What does it take to recover from a financial crisis and come back stronger with a smarter investment strategy? In this episode, we talk with Patrick Grimes, Founder of Passive Investing Mastery and Invest on Main Street, about his path from engineering and automation to real estate and alternative investments. He shares how his early education and upbringing shaped his mindset, and how losing everything in 2008 changed the way he approaches wealth.

Patrick opens up about how he now focuses on non-correlated markets—like litigation finance, commercial real estate, and alternative assets—to build recession-resilient portfolios. He explains why diversification is key and how safe leverage plays a big role in long-term success. He also shares the structure behind his funds and why having the right team and education makes all the difference.

Tune in to learn how to start small, build financial knowledge, and make smart moves in today’s uncertain market. Patrick also shares free tools and resources at investwithpatrick.com for those ready to explore what’s possible beyond traditional investing!
