And so anyways, yeah, I just I got turned on by it back then.
You got to go way, you know, 23 plus years ago.
No social media, no Tommy Mello podcast and get mentoring.
Yeah, like I was just figuring it out.
flying around.
I would look in the back of newspapers and see little classified ads for a real estate seminar, Reno, Nevada, Sheridan Airport Inn, 500 bucks.
And I'd get my butt on a plane and I'd go and I was scared to death.
And I looked like I was 12 and I had no money.
And here I am believing that I could
flip houses and buy a Mercedes or something, you know?
And it took me 14 months, man.
It took me 14 months to do my first deal.
I don't know very much.
I look back now and I'm like, dude, you're just crazy enough and hardheaded enough and relentless enough to believe that you can do it.
But I didn't have much of a choice.
what was my alternatives?
We had no money.
I was broke.
I was going to school.
I really didn't even want to do finance.
