| 0:11.1 | Hello, the Smart Money Tree podcast listeners. Welcome to this week's show. My name's Kurt Chisholm and I'm going to be your host today. So we're going to be talking with Rod Khalif today. How you doing today, Rod? |
| 0:20.7 | Thanks for having me here. Let's have some fun today. Yeah, thanks for coming on the show. I've been |
| 0:24.6 | trying to get you on for a while and finally got our schedules aligned. But really wanted to bring |
| 0:29.2 | Rod on because Rod is just a wealth of knowledge. And I think some of his experiences are going |
| 0:34.7 | to really really be helpful for a lot of the listeners to really kind of |
| 0:37.8 | understand the goods and bad. So can you kind of tell us a little bit about your background? |
| 0:42.6 | I immigrated this country. I have to go back quite a ways because it ties into what I want to |

| 1:31.6 | And so with her babysitting money, she invested in the stock market and actually did quite |
| 1:35.2 | well. |
| 1:36.2 | And she also used that babysitting money to buy the house across the street from us when I was |
| 1:39.6 | 14 for about $30,000. |
| 1:42.8 | And then when I was 17, she told me she'd made $20,000 in her sleep. |
