Grant Cardone’s dig at Bigger Pockets today?

[Michael Schultz]

Seeing if anyone caught Grant Cardone’s dig at BP on his show today. Anyone have thoughts on his advice of going Big right out of the gate? Along with staying away from SFH/ small multi’s?

There are so many different definitions of success in real estate (and life). So, I'm always suspicious when someone points the path the "right" or best" way. Usually it's marketers selling you something.

And scale -- I don't see that as a holy grail of real estate. I see making money serve your life as the holy grail. And that can happen with 5 properties in many cases and 500 in other cases.

Many of the big syndicators and go-getters I know talk about lifestyle, vacations, etc out of one side of their mouth while their huge, monster of an "automated and outsourced" business controls their lives. If they want to take over the world, that's awesome. Go for it. But let's not pretend that's the only or best way to live an awesome life.
