The Total Wealth Academy Podcast
The Total Wealth Academy radio show is about much more than just using real estate to make more money. Real wealth includes all the parts of a balanced life: fitness, family, romance, charity, fun, travel, and, of course, money. Host Steve Davis started with bad credit and no money and ended up invested in over 4000 single-family and apartment units. He did this while maintaining above-average fitness, a 33-year marriage, raising two outstanding children, and simply living life to the fullest. He will show you how you can do this too using real estate to build passive streams of income. Steve and his team of mentors, who will be his guests on the show occasionally, have over 50 years of experience teaching people how to achieve their dreams through investing in real estate. Their one-on-one mentoring and consulting are second to none.

Ep. 9 - It Doesn't Work, Stop It
Monday Jan 27, 2020
Monday Jan 27, 2020
Welcome back to the show faithful listeners! Ok, so we want you to know that the "work and save" method has not been working for people EVERYWHERE for hundreds of years. It just hasn't and if you doubt it, all you have to do is look at the people around you who brought you up telling you that it did and check their results. Are those people financially independent or at the level of wealth that you want to be when you are their age? This is today's topic and Steve wants you to know that just because it has been tried 100 times before, you don't have to be the 101 iteration of the failing cycle. Here are the notes!Is everyone Insane? Are they stupid?Breaking the generational cycleListener Email: The Rental Real Estate Sweet SpotOUR FIRST CALLER! or What do I do now that I've done everything right?Listener Email: Whole-selling: How do I get out of this 60 hour work week?Listener Email: The tenant and the light bulbShow Topic RecapWe hope you enjoy our show.
