Welcome to Freedom Fastlane. This is Ryan Daniel Moran. And you're going to be hearing one of the keynote speeches today from Freedom Fastlane Live 2015. And it's the infamous keynote with Grant Cardone. Now, I call it infamous because I have publicly expressed my

disappointment in this keynote. And I'm going to tell you a little bit about the story of what

actually happened behind this stage, behind the curtain at Freedom Fastlane Live with Grant Cardone.

And I have thought for a long time about doing

a blog post about this, but to be quite honest with you, it's just not worth my time to think about

things that are negative or you're not happy with. It's water under the bridge. What can you do?

But there is a story that I have never shared publicly,

although Grant Cardone started a Twitter war with me a couple weeks ago,

accusing me of hating him publicly.

Look, the truth is I have nothing against the guy.

He just didn't bring the goods from stage at all. So the

story here is that about a year and a half ago, before Freedom Fastlane Live, I was looking

for somebody to speak on the investment side of things. I wanted to be inspired to take my investing under the

Fastlane. And I heard this interview with Grant Cardone, and I heard that the guy owned $350

million in real estate. And I was like, this is the dude. Like, I got to get this guy on because

$350 million will make a nice down payment on my Cleveland Indians.

And I realize at that point I had been operating in the slow lane when it came to real estate investing.

Now, I've got a decent holding of single family houses.

I am learning about multifamily houses from people like Jay Massey. I wanted to learn from

Grant Cardone. And I invited Grant to the stage after researching him very heavily. And I noticed that

he talked a lot about crushing it or hustle or whatever the hell it's about. And sales tactics, but

he didn't talk about real estate very much, but that was supposedly his primary business.
