Quotables
“You have to be cognizant of the fact that the market’s changing, it’s shifting. Is that a bad thing? No, it’s a good thing if you’re positioned for opportunities.”
“It gave me what I call optionality. That’s what you want in your life and the sooner you can get that, the sooner your life can change and you can finally do what you want to do.”
“If you don’t like where you are, look at your environment, who you’re hanging out with, and change that.”
“Learn through other people. This is not rocket science, you don’t have to go to school to get an MBA in Finance or Commercial Real Estate. You could do this yourself, with other people, and that’s the best way to go.”
