Ten Years In The Making 015: From Arrested by FBI to Building a $50M Roofing Business with Moises Sanchez
You’ve undoubtedly heard the term “From Rags to Riches,” but today’s guest has a story that will blow your mind. This might be one of the most insane “American Dream” success stories I’ve ever heard. Don’t say I didn’t warn you!
Moises Sanchez’s path to success certainly wasn’t easy. After leaving Mexico with a 6th-grade education, his family moved to the US (illegally) with no money and without knowing a word of English. He became a guerrilla marketing phenom in real estate by the age of 18 and eventually grinded his way to a successful multi-million dollar roofing business that brought in $50M last year.
But there’s so much more to his story than that. While in the US, enjoying tremendous success in real estate, he started going down the wrong path. With outstanding warrants in the US, his parents forced him to leave the US and move back to Mexico.
This is where it starts to get crazy. Moises moved back to Mexico with $350K, met his wife and bought a pig farm. Life was great until he eventually woke up to gunfire from Narcos in Mexico. After nearly losing his life, he left Mexico to return to the US, but was arrested by the FBI and ended up in jail. Moises did his time, got released, and started a new life with his roofing business. And the rest, as they say, is history.
Today’s episode is a powerful story of inspiration, how true success is often found with true grit and by overcoming many impossible obstacles, and how the American dream is possible if you never give up. If Moises can do it, then nobody has an excuse.
