RAD Diversified CEO Dutch Mendenhall returns to the show (last appeared on ILAB 178 & 194) to give us an update on real estate and so much more! Dutch has previously told us about past visionary moves that he was able to capitalize on and this appearance is no different! Find out how he was able to profit from the Russian-Ukrainian War, why he moved out of California, how he is able to purchase more homes in this economic landscape & more. Plus, he addresses concerns about RAD Diversified brought by our listeners who have previously invested. About Dutch Mendenhall: Dutch Mendenhall is a husband, father, American patriot, and gifted visionary. He leads by example and doesn't believe in quitting. His leadership across six real estate investment funds combines the science of advanced analytics with new-age Artificial Intelligence, resulting in formidable industry-leading performance. In 2007, Dutch turned his strengths from a career coaching baseball toward consulting in the real estate industry. He became a highly sought-after thought leader in developing real estate education and training. Dutch helped thousands of investors earn millions of dollars in real estate revenue. Yet, he knew that a greater purpose still lay ahead. Then, in 2015, Dutch had a vision for what would become RAD Diversified. An exclusive way for his students to partner with him on real estate investments. He felt the calling to help others secure a future for themselves and their families through the power of real estate done right and done together. So, Dutch began building the rockstar team and groundbreaking systems needed to accomplish this vision. He partnered with real estate legend Amy Vaughn. Brought on high achievers to design RAD Diversified in a way that would scale up as the vision grew. Today, the RAD Diversified team includes more than 150 people and a portfolio of well over $100 million in diversified real estate assets. His ethos is best summed up as People First. Dutch is always working for his people: investors, the team of people that drive the funds, vendors, contractors, tenants, and many more. The constant is "Creating Consistent Goodwill for the Business." Dutch does not believe in comparison but sets his sights on his race against himself.

After nearly a year of doing these Podcasts, about propaganda, Ukraine, and Russian aggression, I've found that sometimes the best insights come from people with first hand experience of the conflict. Insights that you just can't find in books or articles, and which can help to make sense of the academic literature that is being written about the conflict. In this spirit, we'll be featuring more first-hand witnesses to the conflict, and those that have formed relationships with the country before the invasion. I'd like to welcome Johnny FD to the channel – someone with extensive experience of Ukraine and many of the big personalities that are reporting on the war and fighting it – Johnny is an accomplished YouTuber, traveller, Digital nomad, and all-round humane and witty content creator.
Johnny and Derek kick off the episode with New Year's updates, including a scary moment for Johnny in Kyiv. Then Johnny interviews "The Real Asset Investor" Dave Zook on his various funds and their structures for self-storage, car washes & ATMs. Dave lays out how to invest, who can invest and how to get your federal tax rate into the single digits! Then Johnny & Derek follow up on their thoughts into Dave's investing philosophy and provide an exciting new feature for ILAB Patreons. About Dave Zook: Dave is a successful Business owner, Syndicator and an Investment and Tax Strategist. Dave and his team at The Real Asset Investor have placed more than $800M across various asset classes which offer Cash Flow, Tax Impact and Equity Growth for investors.

Dave was an early investor in Bitcoin and Digital Assets, and he holds an advisory role at Off the Chain Capital, one of the top performing funds in the world for the last 5 years.

The Able Apes wake up to a world at risk of war and ponder how we got here. Is the threat to global peace as serious as our mainstream media reports? Will inflation ever stop?

Then Johnny & Derek share their roommate stories, investing in Homeroom, and exploring creating your own co-living investment property. Johnny Wolff is the CEO and Founder of HomeRoom Coliving – one of the fastest growing coliving companies in the United States. After starting his career as a financial analyst in Silicon Valley (EA, SanDisk, Guidespark), he relocated to Austin, Texas to pursue real estate investing fulltime. His love for real estate investing and living with roommates motivated him to start HomeRoom in 2017, after an unusually terrible Craigslist roommate experience. In 2020, HomeRoom boasted 99% on-time rent payments, full occupancy, and zero evictions. Sales velocity for HomeRoom is up 300% in 2021 with hundreds of happy residents across 23 cities in 3 states. Powered by investor funds, HomeRoom recently expanded to Dallas and Austin, Texas.

It's a book called Happy Money by Elizabeth Dunn and Dr. Michael Norton. It's not about building wealth, it's about if you have a dollar what is the best thing you can do with it that will actually lead to more fulfillment and happiness, and it's all based on research. And The Simple Path to Wealth: Your Road Map to Financial Independence and a Rich, Free Life by JL Collins is the single-best primer I've read that matches my philosophy for how one would use the public markets to build wealth. It explains compounding interest on how we retire on passive income in more detail than I've ever read before. Another great book is The Psychology of Money: Timeless lessons on wealth, greed, and happiness by Morgan Housel, it's mental tricks about money that we can fall prey to or we can take advantage of. It's deeply-researched, wonderfully written.Did you enjoy this episode?

Johnny FD is a location independent entrepreneur who was born and raised in San Fransisco, California. Like many others, Johnny has followed the usual process which involves, going to college, get a degree, and get a good corporate job. Having done all of that, Johnny was unhappy and he desired more of what life has to offer, so in 2008 he quit his well paid corporate job and began traveling the world while working as a scuba instructor and fighting professionally in the sport of Muay Thai Kickboxing. In 2013 he started his first online business through publishing a book on Amazon Kindle. He then replaced his 9-5 income by starting a dropshipping store that he later sold for sixty thousand dollars, which he invested into growing passive income. Since then he has generated well over a million dollars in online business and now has fourteen different streams of passive income.

Since then he has generated well over a million dollars in online business and has sold three more stores. Johnny has been earning over six figures ($150,000 or more) each year while traveling the world and have visited over 50 countries. Now he spends his time traveling the world as a digital nomad, living off of and creating new streams of passive income, investing, and giving back by hosting the annual Nomad Summit conference.

In 2010, Johnny FD started documenting his experiences living in Thailand after being laid off from his job in California. Eventually, he started posting monthly income expense reports that detailed every source of his income and it was one of these reports that first led me to discover Johnny's blog. At that time, I found Johnny's story very inspiring because he was close to my age and didn't come from a wealthy background or have a huge amount of savings to start from. He was simply trying things out and seeing what worked and what didn't. Over the years, Johnny FD has become a major name in the digital nomad scene and has also built up a total of 14 different income streams. During this incredibly difficult time in the world when so many of us have lost our jobs, I thought it would be a fantastic opportunity to ask Johnny how he built up his income streams and for advice on how to do it when you're first starting out. From blogging to podcasting to online course creation, different ways to invest in the stock market, and planning for retirement, Johnny and I cover a lot of ground in this episode. For those of you wondering how to find more financial security in these uncertain times, you won't want to miss this episode!

Three more of our past podcast guests graciously shared some words of advice to help us cope and make the most out of the COVID-19 epidemic. Giacomo Arcaro from Ep113 Don’t Chase the Money Giacomo Arcaro is one of the most important European growth hackers, with more than 140,000 “crypto-followers” and has been featured in the Financial Times, Forbes, Wired, and the Los Angeles Times. He’s had 2-million-euro exits with two start-ups, CercaClienti.it and SocialAutomation.online, and is the founder of Black Marketing Guru. We need to understand that during the COVID-19 crisis, we are going to face a low touch economy where you have to consider a lot of factors. If you have a business based in a small area with a lot of people, you need to reconsider reinventing your business so that it remains standing if this crisis goes for a year or two. One way of reinventing your business, for example, is running it on social media platforms such as Instagram or Facebook Live. COVID-19 has not changed our lives; instead, it has anticipated the digital revolution. Johnny FD from Ep134 Stay on Track Johnny FD (Fighter-Divemaster) quit his job at corporate giant Honeywell in 2007 to move to Thailand, travel the world, and work as a professional scuba diver. He has since written two books: 12 Weeks in Thailand: The Good Life on the Cheap and Life Changes Quick (both on Amazon), started multiple six-figure online businesses, and since has been interviewed and featured in Forbes, Business Insider, Fast Company, Entrepreneur, and the BBC. If you don't get out of this quarantine with new skills, new knowledge, a side business or side hustle started, then you never lacked the time you lacked discipline. But if you were working hard and didn’t have enough time to rest and you really need to, take a break. Lay around, do nothing, and relax. But if you are only laying on your bed scrolling through your smartphone and just eating and complaining, you need to get out of bed and make some changes and money. You can start by treating your stay at home as the standard working days; the only difference is that you are not getting outside. Now is the time to do things that you usually don’t have time to do, for example, learning a foreign language, reading, learning a new skill, etc. There's going to be a lot of money to be made and a lot of money to be lost. Make your decisions wisely so that you’re on the money-making side. Nicolas Rabener from Ep55 Diversification: An Easy Way to Reduce Your Investing Risk Nicolas Rabener is the founder of FactorResearch, which provides quantitative solutions for factor investing. Previously he created Jackdaw Capital, an award-winning quantitative investment manager focused on equity market neutral strategies. Unlike the Global Financial Crisis in 2008, low volatility smart beta ETFs in the US have declined as much as the stock market and therefore failed to provide the desired downside protection. Tail risk strategies are currently attractive because some of them generated outsized returns in March when the stock markets crash. If you’re considering buying portfolio protection, it’s going to be very expensive because, just like insurance, portfolio protection is best purchased when it is not required.

Kristin Wilson and Johnny FD discuss why some digital nomads are coping better than brick-and-mortar businesses and traditional employees during the coronavirus quarantine, and how nomads are more mentally, emotionally, and financially resilient during these times. We discuss: Why daily life hasn't changed much for digital nomads Familiar with uncertainty and discomfort. (also just not having access to certain things) Minimalist lifestyle and low cost-of-living Focus on experiences over consumerism Multiple income streams Growth mindset over fixed mindset Personal identity not tied to a job or company Comfortable using remote collaboration tools Less familial and societal pressures at home Part of a global community At home everywhere in the world We also discuss why new digital nomads and digital "backpackers" are struggling more than experienced digital nomads and online entrepreneurs.

So instead we talk about some sensitive, never before heard issues that he has never been public about: his struggles growing up as an asian guy in America his identity and insecurity struggles what it's like dealing with his haters his biggest regret in life and then we end with some straight knowledge bombs that are seriously packed with value Please share, subscribe, and if you really like the show, please leave us a 5 star review!

I just had to have him on, his story literally inspired me so listen to that specific episode over and over again to just try and dissect everything and get myself motivated. It was truly an honour to have him onto the podcast and he shares his insight about his story a bit more, he goes into opening up to talk about how he retired his parents and it truly resonated with me a lot. I loved having him on because I want to show you guys, the listeners that once you get past the fears, doubts, and overcome all the obstacles you come out a changed person doing amazing things.
