I recently spoke in Austin about my journey from renting a spare room for $35 a night to building a $13M portfolio. In this video, I’m getting honest about why real estate is a "love story" for me—it’s the escape vehicle that gave my wife and me our freedom back. I break down the exact strategies I use, from the Short-Term Rental Loophole for W-2 workers to why I’m now focused on boutique hotels for forced appreciation. Whether you’re looking to quit your job or scale your portfolio, I hope my mistakes and wins help you find your own path to freedom.

Real freedom isn't flexibility—it's ownership. If you don't own your income, your time, or your future, someone else owns you.
The American Dream has become a nightmare. As the wage gap explodes, your job has become the single riskiest thing you can hold onto. I break down exactly why trading your time for a stagnant paycheck is a trap, how AI and corporate greed are making traditional employment obsolete, and why relying on a 401k and health benefits is a form of manufactured comfort that keeps you stuck.
In This Video, I Show You:
Why "job security" is an outdated myth in the modern economy.
The connection between extreme ownership, patriotism, and community.
How to break the cycle of consumerism and renting your entire life.
Concrete steps to start building assets (real estate, business, side hustles) to create options and security.
The radical responsibility you must take TODAY to secure your family's future and escape the system.
It's riskier to have a job and own nothing than it is to take a calculated risk and build for yourself. The time to own your life is NOW.

Is your 401(k) really going to make you rich — or just make Wall Street richer? In this eye-opening episode me and Rich Somers break down why traditional 401(k) planning can fail most people, how the early-withdrawal penalty works, and exactly how they used 401(k) funds as seed money to scale into high-cash-flow real estate deals. Learn the real rules about cash out 401(k) strategies, early withdrawal 10% penalty, RMDs, 1031 exchanges, self-directed IRA options, and how to calculate the true opportunity cost of letting your retirement money sit. If you’re serious about building passive income and real estate wealth — watch to the end.
