Quotables “At the time, I was like, okay a drone is cool and there’s some really interesting stuff going on there, but I didn’t really grasp what it meant to have technology under your control and coding taught me that.” “We went back to the world of wholesaling real estate investors because as people in technology or in start ups, we’re looking for the place where we can really innovate.” “The key difference between any other platform and what you can do on TwnSqr is any asset that you upload to TwnSqr, you have complete control over who has access to it and how that’s used.” “The main customer that we’re monetizing right now are the wholesalers, the real estate investors who are posting the properties and who want to take advantage of our tools, but you don’t have to.” Links Website: RCN Capital https://www.rcncapital.com/podcast Website: REI INK https://rei-ink.com/

climbing the ladder of success

When immigrants get to the United States of America, they are made to believe that money grows in trees. Unfortunately, money doesn’t grow on trees. People do whatever it takes to ensure they get the money.  On this episode, I have the pleasure of hosting Krzysztof Warchol. He is the owner of Estate Solution. When he first came to America in 1996, Krzysztof took odd jobs to make ends meet. He has worked as a salesman, janitor, limo driver, and real estate investor.  Krzysztof’s story is enough evidence that we can achieve anything if we have the right mindset. In this episode, Krzysztof shares how he transitioned from one role to another until he got to where he is today.  Listen and get motivated.  Quotes from the Episode: “Never give up. When you set the goal, when you set the target, go for it.” “When you decide to do something, you need to be consistent.” “I’m trying to teach my children how to make their money work for them.” “Never give up guys. It cannot be worse than it already is.” Connect: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krzysztof-warchol-b85007170/
