Background I had traded shares back in the early 90's had a few for a number of years prior to that too as lost alot in the crash of 87 at that stage I wasn't trading. But started in the 90's and made alot of money then decided in 96 to get out as I felt I had only been lucky and I would concentrate on our then business of building the countries largest pet shop, we used the Shares to purchase the land, borrowed the rest from the bank, and it was very successful. I hated working in it though it just wasnt my passion my passion had been to set it up and get it running so i searched and discovered I was going to make a go of property, well that decision was made in Sept 98 when I attended a course on understanding your mind, I decided then I would get into property as I quite liked it. went to a couple of courses that next year read some books and the following year after attending another seminar I just decided that was it I wasnt going to listen to those who told me I couldnt any longer and went out and the rest is history, traded over 300 in 6 years, done a few since, currently holding about 70 including some land which I would really like to move. Have some more under contract too.
about to start a mentoring business as I have decided it is time to spend the time helping others get ahead too. Still will do a few property deals including purchasing a few more 15%ers sold alot of those a few years ago, maybe not the smartest move but seemed a good idea at the time. Probably was they were not in crash hot areas. Going to keep educating myself too plan to do an NLP course later this year.
plan to the future is to purchase our land at Waiheke we have found build the mansion on the coast, carry on with the mentoring and run a few seminars again too. also will speak at others which I have done in the past. and best of all sit back and drink wine on the beach.
