#5: Grant Cardone - Founder of Cardone Capital, Mr. 10X, Best Selling Author, Leader of Men
In this episode I sit down with Grant and discuss what made him achieve his massive success. He gives great advice to budding entrepreneurs and people that are thinking about quitting. It's hard to believe, but just 12 years ago this man was only worth $2M at the age of 53. All of his major successes have come between the age of 53-65. He truly is an example of his 10X lifestyle. Take a listen!
