NFTs have been absolutely exploding over the last year... but in my opinion, they have only just gotten started.   We've seen early NFT projects like CryptoPunks and Board Apes Yacht Club sell tokens for 7+ figures which kind of makes it seem like it is too late to get started   But I think there are some BIG changes coming to the crypto and NFT world in 2022 and beyond   There have already been pioneer projects like ZED RUN that have combined cryptocurrency, NFTs, and gambling, which has taken the market of NFTs way past digital art.    Will this trend continue? or are we in a bubble that is going to pop any day?   Listen to todays episode to hear my thoughts🔥 Enjoy!

If you know my story, I started 6 businesses prior to launching my fund... Meaning, I started 6 businesses that did not work, doing all kinds of stuff. And when I launched my first tiny fund (raising a mere $49,000) doing small micro loans, it didn't take that much work running the fund after I set it all up. So then I started thinking, "I wonder if I can do other stuff!" Yes, I suffer from shiny object syndrome, as I know most of you are. And thus split my focus into signing marketing clients, running ads and making sales funnels for them... Then I started getting into real estate wholesaling at the same time... That's 3 big projects going all at the same time, and I thought that I was doing all the right things. Then one day an entrepreneur came to speak to a class at the university I was attending, and as we talked afterwards, I began to kind of brag about all the businesses I was running.

If you've ever had to manage people before, then you know that it's not the easiest thing... Sometimes it feels like a full time job, which is why managers exist in the first place.

Next the question arose of, "Is that REALLY the best use of his time?" We both agreed that it definitely wasn't... Once we started to ask this question every day, and then focused on the most important tasks FIRST (the ones that make the $$$) we saw instant growth.

I was talking to my business partner about this last week when trying to figure out the best way to incentivise our new employees...

If you are house flipper or someone involved in the real estate world, then this episode is for you. If you've been doing syndicate deals for a while, you know that setting up each deal is a lot of work! Plus, you're usually playing with properties under $1mm...  With the fund model, this becomes a different game. My father is the co-founder of a $20B Family of Funds that concentrate on Real Estate... Instead of setting up each deal like you would with a flip, you set up the fund once, and then go out and buy properties worth a lot more! It all depends on how much you raise, but it isn't uncommon to start buying properties worth $10mm and up... which you make a lot more from once you sell.

When I first got involved in this game, I met with my dad, who co-runs a $20B fund... and he dove into this fund world to help me understand what’s going on.  Now I’ve read countless books on private equity and funds, and those books love to talk about a sexy deal or acquisition they did... Which is great and all, but they never dive into the actual GUTS and structure of a private equity fund! So today I thought it would be fitting to dive into the structure and guts of how a private equity fund actually operates.

Once your fund is up and running, and has some momentum... There is nothing more exciting! I remember when I was first getting traction, my fund consumed all my thoughts and actions... I'm sure my friends and family were getting annoyed at it too. From the deals I was finding, to finding investors, to the returns I was making... It was a dream come true! But there came a point when I realized that the fund is NOT the business... I was so consumed in growing my fund, that I was ignoring all the essential business parts of the fund that you need.

I'm not going to lie... I LOVE Capitalism! I mean, I do run a fund, haha. But if you've paid attention at all, the media is slowing pushing an "anti-capitalist", "pro-socialist" agenda (which is kind of ironic).

So in this episode, I spill all my thoughts on this, and why I think Capitalism is the greatest gift a nation can give its people.

Paul is one of my Dad's original partners on their first fund and has personally helped raise over $100 million from high-net-worth and family office investors. Paul is also one of our Mastermind mentors, and this is a small clip from a much longer interview that is included in our mastermind training course.  In this episode, Paul discusses how he would "get in the same room" as these investors, find who had the money, and get them to invest in their funds.  Paul also has a big heart and now donates a lot of his time to helping children who are in sex slavery. Paul spends a lot of his time, money, and resources to help bring these terrible criminals to justice.  He has helped produce a new movie "The Sound Of Freedom" starring Jim Caviezel that is planned to hit the box office toward the end of 2020.  This movie is based on true stories from their foundation's efforts to save children from sex slavery all across the globe.  You won't want to miss this episode.  Thanks, Bridger Pennington Investment Fund Secrets www.investmentfundsecrets.com

Amidst all the pandemic madness, it's been interesting to watch the responses of certain companies and funds... Our gut reaction as humans is to get into defense mode, preserve, and protect what we have so we don't lose it. That's exactly what hundreds of businesses are doing right now, two weeks into this behemoth and they're already laying off thousands of employees... ...While other financial gurus are saying to buckle down and play it safe! If you look at history, however, it may beg to differ. In today's episode, I dive into several companies AND funds that started during a time that everyone else was playing it safe.

Recently, Vivint did a Reverse Merger at $5.3B... ...So, what is a Reverse Merger? Basically, it goes like this: --> Vivint wants to go public, but they don't want to go the traditional route. (IPO, 12 months of pitching investors, etc...) So instead, they did a Reverse Merger. 👉There are shell companies (for example, Mosaic) listed on the market, which are looking for someone to partner with or purchase. So Vivint partnered with Mosaic (a shell company) for their reverse merger and accomplished what most try to do in 10-12 months in less than 30 days! Now, this method is very common... Some companies that do this include: Berkshire Hathaway Jamba Juice Burger King, Texas Instrument etc.. 👉 So, what are the pros and cons of doing it this way?

I started and launched 14 different businesses while I was in college... I got into school and I was like, "this is my time!" My theory was I’m going to get up to the plate and keep swinging... As long as I’m at the plate swinging, I'll eventually hit a double, triple, or even a home-run, right? As an Entrepreneur, you're investing in your self… entrepreneurs even see failure as progress.  Whether your next fund or even business for that matter does really well or fails, I see it as progress because I learn WAY faster starting businesses than any other way! I’ve worked at a PE fund, a large tech company in Silicon Valley… and I learned WAY more starting and running my own businesses than working a 9-5. For me, I’m trying to get from point A to point B as fast as possible and to do that I’ve got to learn and grow as much as I can!  That is why I Intentionally chose entrepreneurship when I got to college! So I was on business try #8… and we were building different websites and online advertisements for companies.  I was pretty good at doing this, and I had found a few people that partnered with me that were geniuses. I was good at selling and pitching companies, so we launched this business!  It was going okay… we had landed a few businesses and we would take an upfront fee of $5,000, and then we would take a revenue share of all the money we brought in through our ads and websites. Once you start having success: Friends and Family will doubt your businesses, say that “you’ve changed” and start distancing themselves from you… ... Which can make you mentally default back down to their level so you’ll have friends again. I actually heard Tony Robbins speak last week and he talks about the thermometer - we all have a temperature that we’re comfortable with that our friends and family like us at…  Once we start growing, it starts to get too hot. Then, something inside of us makes the AC kick on… and we sabotage our own success until we’re back to that same level with our family and friends.  This happens with athletes, they have a high thermometer of their fitness level… or whatever that is, if they start getting a little overweight, or maybe have a pregnancy, what happens right after the have the baby, then they hit the gym like a madwomen to get back to their weight that they are comfortable with.  That’s why the quote works if you took all the money from the wealthiest people in the world and gave it to the poor people… in a matter of time, the wealthy people would all have it back. Russel Brunson was saying that he has friends who say, “Man… you’re so lucky… I wish I could find something like that….” He was like WHATTT “LUCKY?” Are you kidding? I’ve been working my butt off for the past 15 years. Remember all those nights that you’d come home from work and hangout and watch Netflix, and all those Saturdays you took your kids to the beach, well I didn’t. I was tricking grinding and perfecting my trade. Don’t let this glass ceiling effect hit you. Where you can see above you, but you keep hitting something above your head and can’t progress. **If you found this helpful, leave a review for me!

So how can one tell if they have that "entrepreneur bug"?

What's the value of one connection? Some people find it hard to prioritize a relationship with someone that doesn't have any immediate pay off... ...What a lot of people don't have the *patience* for is the long-run payoff. Look at someone like Zion Williamson...  The connections he build throughout high-school and college landed him all the hype and media attention in the world, and over $45,000,000 before his first NBA game! (at the time of this recording, he is still yet to play his first game due to injury... but still got his $$$) One of my mentors in the marketing world (Russell Brunson) spent 10 years creating a relationship with Tony Robbins which didn't make him a dime...  ...But after that 10 year mark, Tony promoted his book, selling thousands of copies while creating thousands of software users, as well as many other benefits that last to this day like speaking at all of Russells live events! So in this episode, I dive into more examples that will help you create connections that will change your life!
