E212: Investing in Yourself With Real Estate Investor Andrew Cushman


Listen Later

From selling minigolf courses’ lost balls back to them as a child to having flipped thousands of apartments to this day, Andrew Cushman has always had a knack for entrepreneurship. By a happy accident, he’s become one of the biggest real estate investors around.

Achieving this wasn’t a walk in the park, however. Andrew’s road to success was a humbling one; it took a lot of grit, guts, and discipline before he could get to glory. We’re often told to learn from our mistakes, but Andrew takes it a step further — he’s made sure to never make them again.

    “Go find somebody that is already very successful at what you want to do, and learn from them.”

    “Be disciplined about the deals that you do or the business that you create.”

    “In my opinion, [the] correct path in the middle, when you're looking at a deal or business or becoming an entrepreneur, is to sit down and lay out what are all of the risks.”

    “You will much more regret the deal that you did that you shouldn't have than you would regret the deal that you didn't do that you should have.”

    “There was a lot of failures there, but the flip side of that is [that] we've never had anything happen like that again since, because of what we learned on that deal.”

    “I think the most important part is taking care of home life first.”
