Raw and Relentless w/ Bo DePaoli

Episode 70:

In this episode of Raw & Relentless, Bo DePaoli sits down with Eugene Gershman, a real estate developer with a model most people have never seen before: he develops properties without buying the land. Instead, he partners directly with landowners, handling feasibility, financing, permitting, team assembly, and construction management, while taking the last position in the payout stack

.Eugene breaks down the reality behind development that most owners and investors never hear: the risks, the timelines, the land-use traps, and why builders and GCs often sit in direct conflict with the owner’s interests. He also explains why he targets a 2X equity multiple instead of chasing IRR projections that fall apart under real-world timelines.

You’ll learn:

● How Eugene partners with landowners without acquiring the dirt

● Why the developer getting paid last protects the deal● The truth about permitting timelines (12–18 months) and real construction cycles

● CM vs GC: who actually works for YOU

● Why land-use code—not building code—is the real battleground

● How he derisks deals by avoiding over-leveraged capital stacks

● Why most people underestimate development—and why others think it’s rocket science

Whether you own land, invest in real estate, or want the unfiltered version of what development really takes, this conversation is a blueprint for safer partnerships, stronger deals, and smarter execution.

💥 How to earn 1.5–2% every week while holding quality stocks💥 Why “diversification” is Wall Street’s favorite pacifier

💥 The self-directed IRA strategy the rich quietly use

Episode 68:In this episode of Raw & Relentless,Bo DePaoli sits down with Tommy Kilpatrick, a retired teacher and author who claims he uncovered one of the biggest financial myths in America that banks actually lend you money.

After an infomercial deal collapsed in 2004, Tommy was left with $85,000 in credit card debt and no income. Instead offiling bankruptcy, he started digging and what he found inside a Federal Reserve manual called Modern Money Mechanics changed everything.

He says banks don’t loan out depositors’ money. They simply create credit by writing numbers into your account.
And when he filed a federal lawsuit against three major banks… his alleged debt disappeared from his credit report with no 1099-C from the IRS.

You’ll learn:
💥 Why banks don’t actually lend depositor money
💥 What Modern Money Mechanics really says about credit creation
💥 How Tommy filed a lawsuit and saw $85,000 erased
💥 Why skepticism matters more than blind trust
💥 What “alleged debt” really means and how language shapes law

Whether you agree with him or not, this conversation will make you question everything you were taught about money, credit, and who really controls the system.
