“It's difficult to stay three steps ahead and you get kicked 12 steps back sometimes. And I really just kept fighting and kept focusing and kept in the bigger path.” – Marc Kuhn

“Nowadays, the path is to accumulate assets, generate passive income and make money during it, but not making money in the conventional way. Making money through maybe doing work, but leveraging other people's time, not me necessarily doing all the work.” – Marc Kuhn

“I'm leveraging my path now. I just went all the way in on conferences, to books, podcasts, courses, spending money on myself really increased my skill set.” – Marc Kuhn

“I think if you can just get the path of least resistance and that was kind of my our take when we rented these [storages], we've had a lot of success with and we rent them as fast as we can build them.” – Marc Kuhn
