Jack Gibson is an international. serial entrepreneur and financial thought leader. He began his journey at 19 in direct sales from his college dorm room in a nutrition distribution company, where he built a multi-million dollar venture before he was old enough to rent a car. After a series of stock market setbacks, he became obsessed with learning everything about Real Estate Investing and built another multi-million dollar portfolio generating passive income.   But who is this Jack guy, really? He's a proud parent of two boys who make it their mission to bring out his inner teenager. When he's not playing around with them or focusing on business ventures, he's playing high stakes poker (he's competed in the World Series of Poker and has been known to lose several thousand dollars on a single hand) or he's attempting snowboard jumps that have landed him in the ER. He's not perfect. He's made plenty of costly mistakes in business and investing, that put him in the depths of depression. But he fought through it and has turned those mistakes into lessons he can teach aspiring entrepreneurs and wealth builders.
