Fortune Builders Jumpstart

I recently attended a FortuneBuilders Seminar and spoke to a coach 1on 1. Originally they wanted us to purchase the Mastery program but it was too expensive. So we were offered the Jumpstart program which is costly as well. Speaking to the coach we’ve opened up 2 Credit cards that gives us a total of $25,800. Now we’re very apprehensive about giving money away especially in this amount. We’re thinking maybe we could use this capital that we for marketing and trying to acquire property. Any suggestions on the route we should take?

La'Crystal,

Nice to meet you. I’m Paul Esajian and I am one of the owners of FB.

I would be happy to answer any questions you might have about my company or any of our programs. Please feel free to reach out to me personally by messaging me directly through this site. 

You should obviously do what you feel most comfortable with. Regardless of how you decide to educate yourself I would definitely recommend being patient and spending ample amount of time building your educational foundation before you just jump in. People often underestimate the risk involved in real estate investing and how costly it can be to an investor if they make mistakes early on in their investing careers. 

Of course, I am biased as I am one of the owners of the company and I’ve played a big role in the development of our many different educational events, online curriculum, tools and software. 

I would never claim our program is the cheapest or only way to get educated. I am sure many people will recommend trying to piece together information from different places to try and save money and that can work for some people. 

Doing this will definitely be cheaper, but could be a lot slower because in my opinion it's not the most structured way of learning or building a systems dependent business.

What I do know is that we’ve had a lot of success with our real estate investments over the past 16 years. In the past 12 months alone we have also acquired over $200m in residential and commercial assets. 

We've also helped a lot of other people over the last decade get started who have attended our classes through our various programs.

Feel free to contact me directly as my information is at the bottom of this post and I am happy to answer any questions.
