decided to check out his site. I ended up taking a course or two of his and started listening to his podcast last week... "I've binged through 40 plus episodes now and they don't get old or stale or dull. Ryan always has fresh stories, lessons and tips to share. Not to mention that my wife and I a really laugh at his personal family stories. I am hoping to one day be a guest on the show as a success story. Thanks Ryan." Well, thank you jake... I definitely appreciate the review and guys, if you've been a listener for awhile and haven't reviewed yet, I would love to get a review from you as well and that way I can give you a shout out. So a rank me review me, it just helps get the message out more. So I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was definitely jammed packed with stuff, uh, as it's sometimes gets with five boys in the house now there are few times that I've actually sat and reflected on my life and felt old. I try to live my life to the fullest so I don't have time to feel like I'm getting old, but there are times that come up that just make me think, wow, what the hell? I'm getting old. So the first time was when I looked in the mirror and saw a gray hair popping out of the side of my head. So naturally that made me feel a little old. The other was when I was talking to one of my kids about music and I mentioned the counting crows as if the band was still relevant to new. Uh, I went to a few of their concerts in college and my kids were like, that is like nineties music. And I was like, what are you talking about? The nineties weren't that long ago. And I was like, Oh yeah, they were, that was like 20 years ago. Crap, I'm old. But the oldest I think that I've felt is when my oldest son just became a teenager, man that makes me feel old. Seems like it was just last year that I was changing his diapers. But anyways, for his birthday party, we, uh, we went all out for it. He invited like 12 of his 13 year old friends. Um, so they came over to spend the night and even though it's October we went to being on the river, I do this thing called a t --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cashflow-dadlife/support

Today we're going to be talking about real estate horror stories... We're coming up on Halloween, so I thought it'd be fitting to talk about some of the horror stories, but first, let me read the review of the week. This one comes from Derek, a fellow New Orleans guy. It says, "Being a Nola native as all Nolan natives, we are drawn to all things New Orleans. Ryan does not disappoint, but truly should make no other proud. On a recent drive from Atlanta to Monroe, Louisiana round trip, I listened to the first 35 episodes are very entertaining and educational and well worth the time. I too started adult life as a teacher. Have five kids, three girls, and landed a throat punch in grammar school unexpectedly scared the hell out of me..." "Ryan's stories and strategies resonate deeply with me. However, what strikes me most is his faith, integrity, and pursuit of virtue in business. The last bit makes it worthy not only of listen, but a following-Derek." Hey Derek. Thank you so much for that shout out and for the great review and ranking on itunes. If anybody else would like to rank me, subscribe, write a review. I do read these reviews once a week and uh, I do love reading them and I love the support and the encouragement to keep on giving you guys great content. So let's get into today's topic, real estate horror stories... You know, don't let this deter you from investing, but I see weird or bad situations a little different than other people. I see failures a little different than other people and I don't actively seek out failures, but road bumps, failures, hiccups. They're really just the way that the real world and life pushes us to improve. There really is no other way. So as I share these stories, just know that I'm both grateful that they happen and it has made my journey exciting. Also, they make for funny stories to tell you guys. So I'm grateful for that as well...

I'm your host, Ryan Enc and today we're going to be talking about the numbers that you need to look for. Okay? Know your numbers. What does this mean? You know, I got into trouble a little while ago for not knowing my numbers. Here's what happened... My son who was nine at the time was starting to run cross country and he was doing very well and you know, winning first place in a lot of these races. But I've got this competitive streak with me and I didn't want him developing too big of an ego. So I was like, "Why don't we go for a race real quick?" So our block is exactly a mile. So we, we wagered something and he was talking a little bit of smack but it was mostly instigated by me... So he's really just kind of, you know, returning the smack, talk completely my fault. And we set up to race and at this point all the kids are getting into. Mom's getting into it. Everybody's on the front yard. Just making a big production about this. We say on your mark, get set, go. Well he takes off, we've got a mile. He takes off sprinting and I'm at like upper jog now. I'm not exactly in tremendous shape, but I'm not out of shape. I play soccer every single week at my facility. I work out, I, I hit the treadmill sometimes I do jogging sometimes, so it's not like I'm out of shape. I'm an adult competing against a nine year old child. So to me that should indicate that I would win completely emotional decision. So he breaks off sprinting and I think to myself, look at this sucker. He's going to be completely out of wind. He's going to be completely out of when before the quarter mile and meanwhile I. So he's blown ahead of me and meanwhile I'm just at like a upper medium paced jog and then he takes the quarter for the first quarter mile and he's not letting up. So I see him turn this corner and he still in a full on sprint. So at this point I think to myself, oh crap, maybe, maybe he's not slowing down right away just to make sure I got to get a little closer. So then I break out into a light sprint. So by the time I get to the corner of the quarter mile, I don't even see him on the other corner. So he was still running fast enough to the two. By the time I reached that corner, I couldn't even see him...  So then I go into a medium sprint and I take that last corner and I see him incredibly far ahead of me. So I've got about three quarters of a mile left and --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cashflow-dadlife/support

The stock market plunged 834 points yesterday. Ouch. So I brought in an expert... He was super hard to get ahold of. His schedule is incredibly busy. Please welcome to the show, my son, Caleb Enk is 10 years old...Say, "What's up?" Caleb Enk: What's up! Ryan Enk: So just to give you kind of the backstory on the stock market with me and Caleb here is I don't like investing in stocks. I'm more of a real estate guy. That being said, I do invest in stocks. It's just part of diversifying your portfolio. But the reason that it's not a major part of my portfolio is because stocks are so... It's not real. It's not a real asset. And I don't know if you've heard that comment before. The first time I heard this, it blew my mind and the comment was that money isn't real. You know? And, and if you just sit there and think about that for a second. Money isn't real. It's just a medium of exchange... And nothing proves that money isn't real anymore than the stock market, where yesterday all of a sudden trillions of dollars are lost. And for what? And for what? Cause there's no asset value behind it. There is no nothing real behind that. Now real estate, I love because it's real, but like I said, I still invest in the stock market and I encourage all my kids to know how to invest in the stock market as well and because it is a tremendous wealth creator, if you know how to do it right, the problem is that most people overcomplicate things and really all it comes down to is figuring out what most entrepreneurs, most investors do. How can you minimize your risk while maximizing your returns? So I brought on my 10 year old to kind of explain some of the concepts that he knows. It's so easy that even a 10 year old can do it. But actually he started when he was eight years old... Caleb, can you share with everybody kind of the story on how you get started investing in the stock market? My Dad told us we need to clean the garage, but the garage had so much things clutter around and stuff in it, so we complain. Then my dad says, "If you cleaned the garage, I'll give you $10, but $100 in your bank accounts, you can buy stock." So we agreed with that... So we clean the garage and then he decided to analyze stocks to see which one is done best.
