When Vinney Tolman was 25 years old he took a supplement that got into his lungs and killed him in the bathroom of a Dairy Queen. The paramedics could not revive him. They pronounced him dead, filled out the paperwork, put him in a body bag, and zipped it up. Then a rookie medic on the crew broke protocol and got his heart started again. From the moment of pronounced death to the moment his heart came back was 47 minutes. He was brain dead for the next three days. And during those three days he was somewhere else entirely. ⠀ I have talked to a lot of people who have had near-death experiences and Vinney's stopped me. His guide over there turned out to be his own great-great grandfather, which he only figured out months later when he saw a photograph at a family reunion. He came back with 10 principles that he has been teaching for over 20 years and he has one of the clearest accounts of where our planet is heading that I have heard. We talk about all of it in this conversation. What actually happens when you die. Where our loved ones go and how they still interact with us. Do our pets have souls. The split that is happening on this earth right now. Why he says technology is coming for the place God should hold in us. If death has ever scared you, or if you have ever wondered whether the person you lost is still around you, sit with me and Vinney for this one.

He came to America with $7 in his pocket. Today: multi-billions in real estate acquisitions. And the #1 habit behind it all? GRATITUDE.
Can the right habits really carry you to 100 — and beyond?
What do you do when a lender sends you a legal notice, demands more renovation money, and your deal is on the edge? Vinney "Smile" Chopra did something most investors never think of — he got GRATEFUL.
On this episode of The Real Estate & More Show, host Michael Hatfield sits down with Vinney "Mr. Smile" Chopra — real estate syndicator, fund manager, and five-time Amazon bestselling author — to talk about his book Positivity Brings Profitability. Vinney arrived in America with $7 in his pocket and a suitcase. Today he's raised $239 million as a fund manager across hospitality, senior living, and multifamily real estate. Michael and Vinney dig into why Vinney believes positivity isn't just a "feel good" concept — it's a core business strategy that drives investor trust, team performance, and deal outcomes. Vinney also walks Michael through a 107-unit Knoxville, TN case study — a mismanaged property his team turned around, surviving a mortgage payment that jumped from $27K to $72K/month, locking in a 5.56% rate, and selling for $17.4M after buying it for $12.5M in just two and a half years. In this conversation with Michael Hatfield, Vinney covers: ✅ Going from selling Bibles and encyclopedias to managing a $1.3B portfolio ✅ Why he pivoted from multifamily into hospitality and senior living ("apartments on steroids") ✅ The goal-setting method that separates people who achieve goals from those who just write them down ✅ How positivity directly impacts investor relationships and deal-making ✅ Why humility and a "serving attitude" matter more than ego in syndication Timestamps: 00:00 Michael Hatfield introduces Vinney Chopra 01:00 Arriving in America with $7 03:00 Why Vinney wrote Positivity Brings Profitability 07:00 What positivity really means in business 10:00 Can positivity be learned? 13:00 Goal setting and achievement 17:00 Why relationships are everything 20:00 Handling market fluctuations and pivoting 23:00 Case study: 107-unit Knoxville turnaround 27:00 Responding to critics of "positivity" 28:00 Vinney's final advice for the audience ----

Whenever there's a big wall, there's always a window somewhere — you've just got to find it.
What separates investors who scale from those who stay stuck? In this episode of the Abundance Mindset Podcast (Abundance Thursdays), Vinney Chopra and co-host Gualter Amarelo break down one wealth-building principle that's behind every deal Vinney has ever closed: accept what can't be changed — then create an advantage. Vinney walks through the real numbers on his Columbus, Ohio hotel: bought for around $11M, undergoing a $25M renovation, converting from a Hilton into a full-service Marriott, and expanding from 195 doors to 230 keys — with a projected exit near $70M. You'll also hear how he turned 1,000 unused lockers into revenue-producing meeting rooms, refinanced his way out of a variable-rate apartment deal in Knoxville, and survived the COVID gut-punch when occupancy on a brand-new hotel fell from 87.5% to 25% overnight. If you're a real estate investor, capital raiser, or aspiring syndicator trying to build wealth in a high interest rate environment, this conversation is a masterclass in solution-focused thinking. As Vinney says: whenever there's a big wall, there's always a window somewhere — you've got to find the window. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – "There's Always a Window": The Mindset Behind Every Deal 00:35 – The Columbus Hotel: A $25M Renovation Into a Full-Service Marriott 01:20 – Accept What Can't Be Changed → 195 Doors Become 230 Keys 02:15 – Estimating a $70M Exit (+ Accredited Investor Disclaimer) 03:00 – What a 506(c) Offering Actually Means for You 03:40 – 1,000 Lockers Into Meeting Rooms: Finding Hidden Revenue 04:25 – The Knoxville Apartment & the Variable-Rate Problem 05:00 – Refinancing the Wall Into a Window 06:00 – Why a HIGH Interest Rate Market Works in Your Favor 07:50 – The Hilton-to-Marriott Flag Change & Marriott "War Rooms" 08:40 – Control the Controllables 09:10 – The Banker Call That Saved $60K Now + $60K Every Year 11:00 – The Exit Plan: Sell, Go Passive, Manage the Managers 13:50 – Hospitality Roars Back + the New Tampa Acquisition 15:00 – Finding an Operator Who Isn't Stretched Too Thin 16:00 – No Capital or No Experience?

Most people say they can't find the right mentor. The truth? They're not ready — and they're not qualifying. In this episode of the Abundance Mindset Podcast, Vinney Chopra and co-host Gualter break down Wealth Principle 30: learn to attract the right mentors. Vinney shares the full origin story — arriving in America with just $7, knocking on doors 13 hours a day selling Bibles and encyclopedias for the Southwestern Company, and how seven books became his first mentors. He tells the story of his 40-year mentor, billionaire Spencer Hayes, whose business card simply read "Salesperson." Then he gives you the practical framework: how to qualify a mentor, how to make yourself worthy of one, and why "if the man is right, the world is right." If you're building in real estate, raising capital, or just trying to get to the next level — this one's for you. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 — "When the student is ready, the mentor appears" 00:50 — Wealth Principle 30: attract the right mentors 01:20 — Inside the 9-year mastermind (4 PM PST Wednesdays) 01:50 — Arriving in America with $7 — a Hindu man selling Bibles 02:30 — The 7 books that became Vinney's first mentors (Peale, Rohn, Carnegie, Dyer, Kiyosaki) 03:00 — 80-hour weeks knocking on doors in Atlanta 04:00 — Closing the engineering career: "I'm a salesperson at heart" 04:30 — Spencer Hayes: the billionaire mentor and the Park Avenue penthouse 06:00 — The business card that just said "Salesperson" 06:40 — Vinney's 5 books (including Hospitality Investing Made Easy) 08:00 — How to actually qualify a mentor (do they have the track record?) 09:00 — Introspection: finding the need within 10:00 — "If the man is right, the world is right" — the puzzle story 12:00 — Being open and worthy enough to be mentored 13:00 — Don't give up + the Tony Robbins lesson 13:30 — Find the top mentors in your business and study their path 14:30 — Hospitality is the name of the game right now 15:00 — "Bring the seed, not your need"
WTF Just Happened?!: Afterlife Evidence, Paranormal + Spirituality without the Woo
Vincent (Vinney) Tolman died in 2003 in a Dairy Queen bathroom after taking an accidental overdose of a supplement. Clinically dead, he was bagged and transported to a medical examiner. A rookie medic broke protocol and resuscitated him. What makes his case compelling: while clinically dead, Vinney had verifiable experiences that challenge our understanding of consciousness and what happens when we die. While his body lay dead in a bathroom, Vinney's consciousness watched from outside his body. He observed paramedics attempting resuscitation, watched his body being bagged, saw the ambulance, and witnessed specific medical procedures including defibrillation shocks. He watched his arm being strapped down in the ICU. When he reconnected with his body, he could verify details he had no way of knowing while unconscious. He also had some remarkable and transformational experiences in a non physical dimension. Including some people and beings he met there, which later provided shocking evidence that something very real was going on. Vinney's case included observable elements that corroborate his account. He describes what he saw while dead, what was verifiable, and what this suggests about consciousness continuing after brain death. This is a documented case of someone who experienced verifiable events while clinically dead, providing evidence that consciousness may exist independently of brain function.

Before you can invest in private real estate syndications — you need to know exactly what the SEC says makes you an accredited investor. In this quick clip, Vinney Chopra breaks down the official SEC Regulation D accredited investor definition so you know exactly where you stand: ✅ $200,000 in personal income for the last 2 years (with the expectation of the same this year and forward) ✅ $300,000 combined household income with a spouse or significant other ✅ $1,000,000 net worth — NOT including your primary residence (equity in your home does NOT count) And here's the critical piece most people miss: in a 506(c) offering (like Vinney's hotel syndications), you don't just check a box — you must provide verifiable legal documentation from your CPA or attorney, or through a third-party verification service like Parallel Markets. Knowing this one definition could be the doorway to passive income, bonus depreciation, and 70% K-1 losses in 2026. For educational purposes only. Not financial or legal advice. Consult your CPA and attorney. ▶️ Watch the FULL Abundance Mindset episode here: https://youtu.be/Bk062H7POf4

He went from $180K for 14 units… to 7,500 multifamily units… to NOW closing 7 hotels in a single year with $40M of investor capital. In this short clip from Abundance Mindset, Vinney "Smile" Chopra breaks down:
AI isn't coming for real estate investing — it's already here, and the investors who adapt are pulling ahead fast. In this episode of The Vinney & Beau Show, Vinney Chopra and Beau Eckstein get real about how AI is reshaping the way they build, pitch, and scale their businesses — from creating investor presentations in minutes instead of days, to cutting through the noise of an AI-saturated world to find what's actually true.

Own Your Results. Own the Returns. Why the Smartest Accredited Investors Are Going All-In on Hotels. In this episode of Abundance Mindset, Vinney "Smile" Chopra joins co-host Gualter Amarelo for a raw, real, and revelation-packed conversation about what it truly means to OWN your results — in business, in investing, and in life. Vinney pulls back the curtain on his personal pivot from 7,500+ multifamily units to a laser focus on hospitality — and why he believes hotel rooms are apartment units on steroids. Here's why: unlike a 12-month lease, a hotel "lease" is signed every single night — with up to five different price points depending on supply, demand, and local events. When a big concert or conference hits your market, your nightly rate can 4X overnight. That's a level of dynamic cash flow multifamily simply cannot match. In this episode, you'll discover:
You're an accredited investor. You've got capital to deploy. But before you wire $100K, $250K, or $500K into a syndication — do you actually know what to look for? In this episode of The Vinney & Beau Show, Beau Eckstein asks Vinney Chopra — 4x Amazon bestselling author with $300M+ raised, 42 deals, 5,000+ units, and 500+ accredited investors — the questions every sophisticated LP wishes they had asked before their first wire transfer. A rare, candid behind-the-curtain conversation about how veteran syndicators actually structure deals, vet operators, manage K-1s, and protect investor capital.
Vinney's life philosophy in 30 seconds: once you've learned it, mastered it, and proven it — give it away in the simplest form possible, so others can crush it BETTER than you did.
He was dead for 90 minutes. What he saw will shatter everything you think you know! Doctors say this should have been impossible. Vincent “Vinney” Tolman wasn't just clinically dead - he was gone for somewhere between 45 minutes and an hour and a half, with no brain activity and no chance of returning without severe damage. Yet somehow, he came back - fully conscious, forever changed, and carrying a story that has left even medical professionals stunned. What happened during that time? According to Vinney, everything we think we know about life, death, and reality is only the beginning. After an accidental overdose in a restaurant bathroom, Vinney crossed over - and what he experienced on “the other side” goes far beyond a typical near death experience. He describes leaving his body and entering a state where he could hear the thoughts and feel the emotions of others, moving through a realm where time doesn't exist the way we understand it, and encountering a level of unconditional love so overwhelming it defies human language. In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, he shares the moment he met his spirit guide, learned how to raise his energetic frequency to travel, and underwent a profound life review, reliving not just his own actions, but feeling every ounce of pain and joy he had ever caused others. After being resuscitated and placed in a coma for 3 days, Vinney returned with 10 specific messages he says were given to him from “the other side”, including insights into: - Why we're really here on Earth - Hidden purpose behind suffering, conflict, & evil - Why free will is essential to existence - Truth about authenticity, love, & judgment - How tech & other negative influences shape our spiritual path - Why our value has nothing to do with what others think He also reveals why he believes Earth has existed far longer than we've been told, how it moves through energetic cycles, and why children seem more spiritually connected. But coming back wasn't peaceful. Vinney opens up about the dark psychological aftermath of returning to his body: waking up in a hospital, desperately wanting to go back "home", seeing what he believed were departed souls, and nearly losing himself trying to process it all. From being prescribed antipsychotics to a supernatural turning point that pushed him toward spiritual understanding instead, his journey didn't end when he came back - it only got more intense. Now, he shares how he connects with his spirit guide, the premonitions and guidance he receives, what he believes “Earth angels” really are, and how anyone can begin connecting with their own spiritual guidance. He even links his NDE to childhood trauma, explaining how dissociation may relate to the ability to leave the body and what that means for human consciousness. Vinney believes we are currently in a global “shedding phase”, and his mission is clear: to awaken as many people as possible. This isn't just a story about death. It's a story about why you're here…and what you're meant to remember.

Are you overwhelmed running deals, managing investors, and juggling life? You're not alone — and you're probably doing it wrong. In this episode of The Vinney & Beau Show, Vinney Chopra and Beau Eckstein get raw and real about what it actually takes to close big commercial real estate and hospitality deals when everything is pulling at you at once. From Vinney raising nearly $10M across three hotel deals back-to-back, to Beau breaking down why a $5M SBA loan is sometimes easier than a $250K one — this episode is packed with mindset shifts, business systems, and tax strategies that every high-net-worth investor and syndicator needs to hear.
You're not broke because you work too little. You're broke because you're solving the wrong size problems.

Steadfastness of Faith: The #1 Reason Real Estate Investors Quit Before the Breakthrough What separates investors who build lasting wealth from those who restart over and over again? One word: steadfastness. In this Abundance Thursdays episode, Vinney "Smile" Chopra and co-host Gualter Amarelo dive deep into Principle #27 from The Wealthy Gardener — and why unwavering faith in your underwriting, your operator, and your God-given vision is the most powerful wealth-building tool you'll ever use. In this episode, you'll discover:
You don't make money managing a property. You make it at the purchase.
You can have the best systems, the best CRM, the best team — but if you're not excited and motivated, none of it moves.

In this podcast episode, Guy talked with Vinney, a self-described lightworker, about his near-death experience and how it changed his life. Vinney recounted collapsing after taking an extremely concentrated muscle-recovery supplement, being pronounced dead, and then revived when a rookie medic felt a premonition and broke protocol to resuscitate him. He described an out-of-body perspective, a fearful realization during transfer to the hospital, a rapid life review, and meeting a guide named Drake who led him toward "home" by raising his love energy during a three-day coma. Vinney shared 10 principles he said he learned, including authenticity, Earth as a classroom not a courtroom, love as the strongest force, managing technology, releasing prejudice, and recognizing all creation as extensions of the creator. He said he returned after his brother's prayer, later found confirmation of his guide's identity through family history, and now taught and coached others through Living God's Light and his book The Light After Death. About Vinney: Vincent Todd "Vinney" Tolman was born in Arlington, Texas, and has since traveled around the world, living in both Cambodia and Thailand. He loves animals, meditating, and spending time in nature. His greatest priorities are his relationship with his Creator, his family, and the people he meets. He currently lives in Las Vegas, Nevada, with his wife, Andrea, and their two children. At the age of 25, Vincent Tolman was found dead in the bathroom of a small restaurant. He had been dead for over half an hour. He was later revived out of a bodybag, and he awoke 3 days later from a coma. He will share his beautiful experiences and what he learned about life while he was gone. Vinney's experience has gifted him with an increased spiritual awareness and a keen "spiritual ear" for advice and insight from God and the guides that God has assigned to assist us. He has also mastered valuable tools to help you create a powerful personal transformation. People typically seek out Vinney when they need to find solutions to life problems, or when they are ready to grow and expand their life in powerful ways.
