700: How Rob Dyrdek Fits Family, Real Estate, and $100M Businesses into His Day

from BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast · host BiggerPockets

Rob Dyrdek is one of the most well-known pro skaters, entrepreneurs, and media figures of all time. He essentially owned the MTV lineup for years with hit shows such as Rob & Big, Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory, and Ridiculousness. At first glance, Rob may look like a phenomenal skater who turned his passion into something profitable. But behind the half pipes is an almost unbelievable amount of discipline, wisdom, and time optimization that only a select few know about. Rob, like many entrepreneurs, ditched school early on when he realized that his talents were best used elsewhere. He left high school at sixteen, went on to compete in the highest level of skateboarding, and started his first company at seventeen. He was bringing in millions of dollars a year at an age where money is almost incomprehensible. Rob was fueled by creation, starting dozens of businesses that were doing millions in revenue but weren’t making a financial difference in his life. So, he took a high-level view of what was worth keeping and cut out everything but that. From then on Rob began investing down two major avenues—businesses and real estate. Most people who follow Rob know about the former, but very few know about the latter. Now, Rob’s on the show to help us celebrate the 700th episode of the BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast and show us how we too can make millions of dollars by tracking every minute of our day as intelligently as possible.  In This Episode We Cover: Becoming an entrepreneur and Rob’s earliest business ventures Why quantity over quality is key when building businesses and brands Real estate syndications and why Rob will only touch a certain type of property The “soul-sucking” landlord life and why it is NOT for everyone Rob’s recession-proof plan that will make him millions even as investing fear peaks Tracking your life and how doing so will make you richer and happier almost automatically Building your financial framework and how so many doors open after you do so And So Much More!
