01/10/23 • 36 min
LISTEN FOR THIS
- Sam bought a house, sold it for a profit and has been exploring investments outside of the stock market ever since.
- The challenge with investing only in single family homes is they aren't scalable, and if one thing goes wrong you can blow the profits for the entire year.
- The pandemic caused the outdoor hospitality space to explode which led to an increase in the RV resort market. Sam has currently been focusing on this real estate investment opportunity and highlights all the ways RV resorts can be profitable for investors.
- Sam would like to be able to serve every demographic and every economic cycle in some meaningful way that produces revenue. Among other things, this has led to successful endeavors in laundry services and the fitness industry.
“My new thing is that health is wealth. If you don't have health you don't have wealth.”
“I'm a cash flow investor. I want to buy something today that produces an income consistently for the foreseeable future.”
