Join Darius and David as they map out the unusual path of an entrepreneur, and discuss why money should be more of a means to a goal rather than a goal in and of itself.
In this episode, David and I talked about:
- How growing up in Europe gave David an appreciation for the US, and how he ended up working in real estate almost by accident
- What it means to ‘pivot’ as an entrepreneur
- The importance of investing in passive income vehicles.
- And other topics…
