In this raw Dropping Bombs episode, Billy Fain reveals the roofing secrets behind how he escaped 25 years of miserable retail to bootstrap the debt-free, 8-figure Serenity Roofing & Construction empire. From praying broke with $400 to his name to ranking #93 nationally in year one, Billy shares the discipline, cash flow strategy, and sales-over-labor mindset separating millionaires from broke hard workers.
Hear the unfiltered truth: surviving a $130K scam, working 110-hour weeks, and why 97% of roofing startups fail. Billy breaks down the $3M apartment deal that funded his first commercial property, why hard work alone is a trap, and the exact commission structure that built his fortune. If you're ready for the blueprint to escape corporate handcuffs and build real wealth through grit and execution, this conversation is essential.
