Because I grew up with a single mom that struggled.

I was very frugal with my money because I already understood like,

okay, money is very valuable and it's not abundant so I needed like save as much as possible

so that's why when I bought my first house I didn't I didn't know about sub two or

seller finance all this crap I was like all right you saved and a half percent, and then you go buy a house. So that's what I did. And then I also had the realization later on that I was like, okay, if I want to be rich or wealthy I have to grow my income

because I was a realtor making like six figures a year and I was like okay like I'm working my ass off with open houses cold calling

Fizbos expired but I'm only making a hundred k and then I met Ryan and then Ryan was doing a million dollars flipping houses and I was like okay like I'm a realtor

I could probably do that because he's just buying and selling houses and then that's

what got me into investing so it's very similar to you here's what I like about

your story and here's what doesn't get told. People hear that and it gets

chopped down into a social media 8 second reel. Yeah. And what they hear is I was doing

it the wrong way. I was selling houses but when I met Ryan I realized the right way to do it.

And what they think is, I'm just waiting for my Ryan.

If I can just find the right piece in person, luck will hit me, all the pieces will fall in

place, and I will be successful. I think people do this in the

dating world. You're married right? So there's a lot of people like the girls that are dating just

waiting for Prince Charming to show up. They're not thinking about what Prince Charming is looking for.

So here's what I was thinking when you were saying that.

Ryan meets five to ten people a day that he actually probably pays attention to.

Yeah.

There's three hundred sixty five days in year that's a lot of people that he's coming across.

It was not luck that he saw you and was like, oh, you know, I'm just going to throw this guy a bone.
