My 10 biggest lessons from 10 years in real estate and a $10 million portfolio. I didn't come from money. I came from corporate engineering, and I learned almost every one of these lessons the hard way, so you don't have to.

I've split this video into five lessons about money and five lessons about myself. You'll hear how I went from hyperventilating in a checkout line over a bedroom set to buying assets sight unseen, why passive income still takes me hours every week, the lesson I didn't learn until year 7 of my journey, and what I discovered about myself after my first million dollar year. If you're a high achiever who has done the research but still feels stuck, this one is for you.
