S1 Ep 27#027 - Timothy Noah (The Great Divergence)

Mike interviews Timothy.For the past three decades, America has steadily become a nation of haves and have-nots. Our incomes are increasingly drastically unequal: the top 1% of Americans collect almost 20% of the nation's income-more than double their share in 1973. We have less equality of income than Venezuela, Kenya, or Yemen.What economics Nobelist Paul Krugman terms "the Great Divergence" has until now been treated as little more than a talking point, a club to be wielded in ideological battles. But it may be the most important change in this country during our lifetimes-a sharp, fundamental shift in the character of American society, and not at all for the better.The income gap has been blamed on everything from computers to immigration, but its causes and consequences call for a patient, non-partisan exploration. In The Great Divergence, Timothy Noah delivers this urgently needed inquiry, ignoring political rhetoric and drawing on the best work of contemporary researchers to peer beyond conventional wisdom. Noah explains not only how the Great Divergence has come about, but why it threatens American democracy-and most important, how we can begin to reverse it.The Great Divergence is poised to be one of the most talked-about books of 2012, a jump-start to the national conversation about what kind of society we aspire to be in the 21st century: a land of equality, or a city on a hill-with a slum at the bottom.Follow Mike Fallat on Instagram, Facebook, Truth, Tik Tok, Twitter, and Linkedin.Visit https://dreamstarterspublishing.com to publish your book today!

It consumed my mind and I started thinking what made me special enough to survive.

Everyone used three words to describe who I was; I just realized they were right.Strong… Positive… Warrior! Since then, I have never looked back.

S1 Ep 13#013 - John Evans (The End Game)

Mike interviews John Evans.I know, a lot of you are afraid of taking that leap of faith because it isn’t easy letting go of the paycheck-to-paycheck lifestyle. We are accustomed to seeing money coming into our account every month, and the idea that we deliberately stop that and focus all our energies on a business, that is scary. However, it really isn’t if you take into account what you can go on to achieve; freedom. You end up getting freedom in life, something we could have only dreamed of in the corporate world. We get to choose what we want to do, when we want to do it, how, where, and why. We are the masters of our own destiny, and we get to play our own game. With that said, it is easy to lose track of things and find yourself in a ditch almost immediately. That is why, I decided to put together this book to teach you some of the most important lessons that I have learned throughout my life and experience. These lessons have helped me learn so much in life. Without each of them, I would have never been where I am today. Therefore, should you feel the need to write some stuff down, go ahead and do so. In this book, I will talk about these lessons as well as some of the things we do in the world of real estate, just to help you understand how things work. My goal is to give you a roadmap so that you don’t have to spend years and years to figure the basics out.My first real estate deal was a 126k duplex and 2.5yrs later I purchased a $3.75M portfolio from a local investor. I began a property management company (side hustle) while still working my W-2, this was the beginning of my taste of freedom. My wife and I created a roadmap for me to leave my W-2 in 2021 and I never looked back. Today, I own The Alliance Companies with my business partner we operate in property management, own a rental portfolio, AirBnB, fix/flip company, property maintenance/construction, appraisals, residential/commercial landscaping, and currently looking for the next acquisition – We never stop!Follow Mike Fallat on Instagram, Facebook, Truth, Tik Tok, Twitter, and Linkedin.Visit https://dreamstarterspublishing.com to publish your book today!
