🏭 Vera was the youngest of 6 kids in a family without a father: her mother dreamed a life for Vera that doesn't involve working in a factory. 03:29
💼 Vera's mother saw entrepreneurship as misery, uncertainty, and fear, but Vera wanted to be her own boss: she started working at 15. 05:32
🚘 You're allowed to go into debt only for a house and a car: Vera leads a debt-free lifestyle. 10:13
🔵 Entrepreneurs fall in love with their idea so much that they forget to take the emotion out and think logically: Vera sold the restaurant right before Covid, bought a property she fell in love with, and then had to short-sell it. 12:26
💰 We mom-mode our businesses, so we forget to be tough: if you're going to buy property, you have to make a profit the day that you purchase it. 18:09
✅ Always look at the market you're buying in if you want to be a real estate investor. 21:03
💲 Vera owns homes, invests in a commercial real estate trust, invests with partners, and lends finances: money is energy - it goes out and comes back in, so spending well is as significant as earning well. 23:54
❤️ People move to California to feel that connection with nature: the risk-reward is valid. 30:20
