In this episode, Chris and Kevin get real about the blue-collar hustle, dropping some serious knowledge on what happens when you start raking in the dough. They dive into the highs and lows of managing that new wealth—because let's face it, with great power comes great potential for really dumb decisions. You'll hear why keeping your business lean and mean is the way to go, and why splurging on a yacht or ten might not be the best idea (at least, not yet).
Chris also spills the beans on his own rollercoaster rides with real estate and those "too good to be true" investments. Spoiler alert: they weren't all winners. But hey, every misstep is a lesson, right? The takeaway? Keep your eyes on the prize and invest in yourself—because no one's going to care about your success more than you do.
So, grab a seat, maybe a beer, and get ready for some straight talk and solid strategies from guys who've been there, done that, and have the scars (and successes) to prove it.
