After 18 years in business, Kane asks Rob 18 key questions about entrepreneurship, wealth and more. In true Rob style, he shares some of his controversial opinions and takes on the world, money and power and reveals some of his best stories from 18 years in the game.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- In 18 years, Rob turned a single property development into a seven-figure annual income stream, proving his belief that property remains the most reliable wealth builder. His Aspect House project alone could fund retirement for his entire family.
- Through building multiple revenue streams, Rob demonstrates luxury purchases should be funded by asset income - his income-generating property project paid for his Lamborghini Aventador, Aston Martin DBS, and Porsche 911 Turbo.
- Rob's helicopter training taught him true freedom - being completely alone in the air gave him a sense of liberation beyond financial independence!
- After crashing a Ferrari 458 Spider and causing one of the "world's most expensive crashes," Rob learned that material possessions matter less than the lessons they teach. He still made money selling the crashed car!
- Rob's watch collection, including a Richard Mille worth more than his helicopter, taught him about "boy math" - the art of justifying emotional purchases with investment logic. He admits most watch purchases are emotional decisions wrapped in investment rationales.
- Starting at age 27 instead of earlier remains Rob's biggest regret. He believes this delay potentially cost him billions in compound growth, making inaction his riskiest business decision.
- Rob built a network of 26 billionaires through his podcast, which generates 150-200 million views annually. He values these relationships more than the tens of millions in revenue the podcast generates.
- From managing 1,350 tenants, Rob learned that property success comes from treating good tenants well, offering lower rents for longer terms to maintain occupancy.
- Initially £50,000 in debt, Rob's perception of wealth changed dramatically. He discovered most wealthy individuals weren't the tax evaders media portrayed, but rather people focused on value creation.
- Rob's most difficult business decision was firing a family member, teaching him that company success must sometimes supersede personal relationships.
BEST MOMENTS
"90% of businesses fail in 1-3 years”
"If you want to taste true freedom, fly solo in a helicopter for the first time. I've tasted financial freedom, location freedom, even freedom of the mind at times. But nothing compares to that moment."
"Most Americans will say it's better to rent than to buy a house... but 100 percent of rent is dead money. When you pay rent, you're paying off the landlord's mortgage. Might as well pay off your own mortgage."
"The pharmaceutical industry as a whole has no incentive to heal or cure you, and it will profit the most keeping you ill for the rest of your life but not dead."
"Don't forget where you're going and be more focused on where you're going than where you came from. A lot of people who want to hold you back to where you came from are still there."
