Transcript
- 0:04SPEAKER_00: This is the DFS podcast where the money target gets real and financial freedom is more than just a goal.
- 0:12SPEAKER_00: Without further ado, let's dive in.
- 0:17SPEAKER_01: Let's talk about the second type of investor I have met time and time again over the years.
- 0:23SPEAKER_01: I say this with all due respect.
- 0:27SPEAKER_01: The investor with champagne taste on a beer budget.
- 0:32SPEAKER_01: This is the person who says, I want a big block of land, I want a modern house.
- 0:40SPEAKER_01: It has to be in a great suburb close to everything.
- 0:45SPEAKER_01: Oh, and by the way, my budget is tight and I'm not willing to compromise.
- 0:52SPEAKER_01: Sound familiar?
- 0:55SPEAKER_01: This is one of the most common and dangerous investor mindsets.
- 1:01SPEAKER_01: They want what even seasoned, well-funded investors would hesitate to chase.
- 1:09SPEAKER_01: They are convinced there is a perfect deal out there, a unicorn property that somehow no one else has noticed.
- 1:20SPEAKER_01: And here's the problem: while they are waiting for the dream, the market keeps moving.
- 1:27SPEAKER_01: They end up sitting on the sidelines for months, sometimes years, and during that time they lose access to real opportunities.
- 1:38SPEAKER_01: Properties that could have grown 30,000, 50,000, even$100,000 in equity.
- 1:46SPEAKER_01: That that is capital they could have leveraged into another deal.
- 1:52SPEAKER_01: But now it's gone.
- 1:54SPEAKER_01: Why?
- 1:55SPEAKER_01: Because they let expectation override execution.
- 2:00SPEAKER_01: This happens every day.
- 2:03SPEAKER_01: Now, don't get me wrong, wanting a great home or high performing investment is valid.
- 2:10SPEAKER_01: But being unrealistic about your borrowing capacity and unwilling to adjust, that's a recipe for disaster.
- 2:21SPEAKER_01: Here's the truth.
- 2:22SPEAKER_01: Your first investment doesn't need to be perfect, it needs to be possible, and it needs to get you started.
- 2:32SPEAKER_01: When you enter the market with a clear understanding of what your money can actually do and trust the process, that's when momentum builds.
- 2:46SPEAKER_01: That's when capital growth kicks in.
- 2:48SPEAKER_01: That's when the real journey starts.
