Episode #9: How Amazon’s Architect Engineered His Way Into Real Estate
Wednesday Jun 14, 2023
Wednesday Jun 14, 2023
I’d like to welcome to our show, Samir Patel, who's joining us all the way from Northern Virginia.
One day, after graduating college and starting his first job, Samir realized that working a 9-to-5 job for 40 years and retiring wasn't going to cut it for him. He began exploring ways to make money, build wealth, and get rich, and after reading a ton of forums and articles, he stumbled upon a book that everyone was raving about - Rich Dad Poor Dad.
He devoured the book on his daily metro commutes and found himself inspired to break free from the traditional mindset of working for decades and retiring. He initially started with stocks but realized that it wasn't for him since he didn't have much control over it.
So, Samir began to educate himself on real estate investing and learned about the ways others were doing it. Two and a half years ago, he took the plunge into real estate investing, all while working his full-time job as a data architect at AWS. And now, he's on his journey to becoming a successful real estate investor and living life on his own terms.
