From Struggle to Success: A Journey of Self-Discovery

In this episode of The Property Nerds, co-hosts Arjun Paliwal and Adrian Lee from InvestorKit, and Jack Fouracre from Fouracre Financial, sit down with Michael Thomas to explore his journey from mental health struggles to building a $20 million property portfolio.

Michael shares how flipping phones and succeeding in car sales sparked his entrepreneurial drive and set him on the path to financial freedom.

The trio dives into Michael’s practical investment strategy, including why he partners with buyer’s agents and trusts experts rather than trying to do it all himself.

They also discuss the difference between material wealth and lasting fulfilment, with Michael revealing why mentoring and living by his values matter more than Lamborghinis and Ferraris.

Michael opens up about how his property goals evolved – from owning a home outright to building a passive income portfolio that supports his lifestyle, with a strategic shift towards commercial property.
