Today, for the second time, I read the "Think Rich - Quick!: How to become a Pinoy Real Estate Millionaire" book by Trace Trajano and Lary Gamboa. I bought the book last July 12, 2009 because Bo Sanchez, one of my favorite authors (and also my "virtual" mentor! oh yes, i don't know if i used the right term though. but his talks and books inspired me so much that I appointed him to be my "virtual" mentor without him really knowing it! ), highly endorsed it. He even wrote the book's Foreword entitled Are you Big? wherein he said:
After reading the book for the first time, I was motivated to attend Larry Gamboa's Think Rich Pinoy! seminar on August 1, 2009. That's where I got to see my "virtual" mentor - Bo Sanchez - in person! And if only for that, the seminar fee was worth it. The rest of the talk are bonus, bonus and more bonus. We met (i attended the seminar with my husband) people who have already made it big in the real estate investing industry. Most of them are really very young people whom i couldn't help but admire. How I wish I also started to venture in this field at the same age. But the good news is, it's never too late. Given the situation that I am in right now, I am just as motivated, passionate and driven as they are --- and perhaps more desperately so.
And after months of reading more information about the business, not really knowing how and where to start, (in short I was not really doing anything at all!) , I decided to re-read the book that started it all. This time with new enthusiasm and real desire to learn the ropes. I had my pen and highlighter ready for important things to note in the articles. And I made my action plans. This time, they are written plans. Not the usual kind that you just keep in your head. The book specifically said that every successful investor has goals --- written ones, not just objectives bouncing around in his head. And he works toward those goals everyday.
This day will definitely make a mark in my history! Because today, I am starting my personal journey to Financial freedom. It's just a small step, a single step among the many more that I need to take. It could take a hundred miles. It might take many months. I will never know. But I have to believe that Life is always about choices. And I want to exercise that freedom of choice TODAY.
Join me. We have a lot to learn and discover.... starting today!
"if you're looking for actual, real-life Pinoy millionaires who can teach you how you can become one, then this is it."I was not disappointed. In his very first book, the US-based Pinoy millionaire, Trace Trajano, shares his expertise in real estate business to help the readers achieve financial success. Together with Think rich, Pinoy! series author, Larry Gamboa, they discussed million-building techniques they have mastered about wholesaling in real estate, retailing formula and starting out in the real estate business with nothing.
