 Are you tired of the "rat race" and working for a paycheck that gets eaten by inflation and taxes? In this episode, host Jacqueline Landry sits down with professional athlete turned real estate mogul Dan Brisse to deconstruct the actual mechanics of building generational wealth.

Dan shares how he transitioned from being a professional snowboarder in a high-tax bracket to managing $170 million in equity through strategic real estate investing. We dive deep into the "secret sauce" of multifamily investing, including cap rate compression, bonus depreciation, and the mindset shift required to move from a "saver" to an "investor".

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The Power of Multiples: How a $100k investment can turn into $180k or $200k in a 3–7 year hold.
• Tax Strategy: How Dan used "Cost Segregation" to lower his taxable income from $253k to $113k—saving $34k in a single year.
• Market Mechanics: Why rising interest rates affect property values and why the next three years could be the best buying opportunity since 2011.
• The BI Quadrant: Shifting from an employee/self-employed mindset to a business owner/investor mindset.
• Teaching the Next Generation: How to talk to your kids about passive income so they don't grow up dreading the "rat race".

In this episode of Get Diversified, host Jacqueline Landry sits down with Dan Brisse, a legendary professional snowboarder turned real estate powerhouse. Dan shares his incredible journey from winning X Games gold medals to building a $74M real estate portfolio through multifamily syndication.

Dan reveals the "scary" realization that led him to real estate and explains the "rinse and repeat" value-add model he uses to create consistent passive income for himself and his investors. Whether you are an athlete looking for your next chapter or an aspiring investor, this episode provides a masterclass on hedging inflation and achieving financial freedom.

Key Takeaways from Dan Brisse:

• The Power of Belief: How a supportive environment in childhood fueled a 15-year professional snowboarding career.
• The Transition: Why seeing the "brutal" end of other athletes' careers pushed Dan to find a new passion in wealth building.
• The Value-Add Model: A real-world case study of an 88-unit property in Texas, detailing how upgrades like water conservation and private backyards drove a 12% cash-on-cash return.
• The Wealth Ratio: Moving beyond just covering expenses to creating a life of true passive income and passion.
• Assets vs. Cash: Why saving dollars on a fixed income is a "losing game" in an inflationary environment and why owning real assets is the ultimate hedge.

Key Quote:  "It’s not how much you make; it’s how much you keep." — K. Trevor Thompson 

In this episode of Get Diversified, host Jacqueline Landry welcomes back K. Trevor Thompson for an in-depth conversation about transitioning from passive to active investing in multifamily syndications.

Trevor shares his remarkable career journey—from working at Guinness World Records and having lunch with Michael Jackson, to opening 46 iFly locations worldwide, and eventually discovering the power of real estate syndications. After losing his corporate position during COVID, Trevor turned his passion for passive investing into an active role as Vice President of Investor Engagement and General Partner with Massive Capital.

What You'll Learn:

• The critical differences between passive and active investing
• Why Trevor invested passively in 20 deals before becoming a GP

• Why keeping your passive money working is crucial to building wealth
• What it takes to be successful as a multifamily GP

Key Quote: "If you invested $100,000 and doubled it every 5 years, reinvesting all proceeds, in 25 years you'd have over $3.2 million. That's the TRUE power of passive investing."

Whether you're considering passive investing for the first time, or contemplating the move to active general partnership, this episode offers valuable insights from someone who's successfully made the transition.
