Summary

Serial entrepreneur Edwin Carrion has been hustling since he was fourteen years old. After serving in the Marines, he started working in real estate development. He worked hard, scaled and grew his business so he could finally afford to purchase a Lamborghini, a dream he's had ever since he was 15 years old. He felt like he was on top of the world…until the 2009 real estate housing crash wiped him out.

But you can't keep an entrepreneur with a hustler mentality like Edwin down for too long. He rebuilt himself and founded several companies in real-estate, transport, business education, and consultancy. Edwin shares his belief in finding balance in life, putting his family first, and not compromising core values.

military pride.

And after he left, he began real estate development, which he kept scaling up until he became a millionaire.

But like every good success story, Edwin's part had a massive obstacle, and like so many

0:55.7

others, in 2009 when the real estate crash happened, he was caught overextended and lost

everything.

But I'll always say the most important thing is not what you have, but what you've learned

along the way.

again in real estate, but also in transportation, in business education, and now in consulting.
