As the Managing Member of Bronson Equity, Bronson is a general partner in 2500 multifamily units worth over $250M. Bronson is the host of The Mailbox Money Show where he breaks down the investor mindset and has personally raised over $45M for real estate and his private equity deals. Bronson is the author of the best selling book, Fire Yourself; Replace Your Working Income with Passive Income in 3 Years or Less, and is a regular contributor to YouTube and his blog. Bronson is a regular keynote speaker and leads The Wealth Forum, an exclusive mastermind for affluent passive investors, providing unmatched investment opportunities within a growth-oriented community.  Bronson is a frequent guest on podcasts like the Best Ever Show with Joe Fairless and was a speaker at the large Limitless Conference with Ken McElroy.
