Quotes:
“We have something here what we call the circle of wealth. The circle of wealth is where we want to educate people first. That’s what my info marketing business is. It’s about educating people in the right ways to invest in real estate, the right types of real estate to invest in.” – Lee
“I do predict that we’re going to start seeing real estate values dropping. I’m seeing more and more realtors sending out these $10,000 price drop emails. This is happening all over the nation from what I’m seeing.” – Lee
“The job of fund managers is not to foresee the future but to prepare for different conditions. If you can prepare for the good, the bad, and the ugly, that helps you quite a bit, no matter what happens.” – Mike
