On today’s episode Rich sits down with David Pere - Entrepreneur, Real Estate Investor, Podcast Host, Author, Public Speaker, and Financially Free Marine. Dave is a 13-year Marine Corps veteran. In 2015, he purchased his first real estate investment– a duplex he house hacked, and then went all in on real estate. In 5 years he went from a negative net worth, to a millionaire with 100+ rental units, and was able to transition off active duty to work for himself. He’s written two books now about building wealth while serving, and has a community of 60,000+ Military Millionaires. 

Rich and Dave start off by discussing Rich’s Beers & Deal Meetup, Dave being able to exit the Marine Corps in December of 2023, Dave’s experience as a convoy truck driver, military pensions, why there’s no guarantee with pensions, the worst case scenario, Springfield, MO, Dave’s portfolio in Missouri, Dave’s new property in Tennessee, boutique hotels, increasing efficiency, and Patel Hotel Motels.

They then reflect on Dave’s portfolio in RV parks and boutique hotels, how Dave got started, the power of a brand, Connor McGregor and Road House, Dave’s experience renting on Turo, Fast Lane Drive, Rich’s G-Wagon, no money down loans and VA loans, barndominiums, living in places to entertain, Dave’s experience with social media, Dave’s Mastermind: The War Room, Rich and Dave’s biggest takeaway from getting into real estate, financial freedom, sleep schedules, and the highest and best use of Dave’s time.

Lastly, they talk about what Dave is most excited about for 2024, micro and macro-dosing, and prioritizing family.
