In the world of real estate investing, there are so many entry points, vehicles and paths we can chase down. But trying to chase down too many paths can take you out of business. Is it smarter to focus on one thing instead?

It’s no coincidence that most investors struggle the most when they have their hands in too many pies. We would make a lot more money if we freed up our cash and mental bandwidth and applied it to one proven path.

That’s what speaker, 2x UltraMarathoner, Real Estate Developer and the CEO of Barefoot Land Co, Brady McDonald did. Instead of spreading himself too thin, he concentrated his efforts in the self-storage development space. His secret? Choosing to do hard things on purpose.

As an ultra-endurance runner, he overcame addiction, conquered the pressures of real estate, and scaled businesses across borders.

Brady talks about how real estate challenges mirror ultra-endurance events and how the mindset of overcoming massive obstacles translates into real-life success.

Are you tired of handing over control of your hard-earned money to traditional banks? You’ve worked hard, only to find your dollars barely working for you. Every paycheck you deposit, every investment you make—where does that money go? It ends up fueling someone else’s bank.

The banking system is built to make the banks richer by lending out your money at higher interest rates while paying you a fraction in return. But what if you could flip the script and take back control?

That’s where the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC) comes in. This game-changing strategy puts you in the driver’s seat of your financial future. Imagine a world where you become your own bank—able to grow your wealth while leveraging your money to create more opportunities. Today, I’m going to break this concept down in a way anyone can understand and share all the advantages you can gain from it.

Things You’ll Learn In This Episode

-Control your own capital

Most people park their paychecks in banks someone else controls. The bank then leverages that money to make more money. How can you get all the benefits the banks get for yourself?

-The beauty of Infinite Banking

People often have to choose between going after opportunities and saving their money. How does Infinite Banking give you the best of both worlds?

-How to transform your financial life forever

Instead of taking a bank loan when you need to invest in a car, a home, or even the stock market, why is it better to borrow money from your own bank?

We’ve all heard the buzz about blockchain, but how much do we really understand its potential to transform our everyday lives? Right now, we live in a world dominated by centralized systems—banks control our finances, corporations hold our data, and middlemen dictate transactions.

But what if there were a better way?

Centralized systems have dominated for decades but are riddled with significant flaws, including single points of failure that can lead to catastrophic system-wide failures, a lack of transparency that undermines trust and accountability, and inefficiencies that hinder optimal performance and adaptability.

Blockchain isn't just a buzzword—it’s the key to solving some of the biggest inefficiencies in finance, healthcare, supply chains, and beyond. Blockchain flips the script by introducing a decentralized model. Instead of placing trust in a single entity, it uses a distributed ledger where every transaction is verified and recorded by multiple participants.

In this episode, five-time TEDx speaker, co-founder of SydTek DAO and a professor at Penn State University, Justin Goldston joins me to talk about decentralization and its impact. We also talk about bringing education and finance to people in a new and different way.

Things You’ll Learn In This Episode

-The truth about Universal Basic Income

Universal Basic Income provides a guaranteed minimum income to all individuals, aiming to reduce inequality and poverty. Could UBI become a necessity in a future shaped by automation and economic shifts?

-How to drive success

Gamification motivates engagement and drives success by turning tasks into rewarding experiences. How does gamification enhance motivation and create opportunities for profit?

-What we can learn from kids

Kids often grasp gamification better than adults due to their familiarity with game mechanics and immersive digital experiences. How can adults bridge the gap in understanding gamification to engage more effectively?
