How are the kids?

Mine keep busy with the usual stuff; kickboxing, swim lessons, summer camp, and Math and English homework.

Is it normal to have homework during the summer?  No idea, but did you know investment in education, specifically during the summer, is one of the secrets of the rich? 

Kids who continue their education through the summer will hit the ground running when school starts in September.

Naturally, if one is good at something they will take further interest in that subject or sport.  

For example, if your kid is the best hockey player and leads the team in scoring, they will likely enjoy the sport. 

No different if your kid tests among the highest in school, there’s a greater chance the child will enjoy education.

None of this is perfect; however, I’m just playing the odds, and if nothing else, my kids know that hard work is expected 7 days of the week. 

So if they want a day off, they can finish their homework early.😃

Funny thing, our kids get up in the morning before we do… After much argument and cajoling, they now do their homework first thing in the morning. 

This is when their energy is highest vs. at the end of the day when they’re exhausted from all the summer fun they’re having.

It wasn’t easy as we’ve had lots of arguments with the kids and supervision on our part, plus marking their homework (I don’t know how teachers do it to mark so much volume).

Hopefully, learning these habits will be worth it. 

Speaking of learning, we are offering lots of opportunities to learn. 

My kid cousin Chubby is coming on the show next week to record a podcast as he’s over the moon, having nearly doubled his investment in 18 months thanks to Stock Hacking. 

He’s a professional musician, by the way, in case there’s a voice in your head saying you can’t do this too.😊

Or if you want to learn you better cash flow than real estate without tenants and toilets, well, I had a client tell me this week they’re retiring their spouse thanks to her stock hacking returns.

Friend of the show, the Fruitful Investor Mat Piche, will soon share how he loves the passive cash flow via Stock Hacking.

Past results, of course, don’t predict the future, BUT…

If you’re at least curious about what you’re missing, tune in to a completely free demonstration by simply going to www.stockhackeracademy.ca. 

There will also be an option to sign up for a future free demo. If you’re already on my email list, you’ll see the registration link in our list of upcoming events.

With covid restrictions lifting, we will be hosting demonstrations live and in-person in our offices in Oakville, Ontario, following provincial guidelines while live streaming for those of you who live a wee further away.

I’m personally fully vaccinated for a week now, and my 2nd shot was three weeks ago. It will be so good to see and help people in person again.

Speaking of folks whose lives have been changed by Stock Hacking, we have Joel Arndt today. 

This episode is a re-release of last year’s #1 downloaded episode recorded in October 2020.

How To Cash Flow $400 Per Month With $10,000 to Invest With Joel Arndt

Joel is a young, single dad from North Bay. 

He’s an Ontario millennial who, like many, wanted to get into real estate, but the capital required to invest in a house can be steep for those without help from parents and other relatives.

But with his newly learnt skill of stock hacking, he’s been able to cash flow 30% over 12 months using strategies learnt from attending Stock Hacker Academy with a $10,000 investment.

For those wondering, Joel’s formal education is in religion as he attended college to become a preacher of Christianity. 

He also has no formal finance education, just a willingness to learn.

Of course, past results do not predict the future, but in my opinion, this is the future of side hustles for cash flow without tenants and toilets and diversification away from real estate.

Enjoy the show 😉

We’re hiring!

Welcome, Wealth Hackers!

Happy Belated Fathers Day to all the great fathers out there and the mothers pulling double duty; I don’t know how you do it.

A quick word on children and making the world a better place, here’s a quote from Saifedeine Ammous’ book, “The Bitcoin Standard”:

“A society in which individuals bequeath their children more than what they received from their parents is a civilized society;

It is a place where life is improving, and people live with a purpose of making the next generation’s lives better” ~ Saifedean Ammous.

That’s pretty cool, eh?

That’s what great about you… You’re here investing in yourself to get educated, get inspired to invest in real estate, stock hacking, whole life insurance, new businesses to get ahead in life and provide better futures for your families.

For many of the rich, the more you make, the more you give. Warren Buffet just announced a $4.1 billion donation of Berkshire Hathaway shares to charity.

Note, he’d rather donate the money than let it go to the government via tax because, in my experience, a well-operated charity with low overhead costs is infinitely more effective than the government.

But first things first, you have to be rich with assets to have the option to choose where your money goes.

Cherry and I plan to leave eight figures to the Hamilton Basket Brigade, the charity we operate with next to no overhead costs as almost everything is donated and no one is on a payroll. 

The eight figures of capital will form a charitable foundation meaning the capital is not spent but rather invested. The proceeds from the investing, specifically stock hacking, will provide the operating budget for the charity.

The Hamilton Basket Brigade will then spend the budget on clothing, shoes, backpacks, food, whatever the children of Hamilton need. That will be our contribution to the next generation and all future generations.

We will also teach our kids to be grateful for all they have and the importance of giving to the less fortunate. Hopefully, they will go on to grow the charity and continue to improve society for future generations. 

That is our mission, and if it’s not them, it will be someone else because it must be done. We can’t rely on the government or even other charities; the WE Charity scandal should be enough to make anyone skeptical.

As the reopening of Canada and Ontario continues, we plan to run events in person again once we are legally able to. 

Cherry and I thankfully have both our covid shots.

Right now, I’m fully vaccinated and grateful. Not gonna lie, I cried a bit, maybe a lot after my 2nd shot. It’s such a relief knowing my personal pandemic is over, and I’m not at risk to our clients, our staff, my family, etc…

I have the same vaccines in me as the Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel: AstraZeneca and Moderna. If it’s good enough for the leader of the fourth largest economy in the world and largest in the European Union, it’s good enough for me.

I took the first shots available to me at the shortest interval possible of exactly eight weeks. I have no interest in being hospitalized by whatever variants are coming into our country knowing our borders are pretty open.

My friend’s mom was even on a plane from Mexico full of folks connecting from their country of origin which has banned direct flights to Canada because that country is where one of the worst variants was discovered that crushed their medical system.

All the adults in my family have double shots now, and I can’t wait to host my niece for a sleepover party this weekend.

The kids are all beyond excited, and it will be fun to entertain the family at what I call “A cottage experience,” which is our home only 40 mins from the city.  

Life is getting back to normal, and I can’t wait to enjoy a normal summer. I hope the same for all of you out there as well, a safe and enjoyable summer!

The Mothers of Real Estate (M.O.R.E.) With Monika, Gillian and Rachel

On to this week’s show!!

Fresh off the golf course from a golf lesson, we have The Mothers of Real Estate. 

If you are watching on our Truth About Real Estate Investing YouTube channel, please pardon our attires as these moms are busy having ten kids in total between the three of them and running real estate empires.

We came directly from golf to record this episode, so we’re dressed casually, lol.

Gillian Irving shouldn’t need any introduction. She’s returning now for the third time on the show as a successful student rentals investor, cryptocurrency investor, small business owner and mom to four kids.

Monika Jazyk prefers buy and hold and, more recently, passively investing her capital into storage and industrial warehousing to be less hands-on and more time at home to be with her four kids.

Rachel Oliver has also been on the show before, and we mastermind together. She and her husband Neil Oliver own the largest rent to own business in Canada with a 90% successful buyout rate by the tenants for a truly win-win-win business model for her, her investor partners, and the tenant.

We discuss if now is the right time to buy real estate, what their parents taught them about money, if there are barriers to mothers investing and what they are teaching their kids about investing and life.

Please enjoy the show as it was a fun one to record 🙂

We’re hiring!

Greetings, my fellow Wealth Hackers!!

Hope your week’s off to a good start. I know mine is.

My golf game is improving :). Last week I trimmed 16 and 18 strokes off previous rounds of golf at respective golf courses!!

Tracking results and using consistent rules of play make tracking more effective, and there is an old saying in business: What gets measured gets done.

So whatever you deem important in life, you should check on it at regular intervals: Eg. how many times you spend time with the kids each week, date nights, net worth, monthly cash flow, vacation weeks etc, are all important metrics to the wealth hacker.

On one evening after dinner, I took the kids for an evening stroll around the pond behind the house, and we made it our thing to see what wildlife we could find.  

This spring so far with the kids, we’ve found a pair of beavers, frogs, and more recently, baby geese and ducklings, a turtle and this week, a nesting snapping turtle laying eggs!!

I don’t know about you, but this is the first time I’ve witnessed a turtle laying eggs less than 200 yards from my house nonetheless. 

Anyways, she laid around 30 eggs next to a walking path. The next morning, the kids and I installed two orange cones next to the nest to protect the eggs, so no one steps on the nest.

I used long golf tees to pin down the cones so they don’t blow away and ordered some reflective driveway markers for a longer term solution, after googling and finding out the baby turtles need 60 days to incubate. 

I also scolded a lady for getting too close to the nesting mom.  She got within two feet to get a better look.  The turtle mom tucked her head into her shell, which turtles do when they feel threatened.

I like doing this with the kids, enjoying the outdoors, teaching them about wildlife, and just as importantly, respecting living things.  Except for mosquitos, I’m nobody’s food source, lol.

As if the turtle sighting wasn’t exciting enough, my friend and client Kaush Nanubhai texted me that we could book our second covid shot, and I did.

The big day is July 14th, and I couldn’t be more excited about putting the Coronavirus behind me.

As someone who enjoys doing research, reading charts, etc., the most recent stats out of the UK in how new covid case to hospitalization rates are dropping, even as the fourth wave begins thanks to the Delta variant, I can tell vaccinations work.

The Delta variant is the one that ravaged India, so no thank you for my family and me.

As for me, I won’t hide at home. My kids will go back to school in person this fall. 

But, knowing our borders are open and how many have avoided or paid the fine to skip the quarantine hotel, variants will continue to come into Canada, so my choice is for Cherry and me to protect ourselves.

Thank goodness science will protect us from bad government, but thank you, government, for the free vaccine 😛

I almost forgot, I also gave a 30-minute presentation to 60 grade 8 students on investing as part of the financial literacy segment of their math class hosted by my award-winning teacher friend Ms. Horst. 

She wins awards every year for being leading edge for her use of technology in the classroom.  For example, school projects are submitted online as (private) blog posts using Google Chromebooks she convinced the school board to invest in.

The world needs more teachers like Ms. Horst.

Anyways, after getting the OK to be unfiltered about all the money printing going on, stuff not covered in the mainstream media, I think I did alright.

I hear some students took as many as six pages of notes, and one student even reached out asking if I would be their mentor.

As always, it is my honour to give back to the community what I have learnt, so if you’re an educator out there, grade eight and above, I’d be happy to present to your students too.  Just ask.

I know I wish I’d known this stuff sooner… As I told the students, my net worth would be 4-5 times higher than it is now if I’d started my journey at their age.

How To Invest in Laneway Housing With Lanescape.ca

On to this week’s show!!

We have Architects and innovators of laneway housing, Ryan Fernandes and Craig Race from lanescape.ca.

Young Ryan reached out via my website to let me know he’s been a long time listener, more recently, an investor.

The progressive Toronto government makes laneway housing attractive investments; hence we have Ryan and Craig here on today’s show to share how the investment works.

Ryan and Craig have 50 laneway houses at various stages under their belt, and they’re here to share hard and soft costs, rents, tenant profiles, and where to find such opportunities.

Yay! Things are opening up!

Vaccination rates are climbing, and over 60% of adults in Ontario have had their first shot. So at least that part is on pace to allow for Step 1 of 3 – the reopening of the economy and normal life.

I saw BC’s roadmap has September 7th as the final step for reopening, so the end of the pandemic has never been so visible.

Also reopening for us is date night. LOL.

Cherry and I, many times, had committed to a once per week date night… But the most recent lockdown gave us an excuse not to continue that tradition. But we’re back on track… this week at least, as we spent Victoria Day evening together playing golf. 

We had a great day enjoying the outdoors with great weather, and she beat me again!  

Even though I can hit the ball a lot farther than Cherry, there is little to negative benefit of hitting a ball further out of bounds or into a pond.  

This is only my second year playing golf, so I’ll endeavour to improve with planned weekly lessons plus golfing once or twice per week.  

The summer is looking promising!!

To me, it’s always fun to challenge yourself outside of business and investing and learn a new skill. 

Observing how to learn a new skill helps us share and educate others on how to invest, whether in real estate, stock hacking, or whole life insurance… which is the subject of today’s episode!

Investing in Insurance To Buy More Real Estate With Jayson Lowe

Today we have my friend Jayson Lowe of Ascendant Financial, who is kind enough to provide Cherry and me whole life insurance.

If you never heard of whole life insurance and how it fits into the Infinite Banking Concept, that’s ok.

Like learning how to invest in real estate, it wasn’t anyone’s job to teach you. For me, I only got interested when several of my wealthy real estate investor friends shared how whole life insurance was their path to more mortgages. 

There is a right and wrong way to invest. I know quite a few who did it wrong, so I’m glad to have Jayson, a real estate investor and private lender, explain this strategy in detail.

Enjoy the show!

Greetings, Wealth Hackers!

I hear the lockdown in Ontario has been extended by two weeks.

But, great news because the government announced that outdoor recreational activities like golf and tennis courts would be allowed to re-open over the weekend.

Life is slowly getting back to pre-covid normal 😊

Personally, I can’t wait to go golfing again plus I already had my first AstraZeneca shot three weeks ago.

I want to thank the folks sharing their experience of actually having the virus, fever, aches, pain, headaches, hospitalization for two weeks, continued issues months after recovering from the initial severe symptoms.

I have no regrets about taking the AZ shot as I know I’ll never have to experience these severe symptoms, let alone be responsible for passing it onto someone else.

In my line of work, I still need to meet with clients.  One lives with his elderly parents; another just had a baby six months ago.  I’d be very upset if I were the one to ever cause them hardship.

Some may disagree with me, and that’s cool. No one agrees on everything with everyone. My kids don’t even agree with me on who their favourite parent is. 😀

Here’s another example… Some took the last 12 months off during the pandemic.  No doubt, life, online school for the kids, health and work all got harder. 

I recall even seeing Facebook posts that one doesn’t need to learn a new skill or side hustle while we are on lockdown.

In my experience, the path to success is not letting things happen to you; it’s making things happen.

As we approach the end of the pandemic, and it will end… places like Israel, several US States, the UK, a mixture of places that either locked down or have high vaccination rates or both have limited restrictions within their borders. 

We’re not that much further away here in Canada but imagine this… Imagine a newspaper, a newspaper all about YOU. 

On the day the pandemic is over, you open the door to your house, the newspaper has been delivered and is waiting for you on your front step.

You open the paper and look at the front page. What does the headline say? 

Does it say you logged 10,000 hours on Netflix, or does it say you came out of the pandemic as your best you?

For all you real estate investors, you’re likely the wealthiest you’ve ever been. No, it hasn’t been easy; I’m there with you. I’ve never had so much vacancy in my student rentals, but all rents have been paid on our regular rentals. 

Even for stock folks, several markets are at or near all-time highs.

On the personal side, I got to spend a lot of quality time with Cherry and the kids.

Just last night on our family after dinner walk, we came across a beaver chewing on a branch.  I’ve only ever seen one other beaver in the wild, so to me, this moment was precious. 

Thanks to my Peloton bike, I’m in great shape between virtual spin classes and strength training. 

Yeah, my golf game stinks not being able to play as it’s too dangerous in covid times, but one day…

Personally, I hope your newspaper headline reads you smashed it!

Totally ok if you needed a couple weeks or months to acclimate to this new environment, but then you went on and crushed it!

If your investing hasn’t been crushing, then hopefully, you’ll connect with us at our multitude of events. We offer free training, free tours, networking events.

If you’re a licensed Realtor on the west side of the GTA, we are hiring full-time agents to work with our real estate investor clients investing in KWC, Hamilton, Niagara Region, etc. 

Go to www.infinitywealth.ca and reach out. If you already receive our email newsletter, reach out if you’re interested.

FYI, our clients are crushing it. 

If you follow the real estate market at all, you’ll know what I’m talking about.

With the federal government committing over a billion dollars to fund the light rail transit system in Hamilton, prices will find another level. 

Hopefully, you’ll let us help you in your journey to a successful side hustle.

The Path To $1M Per Year with Corrie George

This week, we have my controversial friend Corrie George Elieff.

Just a heads up, Corrie has invested in real estate, done a flip and plans to invest in apartment buildings, but that’s not why he’s here today, so we barely talk about real estate.

Why Corrie is here is because the truth about real estate is… The majority of real estate investors have great paying day jobs and that’s how they can convince the bank to lend them hundreds of thousands of dollars. 

But first, having a six-figure income helps, and Corrie has a track record of developing those who are young at heart into successful sales professionals.

Corrie is here and to share his crazy ass story of building his $8 million businesses by the time he was 30 years old. How he met his idol at 26, completely blew it and was laughed at Grant Cardone’s staff meeting of 50 people, heavy drug use as a teenager, quitting cold turkey to move out west and live in a warehouse for eight months…

Almost dying from organ failure, getting stem cells from Columbia, losing $1 million last year, how he’s bouncing back in 2021 and most importantly, how his company competes with post-secondary schools for higher education, giving young people quality sales training.

My apologies in advance if you’re offended by anything Corrie says; if you offend easily, please don’t listen. 

Corrie and I don’t agree on everything, and we don’t have to because, in the end, it’s the results that matter and I’d like to say we both help people.

Please enjoy the show!

UPCOMING EVENTS

BEFORE YOU GO…

If you’re interested in being a successful real estate investor like those who have been featured on this podcast and our hundreds of successful clients please let us know.

It is our honour to give back and educate others on how we build cash flowing real estate portfolios using all the best practices shared on this podcast, from the lessons of our hundreds of clients and of course our own experience in owning investment real estate.

If you didn’t know already, we pride ourselves on being the best of the best real estate coaches, having the best property managers, contractors, handy people, cleaners, lawyers, accountants, everyone you need on your power team and we’re happy to share them with our clients to ensure your success. 

New investor or seasoned veteran investor, we can help anyone by providing our award winning coaching services and this isn’t all talk.

We have been awarded Realtor of the Year to Investors in 2015 by the Real Estate Investment Network, 2016 by the Canadian Real Estate Wealth Magazine and again in 2017 because no one told the judges no one is supposed to win the award twice but on merit, our peers deemed us as the best.  In 2018, we again won the same award by the Real Estate Investment Network.

Hopefully being the most decorated team of Realtors in Ontario will make you consider us for your first or next real estate investment.  Even if you don’t invest in our areas, there’s a good chance I know who would be ideal for you. 

I’ve been around for a while, some Realtors are talented at servicing investors there are many with great ethics.  The intersection of the two, talent and ethics is limited to a handful in each city or town.

Only work with the best is what my father always taught me.  If you’re interested, drop us an email at iwin@infinitywealth.ca.

I hope to meet you at one of our meetups soon.

Again that’s iwin@infinitywealth.ca
