I'm sat here with Kane Harris. We did a financial freedom challenge together.
I thought you'd be really good at sales. We desperately need the money. When we met, you were 16. You had no money. You just were recovering from cancer on the back end of chemotherapy. Working class. You're about as self-made as you can get.
I'm looking on social media. I see people making money and they go and splash out. But that's just social media.
You can win the lottery and statistically you're going to lose all that money. I know you completed on the house.
Picked on the keys literally a couple days ago. But the day of completion, you messaged me and said, "Yay, I'm completing today." And then you went, "Oh, my lawyer's asking to be paid. I need to pay him a couple thousand." I don't have a couple thousand. Oh, jeez. That car that I got you, I think that might have cost me about 3,000. How much did they get give you for it? Like 750.
So that 30bedroom hotel, I sold that for 12,000. It's awesome.
What's the lesson? Sounded too good to be true. Did you feel like Quinn at that point?
I'm sat here with Kane Harris. We did a financial freedom challenge together and we spent one week together. And now it's been I think 4 months. Has it been about 4 months? About four months. And I wanted to sit down with you and find out what you've done since, how business is going since we spent that week together.
So firstly, thanks for coming down to Dubai. How are you finding Dubai? It's really nice. Um I mean the weather's changed a lot and uh yeah man, you got a nice place. So it's great to have you, man. And we've been spending the week together here as well, but this time more, you know, just enjoying things. We've not had a chance to sit down oneonone and talk about what you've done exactly, but firstly, I know you completed on the house, which was absolutely epic.
Picked up the keys literally couple days ago. That is absolutely Have you been there yet? Yeah. Yeah, I've been there. What did it look like? Yeah, it's the exact same when we viewed it. Yeah, it's really nice. So, how does it feel to be the youngest landlord in Britain? It like boo it boosts my ego, you know, walking around thinking I own that. You know what I mean? That but that is that for me. I had the same thing. I remember when I got my first property, I was a teenager as well and it gave me like a real buzz and I was like, wow, I own I own that. It's amazing. People spend their whole life saving up money to get on the property ladder. So, for me, it was like a real boost. But that boost actually helped me. It gave me confidence to think what I know what I'm doing man to to move on. So I don't I don't know how you or for you is it just like ego or what's going on?
No, it's sort of it's a stepping stone, isn't it? It's a stepping stone into life. And it's also it did make me sit back and think people have never bought a house in their entire lives. People go there entire lives and they never buy a house. I was actually speaking to an older couple. They've been married for like 60 odd years, right? I asked them if they're into property. They said, "Yeah, they they rent they've been renting their entire life. Never owned a house in their entire life." That shocked me. It took me back to obviously what I'm doing now. Made me appreciate what I had more and also made me appreciate you a lot more. Helped me out at this age, you know.
And you are 17 still. I'm turning 18. This month. Yeah. What's what what else has happened then? So, it's been it's been like 4 months.
What's happened in terms of deal sourcing? You had a hotel that we were looking at. What's is that is that So on the lease option side on the hotel the business partner we met at Liverpool in a circle. That's go um it's still going. What's his name again? That guy Ryan. So you met him at the Oh at the um networking event. The networking event and and the whole you he asked you for a beer and you couldn't buy it. Yeah. How was that? Was that like for real? Does that as it happened like Yeah. I mean I I had some cash. I took him to the bar. Did he know that you was he was he was he messing with you or did genuinely not know? I mean he knew that I was 17, but we just didn't think I'd get IDed. And then I asked him what drink he wanted. He said he wanted a beer. I went to get him a beer and they asked me for my ID. So bit awkward. He had to get his own beer.
And then um yeah, we still did his business though. We ended up having to sit down. I had a pint of water and then um yes. And then a couple days later we viewed the hotel and the car you bought me and yeah, he went ahead with it and we're still in legals at the minute. There's loads more stuff that needs to be done.
It can take time and what I mean typically it takes 3 to 6 months to buy a house. You've got legals. We push the Scotland and Scotland is quite fast, isn't it? Was your solicitor totally fine then with you the whole time? Because it was really tough, wasn't it? Getting a lawyer. He was totally fine. He was probably the hardest part of the week was finding him. Yes. Without him, it was like challenge failed, right?
So, what was the name of the solicitors then? Daniel. Um, I don't Daniel was was the guy's name, but you don't remember the name of the firm? No, I don't remember the name. We'll need to leave a link in the description and give a shout out to the and give a shout out to the firm. Also, as well, give a shout out to uh Tatiana RS Law. Oh, RS Law. Tatiana was Quiff on everything cuz she was representing you. And then you had the No, I don't even remember, man. It was Tatiana was representing you. I think Daniel was representing Oh, for the family's finance. Yeah. Yeah. Daniel was representing me, but then there was a third slitter that was representing Tatiana.
So, how much you pay for legal fees and all that? Like, how much? I had to pay two and a half grand. Now, I had a bit of a a fright because this won't have been in the dock, but the day of completion, you messaged me and said, "Yay, I'm completing today." And then YOU WENT, "OH, MY lawyer's asking to be paid. I need to pay him a couple thousand. I I don't I don't have a couple thousand. Spent Yeah. Oh jeez. What happened there? Cuz that kind of stressed me out.
So, well, it stressed me out all morning as well. So, I booked my trip to Dubai. I've paid for some stuff in the future. I've got obviously all my money is going towards the Scotland house and the Blackpool Hotel. It's money being put in there. I had literally £500 in my account. And I know my solicitor's fees were £850, but I knew I could have sorted that. And then he asked me for 22 grand. Why that morning? I don't know. I still don't know. Why did he ask you 2 and a half grand? I don't know, but it needed to be paid there and then. So, I actually don't know. I didn't really read the invoice. I just knew that I need to pay two and a half grand. So, I messaged you. I said, "Right, I need two and a half grand. Let me sort it out." Ended up getting a loan off a mate who's actually he's invested in one of my third hotels as well. So, I just got a loan off a mate.
So, you got you got a third hotel now. I got a third hotel as well. Yeah. bro. That's that's surreal.
So, a lot's happened. Yeah. Yeah, a lot's happened.
How How are you managing your money? Because I'll find if you if you go on Google and you type in how to become a millionaire, it will say save, budget, invest. You haven't really done that at all. You've not you've not worked hard and saved up and invest. You've just been like and gone to town. Um, how how are you managing your money and how are you making sure that because as an entrepreneur the fact that legal fees bill comes in I don't know it can be a bit load of money one minute and then it goes out and you invest it and then hotel you got to pay for furniture. You know how are you kind of managing things to make sure that that you're in you know cash flow is good.
Mhm. So now after the challenge, I know I had the blip with a legal fee, but that was that was a bit of a one-off for me now. But now unexpected two and a half grand salary for a lot of people. Yeah. So I could just snap with that straight away. What I do now every time I get paid up from deal sourcing, 50% of it I have no control of. Like as in I'll send it to a different bank account and that would just save it, right? And then the other 50% I can just have to do whatever I need to do as in spend it, have fun with it, have fun.
But I But also, ever since the conversation you and me had in this conversation, we we was having dinner, it was you, me, Noah, and Connor in that in that restaurant. And then you grilled me on like I shouldn't have booked my that trip to Dubai. Remember with my family? Tell me about that conversation. I flew myself out business class. I booked out a four bed penthouse in Dubai. I paid for like I paid for four family members to fly out to Dubai. I paid for everything and I just splashed out on a nice holiday. I went skin doing it. I went skin doing it. Yeah. So, you had a conversation with me saying you should just cancel the trip and I was like, you know what, you're right. But also, I've paid for it. I've also I also spent two and a half grand on an Andrew Tate fight ticket that I can't really get a refund on. And even if I didn't go, I couldn't get all my money back. So I was like, "Right, I've got to go ahead with it." So I did the whole obviously I enjoyed the holiday. Really enjoyed it. My family really enjoyed it. But then in my head it was like time to actually get serious and build wealth for myself.
And I've had loads of conversations with older people. And me 6 months ago would have called them boring, but me now would have been like, "Oh yeah, you're smart with money." You know, I think it's a balance. I think what you're doing is good now because you're saying I'm putting half of my money away and then I'm spending the other half. Yeah. I mean, what what I did was I had different accounts. I had six different accounts. So, I had my 50% was my necessities, a bit like what you're doing. And then I had 10% invest. I had 10% save. I had 10% invest into my education. I had 10% play, which would just be like, oh, I'm just going to absolutely go. I had 10% give. Oh, yeah. give away. So that's how I manage my money. So if I made a,000 pounds, I'm like, "Okay, cool. I'll put it." And I've got six little accounts, six bank accounts. But the problem is with a lot of people is they're either like you, big spender, where you'll make 10,000 from selling A COUPLE DEALS, GO AND SPEND IT. But then people people like that can end up being skint make money, spend it, and and then it's it's stressful. And then there's other people though that will make 10 grand and they'll save the whole thing or live live off 500 and drive a Honda and then the other nine invest. But that way you're you're almost in poverty mindset and you're in a scarcity mentality. So I think it makes sense to separate your money up. So I think what you're doing now is is much better.
Yeah, I've definitely learned from that week. Not just learn how to do deals, just learn how to actually manage money and manage um just manage life cuz also money is the way you live as well. You know, I think you need six bank accounts. I think you should have six not not I'm not saying HSBC lawyers under there have um different accounts within and then every time you receive money separate it up and then that way it's just and that way when you're spending money on play stuff you don't feel bad because that's what it's there for you know you can literally use it to get massages and go to concerts and do whatever you want just absolutely blow it 10% give that's important as well have you given any money away I have actually I I saw saw a friend doing he was doing like 100 push-ups a day challenge. I donated I only donated £20, but I've been donating to No, no, no, no, no, no, brother. But here's what I'm saying. I donated like 20 pound here and there to loads of different charities. So 10% now. Just put 10% and then every time you receive money, if you receive 10,000, put a,000 into that account and then that way it's just there. If it builds up, then bang cuz that also makes you feel so abundant. You know what I mean? Yeah. And it also means when you're doing business and you're selling deals in your back of your mind, you're thinking, I'm going to be give I know where some of this is going. It's almost like I wouldn't say it's magical, but when you when you have your hands open and you're and you and you give freely, you're also open to receive. So, I think being generous, it's great that you've been giving ad hoc. Yeah. 20 pound there, 100 pound there, 50 pound there. Ad hop. But if you actually put when you get paid, just put because another thing is some people can end up bankrupting themselves by being too generous. Oh yeah. Because and I've been guilty of this where I've got like, you know, £100,000 in the account. That's it. Oh, I want to build a school and it's going to cost me 110. You put everything into it and then and then you can't pay your own bills. Yeah. Mhm. But actually being when you manage your money properly and when you're faithful with what you've got, what happens is you structured to then be able to grow much bigger and scale. Does that make sense?
Tell me about your car then. Okay. Cuz you got a car but couldn't drive it. It's almost like being giving been given a check that you can't cash yet. Yeah. And I did that on purpose cuz you you've been trying to pass your test for almost a year now. Yeah. That's true. And I thought if I give you a car now, you're going to need to pass your test. And it worked. You did. Congratul Yeah. Thank Thank you. So, um, yeah, I got the car. I was driving it around. As I got a provisional license, I could drive it with a licensed passenger in the car. Yes, sure. So, I was driving it around with like my mom and stuff like that. I actually took the investor from the networking event up to Blackpool. Usually a trip from Chester's Blackpool take like one and a half hours. Took us three hours cuz we couldn't go on the motorways. So, took him up to Blackpool out. We did the viewing, went back. Really good car. Solid car. What I actually did, I got offered a Jeep Renegade at like quite a discounted price. It was worth like almost 10 grand. Got offered it at like seven and a half grand. Part kind of part exchanged it. So I kind of part exchanged a car. Yeah. Which I'm sorry about. Don't worry at all, man. It's good. I like it. I love to hear it. You You leveled up. Mhm. Yeah. So So the car I gave you, you gave away. You traded. You traded for it. I I I gave No, you didn't. So, hang on. That car that I got you, how much did that cost? I think that might have cost me about 3,000. How much did they get give you for it? Like 750. No, they didn't. No way. bro. You thought Did they do me over, mate? That car cost me 3,000. So, you parexed it and you got 750 for it? Oh, bro. And how? And then you had to pay the difference like almost seven grand. Yeah, bro. That is mad. I can't I would have negotiated a better deal. Oh, mate. What's What's the lesson? Sounded too good to be true. How did it sound? This would be true. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. The offer on the Jeep was too good to be true. As in they discounted it. I guess if they discounted that much, is it genuinely worth 10? Uh because you you thought that your car was worth 700 when it was worth three and thought their car was worth 10 when it was worth seven. Maybe maybe their car was worth eight. I need to get this car valued now. Yeah. Jeez, man. You got for moose, I think. How did you or maybe you overpaid? Maybe. Maybe I got for moose. To be fair, I didn't shop around. I bought that in a rush. Mhm. And maybe I bought it for about I think it was 3,000. So, how did you get the difference then? How did you pay the difference? So that 30bedroomedroom hotel we the one that we viewed in Blackpool that 30 bed I sold that for 12,000 sourcing fee. Wow. That wasn't We didn't do that together, did we? We didn't do that together. So that was over the time. So on that week when we had that conversation at dinner, he was telling me that I need to work like all the time. Yeah. After a week, I didn't stop. Yeah. I was going to Dubai, but I didn't stop. Like in Dubai, I was always making calls and stuff. I sold it when I was in Dubai on that holiday actually. No. Then he paid me six grand up front. Then after he viewed it and stuff, he gave me another six grand. So I had 12 grand. Just under seven of that was to buy the car. And then Why did you need to buy that new car? Why couldn't you have just used that car that was perfectly good? Because I know a lot of people that own Jeeps and I've always wanted to drive one of them. And then I got a good offer on it. Maybe that's me being silly. Oh, I think that was silly. You know what as well? You're 17. You're going to crash that Jeep so many times. And I already have. I was I was turning onto a main road. There was a brick wall. Literally. It' be better to crash the car. I got you. 3,000 car. That's a good first car. Yeah. I think I think that that was a mad decision, but I guess it is, you know, it is what it is. Yeah.
What's the plan now then? So, you've got the lease options, you got three hotels, you're making money from deal sourcing, good money from deal sourcing. You own your own property. You've got a mortgage on where you've got debt on that property now. How you going to pay that back? I'll just pay down that money. I'll just deal source it back. Yeah. I think I'll just sell a couple deals and I'll and I'll pay it back. Because we had a bit of an issue with that, didn't we? Which was that property you got bridging on through Samuel Le's Finance. Yeah. Which is fine. And it's not super expensive. I think is about 1% a month. Yeah. But on such a cheap house, the rent will cover, you know what I mean? So, it's fine. But the issue is for you to refinance it could be tricky because of your age. Yeah. So, and to get a buy to let mortgage nor have to be 21. So, what what's the plan then? Is it just to literally deal source the bridge off? Yeah. I can make 45 grand by deal sourcing especially after what we learn on that. And even if you can't, it's not a big deal. You're paying 1% a month. So, that the So, what are the monthly payments on that interest only? Like 450. And is it rented out yet? That property? Not yet. So there's always issues being under 18. So I because I I couldn't get building insurance on the property. Yeah. And I I can own a property in Scotland under 18, but I can't be allowed in Scotland under 18. I have to apply for a land alllord license, which I won't accept until my 18th birthday. Can't you do it on short stay less like service accommodation? I could, but that would mean I have to furnish it then. Which you can't bother to do because you're turning 18 later this month. If it was 6 months away, then yeah. But So, would you recommend a 17-y old buy a house or do you actually think it's better to just wait till you're 18 and it's just you're too young? I wouldn't recommend them do it because I want to be the youngest. No. No. Um but if you're if you were like teaching someone who's 16, would you say actually don't buy a house just yet? Wait till you're 18. Or would you say no man, get get one now? No, I'd tell them to get it. I'd tell them to get it like right now. Surely if they were 16 then they couldn't be a landlord till 18. Surely there surely there's another way around it there would you've not bothered to find a way around that little insurance thing because you're when are you turning 18? How long? In just under four weeks. So at the end of this month I turn 18 on the 27th of February. Okay. So you got a few weeks before you turn 18. But you could could you do it as short staylets if you if I wanted to. Yeah. But then you just furnish it and but you don't want to go down that route. I've got three weeks to wait. Really? Yeah. That makes sense.
So what's been the biggest takeaway for you then? The biggest lesson. Biggest lesson really was the conversation we had at dinner. Genuinely, you you didn't grill into me, but you did you wasn't grilling into me, but for my personality and the way I was acting, it was I was I felt like I was being grilled into, but I wasn't. So, that conversation as in not getting 10 grand and spending it. Do you think otherwise do you think you would have just all the money you're making, you would have just been spending it 100%. But now you're not. Now you're putting 50% of it aside, saving it up. Yeah. Because I obviously grew up in a world where I'm looking at social media. I see people making money and they go and splash out. But that's just social media where whereas a real life is is millionaire like you making a million pound a month, saving it, investing it, having nice things as well. Yeah. So I I deliberately try not to like h show that lifestyle. I know you you see my actual life and you know I live a good life, but I try not to have too much content with supercars and I don't wear fancy watches and stuff because I want people to actually listen to my message as opposed to just be wow by you know what I mean? Yeah. I think I think that's important. What made you fall into that trap then? Do you think social media or what was it? I think just growing up in the environment I was, it was always to be the best in the room, you have to be the loudest. So me obviously going business class and posting it. For me, I think I would have thought that looked really cool, but realistically, no one cares. No, no one cares. So, you know who care? Broke people. Yeah. And broke people aren't going to be your investors anyway. You know what investors care about? Investors care about what value you can bring. They care about who you are, what's in you. Not what's on you, what's in you. Yeah. And when you meet with investors now and they can see your experience, and they can the fact you've leveled up your skills, your game, your character, that's what people care about, not what you got. Mhm. Yeah. And I think you're learning that now. Yeah, I've learned that.
Also, I think working class, like I grew up workingass, you're working class. We spend what we have, don't we? Paycheck to paycheck, you get a bit of money. OH, LET'S OH, IT'S PAYDAY. LET'S TREAT OURSELVES. But you can't be like that when you're making. That's what keeps you in the system. It does. So, people get paid, say one and a half grand that night. Friday night, they go out Friday night, Saturday night, they've got £800 left and then they got £800 to live in on the month and then they complain about cost of living crisis. But it's their own Well, yeah, but also it's not not earning enough money. But then if you if you continue doing the same thing, no matter how much money you got, you can win the lottery and statistically you're going to lose all that money. If you don't fix the financial thermostat programmed within you, then that that then even if you get money given to you, you'll lose it. So I hope with yourself, I know it's early days, but I hope that you've clearly shown that you know how to make money now. You've clearly shown you know how to find good deals, spot good deals. You've clearly shown you got good work ethic. Mhm. Which is great. But now it's a case of just making sure that you can continue, how would you say this? Now it's important to remember to see your character growth to show that actually, you know what, you you're you're going to protect your reputation with your life. You're going to obsess over your investors. You're going to obsess over your customers. Um and and and not try and show off on social media, but actually try and build really good long-term relations with your investors. Cuz another thing is as well, Kane, that investor that partnered with you on that hotel deal, I don't know him, but guaranteed if it goes well in a year's time, he'll want to do another one. Yeah. 100%. Mhm. So, when you've got a good reputation, what happens is you can do business with the the same people again and again and again and again. You know what I'm saying? Yeah.
So, what's the plan then? What's the plan? 2026, we've just entered a new year. The plan finalize everything that we did on that week. obviously finalize on the hotel, the third hotel, get that up and ready, but I've got business partners and that can all be sorted. And the plan is to scale on hotels. Plan is to buy more properties similar to the ones in Scotland. Maybe well obviously after I turn 18, I can buy in England so I can look around and shop around in places cheap like Grimby. I get small little buylet houses and then that's just that's just this year. just build actual wealth and actual assets instead of spending money on things.
Do you think you do you think you'll ever ever work a job again? No, never. I couldn't. Have you ever worked a job? No, never in my life. You were 17. But I feel like the reason I didn't work a job is because at 14, 15 years old, I was watching like your videos. Yeah. So I always wanted to change my mindset. So I'd watch you when I was 14. Then because I started at such a young age, I I did I set up my first business at 13. I set up my first profitable business at 14. I made 30 grand at 14, which is nothing, but it's good for a 14y old. And then um I dropped out of school before anybody else could work jobs my age. So yeah, I don't think I'll work it.
What does your family think about what what you've done? What did you what Obviously, I spent time with your with your uh grandparents. What am I saying? My nana's always just blown away, but she's also she's the type of person who is proud of me, but she's always just waiting like as in if I ever needed anything, she's like there, of course. But she don't care about what you have. She cares about who you are. Same as your investors. Mhm. Yeah. If I went to work a job, my nana would be be the same. Yeah. Yeah, of course you like obviously obviously all my family are proud of me and I'm the only one in the family that does business for myself and makes my own money my own way. But um yeah know my family were just blown away by it. Especially when you turned up at the house.
Can I see a picture of the car then that you got? Yeah. Oh dear. I mean it's very nice but bro and you crashed already. Yeah. Should I show you the crash? Yeah. Show me the crash. So, you bought it for seven and a half because you thought it was 10, but actually it was eight and a half, but now it really is seven and a half cuz you crashed it. You didn't get that fixed. Yeah, eventually.
All right. There was three pretty intense moments that I remember. You We've spoke about the one which was over the dinner. Yeah. The second one was the sales when I was trying to encourage you to get some deals over the line. Tell me about that. What What happened? So, I had a couple calls and they didn't go well. And you was just coaching me on how to what to say, how to say it, what tone to say it in, perfect my actual script. And then, was I too much? Was I getting too in like cuz I was I was kind of passionate and I was shouting and was that too much at first? you you wasn't mean too much. You was just coaching me. And then I started stuttering and you kept saying the same thing like five, six times, seven times. And I was like, I feel bad that I can't do it, but I'm also overthinking that I can't do it. And then I started stuttering. I l couldn't get a sentence out. I I couldn't even speak to you properly. I was you were telling me to repeat what you were saying. I can't even repeat the sentence you've just told me to say a second ago. I was like, right, can I just go to the toilet for 5 minutes? and then ended up going to the toilet. Then I thought I'll sit out in outside area. I'll take away what you've just told me. I make my own phone calls and then I made a sale right with what you told me. So, but in the moment it was overwhelming. Yeah. Because I was just I was just thinking about everything other than what I needed to do.
Did you Did you Did you feel like quitting at that point? No, I've never felt like quitting. You just needed time out. just need a time out. Yeah, that's called a state change. Just like, look, man, I need to just change my state for a minute. I I do this a lot. If I'm working on something or I'm trying to I'm trying to stack a deal and I'm I'm just getting a mental blank. I just say, you know what, let me go and walk. Yeah. Going to walk 10 minutes, 15 minute, come back, start again, which is what you did, which is fine.
What about what what do you make of that viewing really bad where you where you smashed that guy's plates and that whole awkwardness, the shoes? Like, what do you make about that? That was Was that your fault? I didn't really do anything wrong. All right. Yeah, everyone else took their shoes off and I didn't. But realistically, I didn't do anything wrong. I was just doing Oh, I don't think you did. He asked me hundreds of questions and I answered them all correctly. Never said anything wrong. He He was asking me what happens in parties. He's asking me if I go out to nightclubs. I'm answering him professionally and correct me. All right. Yeah, the plate smashed. I was just checking for the fuse box. What about the shoes as well? because he did say take shoes off. I I didn't see that you hadn't. But like why do you think that was like what happened there? I just didn't hear him. I was probably Do you think you were just super focused on you walked in it was such a nice property. I was like yeah this is perfect. It was so nice that you thought you know what I'm not going to take my shoes off. I felt really sorry for you if I'm honest because the shoe thing fine. He was asking a lot of questions. Then when the plates smashed, it totally wasn't your fault. Whoever stacked those plates, it was that was a setup, wasn't it? That was some stitch up thing because if I'd have opened the thing, you know what I mean? I just I just I just felt really bad for you. Um but I quickly left and got some cash cuz the guy looked quite tough to me anyway. So I was like, I don't want to have a confrontation. He's wearing black gloves as well. You know what I mean? Yeah. Some crazy uh some crazy morning. Did it Did it help you at all? Did it kind of give you the if that's happened, you know what? You know, like when it's raining and you're like, "Oh, I don't want to get wet." And you get so wet, you just think, "You know what? Whatever." Yeah. Do you think it might have even helped you cuz you got to the point where you're just like, "I'm already wet. Whatever." Yeah. Literally. Mhm. Yeah. Cuz because straight away we got in the car, I was like, "You know what? If that that's got to be the worst thing that happens today." Yeah. Today is only going to get better. Yeah. And then so Can't get any worse than that. Can't get any worse than that. They might reject me. They might say no to my offer, but I'm definitely not going to smash up their cutlery. And you know, it's fine. There's no light without rain. That this is Andrew take, isn't it? There's no joy without pain. Yeah. No darkness without light. You've you've experienced the bad. You've experienced the awkwardness. Now it's time to get some deals, which and that we did.
So, what message would you want to leave to people that might have watched your journey that might be interested in starting a business, stepping out, they haven't been handed anything on a plate? You weren't handed anything on a plate. Yes, I spent time. Some people say that, "Oh, Kane's only successful because Samuel helped him do it." Yeah, but you paid to be part of the academy with a loan in your nana's name. Like, you you you stepped. Yeah, of course I helped you because you invested in my education company. So, yeah, a lot of people just sit on the sofa and expect an opportunity to happen to them. I mean, they'll make they'll try and discredit you. Oh, it's all right for Kane because But actually, you had no money. I mean, when we met, you were 16. You had no money. You just recovered or just were recovering from cancer on the back end of chemotherapy. Working class, didn't know what anything was about property. You hadn't heard of Right Move when we met. Yeah. I mean, yes, you had entrepreneurial skills and you done you'd done stuff at school and you'd made a bit of money doing side hustles at school, so you had that fire and that gifting, but you're about as self-made as you can get. Mhm. Is it true? So, and no one's Arnold Schwarzenegger says this, no one's self-made. Everyone's I'm where I am because of people that have helped me and but they've helped me because I've put myself I've positioned myself in the right place. Zo, what message would you say to someone watching this that's wanting to get into business, make more money, escape the matrix, get out of their job? What would what advice would you give them? My message is getting get into the right rooms with all the people doing what you want to do. So, it's kind of like if I want to own a Lamborghini, I'm not going to sit back and not if I wanted to own like a Lamborghini, I'm not just going to just work really hard and stay in my own corner. I'm going to go and try speak to people that own Lamborghini, see what they do. You know what I mean? So, if people want to get into property, you'd go to a property networking event, speak about property, hear about property. Yeah. If you want to do anything in your life, you should make it your entire life and make your entire personality of it. Like when I was first come to your crash courses and stuff, that's the only thing I was speaking about. Wake up, scroll right, move, get in the shower, get out, think about property, speak about property, go to school, speak about property. get kicked out of a lesson, tell my teacher about property. I was my entire life was property. So, my advice is just fill your environment with what you want to do in life.
