Summary

Todays guest is just seventeen years old, and has packed more into his last few years than most of us manage in a lifetime. An entrepreneur investor, author, go getter, speaker, money lender, lover of riding dirt bikes, and writing music, he really has the drive to make things occur and on his own terms too. As he says in his own words "I learned early that you don't get what you don't ask for. When I was 13 I asked my parents if I could put my income from appearing in a TV commercial to better use by partnering with them on a real estate project. They said "Yes." When I was 14 and working on my first book I asked Donald Trump if he'd answer some questions about entrepreneurship. He said "Yes." Like anyone else, I've heard my share of "No's," too. "No" is a part of life and certainly a part of business but I try not to take rejection personally. Hearing "No" motivates me to try harder next time." So is it that simple, or is there so much more to becoming a success and a millionaire by such an early age? Well we are going to find out as our guest planned to be one before leaving college! Big dreams indeed. Its a delight to bring onto the show, to start joining up the dots of his life, the one and only Houston Gunn.
