How I Create Passive Income Through Mortgage Note Investing
Hey friends! I recently had the privilege of being a guest on Seth Bradley's popular Passive Income Attorney podcast. We covered a lot of ground chatting about my personal backstory, including my days as a college athlete, my time in the military, my long commute while working a government job, and how I eventually quit to start my own businesses. I share an amusing story about rupturing my Achilles tendon playing badminton - not exactly a "tough guy" sport - and how that was the final push I needed to walk away. I didn't get fired like Seth did (check out episode 74 of my podcast to hear that story!). One of my favorite parts is when I talk about my business coach's concept of "permanent beta." The idea is that as an entrepreneur, you should always be learning, growing, taking in new information with an open mind. Nothing is ever quite "finished" - you're always tweaking, improving, reevaluating. Other highlights include how I got into real estate and mortgage note investing, the importance of focusing on your strengths, and why buying performing vs non-performing mortgage notes appeals to different investors. I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences after listening. What stuck with you? Did anything surprise you? Let me know!
