This podcast with Greg Herlean will change your lifelong financial plans. Grab a pen and take notes!In his early 20's, Greg discovered he wanted a certain lifestyle. He had no money, but learned he could invest money from other people's Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA's) to make his flips. This is exactly what he did, successfully and repeatedly. He soon realized that most trust companies are lousy; so he created his own IRA company. He now uses 90% of his time to teach people how to best use IRA's, and the other 10% to play the real estate game for fun.Greg's company will teach you about the different kinds of IRA's (401(k), SEP, Roth, Simple, etc.) and examine your situation to see which options fit your aspirations. They are faster than any other IRA company, and truly honor the term “self-directed IRA.”Many (young) people think that IRA's are useless because the money can't be touched until the owner is nearly 60 years old, but this is a fallacy. There are many ways you can use your IRA now to increase your wealth, and the longer you wait to explore these options, the more opportunities you'll miss.

People say if you find the deals, the money will come. When you’re just starting out, though, finding the deals is the hardest part. What are some of the ways you can prove yourself to partners in those early phases? How can you can talk to your lenders to get better terms? What should you be cautious of as you build teams and partner up with other people? On this episode, I’m joined by Greg Herlean, who shares how he has built up from his first deal to where he is today. 3 Things We Learned The biggest team mistake investors make Choose partners and build your team wisely. If you have the same strengths and do the exact same thing, it’s not going to help the company. Create a team or referral network of individuals who are great at the things you’re not good at so you not only learn from them but also make the business stronger. How to be more wise with the terms on your money Pay attention to what you’re paying on money, if you’re borrowing money, you don’t necessarily have to pay huge rates. Ask your lender what they are looking for with that money. The terms they give you might actually be better than you expect. Because we’re so anxious to get money in the beginning, we end up giving it away, so ask for better terms before you just accept what you think they want. Navigating the haters As we all go through our journey, we are going to get haters and people who have something negative to say about us. You can either allow that to affect you and change your course of direction, or just use it as jet fuel. When we’re starting out, it’s so important to avoid being controlled by the anxiety around getting a deal. We have to be willing to take a step back sometimes in order to prove ourselves and build the key relationships. This will set us up for success as we build up. Confidence is one of the most powerful things we can have in our investing careers, and when we combine that with experience and knowledge of deals, we become unstoppable.
