But we hustlers you know, and we both started real estate at a very, very early age. And when you start real estate, just like right out of college, and none of your friends are people, you know, I've actually owned or bought a product before, it can be intimidating.

Thank you, brother.Why don't you tell everybody? Who the hell are you? Where are you from? And I got a whole kinds of questions for you.Perfect. I'm from El Paso, Texas. And really, the real estate side started when I was 19. I just got into the University of Texas at Austin, go Longhorns. And I needed to find a way to pay for college because I didn't want my parents to pay for college. And I really want it to be like independent from any of that having to rely on someone. I wasn't going to do an eight to five though I did not like having a boss. Sure. So what better way to make my own schedule and make as much money as possible. Then real estate. I got my license at 19. I started doing leasing, which is when I would find apartments for students. There were a ton of students, I was a part of a lot of groups, I'd find apartments and those apartments would pay me because I brought people over. That's how I got my foot in the door on the real estate side. My mindset was really look, I'm just going to do leasing. I'm not like worthy of being able to make a sale or any of that sort."
