In this episode, I break down how I acquired over $5.1 million worth of storage facilities in just 17 months—with zero capital out of pocket. The secret?

I walk you through three real-world case studies that showcase how I used a mix of SBA loans, seller financing, private lenders, and equity partners to close big deals. I also share exactly how I positioned these opportunities, structured the funding, and even got paid $250K to close on one of the facilities. This episode isn't theory—it's a blueprint for how you can get into storage without waiting on savings or perfect conditions. You'll Learn How To: Buy storage facilities using SBA loans, seller financing, and private lenders Structure deals where everyone wins—including you, the seller, and your partners Find hidden equity and fund your deals without your own cash Build and nurture relationships that unlock funding when deals arise Overcome the "I need money to invest" mindset that keeps most people stuck What You'll Learn in This Episode: [0:00] The biggest myth in storage investing—and why it's holding you back [2:55] Case Study #1: How I used SBA and an equity partner to buy a $1.59M facility [5:22] The step-by-step on securing 85% financing and raising the rest [7:43] Case Study #2: Seller financing 90% on a $2.1M deal—and how we filled the gap [10:01] Structuring private money for renovations and deal entry [12:19] Why seller financing works so well in storage—and how to pitch it [14:42] Case Study #3: How I got paid $250K to buy a storage facility with built-in equity [17:04] Creative funding options that most investors overlook [18:30] The mindset shift that unlocks capital—and how to build lender-ready relationships Who This Episode Is For: Beginners who think storage is out of reach due to lack of capital Aspiring investors who want real, step-by-step strategies that work Experienced real estate pros exploring how to scale with storage Action takers ready to find and fund their first facility Why You Should Listen: Money is not your problem—lack of belief and strategy is.

Did you know aspiring entrepreneurs secretly LOVE to do nothing?On the one hand, Aspiring Entrepreneurs want lifestyle freedom and to be able to do what we want. We want to work a short productive, time so we don't have to work anymore.But on the other hand if you've ever felt yourself getting oddly comfortable delaying your dreams, then you're already familiar with the seduction of inaction. And it's a seduction we really don't want to cultivate. Too many aspiring entrepreneurs lean back when the world is in chaos They imagine the future collapsing in on itself in ways that conveniently justify why they simply cannot move forward today.In this episode, Case discusses how external chaos can become the perfect hiding place for internal hesitation, and the importance of understanding the psychology of entrepreneurial inaction so you can move out of it.

From utero and into infancy, babies recognize their mother as being essentially one with them. So, being placed in their father's arms is in fact their first introduction to the "other," the outside world. The father will continue this crucial role as mediator and representative to the outside world throughout a boy's childhood. With decades of experience and dozens of personal anecdotes, Upper School Head Michael Moynihan addressed the 2025 Fatherhood Conference to share how a father's parenting outlook now will shape his son's vocational and professional readiness to enter the outside world as an adult.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Mark Mascarenhas. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to educate listeners—especially entrepreneurs, small business owners, and aspiring millionaires—on financial planning, wealth management, and risk mitigation strategies. It emphasizes the importance of discipline, clarity, and professional guidance in achieving financial success and sustaining wealth across generations. Key Takeaways Financial Planning is Foundational A written financial plan is the first step before any investment portfolio is built. Success is defined individually—financial, health, or lifestyle goals. Diversification & Risk Management Digital assets like Bitcoin should only make up 2–3% of a portfolio for high-net-worth clients with high risk tolerance. Fear and greed drive markets; advisors help clients maintain discipline. Long-Term Care & Insurance Planning for long-term care is essential, typically starting in your 50s. Term life insurance early locks in health; whole life policies provide stability and living benefits. Tax Strategy Use tax-loss harvesting, asset location strategies, and estate planning to minimize tax burdens. Estate planning focuses on transferring wealth tax-efficiently to future generations. Millionaire Mindset Millionaires are clear, disciplined, optimistic, and collaborative. 74% of millionaires work with financial advisors vs. 34% of the general population. Power of Compounding Compounding interest is the cornerstone of wealth accumulation—requires patience and discipline. Avoid lifestyle creep and impulsive spending, especially for younger millionaires and influencers. Fiduciary Responsibility Advisors act in the client’s best interest; success is mutual. Trust and transparency are critical in client-advisor relationships. Notable Quotes On Risk & Bitcoin:“You could potentially double your money, but you could also potentially lose 70% of it.” On Financial Planning:“Every dollar needs a job description.” On Millionaire Mindset:“Successful people view us as CFOs—they’re the CEOs.” On Compounding:“If you could win 72% of the time, would you play that game? Yes. That’s the stock market.” On Retirement Success:“Living the same or better lifestyle in retirement than you do today while working.” On Fiduciary Role:“We make more money when the client makes more money.” #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Aspiring to be the “N+1 of Yiddish studies, the journal is completely online, and contains sections on pedagogy and translation, as well as a blog, and has remained accessible to readers outside of the academy. Our guests, Jessica Kirzane, Saul Noam Zaritt, Sarah Zarrow, and Dalia Wolfson, tell us about the skills and knowledge they acquired about things ranging from fundraising and the financial side of a journal, to managing others and cultivating a collaborative and supportive working environment.
