5. Pullout Quotes:
"My whole mission in life is to help as many people as I can solve not just their money problems, but also their time problems. Because once that passive income exceeds their fixed expenses, then they're working because they want to, not because they have to."
"The biggest mistake people make is they abdicate versus delegate. So they think, 'Oh, I'm going to do passive income. It's not going to be that hard.' No, it's hard. Everything we're doing is hard. It's a simple model, but it ain't easy."
"We're buying this asset at 25-30 cents on the dollar, and then we're flipping it. We're making on average 700 to 1200 percent return on investment."
"I think 80 percent of business is mental, 20 percent is how to."
"When my name's the Land Geek, you go all in on AI. We are so geeky over here."
