🤔What can real estate investing teach us about adaptability, strategic thinking, and the power of putting capital to work for long-term wealth?

 

⚡️In this episode of Die Hard Entrepreneur Stories, I sit down with Cory Lawson, a seasoned sales and marketing professional who made a bold move during COVID to launch a wholesaling business in Tampa, Florida. Cory shares the journey from his first "wildly easy" deal to the systemic challenges that forced him to build a true business.

 

We dig into his career pivot from wholesaling to private money lending, a shift prompted by a family move and a strategic decision to leverage a self-directed IRA. Cory's story is a masterclass in adapting to life's changes while continuing to pursue entrepreneurial success.

 

If you're an entrepreneur, investor, or simply someone looking to put your capital to work, Cory's journey is an incredible lesson in resilience, strategic thinking, and building long-term wealth.
