Welcome to Good Money, where we help you grow your net worth so you can use it for good.

This is the place where we believe money is not bad and you should have a lot more of it.

I'm your host, Derek Kenney.

Well today is a big day for me.

My guest on the Good Money Podcast is Brian Bafini.

Now Brian is a man that I have called a mentor for many, many years.

He's a friend, he's a man I highly respect, and it's always a joy for all of you listening.

When you can bring a guest on who has impacted you personally.

And Brian has impacted my family life, he's impacted my financial life, and he's made

me a better business owner.

Brian immigrated to the U.S. from Ireland as a teenager.

After a terrible motorcycle accident, landed him in $250,000 medical debt.

Brian needed a job and fast.

So he took advantage of some free real estate training.

By 26, he had become one of the top realtors in all of California.

Now he runs the largest business coaching and training company in North America.

Today, Brian shares the incredible story of how he made all that happen.

Plus, he reveals the common characteristics successful immigrants have, why he credits

his style of goal setting to his wealth and says that it's harder to give the more money

you have.

I think you'll find the reason, surprising.

Brian, it is such a joy to have you on Good Money.
