Besides faith, I live by the five Fs.

It's faith, family, finances, fitness, and freedom.

And I think we've touched on the faith and the family piece.

I want to talk about the financial side, because obviously you've built a pretty, actually,

let's take that back.

You've built a very successful empire for yourself.

And congratulations.

Thank you.

And you've got a great team. They're super hospitable and welcoming, which was super appreciated. How did you start in your career?

Like, I know you were a baseball player, but where did the entrepreneur bug come from?

Yeah. I never wanted to be an entrepreneur. And this is actually a really good lesson for those

who are maybe unsure of what to do.

So, you know, I grew up a baseball player, like I said, and I was always very good. And, you know, eventually I got drafted.

And, you know, I was only making $6,000 a year playing baseball. Really? Yeah. I mean, in the minor leagues, you only make, at that time, $1,200 a month, and you only play

five, six months out of the year.

Yeah.

So I had to become an entrepreneur in order to live and pursue my dream.

And so I became an entrepreneur out of necessity because I couldn't, like, go get a normal job and then go train and leave and all that stuff. And so that led me to real estate,

which I hated. You know, I became a realtor back in 2010 when I was 21 years old, hated it,

sucked at it, didn't care for it, quit after a couple years.

And then at the time, I didn't know it, but I got a prophetic word.

I just, once again, like, I didn't grow up in a charismatic Pentecostal type church. And so I didn't really believe that God still, like, spoke in that way.
