The Humble Journey To Becoming A Billionaire

In this episode of the Millionaire Mindcast, we have a return guest from episode 2, David Osborn who shares insights and wisdom on how to navigate entrepreneurship in today’s environment, why spending money and enjoying life matters, how to deal with impostor syndrome, how to be successful in real estate, and smart and strategic way to build wealth!

David is a father, an incredible entrepreneur, real estate investor, speaker, and wealth-building mentor, traveler, author of the best-selling book “Wealth Can’t Wait”, co-founder of GoBundance, an accountability-based group of entrepreneurs, and sits on the board of the 1Life Fully Lived non-profit, a member of YPO/WPO Austin and TIGER 21, and contributes to various causes from fighting cancer to building clean water wells through Charity Water.

He is also the principal owner of the 6th largest real estate company in the US, operating principal and/or investor in five Keller Williams Regions and nine Market Centers owns 20+ real estate related ventures, principle of an REI private equity group, and the operator of over 35 profitable real estate-related businesses in the US and Canada.

David got around with wealth as a kid. At a young age, he decided to be rich like his uncle. He was a great student and worked very hard throughout his life. He believes that it takes some sacrifice, some process, and some pain to build wealth.

At 37, David bought his first new car. He realized that although he needed to live below his means but also spending money and enjoying life really matters. In spite of being successful in his journey, David shows up being humble and always shows the eagerness to learn from high-level people. He keeps looking for winners who can teach him anything that would be useful to reach his goals.

Besides, he is a black mamba when it comes to his goals. David strikes, sleeps with the approach, and gets his goals done. In fact, he maintains a habit tracker that tracks all the things he wants to get through. Also, he tried to give value to others by any means like through his wealth-building mentorship.

Now, David has 101 single-family homes and makes a million a year without doing anything. His best advice, don’t wait and waste time buying real estate. Do it now!
