Steven Jack Butala:

Jack and Jill here.

Jill K DeWit:

Hello.

Steven Jack Butala:

Welcome to the Land Academy Show, entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala.

Jill K DeWit:

And I'm Jill DeWit, broadcasting from the Valley of the Sun.

Steven Jack Butala:

Today, Jill and I talk about how 90% of millionaires own real estate. What a sentence.

Jill K DeWit:

I know.

Steven Jack Butala:

The real question is great, 90% of millionaires own real estate, and I think we all are familiar with this type of concept one way or another. The question is, how did they start? I can answer that and we're going to talk about it. The answer is one deal at a time.

Jill K DeWit:

I wonder how many of those people, this is the majority of what got them there. You know what I'm saying? Did they have another business and then they branched? Because some people have other businesses and then they realize what's possible in real estate and then they get into real estate. And some people, fortunately enough, started just in real estate, like you, and took that to the moon.

Steven Jack Butala:

I've always wondered that too. I don't know if it's a result of creating wealth somewhere else. I bet-

Jill K DeWit:

There you go.

Steven Jack Butala:

... it's probably 50/50. But in the end, what we do, real estate was just a vehicle. We started a company. It's starting companies and creating something and then plowing money into other things.

Jill K DeWit:

Making it great.

Steven Jack Butala:

Exactly. Before we get into it, let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community. It's free.

Jill K DeWit:

I would like to note, make a quick little announcement here, that if you are thinking about Land Academy, you're going to want to check out this Thursday coming up. Thursday, December 15th, join me live on YouTube and Facebook. Go to our Facebook page and you can sign up there and get all the details. The title is going to be, what I'm going to talk about is How to Buy and Sell Land for Zero Down and Recession Proof Your Business. How cool is that? One of the things about us is this is not our first recession, not just based on age, but that's part of it.

Steven Jack Butala:

It's based on age for me.

Jill K DeWit:

Part of it. But let me go back and just say this too. Not only is this not our first recession, this is going on your third recession being in this industry.

Steven Jack Butala:

Yeah, that's true.

Jill K DeWit:

That is what's unique.

Steven Jack Butala:

Yeah, that's true.

Jill K DeWit:

This is going to be Jack's third time doing this as an investor. And I know, because I came in with Jack towards the tail end of the last one, and I saw and I knew and I watched some of the people that were other land investors in our space not make it. I was able to be there with you and watch it rise back up again. And now we're just in such a better place. So anyway, we're going to talk about things like that on Thursday, so join in. It's going to be awesome.

Back to the question. Jeff wrote, "Hey, I'm just putting some feelers out there to see if anyone would have any interest in some help on their Jack type duties." There's Jack duties and there's JILL duties. "If you get anxiety at sitting at your computer and looking at your screen, I may be able to help. I can help with data pulling, scrubbing, data scraping, pricing, online research or similar tasks. If I can bring any value to your business, please do not hesitate to contact me. I'd love to see if we could put something together and help each other."

Steven Jack Butala:

So this is in the section of the Land Academy Discord that we've set up for just this type of thing, so everybody can-

Jill K DeWit:

Partnership.

Steven Jack Butala:

... partnership, get together and help each other. This is specifically in the subcategory partnership wanted.

Jill K DeWit:

This is not help wanted. We don't have a help wanted section.
