Get Invested: How John Mihailidis became a self-made millionaire

John Mihailidis is the Founder of Project My Profit - an online program teaching people how to build real wealth investing in stocks. He’s on a mission to inspire others to build real wealth over time by investing in stocks based on his own personal success in becoming a self-made millionaire. In 2006, for the very first time, John picked up a book about investing by Warren Buffett, and read it cover to cover. By the time he finished that book he was inspired to become just like Warren and build wealth by investing in stocks so he could retire early and live financially free. In just 12 years as a self-taught investor he’s been able to make over $4 million running his own family fund. When you talk with John the first thing you notice about him is his genuine humility, and down to earth nature. John’s not a flashy millionaire that let his wealth go to his head, he’s just a guy who describes himself as an every day Aussie that's really passionate about building wealth with stocks.  So why is John so passionate?  Because he’s cracked the code and developed a simple formula that works. His investment strategy has stood the test of time and continued to work for him and his family consistently for over a decade. What I love about John is that unlike a lot of investors who are polarised as property ‘or’ share investors, John is an ‘AND’ investor – it is not property or shares, its property and shares – he has embraced both at different stages of his wealth journey. He has created multiple income streams on his way to his current lifestyle using his businesses to leverage into property to build his nest egg, and now using shares and other investments to fund his ongoing lifestyle – and we talk about all of this during today’s deep dive conversation. If you’d like to get a copy of John’s ebook dedicated to Warren Buffett, just listen carefully and then email [email protected] with the name of the Warren Buffett book that John recommends along with the number of pages he mentions it contains during our engaging conversation.
