Protest Or Invest? Start your Group Home!
One of my FREE 10-PART COURSE client and a group home owner texted me yesterday (yes, he has my private #).
He is a younger dude – 21 years old – trying to get onto the fast track of success. Here is what he told me:
“Andy, many of my friends don’t have jobs. They know that school is a racket and don’t want $160,000 of debt when they get out. They are pissed and don’t have anything else to do but screw off and protest – and in some cases do worse things. What should I do?”
Ha! I wish I really knew the “perfect” answer….unfortunately I don’t. What I do know is that when I was young – probably 7th and 8th grade – I was more than happy to be a punk! So I get it….fortunately, by the time I hit about 14 or 15 I realized that money was a true separator and I wanted to be in the “haves” rather than the “have not’s”
I definitely received some direction during my youth about the qualities and characteristics of successful people – hard work, industriousness, focus, sacrifice etc.
BUT NOBODY EVER GAVE ME A SPECIFIC DETAILED ROADMAP LIKE I PROVIDE IN MY FREE 10-PART COURSE…
So what did I tell this young man?
Keep being an example. Be the role model. Eventually, your friends will come to you and ask you for guidance, help or employment.
I left it at that. He is on Group Home #2 and hopes to have 4 of them by the end of the year.
With four of them, he should be making anywhere from $7,000 – $11,000 per month.
He did not need a license or a $160,000 college education. He started with the FREE 10-PART COURSE and then eventually got some 1-on-1 coaching.
Next year I have a feeling his friends will begin reaching out to him and I will show him how to bring them on-board to his way of living.
Focusing on INVESTING rather than PROTESTING. Investing in themselves and their community. At that point, he can turn them into house managers or even division managers as he scales up his group home business. Just one of his friends could manage up to 20 group homes pretty easily and all of the sudden he will have an automated machine that someone else is running. This is the power of capitalism. It can bring up everyone.
He can then go on to build other companies, pursue real estate investments and other ventures and help lift up those around him. Eventually those around him will do the same.
This is the power of investing in oneself.
