What if you could change your life in two years, from a job to multiple rental properties, bringing you almost $2,000 in passive income? That's what you're going to hear in today's inspiring episode of Invest2FI. As Craig Curelop interviews Ty Lewis, a young, outstanding real estate investor with a journey that is nothing but remarkable. Ty's story starts out modestly, working at Chick-fil-A.
