    862: From Sleeping on a Dirt Floor to Making $80K/Month (in 2 Years!) | ENCORE EPISODE
    Happy holidays, BiggerPockets listeners. You've all been good this year, so instead of a lump of coal, you're getting a special episode delivered on the most merry day of the year. We'll be sharing Yamundow Camara's unbelievable journey from dirt-poor poverty to INCREDIBLE passive income, even against all odds. If you're unsatisfied with your holiday gifts this season, listen to this episode—it may change your ENTIRE outlook on life and give you something to be extra grateful for today!  ______ How do you go from absolute poverty to passive income in a short amount of time? What if you were raised on the other side of the world, where even a basic education had to be fought for, and every opportunity was a constant struggle? This is the real story of Yamundow Camara, who went from sleeping on a dirt floor in a small village of Gambia to making a million dollars per year thanks to real estate. Yamundow grew up in an environment foreign to many of us. When her parents passed away in her youth, she was forced to live with relatives that treated her as a nuisance, not someone worth nurturing. She slept on the floor of her family’s home and was sometimes lucky enough to have a cardboard box as a mattress. She was set to be wed in her early teenage years, but thanks to her drive, determination, and pleading of her aunts, Yamundow was given a chance to go to high school and college and later immigrate to the US. From there, Yamundow put success as her sole focus. She not only academically overachieved, but was able to do an INCREDIBLE amount of investing with almost no money, no credit score, and no experience in the industry. She now sits on over thirty rental units, with a monthly income that rivals most Americans’ yearly salaries. Yamundow has one of the most incredible stories we’ve ever shared on the podcast, and you’ll have to tune in to hear her unimaginable path to success. In This Episode We Cover: How Yamundow went from complete poverty to making $80,000 in cash flow a month  Putting education first and the true value of hard work and perseverance  Investing with NO credit score and VERY little money and how to find banks that will lend to you Working two jobs and why increasing your income is ESSENTIAL to building wealth  Out-of-state real estate investing and what to do when your local market is too expensive  How to find (and keep) quality contractors, property managers, and other team members  Using the BiggerPockets Rental Property Calculators to make sure a deal is worth doing  And So Much More!

    Victory in Suffering - With David Goggins

    Victory in Suffering - With David Goggins
    What does the TOUGHEST MAN ALIVE have to say about suffering?   You have been asking to see David and me together, and that day has finally arrived! This interview is intense and we dig very deep into a variety of topics. It’s even better than you probably can imagine! (Very strong and adult language warning!) David Goggins, author of best-selling book Can't Hurt Me - is the only member of the U.S. Armed forces to complete Seal Training (including 3 hell weeks), the U.S. Army Ranger School and Air Force Tactical Air Controller Training. He is the EPITOME of pushing the limits! There wasn’t just one breakthrough that course-corrected Goggins’s life forever, but in this episode, we take a deep dive into the accumulation of moments that ended up cultivating the mindset needed to become the toughest man alive! Accountability is everything. What are you telling yourself in the mirror every day? Are you living up to your full potential? Quitting is a choice. Taking the path of least resistance is a choice. But you can never lie to yourself, you always know when you aren’t being the person you know you can be and there’s only ONE thing that’s getting in between you and the YOU that you know you can be… MINDSET! This episode will teach you how to go down into the dungeon and fight the war with yourself. You’ll learn how to make it all the way to the finish line even when you feel as if you can’t go any further. It’s time to close the gap between just being “inspired” to actually ACCOMPLISHING your biggest dreams. Goggins reveals how you can use your suffering as a catalyst instead of an excuse to stop! What if all of your sufferings were a clear sign of you becoming stronger because you are forcing yourself to endure what you thought you never could? This interview will CHANGE the way you look at suffering, give it a listen. I know it’s going to pump you up, just like it pumped me up!   Learn more about your ad choices.
